Learning to Clog Your Holes

I would be rather interested to hear how individuals clog their holes in their games... to become better players. You can always read hand histories at a later time... problem is you wont always see the holes in your game. Truth be told I believe without someone watching and helping it can be difficult to spot your own weaknesses.

And that is why you join such a wonderful poker forum like Cardschat.

Look at some of your hand histories and ask yourself if you could have played each hand better. Saving chips, extracting more chips from players, etc.

I dont really think hes asking how to clog holes, I think he is just making a statement that you have to talk it over with other people to clog holes.

Maybe I'm wrong.

I analyze my own play and hand histories. I ask myself, could I have just folded this iffy hand before the pot got too big? Did I reraise this player too much, that only the nuts will call me? Did I value bet the nuts too much, that the other person had to fold his second pair?
