Finally Seeing A Profit

[GloBug]

O M G I tried to play a little poker tonight, I lost, but I think I am great at it.... A born natural.... NOT, ABSOLUTELY NOT!!! I don't know if I will be good enough to play with the anybody that knows what they are doing. (at this time) So if I can find a place to play with people, I mean slow people so that i will be the better one there, than, I can do that! That being said, I can tell you I will be good at it one day! Watch and see!

Your skills and patience are one thing.
The games you choose to play, make up a huge percentage of your success.
Sit and goes are great to make a small long term profit. Double up games are good too. The problem is that these games get boring after awhile because they are for a better word (lack the excitement). I do my best at playing in private games with money added. There are lots to choose from on a daily basis. You just got to look for them. When I played a 100 sit and goes a week, I averaged $100 profit a month. I quit playing sit and goes now and spend my free time on NDN forum and play added money games and now averaging $200 a month. Stay away from cash games and re-buy games.
Good examples of good games to play: $1 entry $50 added 17 players.
$2 entry $100 added 40 players. I played in both this week and there are 2 more this week.

Summary: stay active at NDN, choose your games wisely and make a profit.

Thanks for the great advice, freeringo, I really appreciate it. Do they have those kinds of games at FullTilt? That's where I like to play, as their blind structure is best.

Very nice things to hear here today. Those sometimes are just basic rocomendations, but i got to have it on mind every single minute of play. Like a famous saying about poker ( that poker is flame you have to control ) just like your mind. so, the most your remember those basic things like pacience, calmnes, and equilibrated mind, so u dont go tilt, the most you will win, and the most you will learn from it. Thats way i think poker is cool, because is like a meditation, you have to watch yourself 100% of the time. And ringo, yours advice are also very good ones, i´ve also trying to find those kinds of games. As all are privates, we have to be active in many forums. Thats a wonderfull oportunity to lean and earn. And NDN are one of the bests out there.

I will let you all in on a secret about other forums.
Most of them only protect their passwords on freerolls.
Their buy-in games (with money added) are not password protected.
You may have to register with site, but that's it.
Most players know this already.

Thanks... I have to orvercome that tilt that I lost 386 dolars. I think in total I deposited 175 dolars. Trying to withdraw 50. So there is 125 to go. Now I fell more confident with you guys giving all this support. My aim is to get at least 1K until the end of the year.

okay you are confusing me on how much u lost and how much put in all that. here is what u wrote on another post.


(wow. How long have u being into poker? on my poker story I just lost 100 dolars total. That a bad bad poker player status. so im negative 100, need to do something about it.)


ok say is it u lost $100 total on one site and $386 total all together?. im not getting u at all. poker isnt mainly about going on tilt. tilt is usually what happens when u get a bad beat. dont know to many people that get on tilt when just playing. poker is about picking your spots. and having patience. luck helps to. if u are so worried about being on tilt then u got issued with anger and shouldnt be playing till u seen a shrink. u confuse me alot. can u please tell me the str8 story.

Thanks for the encouragement Glo. And as I said also for the bad beats, I've learned from them! It's an honor to play at your table.
