What did you learn after joining CC

LaMinaccia · Jan 11, 2010

So after joining CardsChat forum and reading a bunch of the threads here I learned to be a bit more aggressive in my already tight game and it has improved my game amazingly. There are hands I'm winning now that I would of never thought of taking down in the past and the pots I'm able to steal make me laugh at times.

So I guess what I should be saying is thanks Cardschat.

Better at stealing and bubble play for sure. Knowing when to fold has gotten easier as well since I joined.

dufferdevon · Jan 11, 2010

Learning that K-J UTG is not the nuts. Seriously, I have tightened up my play considerable, especially playing in position since joining.

Also, just talking to other players. I have now had impromtu coaching sessions with a few top level MTT players through MSN. Before joining Cardschat, I would never have thought other players would be willing to help another player play better.

I have learned to calm down and not get so mad as hell. I am learning to take bad beats better, but I still would rather shoot them dam donks for being idiots, but Im still learning, this is the most informational web site on poker I have ever found yet and a kick ass community of poker players, its awesome.

kybcat · Jan 11, 2010

Learned about bankroll management. Wish i knew this when i first started. Could have still been playing on the site money instead of my own. Also learned about some of the turicks player use to get you mad to pushed all-in, that one help me alot.

TopDonk · Jan 11, 2010

Well as I have just joined I havn't really learnt anything yet apart from lots of interesting discussion is going to come up often.

So I will post what I want to get out of cards chat, I would like to improve my overall MTT game and maybe learn cash(not sure yet though)

Also what I want to get out of the forum is to start talking and learning from better players than myself, I have heard how important it is to have a good group of friends to discuss hands/strategy with and I have no real life friends who play poker, so I have suffred in this department more than anything, so I hope to meet some good players and help others as I improve.

So thanks in advance cardschat

KingCurtis · Jan 11, 2010

After joining cardschat I have won over 25k in online tournaments.....that says something about this forum imo

phoebepussy · Jan 11, 2010

not as impressive as King Curtis but since joining cardschat I have become a consistant winning player making regular withdrawals

There are always posts to learn from even when you have been playing a while

Recently opened a thread just because I wondered what a tagfish was and was surprised to find I was one

buckster436 · Jan 11, 2010

CC did a lot for me, the first 3 years i won quite a bit, the last 1 1/2 years i have slowed down a bit playing games, but in the 4 years & 9 months ive been here at CC im still ahead of what i started with, thats what counts to me,, CC #1, Great Forum,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,buck

Velutha · Jan 12, 2010

I learned that a lot of people are unable to locate "the password" 2 seconds after joining CC.

JimmyBrizzy · Jan 12, 2010

Most of us are fish.

the lab man · Jan 12, 2010

I am still learning so much every day. I used to think I knew so much and how good I thought I was. I don't and I am not but it's improving.
Thanks CC

LaMinaccia · Jan 12, 2010

For the short time I've been here at CC I learnt a lot about poker but I also have to give props to "Rounders Radio" who brought the top 10 pocket cards to my attention and after that my game made the biggest turn around ever. I read a couple of books after hooking up with RR and now with CC in the mix my live tourney playing career is moving along nicely. :thrasher: Rock on CC.

NYRebirth · Jan 14, 2010

ive learned more about bankroll management and Variance

Stick66 · Jan 14, 2010

I learned what the blue and green dots mean.

Tonawanda · Jan 15, 2010

I've learned that you can't learn to play poker watching the WPT. But if not for the WPT, I wouldn't be here. It seems to me that the opinions, ideas, concepts and experiences that's shared by the members are invaluable. Being my first forum, I've also found out that you can really get to know people (from their posts) without ever meeting them.

superman4all · Jan 15, 2010

I have learned to control tilt and let my losses go! There is always another tournament starting that is gonna offer a nice first prize. I have also learned a lot about sng strategy and ank roll managment! So I owe just about my entire poker tool to CC. Thanks everyone

lektrikguy · Jan 15, 2010

The top 10 things I learned from Cardschat:

10. Be patient in the long tournaments-it's a marathon, not a sprint.

9. There are some freakin GREAT threads here-still haven't read all of them yet.

8. Way too many new people think they can join and get the passwords to the freerolls.

7. Dakota has a LOT of posts.

6. Bankroll management.

5. I'm not near as good as I thought I was.

4. There are starting hands that NEED to be folded out of position.

3. Don't post a link with Leann Tweeden topless.

2. I'm not the only one who gets sucked out on on Full Tilt.

1. The difference between cake and bastard.

RoTs · Jan 15, 2010

I've learned that unlike some sites the members here will help even the newest of players improve without all the criticism.

Roller · Jan 16, 2010

Not all Forums are created equally.

CardsChat.
Rockssssssssssssssssssss

AA is nothing but a pair.
Over and over I learn this.
Again and Again.

lol

swrittenb · Jan 16, 2010

Patience! I'm a really patient person in real life, but at the table, I have a hard time staying calm. CC has been a huge help in controlling the madness. Thanks, CC!!

wagon596 · Jan 16, 2010

Kenzie 96 · Jan 16, 2010

I learned that Dorkus Malorkus is a very, very, strange individual & (fortunately), that most Australians are in fact wonderful human beings.
