I guess like a lot of new players who have been watching poker on TV, I jumped straight into playing NL games either with friends or online.

I've now come to the conclusion that I'd like to get a...

Thanks guys - appreciate the responses



I guess I mainly play SnGs (6 or 8 players) or low level tournaments (up to about $5). I've won a couple of them, but I can't quite shake the feeling...

Do many of you read your poker books in PDF format? If so, how do you read them?

On a phone? Laptop? Something else??

I'm just curious as I'm trying to read mine on a laptop at the moment and...

I'm sure I'm not the first person to ask this question, but a search of the forum hasn't really thrown up a load of helpful answers, so I figured I'd post this.

I'm a long a time member of FTR...

I'm getting really frustrated at the moment as I seem to be continually going out on the bubble.

I've just been in a micro stakes sit and go game. I didn't really get any hands at all, but managed...

I've been reading Harrington on Hold 'Em and in one of the questions that come at the end of each chapter, he puts the reader in a position of have 6c 8c and with the opportunity to call $100 into a...

Can someone just check this through:

Let's say blinds are 150 and 300

SB calls so there's 600 in the pot (2 players)

Flop comes up and I'm on a straight draw - I need any Ace

Other player...

I guess maybe a bit of both - I've just bought www.beermonkey.co.uk and I'm not quite sure what to do with it. A boozy website sounds the way to go ... but I'm just not quite sure exactly what!

I'm playing at PokerRoom - I don't think that should cause a problem though should it? I believe the software supports it.



I'll take your word for it jackvance - to be honest I'd be happy with...

Thanks taipan - got some way to go before my graph looks like yours, but it's nice to see what I've learned so far paying off, and it's given me a kick up the ass to keep going with it!

Thanks swiggidy - level 0 is as good a place to start as any!

Just to make sure I'm doing things right, how did you go about starting a new DB and importing the HH?

Cheers,

Hi there,

I've downloaded the trial version of Poker Office and have had it running when I've played my last few tournaments. However, for some reason the package is not recording any details of...

I'm not sure I'm nearly experienced enough to say how well you played this hand, but I'd certainly like to know how it turned out.

My personal reading is that with no paint on the board, you'd...

Just out of curiosity, I thought I'd ask what your ideal booze related website would be like.

Just forums like these to discuss pubs, bars, beers from around the world? Or would it be a place to...

Can you tell me where you guys manage to generate these graphs from?

Is it from the website itself or in software packages like Poker Office?

Is it purely betting patterns or is there anything else that I can look out for?

I guess I've moved on from noobie to novice, and would like to keep improving.

Well I figured I'd post up here seeing as I've had my best win to date.

I still count myself very much as a noobie so have been generally playing $2+.20 Sit and Go games to try and get some...

Am I right in thinking that "Fish" are noobie players who don't really know what they're doing? :oops:

Thanks arkana - I think I'll give it a shot.

Just out of interest, are there any other card houses around London that you (or anyone else!) would recommend?

Well having played online for a while I'm eager to sit down at a table with people. I've just discovered that the Gutshot club in London has a £10NL tournament on Sundays which seems like a good...

Lederer - just for the way that he thinks about the game.

Closley followed by Gus Hansen and Daniel Negranu

After all that, I stick a typo in there :roll:

Yeah, there were two diamonds on the board which gave me a fair few outs, but it was still nice to be able to sit there and calculate that I was...

... and seeing as I'm alone in the house at the moment, you guys are going to get the full blow by blow account.

I've just won a tournament. It's not my first (actually it's my third) and it's...

Thanks alot for that Wooderson ... and apologies swiggidy - I didn't know that that was what the rule was called.

I've just been reading THIS article on calculating pot odds quickly when at the table.

In it, Lou Krieger talks about multiplying the number of outs you have by two and then adding two in order to...
