Hi All

[Lucia]

Hi everyone,

Just wanted to say hi.

I've been playing PKR for some months now and must say I'm A LOSER
My main problem is I'm a coward, If I win a big stack I try and hold on to it and end up a loser anyway!

I got some poker book tonight and hopefully things will change!

Welcome to PKR Nation. Read some of our strategy and you wont be losing anymore

Before you play think that the money you're sitting with is already lost. That way you aren't emotionally attached to it and you can play freely.

Thanks for the advise, I've been reading up, so hopefully won't be losing money so rapidly now. I dont mind losing but when I'm topping up on a regular basis its no longer fun

What have you been reading Lucia?. I'm an avid reader myself, both poker books and anything else you can think of.

I just got "Brilliant Online Poker" by Paul Lester and from what I have read so far its very helpful. Also got Phil Gordon's Little Blue Book but its more for an advanced player.

I also realise I was just a lucky poker player and had no real skills!!

I wouldn't count yourself completely out though Lucia. With a basic knowledge of the game, someone can do reasonably well against the right competition. I think you're on the right path though. You're reading up with the intention of progressing your game and that in and of itself is a great thing. I guess I wound put myself in the same category. I've learned so much about so many things it's amazing. Like yourself I've learned a lot about my personal gameplay, skills, etc. Then there's game theory, strategy, poker math, maximizing profitability, you name it.

Let me know if you ever need anything.
