I just came up with another one

First you play your cards then you play your opponants

Or as I say myself before going all in

In it to win it

Keep a reasonable balance between enjoying yourself and making money.

Focus and balance.

After 10 pints on a friday night you are NOT Phil Ivey.

Lost my roll like that a couple of times over the years

LOL Martin... maybe your not BUT I am.

Best advice is in my sig: "If you fail to plan, you plan to fail"

I agree with this counsel and with your assessment of how it is often difficult to follow. As a good friend of Bear's, and someone who has played poker with him for a few years, I can confirm that he does live the words. I have never seen him lose his cool in all of the time that I have known him.

This is a good thread, it appears. Thank you muchly.

i'll add to this: pot committed means nothing if you know you're beat.fold.

I have another one I was told a couple weeks ago.

Folding is still winning money.

I have that stuck to my screen and it sure has helped.

PoKeRFoRNiA · Jul 10, 2014

Poker is about capitalizing on villain's weakness.

alext9000 · Jul 12, 2014

don't go all-in unless u re nuts

murko · Jul 12, 2014

Patience, timing, instinct and ability to fold
