What Are the Biggest Mistakes For Poker Players?

[AlexPedsPaps]

Disregarding the importance of maths to actually make rational decisions. hands can’t always be right just because you feel that it’s the right choice; you have to try and verify it with at least a solid estimate.

I absolutely agree that losing focus in a major flaw in my poker playing, along with impatience. Sometimes I'll get lost in the music or being playing a game on another tab and then accidentally make a horrible call when the poker screen pops up in front of my game.

ONE BIG MISTAKE IS SAYING NH WHEN SOMEBODY LOSES AJ AGAINST AK IN A CC FREEROLL AND THE HIGHEST CARD ON THE BOARD IS A T.This is NOT a nice hand, and the loser might remember that in the next freeroll, may play you more often to show you really nice hands

Playing too many hands,too much bluff. and invalid bet size

Being a sore loser,,,take it like a man.

 

[DougPkrMonsta]

Lots of good answers here.

I would add: relax and have a good time no matter the results - it's supposed to be fun.

If you have to sweat every hand then you are playing too high!

Good luck to you!

bluffing many hands, playing tired, being influenced by the tilt

Biggest mistake is being impatient. You just can't force this game to go in the direction you want it to. Most big pots are taken down by big hands - pure and simple. You can, and should bluff at times, but in the end you're going to need to get some good cards. If they're not coming, the worst thing you can do is get impatient, cuz that's when you start LOSING the big pots.

Yes, a mind in peace, patience and study is the key to winning at Poker.

To me watching TV during the game on the contrary helps. I already noticed the difference. When I watch TV, I play less hands. This means less errors and stack losses.

Okay, you can play less hands, but most of the time you will not know who you're playing against. Even with the help of some HUD.

Without doubt, math is the heart of the game. To think that someone has a hand by feeling is a basic mistake.

Exactly, distraction is one of the critical causes for losses in poker.

No problem in loosing here, lots of experience hahaha, but somebody sitting there happy to climb a place up not playing at all should stop ALL activities then

yes, I agree that playing at several tables is frustrating. you need to dive completely into the game, not to be distracted, to study the players. also the desire to have everything and at once a bad idea.

going all in on ace-anything

TILT!!!! Biggest mistake you can make. Whatever gets you there let it go, trash talk, bad luck, slow play, players shooting. Whatever it is block it out, each hand is a new game focus on that

 

[Ekaterina Danilenko]

The biggest mistake is to hope for a good hand

 

[Enthusiast]

In my opinion, the biggest mistake is that you do not need to sit at the table when you are not focused on the game and distract you from many other factors.

 

[Klito]

The best way to play is by playing tight agressive At tournaments someway luck plays a major role in order to run deep

 

[Martin Carreira]

There are different factors or bad actions in a player. Playing slow one hand and giving chances to concretize something to the opponent is one of them. We should not trust that we will win yes or yes. Lying at inappropriate times and playing bad hands are other common mistakes

 

[raymondzav]

Playing away from the game having your attention elsewhere you need to focus and be very attentive to was going on.

 

[DiegoRamos]

yes, I agree that playing at several tables is frustrating. you need to dive completely into the game, not to be distracted, to study the players. also the desire to have everything and at once a bad idea.

To play at multiple tables and increase your profit, you first have to increase one table at a time. Example:
2 tables for 20 sessions;
4 tables for 20 sessions;
and gradually increase.
Logic that you need to repair if you are playing poker or just clicking. It is the main at Multi tables.

going all in on ace-anything

Never

Playing to loose and to tight I catch myself once a couple times like today's freeroll I made a lot of mistakes on calling once in chip lead and noticed a lot of players going all in with any pocket pairs and A/? So once corrected I managed to take today's freeroll. Yay me

 

[maykmar]

My biggest mistake when playing poker, playing is to be decentralized, opening many hands I think I can win and are not good enough, and opening hands with big bets

There are so many mistakes a player can make, that i'm not gonna list them in this post.
