Here are some things I've joined in this community and by myself ...

“You don't have to win every time, just the last one”.


Play more with people's styles than cards.
Hand selection type + play mode = game style
Play as if watching with all the cards on display, train the reading before the other show the cards.



Good food and great night's sleep, with a well-rested mind; comfortable and well air conditioned. In poker it is tranquility without haste or anxious worry, more patience / longsuffering, meekness, gentleness, self-control, faithfulness, joy, good spirits, persistence, trust, respect, humility, giving my best within what I have, without worrying, nor desire, but be in the flow concentrated / happy with high skill and challenge / adrenaline, concentration, focus, willpower, faith, moment / presence and self-analysis, observation, commitment, initiative, creativity, sensitivity, intuition, clarity, direction, interaction, BR management ability, stack, pot x talent, variance, emotional stability, compensations, planning, goal, subgoals, time organization, commitment, dynamic, adaptability, flexibility, balancing, transition, patience, calm, hope, love, daring, joy, physical exercise, quality of life, certain of options, autoanalysis and reviews, courage, trust/confidence, detachment, balance, perseverance, resilience, overcoming.


Lose as little as possible and earn as much as possible when you're lucky and the opportunity legally.


Don’t let anyone set or impose your game, "don’t get into their game, they have to get into your game". Focus on your game right now and not on the outcome.
Have purpose: to gain value (little, medium or a lot), protect the chips, protect the hand, semi-bluff, bluff, gain information, protect information, give information to catch it in another with the same trigger triggered, balance well the plays, you cannot force or deliver the game, it has to make a lot of sense (story told = story understood), the type of player and the board have to help, because it has to be natural; The gain will come where it has to come.

[/FONT]How many outs do I have? Do I have blockers (numbers, letters, or flush / suits)? Do I add / extract value? I want him to pay or run away with what hands? What does he think I have? What does he think I think he has? What will he think of what I'm trying to do? Do I protect my hand? Value or bluff? Can I bluff my opponent in this situation? It is necessary? Where's the dead money? Is the range of hands greater for a hand larger than mine or smaller? What more do you want or can you have? What is ICM? What are you most afraid of? What else do you usually do? Is it reliable? How good is my opponent? Am I gaining information? If I bet and get raised do I pay? What are his chances of raising me? What image does he have of me and what strategy is he using against it? Will the size of the pot make a lot of difference? How does my opponent perceive me / my range / size? What are you communicating? React according to these steps and questions. It is more about the logic of action of the adversary than the mathematics itself.


No pain no gain and no game. If you don’t get it, be calm, good for him, win the next, "haste is the enemy of perfection”, which is different from being fast. Less is more. Don't bite the bone, if you have the fillet. Do not take anything personally.


"Life is too long to play bad cards”. Frank Di Elsi.
“Try to decide how good your hand is at a given moment. Nothing else matters. Nothing”. Doyle Brunson.
"If you don't have good cards you have to trust in something”.


Not make the same mistakes as yesterday...

...

+ What is the profile of the opponent? Do I have a position? Am I the aggressor of the hand? Against how many players? What is the effective stack in this hand?


...


1- Play in position (you increase up to 5x the profit with bluffs; the importance of the position is much greater in the deep stacks games);

2. Be the aggressor;
3- Play against weaker opponents than you in the game (ie, just play against players worse than you, that's the big secret);
4- The fairness of your hand (the strength of your hand over your opponent's range, and is always related to how much you need to invest to win your opponent's pot and stack).

Alcohol, while fun, can make poker not so fun, especially when you're having a slow night

To be honest the greatest teacher is the horrendous mistakes I made and money I lost due to them even the best pros make errors but everybody should learn by them as soon as possible
