Thank you everyone for your replies. Ive always been impressed by the forum, but now I am even more impressed.
It has taken me some time to find poker, i just hope that it is not too late, and that I have not missed the boat.
I have always had an interest in gambling and probability. I have studied other forms of gambling, however because I am generally a conservative punter, I end up turning away from them. I also find other forms of gambling such as horse racing, dog racing, sports betting to unpredictable, and a lot of the time, the results defy common logic. Where as in poker, there are not as many unpredictable ariables to deal with, so it allows me to concentrate more on my own skills and knowledge of probability, as opposed to gambling on something that requires a fair degree of luck.
Because I am a conservative punter, I tend to play some pretty tight poker, so hopefully this gives me a good foundation to start with.
I have researched and often taken the plunge into a lot of things, not all gambling related, however often I have found that I have been too enthusiastic and gone in too deep too fast, when i dont quite know what i am doing. In the end, I end up disenchanted by the experience and/or out of pocket, because I havent fully understood it. That is why i hope to take my time with poker and gradually ease my way into it. I still have the enthusiasm, however I want to harness it in order to learn as much as i can, as opposed to using my enthusiasm to jump straight in the deep end.
Once again, thanks for all your help, and I look forward to continuing my participation in this great forum.
