Expectations

Telling somebody who already is the way they are to be themselves, then telling them to be more, do more, is an unrealistic expectation.
Unrealistic expectations don't allow anybody to improve on their own terms, so they don't really allow somebody to improve at anything. People don't try to improve at something for or because of a program. Really, they are better off deprogramming themselves, and unplugging from the bullshit.

EV (expected value)

In poker, EV (or expected value) is the amount of money a player is expected to win in a given situation, based on math.
EV=F($POT)+C(%WIN$WON)-C(%lose$lost)
%win/lose= equity
$won/lost= number of big blinds

You should bet 10bb on this flop, it will give you the highest EV (expected value)
