Not a math whiz by any means, but I saw this in another forum and thought I would share it.

Thanks for the interesting article. In terms of poker, just like the Monty Hall Problem is counter-intuitive for most people including myself, the best poker play is often counter-intuitive as well. If one is able to analyze and figure out the best strategy, then one has an advantage over those who just use their intuition or "gut feeling", which is often dead wrong.
