I always go with my gut feeling. There's been times when I've layed down low pair (pocket 2's) and a 2 came up on the flop. In my mind I'm thinking (WHY DID I DO THAT?), but my gut feeling was indicated when someone had a A-5 straight. The more you try to analyze this game, the more you begin to second-guess every decision you make. My "gut feeling" has yet to mislead me

Sometimes it's just your karma. I had the same problem for a while. I found that just sticking to it, watching my position and tossing those tough to toss cards and seeing they would have lost helps a lot.

thats why you need to raise...say 3x BB with AK or strong hands and then raise the same with a hand you would never play or maybe even low connectors just to change it up and keep them thinkin..
sometimes it pays to pay...if you know what i mean

Don't ignore the other players either when you get a great hand. Their's could be better. Pay attention to how they play. And if you're going to bluff, timing is everything. That's the part of it I haven't gotten good at yet. Sometimes, like last nite for instance, I'll make a bluff and then right after be like crap! That was the most obvious bluff ever! The guy read me well and reraised, something I couldn't call. I had A-K but missed the flop. Unfortunately, even if he didn't have anything my bad bluff let him win. Pay attention to things like that, but don't let them get to you. There's always the next hand.

Why must people be fools and call a large raise with 2-7's pre-flop?
If you have JJ and all over cards (A, K, Q) come on the flop and you are staying in to make a set...you are the fool my friend

I am the same way. I sometimes hate playing online because I tend to "overplay" and become inpatient. I consider myself average to slightly above average when I play smart, but I am flat terrible when I get too aggressive. Aggressive play wins big for a while, but loses bigger. But, if you want to win big, don't give up the nuts.

Everyone suffers bad beats its just part of the game, tighten up your play and if you just play the good hands aggressivly then you should end up making money.
AMEN! All hail Grum! I know it sounds simple but it is simplicity that should guide us, I have no idea what that means DAM wild mushrooms! *wink*

It is always good to play aggresive but ya gotta know when to fold. When in doubt...just fold. Why go all in and lose when you can just fold and forget bout it. Move on and keep playin ur strategy and don't be like alot of peoople and go...."Just lost a big hand....ALL IN CUZ IM PISSED". That gets me angry when I see that. But then I call him with rockets and its all the sweeter.

Are you being aggresive with hands that are meant to be aggressive with? Are you just betting a top pair with a weak kicker or something like that. Play tighter, you always want to allow yourself two ways of making your hand preflop.(unless pairs) but talking about drawing hands like straight connecters you want them to be suited preflop so you can make your hand more then one way. Unless like Big slick. And watch the board after the flop because if somebody has a straight or flush draw they are going to call it down pretty much no matter what. I know what Im trying to say but cant really type it all that well. If you maybe pm me and I will try and get it to where it would be more understanable. This is kinda of a starting point anyways.
Weak players tend to play anything for what its worth all the way to the end and keep telling themselve's storie's when they lose to make them selves feel better about the call. And play the what if game too much. Dont be like that and forget hands in the past... | | Read Entire Entry |

Keep the faith. If you have a bad beat, or someone gets lucky, shrug it off. Don't let it affect your play. You gotta keep your head in a tourney. Play the odds and play smart and eventually you'll come out ahead. You might just be having a bad luck streak. They come and go like the wind my friend.

When you play agressive, you really have to be extra attentive.. Most ppl make the mistake of playing this style, but not educating themselves about the table. Another post stated pay attention to "position", the "types" of ppl at the table etc. These items of the game are critical to any poker player, but especially to the Agressive player.
There's agressive smart, and then there's aggressive stupid. Without the latter, poker players wouldn't make any money
Keep perfecting it friend!

oh ok I see! cuz i let myself get really angry when i fold the best hand!
so i guess i need to forget about the past hand and just focus on the hand at play and if some one bets really aggressive i should go with my gutt on the preflop!
i apprecaite th advice and im going to try that the next time i play
