Re: Crosspost - \"Cookie Cutter disease\"
not really sure about your examples but I agree with the general spirit of your post, which to me amounts to spending more time focusing on the game, table dynamic, hands you're not involved in, etc. this is easy to do live but IMO challenging to do online, especially when there are so many distractions available.

Re: Crosspost - \"Cookie Cutter disease\"
I concur that thinking in a cookie cutter fashion is not the way to learn to beat the biggest games. I'm kind of a Joey Knish sort of player though, I enjoy my moderate wins vs. bad players. (However, I've moved up from "moderate" wins at 2/4 to "moderate" wins at 5/10 and 10/20, so obviously I am improving and climbing the stakes, but not at a TheBruiser or KKF speed.) Right now, "moderate" wins means thousands of dollars a week at very low risk, so I think it's no wonder that a lot of players are looking for cookie cutter moves.
You may see the game differently than I do. I think that if you're looking to play the big games (bigger than 10/20), then you do need to work on outside-the-box plays, shorthanded games, and basically spend some time challenging the tougher players at your site regularly, which are things that these threads rarely address, and which are things that I avoid much of the time. |
