Re: Pooh Bah Post : What matters, What doesn\'t
I think a little addendum should be added to the "tough decisions" section, saying that that instead of trying to figure out what the best play is in that spot, you should be trying to figure out how to avoid the tough decision in the first place.

[ QUOTE ]
3. Marginal situations. You will run into lots and lots of marginal situations. You could fold almost every one of them and it wouldn't hurt your win rate that much. On the other hand, it's very easy to make a big mistake in a marginal situation, and that will hurt your win rate a lot!! This is sort of like a reverse implied odds situation. It's almost never bad to just be a wuss in these spots unless you do that too much. A lot of people are scared of being "weak" or "easy to run over", but that's not really a problem unless someone starts trying to do it, in which case you can try to trap them. [/ QUOTE ] this is something I really need to work on. I always take everything personally and think people are making moves on me. A lot of the time they are just playing a big hand. Great post

Unfortunaltely, since it was tl and I dr, I missed this at the end: [ QUOTE ] (synopsis for the tl;dr crowd : stop worrying about trivial details that don't affect your win rate much; fix your big leaks and play solid) [/ QUOTE ] Just kidding. If it hasn't already been linked in the list, I'll do so now...

Re: Pooh Bah Post : What matters, What doesn\'t
Ty cbloom, excellent post.
O/T - did you finish/release your .exe hand converter? looks like your hand posts use it, I think, but I have not seen a link to it... dave.
