Hey CCrs! What are your alls thoughts on whether a poker player should specialize or try to become proficient in several things? ( MTTs only, just hold em, just plo, etc) Ty!
perfect one and then move onto the next, i love poker so i try to learn as much as possible about every variation. I play cash for profit but MTT's are my one true love
I think a poker player should first, specialize in something. And then, from their, expand their knowledge/skills. For instance, learn hold em. Then, master sit n go's. Then MTT's, etc.
You play what u want and what u enjoy the most. Most players play holdem, other play only omaha. It`s not cuz they are forced to do it. If they dont like it they wont do it. It`s not called getting specialized, it`s called enjoying. Nothing stops you to play many games, like HORSE or 8-game, 10-game. If you enjoy every kind of poker you play it the most. If you dont you play the kind suits you the most. Skills come with practice. It is all about it.
First one must specialize in what more it plays, then it is nice to study on other modalities to be able to combine the professional part with some playtime
