Re: The Freakonomics of Tournaments: A Preview (74s UTG at final table
Nice post. Seriously. I have issue with one thing:
[ QUOTE ]
Would his results improve if he isolated the 10 'bad' plays like the 74s hand, and eliminated them? Sure, can he actually do that? No. So, he is better off making them all.
[/ QUOTE ] I think Nath can eliminate the poor decisions and keep the good ones, and if he did, he could move up into the realm of the adanthars and the stevepas and the harringtons and all of that. If not, he will be stuck with being good but not great. And what I noticed in his replies was this lack of critical self-evaluation which is necessary for moving up to the next level. His attitude was, basically, "I did it, I'm a good player, [censored] you if you don't like it." Even after 140 posts in which almost no good player said it was a good play, nath is still saying it's a good play.
