In order to build some Poker experience I started off playing with dummy money but found the tables not realistic enough - not the same as a real game.
So I've played a couple of tournaments and although not doing as well as I want, I have improved a little.
What I am wondering is should tournaments be played slow and easy with the objective of staying in longer (witness the players who sit out) or is it better to play and therefore learn?
I just got knocked out of a tournament where I was doing ok with approx 2200 chips. A new player joined the table with 15000 and goes all in pre-flop. I have 2 Aces so I go all in along with another player.
I lose on the last card that gives the 3rd player a straight, otherwise I win.
Was I naive going all in - or just unlucky
