We should ask this question when sitting down to think about poker. Whether it be watching a video, read forums, review hands, or play. New information is filtered through our mental models and abstractions. Abstractions are helpful because they simplify analysis and give us a structure to interpret new knowledge. In poker there are a few standard ways to analyze hands, and we incorporate new info into these hand analysis models. However pre-existing models can hinder growth. Out of the box thinking is often fruitful. The ansky-aejones video we a great example. They both have some specific ideas about the game. If the best players often don't agree on spots, the rest of us should certainly open our brains. Existing models facilitate integration of knowledge, opening your brain facilitates expansion of models. Vegas is booked. Arriving on the 30th. Rental car booked for $350 for 2 weeks. Gonna crank out 1-2 more videos before. And possibly make some dual video action. Looking forward to the Leggo party, 2p2 meetup, summer league, hanging at the house, and mostly just relaxing like an actual vacation.
