K_dense 3 Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 I have posted on here a few times in the past about nothing but to brag on this certain hand or how much I took off this guy, blah blah blah. I had a general concept of nl hold em play. I KNEW NOTHING, and on a smaller note, prob. still dont. I would win 100 , lose 75. Win 15, lose 50. Get angry and tilt my ass off till I was broke and then reload and donate some more. I took a small brk. , power read all the books I have seen mentioned here at fcp. Read em again and then started to play within my bankroll. Before, I would start at .5/.10 nl and get lucky and think I was ready for some 1/2. Ha, thinking back now, I can see that I was the donkey everyone kept talking about. No one thinks that this could be them but one day the light bulb went on over my head and I realized that things needed to change. I strongly suggest to read those books , just to get more info about things you might not think to look for or see. Now I read all the stuff on this forum so I know that some of you are past reading and are more advanced. Your post have also helped my play. Newbs, myself included, stop posting your dribble and read books and what these vets are saying in the strat section. I have a ways to go with all the donkeeeee money I have paid out , and the cost of the poker books but I think I am on my way. Thank you for the information you guys on fcp are writing about. You know you are. Link to post Share on other sites

ForKeeps 0 Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 Nice job man, I can relate.I was a weak/tight who eventually lost over time for a very long while. I read only one book and didn't really work on my game, and just thought i was heiniously unlucky for getting sucked out on, etc. I read a bunch of strat, etc. on this site, and I bought Phil Gordon's Little Green Book. I think after reading strat here and about 2 days with that book, I completely turned a corner. It was like it all made sense; I don't know if I can credit directly the forum or Phil's book or it was just like learning to ride a bike, but now I win very consistently and it's one of the best feelings in the world. Personally for me, the two problems were playing outside my bankroll ( I cared about the money too much) and not knowing how to bet in order not to get sucked out on and make donks pay dearly for drawing or calling with poor holdings. I got bankroll mgmt help from this forum and betting from Phil's book. Hope you see continued success. Link to post Share on other sites
