And I didn't jump to any conclusions, I use to play poker tournaments twice a week in the past.
Another point is that the blog offers horrible financial advice. He even recommends skipping over having a solid emergency fund so you can go play faster.
I didn't say the post couldn't be here, I said it was irresponsible to put it here. |
GOOD poker is a game of math, statistics and psychology.
If you know the statistics and the theory, and you can sense what range of cards your opponents have (and of course if you can make yourself ditch a hand that you know you'll lose on) you WILL win in the long run.
If you play it right, it's NOT about luck.
