Did I do anything wrong here?
I haven't done so well short handed in recent weeks. I play very aggressively, yet I seem to be losing money. My full game stats are much better. I'm concerned I'm playing too loosely when the...

Everyone saying you're a little worse than 2:1 to make your hand by the river is way off. You're a slight favorite here against TPTK, and even money vs. two pair.

LOL--what a small world...
Your name looked familiar, so I went through my game played tonight, and it turns out we were at the same table--lol.

Who folds this after the flop?
I played this tonight. The table was a slightly loose passive game, and the opponent limped frequently with group 1 and 2 hands. I think I played OK, although I received some comments about this is...

Sustainable win rates for micro limits...
I've read Mason's various gambling books (Gambling Theory, and Poker Essays 1-3). I can't remember which one, but he believes a very good player in a B&M game could win about 2 BB per hour.

Question about your stats...
When you posted them, did you use poker tracker to filter out any short-handed games?
I have about 4100 hands played, with about 500 short-handed games included in the database. When I filter...

Re: Getting out of a downswing
I agree that taking time off if you are in a downswing is a good idea. While I don't believe in streaks, bad beats can affect you mentally, making you play too aggressively out of anger, or too...

Great Post, Ed.
I'm going to bookmark this for the next time I have a poker debate with a friend of mine, who in spite of his intelligence, plays from a weak/tight mindset.
Example: I asked him how he would play...

Great point...
This is also something to consider, although I'm sure it would take a lot of work to figure out. It would be interesting to see how your starting hands received compared to what would be expected...

I have to laugh at all these posts that ask for a specific order in which to read all of these 2+2 books.

I'd agree with the other posters. This is a very good poker book. I was surprised when I browsed through it.
For those starting out, it gives clear instructions on proper play. It clearly...
