In fact, this discussion reminds me of a succinct bit of Sklanksy wisdom (cannot recall source) in wich he castigates 2+2'ers for obsessing over intersting but rare hands at the expense of more common situations.

While i agree that Dcfrthis's analysis as well as mine are far from accurate and actually it needs a millions of simulations and very good read on players to find decision close to perfect in vacuum (not including image, timing etc..). No one here pretend to be perfect with his estimation. The reason of such topics is to collect the opinions of good players and weigh for yourself - which one arguments you trust more.
I disagree that rare situations in poker aren't worth discussing much. In standart situations most players play good especially at high stakes. Avoiding simple mistakes is the task for beginners. No one discuss them here cause it's boring and they often don't worth much (though they occur often). If everyone plays good in standart say 90% of poker situations - from what do you think big part of EV comes? I think it comes from the last 10% of rare situations and mistakes there cost you much more if you really don't care how to handle them.
