Poker requires domination for success. You cannot be a submissive player and expect to win. If you defer to the other players, you will lose your chips, no matter how good your cards are. Without a forceful and agressive personality, the best hands are still trash. If you want to win, you have to become a power man.
What is a power man? Well, you know who Super Man is, right? Power Man is like him, but instead of being the guardian of Metropolis, he's a megalomaniacal jerk. Instead of using his plethora of super powers to protect and serve those around him, Power Man uses them for one thing and one thing only: his own personal gain.
That's how you need to act at the poker table. You want to use everything at your disposal in the most ruthless and aggressive manner to get what you want. You need to give no quarter and allow no leeway. Your opponents are there to be destroyed: there is no room for concern or sympathy.
Play poker like you are Power Man, and don't let your opponents have a moment of rest.
