Not being your true self

snoopy cool

Honesty is always the best policy. There's no need to be ashamed of what you do for a living and lie, or brag too much about how much mulah you're raking in. Coming across as humble and down to earth is far more profitable than beefing up your ego.

Not folding enough pre-flop

Creep

Over estimating ones cards can be a cruel lesson to learn. If poker has taught you anything, it should be to throw away your hand the minute you know it can't win.

Bum hunting

Just because you think grinding against her would be good for your win rate, doesn't mean you should keep following her to every table she visits!

Trying to buy her affection

too far

There's nothing wrong with spoiling a date or partner, but if you're using money as a way to harness respect and attention when you talk to women, you'll likely find any subsequent relationship to be as superficial as your morals.

Asking for a stake

Don't ask me for a stake

OK, so you're on a massive downswing and can't think about anything else, but you can't let it effect your game out on the town. Using your first opportunity at conversation with a girl to ask for a loan to gamble with will have you drawing dead every time.
