Hi!
I'm new here. My background: played poker some time with friends in real life without a clue. Then got inspired by this short video: http://www.bloomberg.com/video/94782773-the-psychology-of-risk-trading-and-poker.html.
As I have a little background in forex/trading. At least I didn't lose more than I made.
So I thought I want to find out about odds and such because it might make a lot more sense to set some standards. Started out with your Beginner Poker/Poker Strategy Articles but already got confused in the very beginning by the incomprehensible and countless jargon and complex strategies mentioned from the very beginning. Not a native English speaker. I mean come on guys! When you want to start out in forex you go straight to http://www.babypips.com/school/ and you can proceed step by step from point zero with the appropriate jargon come on the side.
But here? First you get the jargon with incomprehensible complex setups for a noob, then you can learn about the rules of the game at all, and then some odds/strategy. Brilliant setup I can say.
Anyways I am here because CardsChat e-mail support told me the forum is the place to start, not by reading of your articles. So I am here and waiting for what do you recommend me to do next.
Support said this is the best place on the net(?) to learn about poker in a comprehensible way (shameless self-promo, OK), but whatever, I can learn from a book as well, so all in all what is the best place in your opinion to start as a newbie? Which site, book, or whatever learning material? Free or paid.
