Default Re: Deceptive Ways – Beginners Mistakes

Hi Loki,

We could add "levels" corresponding to the basic issues of poker psychology: "this is my hand," "this is the range of my opponent's hands," "my opponent is likely to put me on this range of hands," "my opponent thinks I'm putting him on this range of hands," etc....

Deception is marginally useful for the second issue, and becomes much more valuable with each successive issue. But against an opponent who considers only the first issue, deception is worthless and you should just play standard, ABC poker.
