...but 0.05 bets isn't even a very small mistake.

I disagree. It wouldn't even be a big mistake if you lost .5 BB's with this call. It just doesn't happen often enough.

you can say the same about any situation in poker. justifying making a mistake by saying you're not going to make it often is just stupid. it's still a mistake.

i'm not going to have the opportunity to cap 32o on a KQJ9 board after bluff-raising and getting 3-bet very often either. that still doesn't make it a very small mistake.

You make a valid, articulate argument. We'll just agree to disagree. I believe capping 32o on a KQJ9 board after...blah blah blah is a miniscule mistake compared to 3-betting medium PP's with two overcards on the flop. You'll get the chance to make the mistake in your scenario once a year maybe - when you are extremely intoxicated. But you get the chance to misplay medium PP's perhaps a dozen times per session.
