Default Re: HSP Ep. 6- What is the read on Gold?

When will people realize he doesn't even really know what value bets, fold equity, and the like even are?

I mean...he doesn't even consider it. He just plays by the seat of his pants. horribly, I might add.

I would venture to say that there a decent number of competent live players that don't fully understand concepts like fold equity or have even heard of the terms or math behind it. I doubt most of the best players 40 years ago really considered that stuff explicitly. But people who have played a decent amount and have an intuitive sense for prob/stat stuff will pick this stuff up w/o reading Sklansky.
