Default Re: Why didn\'t Sklansky cover Inflection Points?

Hi everyone,

I was just wondering today why TPFAP had basically nothing on inflection points with respect to your stack:starting pot size. Specifically, Harrington's advice to push when first in with relatively weak holdings when in the "Orange Zone" to keep from slipping into the "Red Zone" seems like exactly the kind of adjustment a winning cash game player might not know to make in a tournament.

Noting and explaining these adjustments is ostensibly the purpose of Sklansky's book. So, why do you think he didn't mention them? I can think of a few reasons; what do you think?

Actually, inflection points were touted as one of the reasons that HOH was supposed to be so good. Asking why Sklansky didnt cover inflection points is like asking why Newton didn't cover Quantum Mechanics. Do you see why?
