Post your top 3 skills that you own in your opinion.
1.) I don't ever go on tilt anymore.
2.) When playing poker I seem to play in a Zen-like state and interact accordingly to the environment around me.
3.) I can lay down hands when I know I'm beat instead of paying the player off because 'I want to see' what they have.
bad beats mean nothing
i think i can pick off bluffs well
im agressive
1. I can make plays without good cards when spotted weakness
2. Patience to fold, fold, fold
3. I dont really tilt (in ring games)
Gabe, go back to your tourney forums :P
1. De-stack by trapping.
2. Capability to honest recognition of tilting and acting accordingly (aka "takin a freakin break")
3. Laying down TPTK/overpair against push on flop.
1) Actively trying to improve my game
2) BR management
3) Emotional control
1. I get incredible reads
2. I know when to lay things down
3. I play perfect preflop
1. I protect my pairs like Kevin Costner
2. I'm much better heads up than 90%+ of the players at my level
3. I am a modest, polite and friendly opponent
1) I'm a gambl0r who doesn't gamb0l.
2) Im patient.
3) Fish suck at poker
-'rilla
1. I analyse my game constantly and cant learn enough about how to play any hand
2. Im aggresive
3. I control my bankroll management so as to not dump too much of it while either on a poor run of drawouts or through bad poker.

My blacklist in order of appearance: ake, gabe, arkana. I have never liked you guys, never!! *snif* ( I thought we were friends) :cry:
1) I'm always trying to improve my game, moreso now than ever before.
I can't think of three good things about my game to be honest... I can think of many more bad things about it than good. The fact that I am learning at a fast pace is what I'm most proud of.
For example: Lastnight I was playing in a 7 man ring tournee and I raised with rockets pre-flop 8bb.. ultimately scooping the blinds and one initial raise of 2bb. 2nd time I had rockets I was on the BB. Folded around to sb who called. I check. flop comes 2 clubs no straight draw. he pushes, i call.
I learned that I will never bet 8xbb preflop with anything ever again.
Oh and I love getting huge cards on the BB and slow playing them.
BR management - I'm playing for the long term
Tilt management - I still Tilt, but much less often and I stop playing earlier or play a lower limit that has no effect on the BR. In general I try to lengthen sessions when running well and shorten sessions when not. You can be playing well and losing or playing bad and winning, but mostly it's the other way around.
MultiTabling ring - becoming more and more automatic, and with bonuses and RB a steady addition to SNGs, which I still prefer.
1. I can do tricky math in my head
2. I can lay down pairs, even top pair!
3. I can listen to Fnord
1) I've layed KK preflop 4x in my life and each time they had AA
2) I am a handsome man
3) I can stare at people untill they become uncomfortable
1. I'm able to outplay most players after the flop.
2. My bluffs almost always work.
3. My shorthanded game is the best it's ever been.
i'll divide it up by catagory
cash games:
1. very patient, I often "counter-play"
2. I've learned to make great semi bluffs at crippling moments
3. very adaptive and hard to read in live games
tournaments
1. I go for broke on my big hands, that's how I got up to 2.3 million chips in the $3 r/a
2. big bets don't scare me, I use reasoning to see through it
3. play like it's the last thing on earth
