Default Re: riverboatking post re: 2nd/3rd level thinking

Hi mlagoo,

[ QUOTE ]
Now, if I'm correct in my "poker terminology," we refer to 1st level thinking as "what we have," 2nd level thinking as "what the opponent has," and 3rd level thinking as "what the opponent thinks we have."

[/ QUOTE ]

You are incorrect in your terminology. 1st is "what does our opponent have?", 2nd is "what does our opponent think we have?", 3rd is "What does our opponent think we think he has?" I had to say that last one over and over until I understood what it meant; most people get it wrong, and very, very few of us bother to think on that level when playing.
