Re: Talking about 2+2 at the table.
Like others, I don't think mention of 2+2 is giving away family secrets. As an example, I primarily lurk here, with only minimal posts. I try to follow the strategy posts and have read some books, but for me, poker is a hobby, not a lifestyle or profession. As Clint Eastwood said, a man's got's to know his limitations - most people lack the dedication, inclination, and patience to really improve their games, even if they're staring the tools in the face.
The biggest risk of people learning of 2+2 is not that they'll improve their game. Rather, after visiting here, the fish may learn how little they actually know, and see the disdain with which they are viewed by hard-core players, and be tempted to take up checkers instead of poker.
Cheers, Carl.
