I have a slightly different take on this sort of observation:
I think that any player that considers themselves “competent” at this game and doesn’t recognize that playing it is continually a double edged sword is only kidding themselves.
One edge being the selection process and the other being the practice of betting for value (and profit).
That’s not to say that the majority of players are just not “competent” for any number of reasons related to either one of these sword edges.
