In match play, the cube handling and the checker play decisions are
often dependent on the match score, so the games can take a very
different trajectory over the course of a match.


Isn't the same true in a money match where your approach varies
according to whether you are winning and losing overall


Not if you're playing smart. If you're playing smart you play to
maximize your equity in the current game, which is completely
independent of what might have happened in previous games.

Trying to make up for previous losses by being more aggressive is a
classic gambler's error. *The poker players call it "going on tilt".

Amazing. What a dweeb fest, and of course, absolutely no reference to
skiing. Since you treat rsa as a private newsgroup and threaten
anyone who refuses to play your sick games, how about moving this
bull**** to rsa.terrorist, where it is welcome?
Oh, yeah. Forgot. Your REAL private, censored newsgroup is a
complete failure.
