Re: What winning poker concept is least understood by ordinary Players
Disqualified on the basis of not being strictly a poker concept. But all the same, the tendency to be result-oriented has to be right up there. All it takes is one pot to cancel out 2 hours of losing, and convince a fish that playing J3o, or slowplaying top pair on a co-ordinated board, etc. etc., is a winning strategy.

Re: What winning poker concept is least understood by ordinary Players
Total novices fail to realize that poker is not all chance.
Ordinary players fail to realize that chance is a big part of poker. |

As a less than ordinary player.....
I would say the fact that calling someone who is "bluffing" isn't good if you still can't beat their hand.

Great point.
Negreanu recently had an old article re-published wherein he talked about people spending too much time looking for physical tells to the exclusion of letting someone’s betting/raising/checking do the telling.
