Mistakes Eupho made in his first 1k hands
1) Just calling down with top pair decent kicker. I haven't won one of these yet. That should tell me something. Ive done it about three times (things like KQo on a K high flop, I raise preflop, he reraises, I check/call down and he value bets his AA on every street. Atleast if I raised somewhere I'd know to fold when he re-reraised.)
2) Limping behind other limpers with a good hand. Something like KQs after three limpers, I should raise, not limp and hope to hit. Setting myself up for disaster with that one when someone flops two pair against my top pair...
3) Losing 50/50s preflop. I gotta work on that .
4) Top pair top kicker is not an all in hand. I havent made this mistake yet, atleast in a huge way, but I used to. Some guy with about 1/4th of his stack left pushed and I called with TPTK and he hit a miracle, but no big deal.
5) I called one river check/minraise with top two pair. Im not sure if thats a huge mistake (is it?), but lets just say he had me pwned and played me like a flute.
6) Raising marginal holdings into short stacks. Do you realllllly want him to push over you when youve raised 3x with KTo? Cuz he's gonna!
Anyway, 1000 hands in, i'm doing well. Yesterday, my first day, I ended +$250 (200NL) which i consider pretty good. I took some lumps early today (see #1 above), but I'll get it back.
