5 main reasons people don't win in SSNL, IMO:
1. Going to far with marginal hands 2. Drawing with improper odds 3. Slowplaying too much 4. Bluffing too much 5. Not understanding the concept of pot control and WA/WB Just my opinion, but these are the common mistakes I see losing players make night in and night out. |

[/ QUOTE ] Nice list. 1-3 are especially common to all varieties of fish. 4 is my achilles heel. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] |

Under betting with strong hands. I guess it's kind of related to 3 (slowplay too much), but to me slowplay is disguising your hand by playing passively rather than making a girly 1/4 PSB bet with TPTK. |

Pre-flop: Play strong hands and play in position. Don't cold call raises with marginal hands (reraise or fold most hands). [/ QUOTE ] This is true in limit, but not in NL. I flat call all the time, far more than I reraise. NL works off of "implied odds", which I why you'll see me calling preflop raises with small pocket pairs and other hands that can hit a flop hard but are easy to dump if they miss. |

No thought about what you have. No thought about what you think they have. |
