heres some advice, now this might sound a bit radical but it might help. GET A JOB! if you think you can pay your rent for the summer with only $200 dollars after playing for 6 months, good luck. even some of top pros weren't winning consistently when they first started. oh yeah, bankroll management might help too.

unless this was an extremely loose table you should have at least considered folding preflop. he raised it to 6xBB in early position, then you have one caller before it even gets to you. if you knew the first raiser was loose and it was folded to you its okay to call, he's not going to get lucky with 7 2 everytime, but you had to think that at least one of them had two overs on you if not a higher pair. say one of them has A Q and the other has K J, there are 12 cards in the deck that can beat you and if one has 99-AA you HAVE to flop a set which only happens about 10% of the time. neverthele

poker players like to lie. i won 10 grand just last month. but seriously, there are literally MILLIONS of people playing online, the winning players will boast about it while the losing players say nothing.

i dont really know either, im only 18 but i havent deposited anything into my account, i dont know the rules and im a poor college student. you might want to try royal vegas, they have absolutely %100 freerolls twice a day (you dont even have to play raked hands) so i just do that. then if i place in the money i use it to buy into 1$ tourneys.

i didnt do too well either, i was pretty disappointed. i had a great chance to doulbe up 40 minutes into it, i know noboby likes bad beat stories, but i'll just say i was over a 95% favorite to win AFTER the turn. good luck next week to those who made it.

it won't be the same not seeing #19 out there, but they just need to get the game back on the ice. this lockout nonsense is KILLING ME!!

seems like there are some hockey fans here...GO RED WINGS!!!!!P.S. when was the last time the leafs won a cup? did they have ice back then?

someone with a high iq may have some natural skills to help them succeed at poker, making it easier for them, but if you have a low iq you are still certainly capable of being a great poker player if you take the time to learn. (kinda like how its so much harder for the fat kid to make the basketball team in middle school) unless of course you're so mentally retarded you can't keep your own saliva in your mouth, although it would be pretty tough to get a read off an opponent like that.

i live in tx too, that probably would happen. my roommate can't sleep unless there's a gun and a bottle of jack daniels under his pillow. I dont know which one he values more.

anyone from dallas is awesome. but seriously, does anyone else think david williams looks like tim duncan with sunglasses?

Does anyone know where I can find a good, extensive odds chart? I've found a couple with just the odds of hitting your outs. What about odds of one had beating another hand? For instance, the odds of a low suited connector beating a high pocket pair. I havent been able to find anything like that. Does anyone know of one?

I am relatively new to playing poker, (I've only been playing seriously for about 6 months) and I was curious what you guys could share about bluffing. I recently finished 2nd in a $200 freeroll on royal vegas and had some money to play at real money tables with (I dont want to deposit money because I'm a poor college student). I went to a .25/.50 no limit table. I think that was my first mistake, I should have started at a limit table because its not as easy to lose a lot of money. One thing I noticed is that I often came across a player that bet or raised almost anything. He had to be bluffi
