BROKE AGAIN
 

haha i went broke again was in a 2 week slump. some of it is prolly my fault and some of it might be because i hit s slump. maybe i need to hit a lower buy in, or take some time off the game. its just hard to try when the buy in is small... ive been playing for 9 months now and have gone broke alot. i have a full time job so i usually buy back in for 50 or 25 after i get paid.. havent felt like winning since i started this down hill slump.

what do you guys suggest i do? take a break/go to a lower buy in*which would be 1$/ or something else.. ok ok i know i suck but i do put in a effort in and out of the table..

alright thank GL!

Spend the next $50 on Theory of Poker and Hold 'em for Advanced Players.

Re: BROKE AGAIN
 

i actually have a lot of poker books including that one. right now im readin Matt Matros the making of a poker player.
i havent fully read Theory of Poker cuz i dont think it would help my sit n go game.

Man, even Ken Warren's book helped my game. Every book helps your game because it makes you think about poker. Finish TOP.

i spend a lot of time thinking about poker of course the more i think about the more i learn thats theres more to learn. so i have a bunch of books to read and 7-8 i have read with a few re reads. on a week i average 20-30 hours of play. but i think about poker and read prolly about that much if not more. the reason i think about the game so much is because i can do that at work. think about poker theory and how i should play every hand. maybe i just need more time

Re: BROKE AGAIN
 

Post some hands where you weren't sure what to do (or some you THINK you did the right thing).

I guarantee you will learn things [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Helped me a little too, but I had to unlearn some things. It was the first poker book I owned, and not terrible for someone who has never played a hand in their lives. otherwise......

Re: BROKE AGAIN
 

How much have you lost total? what buy in do you play? how many games have you played?


If you dont know the answer to all of these questions then there is a good chance that you are just losing player.

I recomend posting some hands/questions first then buying in for 50 and playing as many 5s as you can.

There can really only be 3 feasable reasons for busting out so often.

1) under bankrolled for the limit
2) really really really bad luck
3) You arent a winner


Figure out why first, then act accordingly.

Re: BROKE AGAIN
 

I was in the same boat (actually still kinda am broke in comparison to may on here I'm sure [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]) but posting here will help. Take the feedback as something positive even if you get ripped into. I very recently came to 2+2 and see my game improving everyday. Also study study study, and try to put what you've learned into every game. GL w/ it.
