Thanks to reader Lance Brown for bringing this blog post to my attention. It's a science writer describing a poker session on his recent trip to Vegas:
The rest of the session was pretty uneventful, though it started out kind
of odd. I was dealt deuce-4 the first two hands at the table and folded them
both preflop, of course. The first flop was 2 2 4 and the second flop was 2 2 2. Guess I gotta learn to play crap in early position even when it's raised. Nah, that would be stupid and cost me a lot of money.
See? I try to bring the gospel of the 2-4 to the masses, but they will not listen. The poker gods gave him powerful evidence of the righteousness of the 2-4, and he dismisses it as "stupid."
O ye of little faith!

trying to convert, but finding the intestinal fortitude to play the all-powerful 2-4 is difficult. But, even without its assistance I went up $278 in a $.25/$.50 cash game this past weekend. :-)
I do have one question for you. When you are holding your duece/four, how hard is it for you to get away from your trips on a blank board with heavy betting?
I tend to get into trouble with with trips and a weak kicker.

For a science advocate, that guy sure is a maroob.
