Welcome to all the new guys. Did Xianti publish an ad somewhere or what's up with that?
Here are a few quick memorize-'em guidelines that will save you some pain and cash.
-YOHAA: Your Opponent Has An Ace. Yeah, it sucks to wait 2 hours for kings and raise big PF and so on, but when that A flops and opp bets into you there's Nothing to think about. Maybe next time.
-If you are upset about a beat for more than a couple minutes, you are playing out of your bankroll. You've got $800 in the bank and it's a .05/.10 table? I don't care. If the 5-outer pisses you off that much it's too much
-NL fans, you should seriously consider playing limit hold 'em at least some of the time. Makes for good discipline and boy do you get to practice swallowing crappy suckouts. Limit is for wusses? Whatev.
-It depends. And it's GOOD that it depends. See thread of same name.
-If a bunch of fish take some of your money, it means Precisely Dick about you as a person. "Geez I can't even beat these $%@$ who play Q4s UTG! WTF is wrong with me?!" Nothing. You can and will beat them. Stay on target.
-A lot of people are playing poker nowadays. Most of them suck. Bad. But you're STILL not done studying. Do your homework.
Regarding the above: I am no expert. I am a profitable player, and wish someone had said these things to me in April of 2004. Then I'd be a Real Profitable player. Maybe.
