Default How many hands do you fold before you move tables?

After I just folded 3 orbits, I began to wonder. How long do I wait? I know this means I am playing OK preflop, but I was wondering how long some of you others have waited for starting cards. I guess playing 1 table at pacific makes it seem like an eternity too. If the players weren't so loose I would be more apt to move. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

Seriously, what do you hope to accomplish by moving tables?

OK, maybe not move tables. Bad choice of words. I was just wondering if runs of bad cards like that were common.

Us newbies hear about guys 'crushing' games, and making all this money it is easy to overlook how much folding and patience it takes to win consistently.

I know there is a lot I have to learn. That's why I'm here.

Well the tables I've been playing haven't beet too tight that's for sure. Of course down here in the ghetto that's to be expected. I've seen 4 in a showdown many times. The problem is I'm getting dealt nuttin and the fish are feeding on themselves. Oh well, beats workin'. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I could sit down at 6:00pm, fold every hand till midnight and leave happy with my play if thats what the cards dictated. I'm only leaving if I don't want to play or the game conditions become unfavourable.
