and god can we please quit the "you online 24 table robots better learn how to think through hands" bull **** to a minimum. I haven't made one critical comment about a live player and how their lack of experience both in quantity of play and time against competent opponents should impact their analysis of these situations. it isn't relevant to the discussion. If i'm wrong then it doesn't matter whether the person who proves me wrong has never played one hand, or is durrrrr, I'm still wrong. And same if I'm right.
the only thing that matters in this situation is if guys with a ton of live experience say that without a read they tend to put most tagfish into certain standard expected categories for plays and ranges. But the only person I saw do that was DGAF who basically bolded my point/question in my last post to say that yeah based on his perception of most TAGfish would not check a good hand here twice.
so tired of the live vs online BS. wish everyone would stop being so insecure.
Also, somewhere itt limon signs off on the line in hand 1 as well, and he doesn't seem spewy in the slightest...
And yeah, poker players (especially live, where sample sizes are lol and variance is king due to the snail like pace) are the most insecure bunch I can think of. Everyone thinks everyone else is bad, can't be a winning player, etc. Every tag thinks every lag is just an aggro fish, and every lag thinks every tag is just a heartless nit... It's pretty telling imo of how important confidence is to playing poker (even if it means generating false confidence by auto-discounting the abilities of everyone around you), and it's so prevalent in the forums. My personal favorites are the guys who flame every line/analysis, but NEVER provide their own line/analysis. cantweallgetalongrant/
