I had an uncle of mine say that ranging your opponents in poker was like counting cards in blackjack.

I mean, ranging your opponents in poker in a way is like counting cards in blackjack, meaning that you apply math-based heuristics to win in a gambling game. I actually often use that analogy when explaining strategic aspect of poker, as more people are familiar with blackjack card counting than poker strategy

You can make a living at it by playing 2/5 or below if you ‘put in the work’..

I think this has to win. Interesting they don’t talk about her background on the front page there. She seems so qualified, I don’t know why they wouldn’t mention it.

"Let's put in a bet line around the table to end arguments and angle shooting, then, even better, we wont enforce it, ever. We'll make up this idea about 'forward motion' counting instead, which negates the whole point of the bet line!!!!! This will be such a great idea"

Either have a f-n bet line or don't.

People should be able to do whatever they want behind the line and the other guy should have the discipline to wait until the guy's chips cross the line before responding. Otherwise, the bet line is useless. Are we watching for forward motion or the bet line? Which is it? The line makes me think it matters, but in practice, it doesnt.

Just realize NOTHING matters if the chips are not over the line.
Dont muck, dont show, dont start to show, just wait. It's not that hard. Make the guy feel stupid for doing a chip or card dance behind the line while you just sit there waiting.

'forward motion' would never be a thing if idiots could just wait until the bet crosses the line and then the bet line would actually matter.

I dont angle shoot, but the amount of arguments over people mistakenly responding before the chips are over the line makes my head hurt. When it's not my action, I just sit with my hands not near my cards and wait until the chips or cards are over the line. No forward motion will get me to react. Is this that hard for others to do too?

Make the line real!

you should play AK over AA because AA is just a pair, whereas AK can make two pair or a straight!
