Like this ^ post for example?Im told I play well for a new player. But I keep making stupid mistakes that makes me lose money
My question is, is it normal to make mistakes when you are just a beginner?
Ok Im On the button with AA fold around to me big stack on BB and I raise 6x the BB and BB calls and hits a st8 on the flop hes has 56h call down my bets.. and says my play is bad....
For your benefit of the OP, the top newbie mistakes in poker as listed by the opinons of all us fine fish at CC.
- Being impatient. Forcing action without good ground to stand on.
- Being results oriented - "I lost the hand so I must have done something wrong" or "I won the hand so I must have played it right"
- Not knowing where you made your mistake (assuming there was one). Many players assume they screwed up on the flop or turn and many times they screwed up just being in the hand to begin with.
- Thinking you are a better player than you actually are (newbie or not).
- To be continued by someone else....
My question is, is it normal to make mistakes when you are just a beginner?
Well yes it is..... seems some are willing to help If you have something to add Thx.......Wooooow. Is this a serious question?
Oh yes - and often accompanied by the "I SHALL NOT BE BLUFFED" mantra just before having to hit the ATM.Typical newbie mindset....."He's trying to bluff me"
Just to add to MediaBlitzs common mistakes:
-Taking offence when better palyers tell you that you played a hand wrong
-Open-limping
-Calling pre too much
-Completing from SB
-Min-betting
- Bet sizing in general is usually completely appaling with no appreciation for stack sizes
-Not having Auto top-up on
-Buying in deep and not knowing how to adjust to 250BB
-not adjusting right against opponents
-not knowing how to play effective stacks
- lack of positional awareness
-Shortstacking
-Only playing their own hand
-Thiking in terms of hands insteads of ranges, never put someone on a specific hand.
-Not thinking about their perceived range
-Not having a plan about what to do if re-raised when they raise
-Not having a plan when they call turn aboout what they will do on river
-Not understanding why they are betting , e.g. I have middle pair and it's checked to you IP on river so betting it for the sole reason of well I have something
-Not considering equity against ranges
-Running at like 25/3
-Thinking 40bb/100 is standard and that yo uare now an amazing player for going on a sick heater
-Not analysing sessions.
I can think of more but that's enough for now.
