Why don't you stop trying to reinterpret whats been written.I didn't call him an idiot for not being good at poker . I called him an idiot for writing in the first post of this blog that he was going to read ALL of the beginners digest and then saying that was 5% done. I counted 47 articles there which meant that he had read 2 or 3 of them.
He didn't think wow ....lots of knowledge here and read more but jumped straight in and multi tabled at a stake he wasn't rolled for. Had he read the bankroll management articles , the noobie circle of death article and lots of the others , he wouldn't have made these basic mistakes. With such a wealth of information available was that a wise choice to make or stupid?
I then pointed him to the specific article which addressed some of the mistakes in his approach to poker (not to how he actually played). Then asked him questions to make sure that he understood the article and a follow up question which hasn't been answered yet.
The OP is going to have to do a lot of thinking for himself and work out the best way to tackle situations. He has to realize that he should work out whether its best to shove Aces or value bet them. I can think of a specific situation where shoving Aces is the best policy but in general its not as all you will do is fold everyone out and win the least amount possible in the long term.
Therefore having read the article I pointed him to he should have worked out why I called him an idiot. And Having been called an idiot that lesson is going to be firmly fixed in his brain.You say that we need to think about our replies more. I throw the same statement back at . You need to think about our replies more. We are not going to just spoonfeed you answers and you will zoom off and make a fortune.You need to understand what you are being told , think about it, wonder if theres any other areas the same principles can be applied , whether theres specific times that the answer given may not be the best solution and the ask questions about that .
Or you can just take the hump and feel offended. Who else has felt the need to swear in this thread ? This explanation is a further simplification and and explanation of my original post for the third time now and you still chose to ignore and misrepresent what I originally wrote after the previous explanations.
