Every poker player is sure to think of themselves with a positive amount of strengths. Poker is liked soo much I believe because obviously the thrill of competition. Also its individual so any accomplishment you take allll the credit for right? What about your weakness as a player? I have a ton. But my main two are boredom and discipline. When I get bored and cant get into the games I want at that certain time I have horrible game selection. Which leads to horrible discipline for bankroll management.... OK your turn!!

My Opinion

My weakness is chasing so I suppose you call it discipline. I chase two hole cards and the other player seems to always have ace/ace. Seems like its rigged but its a good win if you wait it out. Then the cards are rigged in your favor. You have to factor in the other persons game and end up giving them the advantage of the 50-50 card battles if the person deserves it.

Strengths:
- disciplined BRM
- good understanding of variance
- lack of tilt (closely related to both BRM and understanding of variance, imo)

Weaknesses:
- auto-piloting / not paying enough close attention
- playing tired (closely related to auto-piloting)
- a tendency to opt for showdown when in doubt (i.e. too much bluff-catching / hero-calling at the micros)

ya i get this i will play 8-10 hours go on a roll and its a day later im like damm take a shower get offline haha

is bad when i get hott lol

anyway not sure of weaknesses i have no fears I feel like when i sit at a table i own the table so weakness might be pride but im not one to think if you cant envision something that you could make it work

I love playing so that helps but is not much weakness do i see strengths in others I dont have sure

Weakness of playing perfectly over and over and not winning? Is that a weakness? Not sure if have a few bad days know to take some time off.

Poker is funny just got to have strength where its needed you get hot push it why you can this usually doesnt last long so have to win big when you can

I like that Tick. I agree with what you said. I really gotta work and once again I proved myself right again by not getting up from the table because this greed in me seems to tell me play one more hand play one more one more blah blah blah. I need to tell myself some kind of excuse why I need to do something else because enough is enough!!
