Would there much value in learning all the secondary and tertiary actions (next most positive EV)? I can see how it’s worthwhile knowing when early surrender is the better option, but I understand...
Now I understand what you want to do. The correct way is the one you used in the example but you could use the following system:
-4 1 1 2 2 2 0 0 0 -1 (from A to T) which would give you a...
Why do you feel compelled to speak to a newcomer about a "very clumped weird shoe composition"? He's then going to ask you what you mean, and you're going to spout nonsense to him.

You need to be 100% accurate on Basic Strategy. Depending on how many indexes you can memorize for deviated index play, you can have 80% accuracy on your index play. I mean you can choose inaccurate...
I place my bet before receiving my first card.

Because if you have the option of placing your bet later, it is obvious that the ideal would be to place...
I take great pride in trying to make the optimal decision every time and will continue to.
You put it a great way, by stating it is nothing but a foolish argument to suggest it doesn't matter...
Yes it is. If you have to learn one number or the other, is there some reason you'd prefer to learn the inferior one? If, instead, what you're saying is, when two plays are so close, if I make a...
One thought I keep getting stuck on is how much does it really matter that we make the correct move for a lot of these hairline decisions? If decision A is .0002% better than decision B we train to...
Just a quick comment or two, for those who have been asking or PMing me. The original (somewhat limited) printing of the book has now been exhausted. Going forward, the book will be available from HP...
Hi all, thanks for replying. Yes, I am playing Basic Strategy, counting, using a betting strategy and applying Illustrious 18 deviations. I suspect 100% accurate playing strategy isn't really...
