    Howdy to all you FTR regs, and congrats on reaching such a big milestone.

    I'll take a stab at the first question from OP.

    The biggest mistake that beginners make (as well as very good players) is simply playing too many hands. When you watch us on a TV poker show, it seems like we're playing every hand. But they edit out anywhere from 50-99% of the hands, depending upon the show. There are times, like if you're chip leader on the bubble, where it can be correct to play a lot of hands. But long term average, you're probably only supposed to be in there between 10-20% of the time at a full table of 9-10 players. If you're seeing more flops that this, it is definitely time to review your starting hand selection, and see if you shouldn't stop playing some of those hands.

    Later, Greg Raymer (FossilMan)
