It goes for anything in life of where discipline can be applied. You can't just turn discipline on and off when you want to. You either have it or you don't. I would love to know what his actual solo career was and how he built up his bankroll. I can bet you it wasn't that great and he built up his bankroll like every other so called "Famous AP", which would be TEAM PLAY/INVESTORS, etc. It's not that hard to have entries in OSN. Just spread big, bet big, and play dumps. It means nothing to the actual skill of a counter. Some of these guys even try to use that to justify whatever bullshit story they wanna tell, but I'm not gonna name anyone. It fools the naive players who never counted. I'm still waiting to find one counter that has a verified solo history from nothing to minimum six figures. KJ seems to be the guy that kinda fits the bill, but I'm not gonna sign off on that, when no ones ever met him. He claims like 1 or two people off some others forums or whatever, but eh. His story seems reasonable and doable once I figured out a small detail about how he plays, but it's one thing to say it on paper about how you approach the game, your rotation of stores, and sounding like an expert, but it's another thing to actually DO it. Most gamblers and wannabe counters usually have at least one piece of the puzzle missing to be successful. Those variables are discipline, skill, critical thinking, and bankroll.
I disagree. I for instance have no self-control when I have chocolate sitting around. Yet I'm far from fat. Your model of self-control being all or nothing doesn't track. Fat people just love their food more. Thats how it is with most addictions. They are not all equivalent.

Good to hear a legit gambler vouching for Kewl. He appreciates the support.

If you succeed at counting at a high level then you're going to be able to succeed at a lot of things. It just really isn't that appealing to take on as a profession. Like .. there are plenty of hustles out there you could do better at without the stress. Especially if you're willing to give up the best hours of the week to entertain.
