How many of the world class player do you know that are actually Stats. guys. Also I was awful poker player when I actually believe that alpha 1 defense crap. Make you play super robotic in a static way call or fold depending on pot odds
i agree these toy problems are impractical and unpossible. they are far from acutal poker which is a billion times more complex with a ton more varaibles and considerations. a completely different approach to learning is necessary to improve (grinding pio as u suggested is way superior to studying toy problems). maybe learning these toy problems will even hinder one's own judgement on river decisions.
but im just trying to understand these human made strategic terms given to some concepts that i kinda understand. i can analyze and learn about these concepts in a vacuum without the influence of the other complex varaibles through simple toy problems.
i'm not as advanced in my understanding as many. even if u think ur not either, u probably intuitively understand better than all but the 3 or so names u named u wouldn't play huhu. it sucks (as a mortal, not as a LHE God) to dive right into complex stuff and not understand the simple building blocks. But maybe ur right... an agile approach is better and fix as you go.
