question about applying knowledge
i have read some books about texas hold em, and learned a great deal about the game. the only problem is, when i sit down to a table and play, i get to caught up in the atmosphere and the cards, and i don't use the strategies that i have learned. is there any advice that anyone could give me telling me how to remember to use the strategies that i learn, also some advice on how to use the strategies at the poker table. thanks for the help

Re: question about applying knowledge
I tape post-it notes to my monitor to remind me of concepts
I am trying to be aware of. Right now I have "Fish Call", "No Free Cards", "Adjust to your Image" and a list of my top-ten money losing hands. |

Re: question about applying knowledge
You want to have a game plan mapped out clearly at this point. Write it down. And then write down each time you deviate from it. Eventually you'll get sick of writing about the same stuff over and over again [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
Here's something that should help. You need to think of your place in the game in terms of following through with your poker skills. Forget about other stuff such as wanting action, being entertained, being distracted by the play of others, changing the plan on the fly, etc. The time to change your game plan is never in the heat of battle. Write down your ideas and later, after the game, you can give them the thought they deserve. I wouldn't fret too much about this though - this is fairly common for new players. Eventually it will become more second nature, and you'll cut down a lot on your references to carnal knowledge [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] KC http://kingcobrapoker.com |

Seriously though play more hands and try your best there isnt really gonna be a shortcut to winning poker. Sure "studying" the game will help but without playing thousands of hands those ten books you read are probably gonna make you weak tight, weird random aggressive, or just the average fish if you don't pay attention to them. The books can't outline hardly any of the many situations you will find yourself in. |
