[Closed] I'm Just Too Good to Be True - Talic's Road to Poker Stardom

Talic · 2008-06-13T00:02:27Z

Hi and Hello, I am Talic, but I play with another nickname (for privacy), I started to play online in January, this year. I wanted to start play online and somehow I had find Pokerstrategy.com so I didnt have to deposit my own money. =) Actually I had my own Blog (It was more likely just introducing with PS and PartyPoker) in the Newcomer Forum so if you want then take a look, under that another (funny or important) threads by me :P: Bonus from quiz - it is possible transfer it on already exist. play money acc.? Database Imported but no stats in Overview, Analyse and so on, Elephant 0.49 New Monitor SNG $3 Pokerstrategy Video by helemaalnicks I'm 20 years old guy, from Czech republic, lets say near Prague, You dont know other cities in CR anyway :tongue: . I just studied high-school, at this time I should have been graduating but what happened, I was interested in everything but school so I hadn't school attendance :rolleyes:, hopefully I'll pass the graduation in September. And then hurray to economy university... Author's comment: I dont like to say my nickname because I am not that good to be faced (maybe) hordes of treasure-fish-hunters. I am also playing live-poker with friends from my city. But in last months that was absolutely unprofitable, I have lost so so much money :(. We play in 3-4 people, every player has to post BB, without rasing preflop. Postflop it is No Limit but withnout check-raising or raise-reraise-rereraising. All of them play so agressive that almost every hand is all-in or nearly that, I am way too tight becaose I dont want to rebuy again and again. They arent poker pro's, they dont even know odds of hitting your str8 from OESD. I only hope they arent cheating (in dealing cards and board, I dont know it is hard or not), so if you have some useful suggestion let me know to improve my game :P. ...In start of my online poker career I have played some wierd SSS and when I won enought to full buy-in I continued playing something like BSS. It works so I little bit boosted-up my balance. How the time continued I switched to BSS, on NL5, partypoker. I liked it here, It wasnt difficuilt here and I was lazy (and frightened :() to move up. So I just highered up the balance and I didn't higher the stakes. At some moment I found out that I was actually playing for some crap money (when you have 500$ balance and you're playing NL5, than the 5 bucks dont mean anything to you, so I started to play bad)... Author's comment: Honestly I didnt know what to do and I wasnt taking poker that seriously in that time...another worries than poker... you know... when I had free time I played it for fun, or when I came earlier from pub I played for fun :baby:. Actually I never was that bad to start loosing but to bring a stop is almost equally bad as be in downswing. ...The best players say that position is the most important thing in poker, Pokerstrategy says that it is the strategy, from my personal opinion and experience all of you're so wrong ;). The most important thing is dont be feared and dont start tilting toward any reason. Fear is trully mind killer and when you're affraid of loosing you will stagnate and therefore start tilting, then you want to boost your bankroll again so you go to NL50 (when you were ordinary NL5 player). The answer in 95% wouldnt please you... Author's comment: And after you pass this (actually noone will absolutely pass this but after you'll start really taking poker as a game of variance in some point and understand that if your Aces against Kings preflop have to hold up, they must also in 1/5 time loose) than the most important thing for you will be game reading, reading your oponents. And then is here some space for strategy and position :tongue:. Every single moderator will tell you stick to the strategy, but you never should do that against your reads. Because than you could be very easily playing only your hole cards, and Hold'em is very more complex game even on internet. What separates pro's from the others is the very game reading. ...Back to the main topic. I think I worked on my attitude to poker and on the psyche too. My old LCD made a little home party with some flaming :], but he actually didnt recovered. So I bought BRAND NEW 24" LCD BENQ in Black (which is actually silver X( ). For my old graphic card this is like road to Golgota, everyday again and again... Author's comment: So as you can see I would like to build up proper bankroll for investment in new computer (on the old one the monitor sometimes goes black for 1-2sec, even once it turned black for steadily, when I was calling all-in with Aces (which I didnt catch). ...So now I am multitabling NL10 and multitabling 1$SnG (when there are more tables which are being opened). Sometimes I play 3$SnG but I am little bit scared of the variance in this high-stakes (for me) SnG's. Sometimes I play LH 0.25/0.5 and sometimes NL25 o...
