I'm sure you guys have a bunch of these...
but I wanna say hi. I've been what you might call a lurker for about 3 months give or take and I must say I enjoy this site very much. It has improven my game a lot and also given me conidence to stick to it even when it seems I can't do anything right.
I started playing in NLHE games just about a year ago at the local bar and then around April it hit me...I DON'T WANT TO BE A FISH ANYMORE!!!!! I kept losing, not because of bad luck, but because of lack of knowledge. I lacked the knowledge I needed to devolpe a style of play, to be able to control my emotions, to be able to calculate odds, none of it. I had no clue what I was doing.
With a little help from F.T.R., T.V., playing more and more, and a subscription to card player magazine I've learned a lot on how this game is suppose to be played and how when played right you can rake in the $$$.
At this point currently I still play a regular game at my local bar (with better results), online it's UB (Stars soon but not yet), a trip here and there to Foxwoods, and that's about it.
NLHE is the game for me (Omaha is facinating as well but one thing at a time). MTT, SnG's, Live, I love it all and of the suddle difference's in each of these types of games.
In closing I want to say that again that of all the on-line forums I've seen this one is by far the best and I look forward to talking (and playing) with you guys in the near future.
