Default FToP & ultimate morality

If the Fundamental Theorum of Poker is correct, then there is a perfect/ultimate quality about morality, because unlike in poker, we have the ability to communicate what we are experiencing. As the quality of our communication advances, we will be able communicate at a higher level. Which means we will understand ourselves on a higher level, which means we will be able understand the highest degree of truth we can know, which is in ourselves.

So if there is theoretical perfection in poker, there is a theoretically perfect quality in humans (If we can do perfection then there is something in us that is perfect). As a poker player gets better, he realizes that tilt/attachment to thought, just muffles his true game. This logically leads to the idea that improving or clarifying the self leads to better poker play because it 'unclouds' the thought process which makes you see yourself more clearly, which is a fair assumption.
