What Poker Concepts Hold You Back From Becoming Good?
Hey--
On Friday, one of my bosses wants me to teach a few fellow traders as well as himself how to become a good poker player. I'm somewhat intimidated by this request because I feel like he has unrealistic expectations, but whatever. I'm hoping you guys can help me out.
What concepts do you think are most helpful for a beginning player?
What are the most difficult parts of the game for you guys?
I plan to cover:
1. Bankroll Management
2. Pot Odds/Implied Odds, Position n such
3. Tilt Control
4. Betting (hand protection, value bets, bluffs, etc)
5. Balancing Your Game
6. Forget Everything Poker Announcers Tell You (eg- The Hollywood Effect)
Dunno, I'd appreciate any advice you might have for me--everything is a blur so it's hard for me to remember when i was first starting out. I think my biggest problem was bankroll management...not sure about this other stuff.
Also, I can try to answer some questions you might have if that'd be helpful. But ya, any ideas on teaching new players would be good too.
Edit-- Woah, I just noticed a thread about ppl's leaks...ha sry, I'll read through that too.
