Starting players have no idea how much this could help your games.

Some of these concepts have taken me literally months and months to learn and accept, and once I did learn and accept these concepts, my game changed dramatically for the better.

Yeah I agree, people understimate the spychological aspects of this game. In reality poker is a battle against yourself, the other players are just there to donate.

Tien,,,, you are making an impact [thumbs up avatar please] Thank you!

Write that [CENSURED} up..... though there may not be any 'payback' for you other than warm fuzzy feelings about helping out yer fellow man, blah, blah, blah. I always find the 'global' threads MUCH more helpful than single strat posts like "I have TPTK OOP against a Donk"

I'd be interested in a thread like that.

Thanks for this article, Tien.

Couldn't agree more.

In fact, that phrase could and SHOULD be said about life as well.

My payback is in the form of happiness people get when someone receives that helping hand at the start of their poker careers that I rarely got.

I thought back and realized that if I read those 2 articles I just wrote.... My poker life would have been much less painful.

If there is enough demand for that kind of thread.

Anyone who wants me to make a thread like that should post here so I can see how many people want one.

I would definitely like to see something like this done. My PF game isn't really too bad, but I get lost in some post flop situations.
