Small Stakes No-Limit Hold’em

let's find out if poker players tend to have certain personality types?

I'm not sure you can generalize to this extent. 

Mostly, because the people that will participate here, and on 2+2 are not a representative sample of poker players.

I would think that the NT types would show up much more among the readers of poker books, and participants of poker forums.

The N's are looking for patterns and theoretical information, and the T's are processing information by thinking about it, rather than reacting emotionally.  Moreover, the J types are more interested in the big picture than how they got there.  And the I's are think then act, rather than act, then think.

Frankly, the "feel" players aren't going to show up reading books, or posting on forums.  The "math" players are.

That's why you probably see INTJ types at a higher rate than in the general populace, or even a higher rate than their distribution among poker players.

–Just an INTJ looking for a pattern.

INTJ (being on the borderline to INFJ by the way). Still I think weasel made a very (!!) good estimation of why it might be wrong to generalize the results of 2+2 for the whole "poker community" (in and outside the forums).

INTJ for me too…  Big surprise (NOT)

If I had had to pick one forum member and guess his/her type then it would have been you being INTJ, LOL!

I came flat out as an ENTP. Well, not flat out. said slight on E and moderate on other three, guess I'm wishy-washy?

NE way, didnt' say if this would make me suck at poker or not. I suspect the stakes you play and live vs. online could influence their profitibality attributes at said games.

Good posts. I read the synopsis on my type and both the good parts and bad parts were pretty on,,almost scary on a couple of them,
