But what I DO care about is one thing: One of the main things that separates this forum from other poker forums, and that has separated it for as long as I've been posting here, is that we have less trolls. Less people being douches in threads, and responding condescendingly to people that may or may not know better than them. There's honestly been too much of it in this thread and other threads as well.

This is the beginner's forum. People are here to learn. People WILL be wrong. People WILL know less than you at times. People WILL have trouble understanding some concepts. Be patient, or if you're getting tilted from some posts then don't post a response in that 10 minute window. Let's keep FTR the way it's been known to be, and not turn it into the other douche-infested forums.

Absolutely this. In 2009 I had joined a mega-immature forum where most of the members would rather bully the newbs. It's an awful thing when your trying to learn something.

On this topic I'm going to simply say this: Over the past 9 months I have beat 5nl & 10nl on lock, and I can honestly say at the tables I'd be way out leveling thinking about balancing for the most part. Away from the table I would do in-depth range analysis on hands in my DB, and hands in the BC, but at the tables I would just use my notes, the notes poker tracker4 took for me. I would determine how POS aware villains were. use that to think about how board intersects with them, and go from there. Even villains with reg-ish stats have super leaks post flop to exploit. the few that are actually decent. Well, that's not where your building your bankroll from.

I guarantee Savy is incapable of admitting when he's wrong
