Solvers aren't God, as some people think. They are a helpful tool, of course, but as RTA is not allowed by pokerrooms, meta game is still an human responsability

I played for a living from 2003-20009 and I definitely think the general level of play is much higher now. I was still playing limit poker til 2005, but televised tournaments caused an explosion of no-limit, and an influx of players who had learned from watching final tourney tables on teevee and they were easy money in cash games, trying to play like they had seen, bluffing way too much, playing weak hands out of position, etc.. The one tip I think still holds true is play at sites that are attached to sports-betting and the player pool is weaker.

I agree with this notion. People who don't follow or play poker are the weakest people you can play with. So if you're a recreational poker player you can definitely be profitable against them.
