It\'s not possible to win at online poker.
 

Well, that's just what I think because I have no confidence when it comes to poker. I have lost a lot. I don't lose because I am a bad player, I know deep down I am very good and I do win when I try my best. I would mostly lose because the stakes were too low to grind resulting in careless play, not caring about winning, feeling tired and impatient, or because I thought I wasn't good enough to win and I would blow my chips on draws.

What can I do to build my confidence? Besides winning because I am not playing right now.

For some reason I just think it's not possible to win at online poker. Can some winners post what game and limit they play and how much they have won and things they have bought please?

i think u should admit that you aren't good and go from there and be willing to learn how to win.

The answer obviously is to play for higher stakes.

1. Play live.
2. Get all in with worst hand.
3. Take your chips off the table and leave casino before paying.
4. Profit.

LOL!

No, i don't suck. I am a great tourney player. Patience would always get me though. I can easily grind out cash games and win if I wanted. I have had good wins in tournies when I was put in and had no choice but to play my best.

It's funny how someone says they might be a very good player and you guys jump all over them out of jealousy, especailly because they are not sure if they are really that good and because there is no proof.

"I am a great tourney player"
"I have lost a lot"
DNC

Re: It\'s not possible to win at online poker.
 

You suck and you are rationalizing your sucktitude. Your OP shows a fundamental lack of poker understanding.

"[Paraphrased] I am a good player, I could win if I wanted"
"For some reason I just think it's not possible to win at online poker."
"[I thought] I would blow my chips on draws."

Who are you fooling, cuz it sure ain't us?

Re: It\'s not possible to win at online poker.
 

interesting post.... Surely if you get bored at lower limits then play for higher stakes... [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

You're probably not very good. Most of the winning players can play with their eyes closed and still profit.

Re: It\'s not possible to win at online poker.
 

You have to want to win and be very methodical about it. Have patience read books play within your bankroll and skill level limits. Maybe hire a coach. If you can't be patient and manage your money you have no chance skill or no skill.

Confidence is not your problem, your dictionary is broken...

Some definitions of Good:
- having desirable or positive qualities
- adept: having or showing knowledge and skill and aptitude
- effective
- resulting favorably

Some definitions of Bad
- having undesirable or negative qualities
- below average in quality or performance
- not working properly
- that which is below standard or expectations

Re: It\'s not possible to win at online poker.
 

All you did was make excuses. Like "well, I win, but I play tired or too low to care" Sounds like excuses for -EV play.

You also probably suck and are overally confident in your game and can't admit your holes/ won't listen to advice on how to improve.
