Yes ask me anything.

I'm a newbie at this game and I probably have a lot of questions but I don't want to ask the wrong or irrelevant ones....

Ok I was expecting something crazy. what do you want to know.

I guess I'll start with the question as to how psychology comes into play, and how I could use it to my advantage?

reply

It was a couple of years back I got into it. I played in some local Texas Hold em tournaments here. I played regular poker , five card stud, draw poker , as a kid for pennies.

Psychology is overrated in poker. Keeping a "poker face", should be the least of your worries if you are a new player. A quick tip is if you are worried about looking nervous and are involved in a big hand, keep your eyes fixated on a spot on the table and don´t look anywhere else, until the hand is over. The most important part of poker is learning the fundamentals. In poker, you should always count your stack in "big blinds". This is basically the first step before learning about everything else. Hope that helps.

Thanks for the advice! Your input sounds reasonable. I appreciate it!

Not anymore. All my friends got great high paying jobs, but i'm still a scumbag, and low stakes poker just don't interest them no more.

No but I try to live by the maxim: Liquor up front, poker in the rear.

Poker? I hardly know her!
