My First Homework
Wish my luck
Question 1: What is your motivation for playing poker?
I think that poker is one of the best games ever created. It's interesting, funny, and can make you earn some money. Of course i do think that people must not think of poker as their primary income source, but it seems like to be the only one for me right now.
I am not a short-term goal oriented person, and i'm not going to withdraw the first won 50 USD or something like that. Of course, my wish to play poker better is to win, and to have a constant income from poker AS WELL, but right now i'm not oriented in withdrawing my bankroll.
So the motivation is to become a really good player, so i can make myself comfortable and maybe even popular in some circles of people.
Question 2: What are your weaknesses when playing poker?
Of course i have a lot of weaknesses while playing poker, and this is the main reason why i joined this school.
I am losing concentration now and then. I can't say i am easily tilted, but it seems like that. I am trying to be patient, but while playing on low limits, it seems like i am losing my patience. I think multi-tabling can help me concentrate and play only following the BSS Chart.
Sometimes i really want to see the flop and i can't really evaluate implied pot odds while playing. I am counting the odds and the outs but nothing more. Sometimes i even lose, because i didn't notice a draw in the opponents hand.
There was a good point of me i would like to describe. I used to read all the pokerstrategy guides earlier and i was playing on 4 tables. My friend asked me to share the screen, as he wanted to learn how to play poker. That time i was thinking on every move and explaining him , why have i done that. Every 1 hour session was about 100+ BB win for me.
So the hardest part seems to concentrate, as when i explained i never did something silly. i was even folding AA-s, AKs and so on. Even when i folded KQ and the flop showed KKQ , i never regret it , as i wasn't in position.
but when i'm playing alone, sometimes i do such silly things. Hope i can improve that.
Sometimes i lose with a monster against a weak hand, because i was minraising to increase the pot and in the end my opponent appeared to have the strongest hand. (I learned this lesson and i don't even do it anymore)
Question 3: What does it mean to play tight aggressive?
Tight affressive play for me is playing only good hands, without limpings. in this case i have to raise or to go all-in. in this case, we lose very few , as we fold everytime our hand is not good, and lose BB-s, if we don't receive a good hand on a BB. Otherwise we have to win.
