Message: [QUOTE="pentazepam, post: 5417844, member: 46058"] On the other hand: the only way to beat a better player is to get lucky and get better cards. And against a weak player that over-folds the cards don't matter much at all. So if you as an amateur plays a professional (not recommended) - you can win in the short run if you get good cards. In the long run I agree that since you can play ABC poker against bad opponents the cards are more important. It is back to the three main advantages you can have: skill, cards and position. If you don't have the skill advantage (and position varies) you better get the cards. So if you are the better player the cards matter less. But if you are the worse player the cards matter a lot. In the short run. In the long run you should avoid playing against good players. [/QUOTE]
