That is an important skill in poker.

It's harder and easier in online poker for that reason; it's so much harder to read people

You've basically got to shake up how you play all the time

If you're too aggressive people will learn that and always call you
If you're too passive they'll know when you have a hand and drop out

Yeah. Unfortunately, I don't think I'd be good when it comes to how much money to put in on an average hand.

 

[Irishteen]

The money you put in is more about who you're against than your actual hand

You have to learn how your opponents play to do well; if you throw in everything you could have no one call you or everyone could, you need to learn the table

That makes sense.

Those are the tougher ones.

Did you get in?

 

[Irishteen]

Thanks for the advice. How long have you been playing?

I told it on and off for a laugh when I was younger but started really getting into online poker over the last year or so and go through phases where I get addicted

Geez louise! That's like trying to buy U2 tickets all over again..

It's worse than U2 tickets

Did you get in?

I got in but hit it twice and then unregistered and then reregistered, funness



if you play for real money you can get $200 if you win a $1 tournament; if only I was willing...

 

[onebloodonelife]

Good luck then!

 

[Irishteen]

Thanks I'll need it

I decided to be crazy and register for 3 different tournaments

That one I was talking about
An Irish only one
And one with a chance to win entry to a bigger tournament

I can handle this...

 

[onebloodonelife]

I'm going to run to get some lunch; I'll be back in a few minutes.

 

[Screwtape2]

It's worse than U2 tickets

I have a hard time believing that, John.

And I thought I could multi-task.

Good luck!

I'm doing awful, I haven't got a hand yet so my chips are slowly disappearing

Come on Poker (Sun) God help me!

You'll probably have to make a bluff soon if things don't go well I'm guessing.
