Gergery is Good at Poker

I agree with this, as evidenced by, for example, the original post in this thread.

I can't for the life of me figure out why he runs that site. He may get a few rakeback deals out of it, but he's singlehandedly drying up the fishpond and making the games tougher to play. Hundreds of beginners go through that site and quickly become scoopmonkeys and stop losing. Advice/discussion on 2+2 is one thing, but having a ready made, detailed guide just seems silly.

This such a myth, and a pet peeve of mine. Putting information out there does not make the games harder, it makes them juicier.

Here's an example, if you listen to the commentary of the WSOP, there is a lot of good advice, yet all these guys you watch it on TV try to play like that SUCK!!!

I actually checked out the site again today for some reason. I haven't been to it in a while. Their is a juicy nugget of info that used to be on there that I assume still is. I didn't check today to see if it still is. It caused a few discussions on the board awhile back. It concerened raising A4xx ( cant rmember exactly) pre flop. Over the last year I have thought and thought on this and tried it in different situations. After a year I now use this play with the right side cards, position and number of people in the pot and type of players I face. This concept is valuable with many other hands.Like I said it has taken me a year to realize the value of that one little statement but it is golden if used right. The rest of the site sucks.

Just Kidding Gerg. The site does not suck.
