Let me be clear. I'm not picking on Caro. I haven't even gotten around to reading his book yet. It's not his fault that it has a special appeal for peoples with a two digit BB and three digits total hands--who haven't mastered the cashout, but are already checking hotel rates for next years WSOP. I only mention him because an irate disciple took his name in vain at Interpoker this afternoon. As I said, I absolutely agree that "when weak, act strong" has great merit. I wouldn't be surprised if the next step in my evolution is relearning this lesson which I unlearned the hard way. Poker is like that. A lot. Naturally, any rule works poorly when practiced poorly, but I'd enjoy hearing some discussion of the rule, and your experiences with it -good and bad- at various levels. I feel like I may be overripe for picking up some subtleties, that I'm playing too straightforwardly. I am getting so fat dumb and happy where I am that I actually caught myself saying "I think I'll keep playing this level for another thirty or fifty thousand hands, so my stats are valid." Or maybe I'm just overripe because I need a shower.
