Harrington on Hold\'em
I had had a terrible April. My game had gone to Hell and I could not identify the leak. I read a post that quoted Harrington and it got me thinking.
I went out and bought the book yesterday and read the first 50 pages. It helped me to identify my leak. I played last night and today and have had winning sessions on three sites. I paid $30 for the book and made 8 times its cost in a day. For any NLHE player it should be a must. cat923 |

Re: Harrington on Hold\'em
Find the 2+2 book which best discusses variance. That's a lesson you still need to learn.

Re: Harrington on Hold\'em
I second that. That book, by the way, is probably Gambling Theory and Other Topics by Malmuth.

Re: Harrington on Hold\'em
Staying pre flop in the Small Blind too much. Not watching position when multi tabling.

Re: Harrington on Hold\'em
You play tournaments or ring?

Re: Harrington on Hold\'em
Ah, I gotcha I think. The poster wrote "multitabling" to mean multitable tournaments? I thought he was referring to playing several ring tables at once, online (the way I've commonly seen it used).
I play both tourneys and ring games, btw. -ptmusic |

Re: Harrington on Hold\'em
I play both ring and MTTs. I generally have a ring game going in the early stages of a MTT and then concentrate on the MTT when the field has been cut in half.
I play $25 and $50 NLHE and generally $5 and $10 buy in MTTS. I play on sites with good bonus programs and/or rake rebates. I recovered my April losses and went into the black in 5 days after adapting some of the book's theories into my game. I use PT and replayed some really bad hands. After this review the decisions that I made were a whole lot better. I finished 45th, 28th and 16th in three large MTTs after the read The best $30 I have ever spent on poker. cat923 |
