where's abstract reasoning, pattern recognition, and statistics analysis in this? i don't think poker is anywhere new 95% math, unless you play 20bb or something.
150bb hu is 20% math at most, if i had to guesstimate.
in fact, i would say that 'poker 95% math' is a more ridiculous, and untrue, statement than 'there is no variance in poker if you don't suck'.
