I used to play with a retired elderly lady in her 70s in a pub poker league, she was one of the best players and would always FT out of 30 or so runners....amazing women. she was a business women and understood risk/reward on a different level to most ive ever played with which is alot.
People have different zones of comfortability too, know where your at play within your comfort zone and be honest with yourself and the rest kind of follows suit...gl out there
As long as you use a good bankroll management system, you avoid most of this financial/emotional damage. the more you learn the easier it gets. always study when your playing good poker and willing to adapt... more so than when your losing because new strategys can trigger bigger downswings. my...
ive been a breakeven/winning player over the years ive played, if ive lost anything its time tbh but then i look at that as time invested and hope to reap some rewards for the effort 1 day. its perspective and upto your mentality on how much you lose
you get what you pay for when it comes to coaching. what level your at, avg buy ins, what level do you beat the game if any? ive never paid a coach as such but ive talked alot of hands with friends irl/online that are better than me ever since i started. if i was to go that route i would join...
so many variables and depends on other stacks mainly for me, i was terrible in this spot and would fold what felt like 80% just because i hated playing oop as id get outplayed far too often BECAUSE i was leading out (donk betting) trying to tell the raiser i had there holdings and not allowing...
its bad for poker players to play slots with limited poker roll so this was perfect for me. get some spins in with no stress beside the sign up process
hahaha i seen the same code and was intrigued myself tbh, i like slots but not enough to deposit my own money on a slot casino. i used a code for a $50 bonus and the account is at $500+ atm, if i get this offline easily enough i dont see why not have a free spin if its what you want. see how the...
no one really likes playing out of position tbh. there is so many little things, like limping into BB from button or small blind noticing a snap check, then when checked to on flop its a snap check means he has auto fold clicked so bet 1bb into him on turn with ANYTHING and scoop the pot since...
I used to auto click fold from blinds which was a big leak for me awhile back, then i started counting to 5 every decision and the amount of people that started bluffing into me increased ten fold. food for thought
Its kind of a scary topic there are ALOT of things, ill give a couple. like @Bawse said people play way too many hands from all positions, overfolding blinds is another there is a thing called minimum defend frequency (MDF) that most players have no clue about, chase too many draws for the wrong...
1 of the best things to do is use the same amount of time every decision with your whole range, makes it difficult for opponents to read hands when its polarized like this. slow playing is only good on bubbles and slow rolling is saved for vips
100% in my books tbh, your mental and table image is everything especially the longer an mtt goes and thats where the money is. keep your heartrate baseline for as long as possible
haha yeah was one of my favorite shows too, i remember staying up til 1am to watch 1 or 2 hours of the wsop on espn and never missing episodes. was before there was alot of poker on YT i think.
i agree with sites wanting to let more players win but for the others you still have control to outplay your opponents. plenty of ways to play pairs multiway set mine 3b 4b fold its your choice, the aces hand was just an example of what can be done to win. lets be honest, you and i both know...
biggest difference for me is you have to be ready to play whole ranges and get in uncomfortable spots post flop more often. if you dont have pre flop ranges locked down theres no point moving up cos that is what makes those uncomfortable spots managable just by knowing or having an understanding...
anyone remember the pokerstars show "the big game" and the guy lays down AA pre that would of lost to 66 and he scooped 200k or something.....its a feeling
its a big call to say they manipulate hands and control the action reason being you can fold any hand you want at any time AA 72 anything. so you are in control of your destiny until you leave it up to the RNG and get it in. when your not doing to well or on a downswing put your avg buyin into a...
