[QUOTE="fugitive67, post: 1768815, member: 79042"] i learned NLHE from watching WSOP and WPT final tables ... i learned a lot of good info from that, but i also developed some bad tendencies, since let's face it ... the final table is some crazy / desperate / bully / sick call poker i had a bad habit of over-betting (betting full pot amt. ... going all-in on top pair, top kicker without being truly pot committed ... things like that, which made me vulnerable to losing more than i should when i ran into big hands) one good thing is that i developed a good feel for short stack play ... i sometimes amaze myself at how often i pick just the right situation to move in ... it's a tricky combination of cards/opponent(s)/position and experience i also learned quickly that you can't lose until you put that last chip in the pot ... i've come back from the dead many times ... if im going to bust, then im gonig to bust on my own terms i should read harrington's books ... i feel i play a similar style and could probably polish my game by reading it ... im sure i'll find that there are many things that im missing now that could help my game ... but i also value that my game is not a totally by the book game ... i like that feel and experience and of course ... how my opponents are playing dictate how i play another poster pointed out the fun / bored factor ... i didnt play poker for almost a year b/c i started to not be that much fun and when your bored u will lose ... but when i got back into it .. it was fun all over again ... then of course Black Friday, but im still managing to have fun ... i do hope to one day make some real $$$ ... it would probably come in a MTT .. those seem to suit my game best ... unfortunately, i dont have the bankroll to just MTT all the time ... so it's going to have to be micro SNG to build a bankroll and then maybe satellite into bigger tourney and then hit big and go from there [/QUOTE]
