I have. Again, if "Good" is >= 7BB/100 Hands NET (of rake), then so far I am > Good using 19 Hand.

I'm not making AOK's argument for him, I'm just kicking in all the holes in yours. There's plenty to criticize 19 Hand about, just get off your damned high horse while doing it. Or better yet, take me up on my challenge and write a post that is helpful. I've pat you on the back for the post you linked us earlier, but if you want to be truly helpful (which I assume you do judging by the amount of time you spend kicking 19 Hand) then do more than post a Quick-chart of rules-of-thumb.
