Is there something you still don't understand about poker?

How to track/take notes in live poker game, otherwise I would play more live games.

There are a lot of nuisances that I don't understand. Still having issues with calculating probabilities and implementing it into game. Actually, the more I play the more I think do not understand.

Relax my friend, maybe it's just transitioning to a higher level in your game.

Differance between a set and trips, I forgot

Why some people like to go all in every hand. No professional plays like that, so the level of amateur play, leaves a lot to be desired.....

Yes, I still don't understand how people, after playing for so long, still continue to pay with their hands like 72o

A "set" is when you have a pocket pair such as and hit another 6 on the flop for a "set".

"Trips" are when you have a hand like and the board comes . This is known as "trips".

I understand everything about poker, all its advantages and disadvantages. But unfortunately poker is a sport where no matter how good you are, you can lose to anyone and that makes it so essential.

No matter how much poker knowledge you have, you can always lose to a bad player who doesn't understand poker at all. So learning poker is always a pleasure and there are no limits to the poker business so you can learn more and more every time, the main thing is to want it who thinks they know everything about poker is a mistake

Yes, I don't understand why people still think NLH (and a little PLO) is the only game that is worth playing online.

The game rewards good players in the long run. But when you lose, you complain, rush to play more, and try to win back as quickly as possible, even when you know that you are not playing your best game. You're just trying to catch your luck. You don't understand that losing is the best friend for the quality of your game.Every thing you learn is valuable in itself. You won't learn to win overnight, you'll find little things here and there, but eventually you'll find your game and keep improving it.

I understand everything, but I can't control the bankroll

There are concepts like EV, which seem basic for a poker player, that I'm not very familiar with.
I still have pending the 30 days CardsChat course.

I would also like to study something, but as you say, I can't handle the translation at all, so it's chaos.

Hi
I can tell You about me. But maybe other little fishes do the same.
First of all, let me start by saying that I am writting about frerols. I was playing allins pre-flop when playing freerolls. For me, Freerolls was like a free lottery ticket. If I would win all in, my stack will be big enough for me to fight next deals. The blinds grow quickly and the range of hands to play is wide. If I lose, I don't lose anything, because there were no Buy-in. So, I counted on luck, not on skills.
I'm afraid many recreational players approach it this way. I would like to point out that I don't play like that anymore.

Second reason when I play all in with any hand... is just TILT heh sad but true. One Bad Beat and I am out. Look at the attachement- I was at 1st place playing main Fenomeno with 109 usd buy-in. I was so close to win it. (of course I start from fenomeno freerol and win all of steps I dont play such expensive turnaments) But after one bad beat I just play non stop alin. 1-2 minutes and I was Out. But i think it is also past and never will do this mistake.

For example - yesterday I got 77 on hand and flop was 755. I got Fulhouse. My oponent got 99 (Salute mr Vasco xD) - I will remember this till end of my life hihi). Riva gives him 9. He got stronger full. I was so sad. It was so hurt. But I just could congratulate for him his good luck. But I wanted to be still focus and not tilt. I like all of You so I was only sad, not angry or full of hate. Thanks to not being Tilt, something wonderful happened to me... I was able to play with you at the final table. I rose like a Phoenix from the ashes. Thank You! So I am also sure I will main Fenomeno and others to get bankroll 100.000 usd xD

I'm sure they must have read the horoscope in the morning, which said: "today will be a good day for your finances." Haha I once deposited about USD 1,000 into the casino on this basis. Horoscopes don't work. I lost everything.

There are things that I don't understand, it concerns my personal statistics of hands played, but this fact somehow doesn't bother me too much, considering that my bankroll is steadily increasing

Mostly reacting to a 3bet pre and post flop

The rule when quads comes up on the board.
does ace high always win the cash?

I dont understand casino rules about when losing hands are to be shown in live ring games and tourneys after calls or bets on the river .I often want the information but it seems like there is no consistent answer about who can ask to see the cards before they are mucked .

Lots and lots! I'd be a millionaire if there wasn't.

One thing I really don't understand, and I guess it's just a microstakes cash game thing. Players going all in for 100+ BBs in unopened pots when only the 1.5 blinds are in the pot. Or jamming for 100+ all in to a single standard raise when there's 4.5 BBs up for grabs. Who's calling that? Well sometimes they actually do, lol, but why don't they realise how much value they're missing out on because nearly always everyone folds.

Do they not actually want to play poker?

I'm sitting there with something AJ or KQ on the button, thinking this is a playable hand when someone acting ahead of me just goes all in with nothing in the pot besides the blinds. Easy fold! If they have AA, KK, QQ, JJ, 10 10, 99, 88 AK, AQ etc. and played normally they could have easily won some money from me. Weird.

If you want 1.5 BBs that much you can have them!

I still struggle with the bankroll management part
