Default requesting advice/review

made 50 at bet365 on a $50 deposit
lost 30 at crazy with a 100 deposit
lost 10 a lukto on a 50 deposit
now i've lost 43 in LESS THAN 120 raked hands at River Belle.

have i lost my winning game since the first time i played?

when i play, i play calmly.

(ps ive tried the following: groups 1-3/4 of sklansky, this chart http://www.bonuspros.com/images/startingchart.jpg , and lee jones's low limit holdem starting hands - dunno if that matters)

iloved it when i started and was making money - now im down a fkload and i fell pretty ill.

seriously, someome please tell me how my play is wrong.

i uploaded the big pokertracker transaction summary - dunno how to cut it down to just my info.

alias is ddpoker012

Sample size is way too small, and from what I read in your post it seems like you are playing in limits that you cannot afford.

It's not a bad thing to play .02/.04, .05/.10, and .10/.20 on stars until you have the roll to play .25/.50 for bonii.

Read SSHE. Don't be so results oriented, I would imagine your sample size here is small. If having a bad couple of sessions, focus on fundamentals. Am I playing too many hands (u have hands chart that's good), do I calculate my outs and my pot odds during every decision.

Maybe it would help if you could be more specific about how you play. Just stating your pre-flop requirements and then describing your game as "calm" suggests that you'd be better off focusing more on theory at this point and play lower limits until you have got you basic game down.

I would also recomend against the combination of suggesting that you are inexperienced with giving out your alias on a poker forum.

Good luck with the studies

You need more than just starting hand charts. You need to know when and in what circumstances to play or raise different hands.

You also need to learn how to play well postflop. Everyone needs to constantly work on their postflop play !

So post and respond to some hands on this forum, and you will be well on your way to improving your win rate. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Damn, I lost lots more then that when I was just learing.

Start at the lowest limits available, and I do mean .02/.04 at Stars. Wait until you get bored with how easy the game is to beat, then move up 1 limit, repeat.

Bordom includes making money! If you want to move up for a reason like "they don't respect my raises" then you need to move down.

And here moving down includes the play money tables! Play as cheaply as you can because your play *will* cost you money until you really understand the game.

Although not being "results oriented" is good advice in some situations, it sounds to me like you have not invested much time in learning about the game (correct me if I'm wrong). Before you go back to the tables, I suggest you read Small Stakes Hold'em because it will give you detailed information about starting hands as well as how to play after the flop (which is actually much more important, although much more difficult to do well).
Also check out the MicroLimitLibrary

http://poker.wikia.com/wiki/MicroLimitLibrary

Good Luck

I didn't know that Microlimitlibrary existed...awesome! Nice Job whoever put that together.

OP: Read Small Stakes Hold'em, play .5/10 till you got some bank(earned bank), post hands, whore it up.

Took a glance through that file...

I'd say you need a little help with concepts of pot odds and pot equity.

Have you been reading books?
