I've been thinking about this a good bit, too. I used to HATE threads where the respected posters disagreed. I was rereading some old nutsinho threads, and it's interesting seeing ISF, nuts, miffed, meeloche, galapagos, and mcatdog splitting over the right play - everything from fold to call to jam. I think what I missed when I read them (and didn't get anything out of them) a year ago was that they put just enough in their posts that you can piece together a very complicated thought process. And you can learn a lot about how to think about poker.

Maybe they'll get it someday. It certainly took me awhile. At least I didn't get huffy with the posters who were trying to help me out, tho.

FWIW, I used to totally tilt when fnord posted in my threads. I could never figure out what the heck he was talking about. In the past few months, I've really developed a ton of respect for him and his thoughts on the game. And I even understand about half of what he's sayin' now.
