lol, that would be me then........................
fraid not, this girl's for real.
fraid so, as I do. After FT got shut-down, most of my money left was in Ultimate bet, so I continue to play there, and wait for my withdrawal.
Anyway, Em, I hate to say it, as you're a lovely girl and all that, but you are quite a bad player. Im no pro, Im quite average compared to some people here, but Id like to offer you some serious advice. Take it or leave it, but I hope you'll read it, and maybe take it on board.
1) Your hand selection is quite poor preflop, you play hands like T5, K3, Q2 etc, even after a raise. Junk those hands.
2) Postflop you continue with your hands if you have even the tiniest part of the flop, even after raising from others. If people are being aggressive postflop, they normally have a hand. Not many people bluff at this level
3) You shortstack a lot, and for the minimum, 40c. You might notice I call you a lot, as I dont mind if I lose to you, as 40c wont hit me hard(thats a fault of mine, lol)
4) You play way too many hands, and way too many hands out of position. I have tracked you for 650 hands, and you voluntarily enter the pot at 68% at both 6max and 9 max, thats way too much.
I hope this can help you in some way.:ridinghor
For information, we play 9max and 6max 2nl, so if anyone else has anything to add, please do.

So confused right now. How do you know this girl and what hands she plays? Sorry for the troll accusation but typing in caps, having a totally vague question (which is more of a statement than a question)... and also putting a little x after everything is also a bit..
However, welcome to the forum your on the right path to getting better

Ignore most of the people in this thread.
According to KD, you play too many hands. Learn first that you can fold at any time. Start slow and fold more than half the time. Successful players will fold around 80-85 percent of the time preflop.
Learn the lingo. Search this forum. We can make you a decent player. We have proof. But like anything in life, you will get out of it what you put in. Well, not quite anything in life, if you only put money into poker, without learning anything about it, you will only get grief out of it.

I think it's okay to use CAPS at the start of sentences tho (if you want to)
have fun on the tables & listen to KDog (< good player!) as I'm sure they could help you out alot (I mean they did steer you here in the first place right?).

I have poker software called HoldemManager which keeps records of other people at your table, as well as your own. You can get it on a free trial at http://www.holdemmanager.com
I met her at a table at UB/Abs and got chatting, then I told her to come here, hands tracked by HEM, as beforeSo confused right now. How do you know this girl and what hands she plays?

I think you're OK too
but I would always be looking for improvement just to keep it fun . played home games my entire life and most of it was like she plays , I remember when I first started seeing people fold a lot of hands , I wondered what their problem was , folding was just not a option unless you had no chance at all to win . yes it was for money but it was for the fun , the camaraderie , I still call to much in limit games but that was before no limit so the money was hardly ever a part of the decision to fold lol .
