This is good for anyone, but especially for Will and Ian who are
self-admitted nits. Hope this helps with the overall thinking of the
game.

Is it really "pulling a Russ" if the information is more recent then 30
years ago and usefull?

That is a good article and in a lot of ways one of the first lessons I
learned when I read my first poker book "Winning at Low Limit Holdem."
Fold to building a bankroll basically.

I splash around with different styles of play and they all send me back to
nitsville. I would dearly love to put a post it note over my cards and
play the players, but I don't know that I would know how. Like I said
earlier, when I make a play at somebody they usually wake up with the nuts
and MTT starting chips offer few opportunities to try things.


Thanks

Somehow this didn't sound right when I went back and read it.

Anyhow, the article was explaining how the middle ended up feeling out
lucked and Lee said that you should expect to be sucked out on more
because you play better. That is why his book came to mind I guess.
