MSNL, Quick Help Me Write An Article
Hey guys.
I'm writing my next article for Bluff Magazine right now. It's due tonight. It's kind of about common leaks amongst average-decent players. I have an idea of a few and how to fix them, but this is gonna be a 2 pager AND it comes out right around the time of the WSOP ME, so I want it to be good. Can you guys list some common, important leaks that players have? I can credit MSNL or you specifically in the article if I use your ideas, if that's up your alley. Thanks. |

Re: MSNL, Quick Help Me Write An Article
Most players don't understand the importance of building pots and stack sizes need to play in making decisions.
For example I watched a hand in Tunica(2-5 NL) where you have to build a pot. FLOP A5J Player with A5 bets 25. Next player with AJ min raises. If the player with AJ makes a big raise he can probably get all the money in the pot on the flop. Instead the pot remained small. After the hand the player said that he wanted to keep the player in the pot. However he didn't realize that he would have been better off betting as much as the next weakest hand could call. Another standard error that I see all the time are players making calls that make no sense according to the stack sizes. For example calling off 25 dollars with a small pair in a heads up pot when they only have 100 dollars behind. The same problem is frequent when players are drawing and their opponents aren't giving them good odds or aren't deep enough to justify whatever play is made. |

Calling to set mine far too often especially in 3 bet pots.
Playing back at other strong players too often instead of just sharing the fish. Continuation betting too liberally |

Re: MSNL, Quick Help Me Write An Article
giving PFR too much respect on the flop. playing too tight in position. not raising the turn enough.
