This is kinda like what we were talking about a while back in irc, but it's still missing the most important part, which is seeing the overall framework before tackling each part of it. Personally, when studying I like to know the size of the topic, like looking at the chapters of an academic book I'm about to study before getting into it as opposed to just opening it up and starting to wade though with no idea how big the book is, what it's going to cover, how much time needs to be invested, what bits I'm particularly looking forward to etc. I think that's particularly important and allows you to prepare better.

All of this is covered by knowing the rules to the game and what the basic terminology is. Nothing that you said is in opposition to what's talked about in the article.

This.

I know what bet sizing, continuation betting, ranges, etc are, it doesn't mean I'm any good at them though.
