Too Good?

The general rule you will find in most articles & books is that if you have less than twice as good G chances as losing chances, you should cash.

That is maybe a useful tidbit to know (like knowing your cubeless takepoint for money is 25%) but it doesn't really answer any kind of question as to when to play on. Sometimes you can play on with significantly less than twice as many Gs as losses. Look at a few different positions and see when you are TG and when you are not TG. If he is sure the position is a pass, but unsure whether it's TG or not, just play on. Sooner or later he will start making mistakes in playing on when he shouldn't but hopefully those can likewise be corrected.
