With respect to the level of poker players and playing against them, I was just thinking about that the other night at the casino. I have never felt more in control than I did that night, and I was wondering why I haven't felt anywhere close to that before. Maybe it is because I have started playing a lot lately and thinking poker more, but I also realized that if these people were complete fish I wouldn't be able to do this. A lot of them were decent players, and I could remember being at that level. Thus, I was able to recognize moves that I used to make and then make counter moves. You have the advantage of being able to think like your opponent when you are like 1 level above them.
