I feel like I've been told off by AJS... I'm sorry... I didn't mean to...
Anyway, from my point of view I'm only helping a very few players anyway. There's probably only 30 or so regular posters in the clinic and I think there are more poker players out there than that. The thing is, I probably learn more than anyone else from my repsonses in the clinic. Explaining my own thoughts gives others the chance to challenge those thought processes and forces me to justify them to myself. This leads to my good habits being reinforced and my poor habits being redressed.
If anyone has learned from the vast amounts of hopeless drivvle I've posted in the clinic, it's got to be me. So AJS I would say that posting in the clinic and "helping" others has improved my profitability, not harmed it... that's if I ever bother to play the game again... which isn't looking likely. lol

There probably are alot of people reading ocassionally but if they're not asking questions and laying out their own ideas, I doubt they're learning too much... especially if they're listening to me.
I don't generally post my own hands or ask advice from others but you learn alot when answering other peoples' questions. You open up your own methods to scrutiny.
I don't play much purely because I don't enjoy the game at the moment. Real life issues have taken the fun out of things but I still like thinking about the game. I'll get back to playing mega-volume again some day.
