Default Re: Phil Ivey say Math not as important!

[ QUOTE ]
At higher levels, the opponents don't frequently make fundamental mathematical errors. They aren't going to draw to a hand they're not getting odds to, because they understand the basic math of the game. Of course at these levels simply knowing the math isn't going to give you any edge, and you will have to use other skills to beat them--namely deceiving them into making FTOP errors by convincing them that you have a hand that you don't really have.

Read The Professor, the Banker, and the Suicide King by Michael Craig. Andy Beal discovered the exact opposite of what you stated above about the higher level players not making mathematical errors.
