Sorry about the heartburn.
I am sorry to have caused so much heartburn about my previous post. I probably should have posted in the probabilty section. I am 58 years old and am fairly new to the computer age. I still do not have a cell phone. However, I did post my results accurately and that was why I found them a little hard to believe myself. I approach most things systematically. I did so with blackjack 40 years ago and have I fairly good track record. I purchased my computer 3+ years ago and did a years worth of reading, studying, and practice with things such as TTH before I began playing 21 months ago. Understand, I have been playing poker for 40 years, just not Texas Hold'em. I was only trying to determine what could be considered the short run statistically. To me, 182,000 plus hands is not the long run. I have read where numerous players have talked about their really bad losing streaks in terms of years. I do not have anyone with whom I can compare my play with and discuss how I played my hands. I can only compare them to what I have read in books such as SSH. I play positon well and haved compared my hands with those in the tables in SSH and find that I do play as indicated. Before I play each hand, I determine the type of game, position, and situation. I do understand and act to protect my hands. I understand the concept of how the size of the pot affects play, odds etc. I apologize and will not bother you with any more of my posts. Thanks to people such as Dr Van Nostrin who did offer helpful comments.

Re: Sorry about the heartburn.
I'll give it another shot.
From your other post and this one, you seem overly preoccupied with preflop play, and whether your hands are winning the correct percentage of the time. Start paying attention and using the books to evaluate how you're playing postflop: not just the no-folding in big pots stuff, but protecting your hands and making good value bets (so that you win the most possible when you do win hands). -McGee |
