we always notice when an opponent does something stupid and gets rewarded, especially when it's to our detriment. what we don't see is ALL the
times our opponent does something stupid and does NOT get rewarded, so we
win a bigger pot than we should of. if you can keep on inducing your opponents into errors and avoid making mistakes on your own, the extra
chips you win with the best hands more than offsets the ridiculous beats that one endures. another way of stating this, is the most important thing is not how much you win with your winning hands, but how much you save or how little you lose with your losing hands. |
