Message: [QUOTE="baby kahuna, post: 886271, member: 36368"] SteveG hits the nail on the head. Teaching makes the teacher a better player. It keeps your mind focused on the game more from an objective perspective. It also helps you formulate theory in a kinetic fashion. It comes from personal experience out to a source (the student) and back to you again. Like a mirror the student reflects YOUR game back to you. I played with some very good players in Vegas and they were always quick to discuss why they played certain hands and asked why you played your hands a particular way after the tournament. You also build bonds with fellow combatants. That taught me a lot about live play. But you yourself must be open to it as a student of the game as well. [/QUOTE]
