    Play ABC poker which essentially boils down to this:

    - Only play hands you would raise (and if it's not raised yet, then do so)

    - Fish don't bluff. Just because you think there's no way he's holding 75o from EP for the straight, he is. Trust me, lost several buy-ins from that shit yesterday.

    - Learn continuation betting, value betting, and to Bet/Fold. Learn where and when to apply these techniques. If you don't know what they are, a simple google search will tell you along with some nice strategies. That's what I did for value betting yesterday.

    - Put your opponents on a hand range. I know this will be hard to do on some fish/maniac, but chances are if he opened 4x bb in EP, he's holding premium hands. Learn to watch what he does for future help on putting him on a range.

    - Loose the fancy shit. Just because you think you know to Float, Slow play, delay c-bet, or bluff 3 streets, doesn't mean you actually know how to do it right. Chances are, it's not going to be helpful on fish anyways.

    -Each limit is broken down into certain aspects you need to learn. For the lower limits, it's pre-flop and post flop play as well as positional advantages and what they mean to you. When you get higher, then you'll start to learn the fancy crap and realize how much of a donk you were for trying to use it in the LOLlimits.

    - IRC. Read it. Join in it. Learn from it. Love it. : IRC Post


    - You're still reading this post? Get your ass moving. You won't get anywhere in poker without a little work.
    "Looking at my old posts, I realize how much of a DONK I was. Time to change that and TRULY learn how to play poker. No more ego. No more pride. Just me, my cards, and the great knowledge bestowed upon me by FTR."

    I think that watching too many videos can cause this. Just cause M2M, Spenda and CodeRed do it doesn't mean you know how to do it correctly
