My biggest impediment is, I play not to loose. I should be playing to win but it is hard for me get my head around that.

I would say not folding enough hands because i call with the lower cards and know i shouldn't. I like lower cards when i know every1 has high cards. Good luck.

Enough TIME to play when you are working full time and have a family.
One of the worst impediments to the evolution of multiplayer games is the emotional issue.

Many cannot understand the game or are simply going through something bad outside of Poker and this becomes stressful, allowing their reasoning to drastically decrease, automatically resulting in emotional destabilization leading to loss of money.

But this is just one example.

Now do you know what your impediment is?

My worst difficulty is myself and more specifically my weaknesses. Sooner or later everybody learns to play poker .The most difficult part is to use the knowledge during the game when feelings and chips might take over the mind

My biggest difficulties in poker are anxiety and lack of patience. These two issues hinder me a lot, especially when the tournament is already very advanced.

the hardest part for me in poker is dealing with the frustrations that this game causes us, it is relentless, any mistake costs us dearly, and you feel when you could have played differently and won a lot more. poker is a losing game and you have to be very good psychologically to support this reality.

Didn't you take advantage of the variance?

I always play with an average of 100 buy ins, maybe it's an option you...


I have already tried playing $ 1 tournaments with $ 100 in the bank but I find the prices unattractive at this level. I've heard this advice many times, it seems like a sure way to manage your bankroll well and grow. I had seen good results, I will maybe get back to it. It seems to be a longer but effective process

My biggest problem is the dog. Just as I get on a roll in some tournaments is the time that the dog goes to the door whining to go out. By the time I get back my streak of good luck is over or my stack is eaten up with the blinds. Sooooooooo if she wants to go out and I have a smaller stack I just go all in before I go out. Most times that's the end for me. GGRRRRRRRRRRR

Mine is not slowing down to think the hand through at times. Allows me to lose a lot of chips at times.

My biggest difficulty is banking and sometimes losing patience, when I lose a strong hand, and I get hit bad bets, I think those are the bad management of the bank, and not having enough patience, to stay calm.


patience makes man wise ...
