Re: Unlearning implicit (procedural) poker knowledge
i lost for the first time in about 3 months in a brick and mortar. I was playing your typical 3-6 hold em. It was a kill pot and i had Aces in early position and thought my 6 bet was a raise but i didn't realize it was a kill pot. As a result, i let too many people in on hand due to my inattentiveness.
I had A/10 in big blind and wasn't paying attention when it came A/T on flop.
This happens because you focus on same game too much. For me, I play different limits, different games....stud...omaha...i play freeplays too. I do this to not get too bored. I find that it enhances my game in other areas.
Nowadays i do a rotation of stud sit n gos (pokerstars), limit hold em (at UB), freeplay/cash tournaments (bugsy)
i do a little bit of everything to keep it exciting.
