Bolt, this is brilliant.  Will Leeds United get promoted this year?

I'm not sure what system they have in place in  league one but it appears that leeds have to play Northampton 8000 times this season, now you would think that would give them a numerical edge over the compitition yet having worked out their probable final tally based on recent results against said team leeds will be lucky if they get enough points to stay up.

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL,Theres about 3-4 people on the forum that know why this question will tilt my brain and soul harder than any other question you couldve chosen to ask at any other time but i decreed at the start you all get but one question so lets pretend it's two weeks ago.................

Firstly it's apparent to me that i'm an absolutely crap poker teacher, i find it eminently difficult to articulate to others(i sometimes think its just that my friends are thick ) general concepts that a professional poker pro would know as standard and even harder to expound upon the specifics of individual hands ive played in the presence of friends, i now just dont bother.

A lot of my friends can play to different standards but 90% of whom are crap, i have 1 Friend in particular who has good raw instincts but fails with the theory side, even after a couple of years playing recreational poker he makes the most basic of mistakes(especially in online multis) of underbetting pots and inviting multiway action pre with premiums, that being said i remember we were playing £0.50p/1 on a sunday afternoon for fun and he raises mid with with KQ, i call in sb with 89 and we see a flop........89k this is a player thats never read a book and has limited poker theory comprehension, i c/r he's c- bet of £5 to £16 which he flats(leaves him about £45 behind and im deep) turn comes a j, i dwell up and set him in, he goes into the tank and folds kq up, now as much as i explain to him the mathematics of pot odds, the idea of EV and things like fold equity it just doesn't seem to register with him and online he's a losing player so i feel that my abilities as a teacher arnt great and therefore find it difficult to expound upon the fundamental philosophy behind being a fulltime pro to novices who really havnt got a clue if i cant refine the raw skills of someone who's live game a flop play is pretty sound but doesn't translate into +EV online game.

errrrmmmm, i suppose the short answer to that question really is, i just dont bother trying anymore
