Plasticity

Most of what you come into contact is made from or covered in plastic in one way or another. It really is a wonder material. Part of its wonder comes from its flexibility, its plasticity. Being flexible is very important to successful poker play. It's undeniable that a flexible player can outplay a rigid one. The former is simply better able to adapt to the ever changing game situation than the latter. Plastic is only flexible under certain situations; at other times, plastic is itself very rigid. Plastic can be very strong and unyielding when we require it to be. You should be the same in poker.
