How many times have you thought, "This needs to be fixed"? Not just a few? You might want to think about whether your game isn't as good as you thought it was. In fact, it's possible that there's still a lot of work to be done.
You need to decide if you play to have fun or to make money. You're right! From what I can tell, you play games to have fun, not to make money.
Maybe you just grab the first seat that's free and start going. This may satisfy your need for action, which is great, but since we don't want to lose, we want to do something else.
We think that scouting games at the level you want to play at is the best way to go. You are looking for weaknesses in one way or another. You want to focus on tight passives, calling stations, and maniac play most of the time.
Since this is the internet, there is nothing stopping you from taking as much time as you need to find that soft seat.
Unlike in real rooms, you don't have to take whatever they give you.
You found the perfect place to sit for how you like to play. There could be a lot of different reasons why that seat is empty. You'll soon find out why.
In the last twenty minutes, you've been dealt the coldest wave of cards you've ever seen.
Do you press? Do you play those mediocre and annoying songs?
Of course not! Get away from there! You can choose from dozens of games. Even better, make another account on a different site. Give yourself even more to choose from. There's no rule that says you have to sit there and get your head bashed in.
You enjoy seeing a lot of bad movies. This is a bad way to make money on the Internet.
We've found that 30–33 percent of players in all positions have seen flops is about right. There is no hard and fast rule here, but evidence shows that players who depend more on luck are more likely to have flops.
Speed is important. Don't make things up. Very quickly, these hands are being dealt.
In general, you will be dealt about twice as many hands in the same amount of time on the internet as you would in a regular card room. This means that your mistakes cost you money much faster than they used to. This is the best reason to play starting hands with high value.
"Playing and losing is the next best thing to playing and winning," it has been said.
Even though the statement is mildly funny, it only shows an attitude that puts your finger right on the self-destruct button.
Do you triple or more your bankroll, only to lose it all along with your original bet? I don't mind if I leave the table with a double or triple. You also shouldn't.
I have heard experts talk about this topic many times. So far as I can tell, conventional wisdom says that you should keep playing as long as you keep playing well.
There is one main reason why we don't agree with this point of view. We think this is a clear case of comparing apples and oranges. First of all, they are world-class musicians with advanced skills who play live. You are trying to stay alive so that you can win in a different place.
Don't be so quick! Somewhere, there is always a game. Like the ads say, there is action all the time. If you want to win money, you have to play with discipline and focus.
Don't give yourself so much trouble. There are already a lot of hard things in life. Find out more. Choose your spots and don't try too hard. If you do these things right away, you will see a big difference.
