Poker profitable? Or not?

If it is played smart, it sure is. But until you can play it smart, a lot of experience and study is needed. Just check some guys on sharkscope leaderboards

Hi, I have a more general question, not a hand analysis, but it might fit in here.
Who has a strategy for cash game - when is it worth to leave?
It often happens to me that I get about 1 buyer in about 1 hour.
My experience has been how to build a bankroll this way in the long run, even if I get out of the game.
If I go on, there are more chances to win, obviously you can win more, fail what you already had, or go into the minus and suffer to beautify
Obviously, if I have a huge edge, I'll continue ...
So whose cash-game exit strategy is that?

poker is also like chess

I was wondering if I should do a video and then put it somewhere and whoever wants to watch it, analyze my game, maybe give me 1-2 useful info and if I'm really bold then maybe I could learn my game

kucu2014 · Nov 26, 2019

The game didn't go today .. I wasn't mentally there. I made moves that if I looked back I would have played 10/10 otherwise. Unfortunately, I still have such typical fish innings and sometimes I do things like that, after only about 10 seconds, I realize what the hell I was doing shit now ?!
But now I have found some pretty serious leaks in my game and I have a conscious need to work and develop.
I'm still motivated and there is room for improvement both mentally and technically.

Hááááááááááááááááát ...
I practically didn't have to play much in the tournament because I barely got a card for my ultra tight style ...
Then I doubled up with a limit hand:
BB AJs Hijack 6 (!) Raised the big blind to 11.5 BB.
You show AQs
Turn down J
Anyway, at least I realize it wasn't the best game for me .. I still have a lot to learn to handle these

kucu2014 · Dec 11, 2019

Sometimes I feel a little hopeless, it seems as if I am not going anywhere and would rather spend my learning time grinding. One thing that always seems encouraging is that if I look back at my game and thinking this time last year, I can clearly see that there has been some progress. So, for the most part, I manage to go in the right direction, not just going around.

I haven't reached the 10k hand in almost 2 weeks, which is quite worrying.
In addition, my winnings are about zero, if at all.
I looked at my parties about what I had lost with such a cooler, but on the fax it was indestructible, about set vs over on a dry board, flop line vs flop line, of course the smaller ones like me adorn the week. I'm not complaining so much because I haven't lost anything compared to these, which I can appreciate very much (it's terrible to list them as positive, but it is).

I think I'm at the point of reevaluating what the plan is for poker. This was pretty much done during the rest. Unfortunately, there have been privacy changes, the good thing about this is that I have enough time to play poker. But since I have plans to replace my six-hour-a-day workplace in the morning, I have to decide what level of poker I want to deal with. I'm going to have to give myself a plan and a deadline to decide when to play poker or to switch and look for a new job.

kucu2014 · Dec 21, 2019

Today I lost 4 out of 5 games:
88 with me AK preflop allin ... comes with A
K6 flop KK10 turn 10 allin-call river 10,9 with me ...
Flop K72 I have K10 A7 all-in call and turn A ....
I have KK at my A5 pre-flop all-in call with A.
Good thing I don't have a stucco I shot myself already ....
So miserable to be ????

Easy answer - yes if rake isnt so big and you are skilled. You gonna win in long run even if luck isnt in your side most of the time.

kucu2014 · Dec 23, 2019

Due to lack of purpose and time, I tried something different today.
Today's session was a $ 0.50 turbo for 45 people, of which I pushed 10 and made a profit of + $ 2.50.
It was a bit weird because I haven't pushed a lot of turbo and a little bit different but soon I start getting used to it.
I have already decided that my only goal is to keep the weekly fixed profit of $ 50 a week.
I chose this because I often don't feel like spinning and just to have the quantity I will not push without motivation.
So in the future it might change to such a diary.

Recently, I was trying to put my mind together to see how my poker journey was, and although it was not easy, it was good to remember what happened in the past. It's good to look back at the end of the year

kucu2014 · Jan 3, 2020

Thinking back to this bumpy road, which has missed more or less, but has been for over 4 years and has brought a wealth of lessons. The only key is that you should not give up, if you have decided and you really feel good in this atmosphere you will always start over, you will not actually give up.

Poker is first entertainment , relaxing game (for me) , and luck have high influence on game. Where luck is part of game , dont invest too much in that , just for fun. If you earn some money playing poker - great , if you loose - also good. Profit of poker players have owners of casinos and poker rooms , 2 billion people play poker and how many of them are pro ?? Think about that , and couple of pro players also have bankruptcy . So, play for fun , dont spend more then you can and enjoy in game.

gambling of any kind is never profitable, just some lose less than others.:icon_boun

Last time I have some profit.
But Poker has some dispersion, so maybe should check not once a month but once a year?
If I loose several tournaments I play freerols or micro micro limits and when I take some prize again play in normal game.
By the way are you talking about cash or tournaments?
If you loose in cash try to play tournaments...Try to change limits maybe also type of game - I mean Hold'em or Omaha and etc.

For me, playing poker for money is not profitable. For people who know how to play and often win it is profitable.

Poker isn't gambling. It's a game of skill The laws of probability reveal that poker is a balanced game meaning that half the time you will have the winning hand and half the time you will have the loosing hand. The imbalance comes from how correctly you play those hands.

kucu2014 · Jan 6, 2020

Still, there were a couple of scenes that I was looking at in a particular range. I wanted to believe I had what I had. Then my opponent "didn't you want that?" exclaimed. I got my head on it even though the stakes seemed to be good. I only do a few less per turn, and I can increase my income / benefit again. Even if it is small, but it helps my development.

SLazarov · Jan 7, 2020

Guys, how long have it took for you to make it profitable? Well at least to make 1500$ monthly?4

Lorpugo · Jan 7, 2020

nobody in this chat is making 1500$ per month.

kucu2014 · Jan 10, 2020

This doesn't seem to be my week ...
I couldn't win today and to use this "commonsense": The system is cheating !!!
They have been popping their nose in the nose for 4 days and I get 80-20 of these 10 times 4x.
Flips have also been lost above average lately.

kucu2014 · Jan 20, 2020

I would be interested in your opinion that after a long session, for example, I find it very difficult to sleep. It's like if my brain didn't want to stop. What do you do to sleep at this time?

chuckycheese · Jan 20, 2020

secret to winning is patience patience and more patience even then you will have bad beats set a limit and if you lose come back tomorrow poker will allways be there take a week off if cards are running bad they wont close the doors they will be there when you comeback
