Re: Why aren\'t you better?
Too many time I assume that a pf raiser, on a ragged flop, has overcards only. I need to stop assuming that they are just making continuation bets or betting a draw each time.

[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] balls. the bigger yer balls, the better u do in poker. ok the diff between a great 109er that struggles in the 215s and a great 215er that pwns everything is pretty simple. PERFECT bubble play. and i mean perfect. no mistakes. not occasionally making a -ev shove, occasionally letting someone keep their bb when u dont wanna shove 23o, etc. perfect. perfect early game. this means not folding AQ from the bb on lvl 2 to a SINGLE raise to 90. this means being able to play a flop, turn, and river well. this means implementing cash game strategies to gain chips in the early stages of the stt. thats really all there is to it. holla [/ QUOTE ] no one in the world plays perfect poker. no one. [/ QUOTE ] there are people that play perfect sng poker. holla [/ QUOTE ] I think I disagree with this, depending on how strongly you mean 'perfect' to be. |

Re: Why aren\'t you better?
I play for appliances.
Since we now need a new dryer (old one caught fire today) and the garage door opener is hosed, I can't think about getting better until those things are fixed. So, my preference is to choose a level/table that will provide me with the income I need based on the current household crisis. Currently, I am working over a "Son needs new shoes" tourney having already covered the cost of a dryer and a garage door opener earlier today. If only we absolutely HAD TO HAVE something expensive..... Maybe I would get better and move up then. WhackaMcSlack |

Re: Why aren\'t you better?
I think two things that hold me back are 1) making very dumb plays twice or so per four table (lack if focus) 2) Hitting "call" without always thinking it through long enough

Re: Why aren\'t you better?
[ QUOTE ]
As a 2nd question mostly for lower limit players, if you're beating the 22s, why aren't you playing the 33s? Assume that bankroll considerations aren't a factor, unless it's too psychologically stressful to lose at the higher limit. Why do you play at the level you're at? [/ QUOTE ] This part definitely applies to me. It's not that I don't have a big enough bankroll to play higher (I play the $22s with about 500 buy-ins), it's that I don't want to give up such a good thing. I want to improve (and I feel that I am still improving every day), but I'm just way too comfortable at the 22s. I feel (illogically) that if I move up something terrible is going to happen to me and I'll somehow lose the feeling of comfort when I'm playing. |
