Well getting a subscription to any of those sites will help.

Watch as many videos as you can (especially the higher rated/more viewed ones), play as many tourneys as you can, start posting more (ahem, start posting) in the strategy forums, and post any tough or interesting hands you play or see in a video in HA. Guarantee it'll help your game

Point taken. Since I don't really post in the Strat sections, I feel like such a noob. My other problem is I don't have a lot of time. I'm off and on the pc at odd times throughout the day, when I have a few moments. Hell, I don't even really play as much as I used to.

+1, for Debi too.

Though, I remember one hand JQ posted, from an endgame of a tourney that I watched her play, from, oh, what, 1 1/2 years ago?




(pocket 88s you had? that's what comes to mind)

just go to stoxpoker.com (not logged in) and scroll through the free videos. It's one of those in there

I am already there watching one of his and it is very good. It may be the one you are talking about - it is "Tournament Player's Mindset."

And I am playing in the 80k at pokerstars and funny enough I had a similar hand situation to one he disusses in it. Not the same though - so I posted it in HA for you gurus to look at.

I am going to have to start getting up at a decent hour so I can have a video hour every day lol. This could become addicting.

In the other one I watched it was deep in an MTT and I watched a lot of hands. I was really proud that in so many of them he did almost exactly what I would do.

Except there was one glaring difference. He rarely played his SB the way I would have - so I am thinking I have a major issue to work on there.

I could watch that all day. rofl

lol i seriously sat there for about 5 min watching it over

on course for first $500 day, blah blah its only 5 buyins happens all the time during session etc etc, but coz of my uber cool low variance style, i actually have to run pretty godly to win 5 buyins in a day

[x] will now stop being a wimp worrying about 'have to at least make some profit this month' and will take a 200nl shot, although ill prob start losing the a,k vs aces now

graph does show off variance freeness though

 

[switch0723]

I just ate exactly approx 317 welsh cakes and now feel ill, brilliant

 

[vanquish]

wp sir

gl with the 200nl shot

 

[ChuckTs]

celebrated too hard dude

 

[vanquish]

i went to the mall and i balled too hard

-oh my god, is that a black card?

i turned around and replied,

-why yes, but i prefer the term african american express

 

[blankoblanco]

wham wham bam, gj switch

 

[vanquish]

my favorite part is how u can see each and every big pot won so the graph is just like steps going up to +7 buy ins

 

[Debi]

Great job Switch - nice day for you.

 

[Jurn8]
