Default Re: what\'s your poker wisdom?

Monty's idea is tremendous. I'm going to start doing that also because I know I do it a few times a session, sometimes a lot a session and I know I need to stop, but I get (insert emotion here) and want to play. Very good stuff monty for all the reasons astro mentioned.

One of the guys I used to play with a lot would often say "there are no bad cards, only bad flops" which was pretty amusing I thought due to its relative truth. We all know that any 2 don't win enough to show long term profit, but it sure is what guides someone with 83s to call a raise PF to see if their suit comes.

For these boards in particular, my one piece of advice is this... if the poster's advice is worded in an arrogant, obnoxious and/or demeaning way, don't automatically dismiss it because the poster is an ass. Some of the best players/posters on this forum rarely post another way and while it may bruise the ego a bit to have them mock you, read the advice and consider its merits, many of it is really good.
