Default Re: Anxiety for First B&M

My first reply using the Quick Reply feature: (cuz I don't have too much time.. will comment on the rest later if noone else does)

so, a few points

1) read the FAQ stickied at the top of this forum, I think it is excellent

2) try to do the same thing everytime, and if it takes ALL of your concentration of course you can still do fine. Hopefully however you will be able to get an impression of whether other players are looking interested/disinterested, staring at you, reaching for chips, etc. cuz it only improves the information you have (if you use it correctly).

3) I would suggest sitting at lower stakes first in all cases, so you become familiar with the way the game is run. Knowledge of some rules may be neccesary to protet yourself.

4) Are you sure your Dominican resort spreads a variety of poker games? I mean our entire city of ~1 million only spreads 3/6limit and 1/2nl (200NL i guess) except for the occasional weekend 10/20 game - very rarely above that, and never below.
