When I started I had a lot of mistakes but every month I'm playing better and try not to make mistakes especially at high stakes. I study how their mistakes and the mistakes of other players.

Certainly better to learn from the mistakes of others! But there is a big problem is that so hard to learn - and I, for example, learning on the mistakes of others, but is still sometimes doin their own - are the same as other. I think many are doing as I.

Both. The more hands I see played wrong/ineffectively the better I get. The hands I lose personally seem to impact my game more tho. I replay a bust out hand and think if the hand should've been played differently. Obv the way I played it was wrong. So I rethink my play. Obv when I see a big hand played out and see where the losing player went wrong I try to remember the misstep so I don't make it.

Yes, I do. A good player should be able to learn from the mistakes happened in the past. This kind of ability is necessary to improve your game.

You learn from their mistakes or the mistakes of other players?

I learn from both of them, but I remember more when is mine mistake recalling similar situations, learn playing and not repeating the same mistakes, or try not repeat it.

Trying to learn from both, but let's be honest, your own mistakes can teach more effective. Especially if you lose big money due to them.

I think you can learn from both your mistakes and other people's mistakes. The key is not to stagnate at one level.

I observe others and also myself. It's easy to make wise conclusions but sometimes I still make stupid moves even if I know that it will be bad.
Learning is important and training to get goos discipline is also important.. et least for me.

Obviously better if you can learn from the mistakes of others (cheaper too!), but I find my own mistakes make more of a lasting impression. Evaluating hands where I made the wrong play and figuring out why (and how to avoid next time) seem to help me more. Also, I find watching twitch feeds by pros who explain their actions helps as well.

The perspective of the mistake, how is the mistake made, meaning past the mistake itself how would the situation define the action? The villain making the mistake is their factual evidence the hero induced the mistake, or did the villain voluntarily make the mistake? Was the mistake made from the villain done on purpose for strategy reasons? Does the villain have the ability to think of mistakes on that level? Would the hero recognize, think on this level to play back at the villain?

However, fixing mistakes are universally understood to make the hero’s game better. The hero will then recognize their own fixed mistakes in other villains to gain bets for the betterment of the hero’s game.

When applying this process, here lies some questions, after each increment of gain, does the gain from fixing the mistake, then stall their game because of the hero making their game better, did this kill some of the action from not repeating a once mistake in the hero’s game? Does the hero recognize to put their game in the same situation with the knowledge after fixing the mistake for now strategy reasons?

For example, the villain that has less ability when exploited for extra bets will not make obvious mistakes in the short term again that the hero can predict will happen over X amount of time; however, when the villain gives extra bets and the thought is still fresh, the hero has opportunity to induce the same action of taking bets from the villain when made obvious for the villain to put their game in the exact same situation to exploit the hero in the same way the villain was exploited.

This situation for the villain is now to voluntarily bluff at the pot for the hero to make an extra movement because the villain does not understand the hero’s full abilities, and for the villain now to be caught in a different way for them to fold, then voluntarily give a nice pot to the hero without showdown in a induced bluff situation.

The villain sees these situations as a way to get back bets they lost in recent situations because the villain sees the same opportunity to get back bets from the hero in the same manner in which they lost those bets because the hero knew to make this mistake obvious to the villain in a different way to further exploit the villain.

The hero needs to keep putting their game in vulnerable situations after fixing their mistakes for future situations can further exploit villains, then when putting the hero’s game in these spots, the villain may surprise the hero, and this is a spot to recognize a better villain as well as the situation the hero put their game which was exploited by a better player.

Recognizing the hero’s abilities as well as the villain’s abilities, this allows for gains because of fixing mistakes, recognizing better villain’s abilities, for the betterment of the game, the need for mistakes made by the hero, and the villain in situations naturally, induced to further gain on the game of poker.

I try to learn from yours mistakes. I did enough mistakes to learn poker :D. I always try to improve my game and analyses of my hand and potentional mistakes are big part of this. My advice for other players is to analyze their poker hands, all poker hand when you win and when you lose. You can find many youtube videos when some poker pro analyze hands. I watch this videos when i have time and so much i learn watching that. Analyze yours hand and wach how some poker player analize hand is good recipe in my case. Advice for players save your interesting hand that help you to make analyse in every time when you wont.

I think this is a good way to study, because you can understand what pass in the mind of other players. This is going to help to improve your game.

It is difficult to learn from the mistakes of others, I learn from my mistakes. my main errors are to lost when I have the second best hand, those mistakes are what I sometimes commit. I try to learn for those mistakes.

Learn from any source you can. It's harder to discover other players mistakes online since you have less information but when you can, of course you should.

That's something I'm trying to do as well, but My biggest vilain is the attention. I find really difficult to keep the same level of concentration at a game. Working on that..

I try to learn from other's mistakes. Not only does it help my game in the future, but it allows me a chance to take advantage of my opponent.

I work on both his and the others'. And yet they do. We need to play more to the head as the machine worked without error. Do not rush in the game to bet. It is necessary to estimate the pros and cons.
