... just as the first time you sit down at a table on line with a dope starting hand list, you still suck. You're abs right -- it comes in stages... and for most people it starts with making the first decision correctly -- PF hand selection based on position. If they don't, they'll p!ss away way more money just getting that first step straight....
Big PF hands make for the easiest decisions post-flop, and if you only ever play TT+ or set-hunt you're post-flop skills gonna stunt out real quick. Evidence -- the pack of set-hunters at FR ... many making money, few learning great poker, and almost none would not have the sh!t exploited out of them later on...
At some point you gotta get good a post-flop... period.
That's actually one of the reasons I flipped to 6max for a bit. I see way more situations, get the oppty to play far more hands post- and in thinner spots than FR... I'm finding it a much better place in the micros for improving post-flop.
