Getting Back in the Game

Re: Is NL more addictive than limit?

I'd say no-limit can definitely be more addictive. Its much more of a gambling game than limit, as you're oftentimes put to some very tough decisions, and the higher risk and the bigger pots can...

Re: How many \'online pros\' do you think there are in the PP 15/30

That seems a bit high.

I would expect if you were a full-time professional online player you'd more regularly play the 30-60 unless the 30-60 game was too tough or the action was unusally good at...

Re: What is the worst thing youve done after a big loss?

Re: My biggest flaw

I really don't like his check on the flop. There are two dangerous draws out there, and while the straight draw isn't a likely scenario with his strong raise, if he knows that you've been making...

Re: Keeping the pot small. Wha-?

One thing thats also important about pot management is not pricing your opponent in when you're bluffing or defending a made hand against a strong draw. A lot of times a player will know he should...

Re: maintaining aggression in NL

The key is in being able to switch between tight play and looser play.

Keep in mind that you should never be playing passive; play tight, but agressive generally, and to keep opponents on their...
