I need to STOP showing people my cards when I win... I know I have to but I keep doing it anyways... I'm an idiot!... lol
Also I need to stop telling people what I folded as well.... Who cares what I folded anyways? right? lol
As far as tells... Well no one has told me that I have any... but I am sure I do...
I also take it personal if someone bluffs me and then shows their cards to throw it in my face... I know that is a strategy in itself but I need to not let them know it bothered me at all... because it's just business! :eek2:
Well, of course good players are interested in what you are folding or what you have.
It gives them a lot of hints, what kind of range you play in certains situations.
I usually have the opinion, when someone wants to see my hand, he has to pay for this.
Not sure if it is on the subject but after I build a stack I tend to get distracted or lose concentration.
I also have a mental block when I have a big stack near the bubble. While you hang around waiting for the bubble to burst chips are disappearing through the blinds.
On the other hand if I bully the table, many times I reduce my stack.
A rock and a hard place...
I know this problem also pretty good. After building some stack at the beginning I often freeze my game, what is really not good. I also think, it is not so easy to find the balance in these moments. Actually, you should be using your stack, but when you feel you are melting it away with the actions, that you do, it is also not so nice situation. It would be interesting to hear for me too, how other people deal with this situation, who can master this issue.
