Poker is a game of accidents

Interesting post, but the biggest thing I took from it is that you played a "bukkake style"... gross

Jason,

Have you read bruiser's hooker trip report in OOT?

All --

Shaniac comes in this thread and says "yawn" at Jason's post. Shaniac's blog is awesome but the dude routinely makes basic punctuation errors.

Cool parallel, no?

You know those posts say very different things, right?

What I got from this is reinforcement that as a player I should be careful of what I learn via practice, because the "true"(long term) causality between an action/a strategy and its profitability in a situation is obfuscated by luck.

Would you agree that the implication in learning/playing poker is to be careful as I said above, and also perhaps that "book" learning of poker principles via books, discussions, message boards...can be beneficial in a way that gets right to the correct strategy since it is seemingly devoid of results blurring perception?

ML4L,

I liked your post at any rate. Good analogy with Tommie Frazier.

If the LAG beats the TAG, and the TAG beats the LAG, who wins when a LAG plays a TAG? This is like saying: when your opponent plays loose you should tighten up, and when your opponent plays tight you should loosen up. This advice means that both the loosie and the tightie are playing "correctly" against one another. It's circular argumentation and makes no sense. What beats "LAG" is slightly less LAG play, and what beats TAG is slightly less TAG. You should open up your game when your opponent is either playing too loose OR too tight. Goldmund

Once you start playing against a pool of regular players, the game becomes simply who can adjust to who faster, much like an average HU match. Whoever re-adjusts to their opponent first, wins. If someone is playing to tight (TAG), the LAG will run him over. If someone is playing too loose (LAG), the TAG will keep snapping him off until something breaks.
