This thread is awfully close to the aok's 19 starting hands argument. Do we want to follow a formula "make sets, get paid" or do we want to attack every single edge that we find to learn the most about poker that we can?

If a lagtard villain makes 1/2 PSB on the river for value, is a PSB call really a hero call? I see a lot of players at 50NL that get value betting, and get pushing someone off a hand, but they don't connect the gap between the two ideas.
