Re: Professional No-Limit Hold \'em Volume 1 Review Thread
I don't know what other peoples experiences are, but I've noticed this after reading the book; When I misplay a hand, I usually know right away, *and* know where I went wrong immediately.
Prior to reading the book, I would have to copy/paste a questionable hand and go back and study it to figure out if/how I could have played it better.
Now, I can say something like "Wow, I played that bad. I didn't get as many callers as I thought pre-flop and wizzed past the commitment threshold on the flop with a bet when my plan should have been pot control instead of bluffing a hand that didn't connect with the board. Now that I've got too much of my stack in the middle, I have to fold a hand that can't possibly be good here. Wow I played that bad. Ooh look, suited two gappers UTG. Hmm, maybe now isn't the time to mix up my play. fold. Hey - I'm getting better already."
Or something like that. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
