Re: Learning hold em for a total beginner

1) Are you a winning hold'em player?
I find it hard to believe- if you're trying to set your friend up playing those limits- you would know there's no point playing those limits for him at all... not for $ or practice.

That's just asinine. I happen to believe that there is value to learning to beat super-loose games. It teaches discipline and playing correctly while getting sucked out on. Furthermore you'll see ultra-loose games at least up to Foxwoods $4/8. Admittedly I am still a relative beginner, and I know many will discount my opinion accordingly. I don't blame them.
More to the point, reasonable minds may differ on this and many other issues. The number of people on this site who mistake self-assuredness for ignorant dogmatism is just astounding.
