Finding the best bets at the best sites - so you don't lose your shirt
A baby step
Ok havent played as much as id like over the past few days and as such havent had much to write about, plus with my laptop out of action my hours are reduced..
Also i have been playing a wierd game of snakes and ladders with the bank of late up one minute down the next ive fluctuated between 230 and 170 for ages pretty frustrating..
Today im played a few sngs all no good the worst was chip leader in an 18 player 16$ omaha hi/low, with 6 left i got beat 3 pots in a row for high and low which left me crippled i could not believe the cards that came out i even had trips at one stage only for it to come runner runner 77 making him better house so didnt cash..
I took a step up to 50c/1 for a small while with 20 bucks and there was some bad fish at the table i got up a nice bit i mean i flopped quads aaaa on a aaa board and he bet into me twice untill i was all in, now if i had more money would he have played the same who knows but people do tend to play loser against short stacks so im thinking not..
Anyways after a lot of uneventful play my bank is now in profit of 170 i do intend to play a bit more tonight just cant decide cash gasmes or sngs and if cash what limit i'll probably drop down to 15c,25c and consolidate this money if i can..
Just a quick edit before bed hit 330 at one stage settled back at 301 so happy enough with things at the moment to a degree but im still not playing anywhere near good.. omaha is very hard 2 ways to play just have te nuts or get involved but people are willing to risk it all on some mediocre draws so u have to know your player..
Anyways never said i was a pro but i do think im learning from this which is good so only 780 to go maybe 880 not too sure..

I reckon you get a few readers mate - but as with most things it takes time for people to get comfortable posting.
I agree that writing about betting (be it sports or poker) definately helps you to analyse play and learn from mistakes.
