sad but true....but nevertheless....being a slave to stats is a sure fire way to becoming 'dead money'

funny watching that guy reraise with 10/10 tonight against Sammy's A/10 to a A/A/10 flop and bet the ranch going out the first hand....lmao

I just hate the idea of a computer program pointing out my 'leaks' with certain hands when every single situation is different.
That hand ruled. Then the guy went over to Tobey Maquire and started bitching like a pansy. What the hell is spiderman gonna do? Did you see the guy who raised like 20xBB preflop with AA? Sammy just smiled and called with 33 before hitting a set and busting him. Classic moment.

Rippy, I couldn't agree with you more. I'm not a big advocate of becoming a hold em math slave. Math was my best subject in school, but I still despise hold em math. Even Fnord the hold em math genius admitted that as you learn more about hold em, you become less and less dependant on the math. Each situation becomes it's own. Take the hold em route of instinct, and you'll learn the right way. Make no mistake about it. The best poker players in the world are improvisational by nature.

If computer programs could make you a winning player, then everyone who used one would be winning.
