What is your knowledge based on Baltostar if you don't mind me asking?
[/ QUOTE ]
Based on following (in descending order of importance) :
1. logical independent thinking
2. reading 1000s of hands on these boards and realizing detrimental patterns of good players
3. 10 years experience as a highly successful trader
4. extensive study of most of the poker literature
5. playing multi-100s of online STTs and MTTs
6. 5 years experience successful pedigree handicapping
7. student of risk-analysis, probability, mathematics at top-tier universities and independently
8. experience successfully coaching others in sports which they are better than me
But you should never listen to anyone based on their credentials. You should always break-down what they are saying into logic elements and question whether it really works.
Yeah, Raymer is a very good player, yeah Raymer won the WSOP, but when he says "I'm not good enough to pass up any EV+ opportunity" you have to forget his credentials and really think hard if that is logically justified thinking.
