Default Re: does anyone remember \"george\"?

"Some experts deliberately play a few extra hands, and then use their superior playing skills to catch up. They still lose money on these additional hands, but these hands allow them to make a little more on their legitimate hands due to the additional deception that they create."

"lol, is this a joke mason? have you read any of the DERB threads at all?"

The words in the book still understate the facts (deliberately, for the sake of 99% of our readers.)

Some great players play quite a few more hands and show an immediate profit with some of them. The worst hands are advertisng for the others. And if they play even more hands still, their lessened winnings will sometimes be masked by higher volatilty. I hope you guys aren't all making the mistake I have frequently warned against, confusing obvious mistakes with costly mistakes.
