Default Re: Hand from TJ Cloutier Card Player Article

I’m not saying that I won’t go up and over somebody with that hand. I might even go over the top of them with a 7-2, but I do it because I’ve put them on a bad hand, not two queens

So TJ says the mistake is the call. The way I read it he's advocating not calling raises with an easily dominated hand OOP without a read - but instead to act on it if you have a read. Not that mysterious.

But I'll give you, even though TJ's winning record cannot be disputed his books attempts to analyze the game beyound reads are generally abysmal and rarely goes above the level of heuristics.

Amazing that McManus managed to make fifth in WSOP ME 2000 with TJ's book and early Wilson software as sole sources of NL wisdom.

Best,
