Favorite NON-SSNL posts.

[Pokey]

I was reading uNL and saw a link Tien had to a post from MTT by Jason Strasser. It was *wonderful*, and it applies amazingly well to our community. In seeing that post, I was reminded of all the fantastic non-SSNL posts I've seen over my time here, and I figured that I've missed oodles more than I've ever found.

So, I came up with this thread idea: everybody post links to your favorite NON-SSNL forum posts. These should be high-content threads. Maybe it's a great psych forum post about the minds of our opponents; maybe it's a fantastic HSNL hand thread that had genius comments; maybe it's a STT post that applies perfectly to cash game NL; maybe it's a limit post that is theoretical enough to mesh well with our game. Whatever it is, include it here, so we can all share in the knowledgy goodness.

My contributions:

1. Step into the tee box. Jason's wonderful golf metaphor for why we need to worry less about adjusting to bad players and more about improving our game.

2. Evolving. MLG's absolutely CLASSIC post on the stages of a poker player's career. Personally, I'm a confuzzled who thinks he's a leaper. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

3. Holy <shizzle> what did I do.... Whenever I feel bad about a bad beat, I just look back at CaptZEEbo's $90k loss in 27 minutes and POOF! perspective is returned to me.

4. The damn fish!!!!! Joe Tall's loose game rant is second-level humorific. Edutainment, baby!

Great idea Pokey!!!

Gotta add Gigabet's Almost There with Success and Failure.


I use to be a SNG player and the STT forum use to be filled with amazing posts everyday. Haven't been there for awhile but this post was about the best.

Opening Up Your Eyes and Your Game

Strassas golf metaphor is dead on with the mindset of a lot of SSNLer's. We find our comfort zone and don't want to venture too far away. Taking shots regularily after a good day of playing my regular limit sounds like a good cure for breaking the comfort zone.

This one has a lot of SSNL All-stars posting in it. AJ Fenix gives an excellent definition and discussion of Sklansky bucks.
