It is an exciting game, but it is also unpredictable and the more experience and knowledge you gather the more you reduce the unpredictable part!

Everything in life that is practiced frequently becomes almost a habit. And certainly the continuous practice of poker makes us a quality player.

If you knew what you didn't know from what you thought you knew, you would know a lot of things!

I agree with your implication that knowledge comes from experience. However, it's not a guarantee. The proper work must be done to improve (i.e. reflection and improvement).

Poker is not improvised, it is studied and practiced, over time when we already have enough knowledge about the game it will become an art since trying to "guess" the cards your opponent carries and achieving it makes poker an art .

Poker is like life itself, you can win all the time, but whoever laughs last (river) laughs better

Can you clarify what you mean by, " Philosophy is elementary?"


In my opinion, philosophy is elementary. It all depends on your patience, discipline and desire to achieve the goal. That is, everything is in your hands, and only you are fully responsible for your results.

Yes, I agree and would say that is a truth. :)

...and thank you. I wasn't exactly sure what the term "elementary" was being used for, but now I understand. :)

To achieve something, you need to play a lot. Over time, the level of the game will increase or the player will earn a mental illness something like depression.

I'd like to refer Doyle Brunson quote -Poker is war. People pretend it is a game.
I believe this is the philosophy of all gamblers, you sit play to win, nothing else. I doubt some people when I see them saying - I play for fun, I love game only etc. Certainly poker is complex and perfect game, it's even addiction for most people. But if you play with your money in it, you won't be there only for fun. Sometimes philosophy is simple - I'll lie if I have big hands or absolute nothing doesn't matter, I'll take your money.
Understanding the game takes lot of experience.
Also, it's teachable at some aspects.

Correct. With each hand played, the intuition grows stronger.

hello

The more you know about the game, the more experience you will win more than you will lose, you have to put it into practice! It is useless to know how to play if you don't play the same thing happens if you play a lot without knowing !!! regards ..
