Sean Deeb: Thinking Poker Players Often Misjudge Opponents


Sean Deeb suggests that many regular players in mid-stakes tournaments often misjudge the thinking level of their opponents. He advises to initially respect opponents less and not more.

Sean Deeb notes that most decisions in early stages are made against random opponents who are almost impossible to read. He suggests that players should start thinking more effectively and not just put themselves in the opponent's place.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes.
