Here's the question, and after the thread gets going, I'll give my comments - what is the difference between an advanced player, an expert player, and a World Class player?

After Claus's eloquent response, what more is there to add?

Does it really matter? I have played against worldclass players on BBO that I guess forgot that there r 13 trumps in a suit. And I also have played against intermediates that really handle the cards great. I generally can tell after few hands how good a player is. And about 90% of the time it is not what there Stats say ;)

An "Advanced" player is an advanced player whio knows he's an advanced player.

An "Expert" player is an advanced player who doesn't realise he is just an advanced player.

A "World Class" player is a beginner who is having a joke.

There may be a few exceptions to this, but not many. ;)
