I usually sit at the 5-10NL tables where I usually flirt with playing cards on a casual basis. So for a change of pace from Hold'em, I decided it's time to start learning the draw games. I know the gambit of HORSE, so I figured this might be fun.
I started with 5 Card Draw 2NL (yes I know 2NL, there to get a feel for the game, etc.) I've played about a week on my usual casual pace (1 to 1.5 hours a night).
The first couple sessions where, well interesting. It took me 2.5 sessions before I started to get out of the Hold'em and start paying attention to things, like how many cards they draw, folding stupid hands and just getting the general feel for the game.
After about a week and half I'm up about 2-3 buy-ins (Yeah I know, nothing to cheer about, but hey I'm not losing...... yet LOL). I feel I have an "ok" grasp for the game. What I was wondering if there are any tips/book/sites that anyone can point me too so I can learn a bit more before I move back up to my normal levels. Any direction would be appreciated.
p.s. I have to admit that it has been a fun, stress filled week and half of playing poker. Well deserved break from the norm.
