Hello , Now a days im doing better in freerolls then when i keep some money , Im fallng repeatedly . I just played $5000 1st deposit freeroll and completed in 2000 in 3000 players .Feelin really sad . I played 3 play money games before for practice and i came 1st in all . But when real oney is on stake im failing . Can any one help me with this ? I keep sayin to myself this is just a game (real money /play money) but some how im loosing .
Give some advice
1st pay attention to table dynamics
the table dynamics are totally different in playmoney with alot of freeroll , against most of the real money table.
if people are not spending their money, they are not carefully about losing something, and u are easily get paid , meaning there are lots of weak players u could beat on the table.
but real money world is full of players who ,may be some part, try play this for living, therefore they care about income, profit, so they are tent to be good players againt u, meanning they will make less mistakes to pay u less.
poker is something , you need to beat weaker player. real money generally have higher skill level, logically should be like this.

so based on above, if want to perform better on real money table
my advice.
1st find weaker players...play with them, you beat them , you get what u want.
2nd, learn and improve your skills -- meaning decision making skills, if you could make more positive expectation decisions , finally after large number of hands, results will close to your expectation , meaning , you skills pay you off.
3rd. if u find there is some play like phil Ivey, you are unable to control, just close computer, and leave that table....
good luck.
PS: regarding some specific hands just as CC members, they are good.
