I hate learning new poker stuff.

Read a lot of books but just have some cheap home games. The sad thing is that good players will tell you exactly what they are doing it and why...

Right now I'm just grinding away at FRs and micro MTTs. I know most people takes shots and don't worry about BRM until they get to a certain spot, but I'm following BRM from the very bottom. I created all new accounts a month ago and am slowly trying to build up my BRs on 4 sites to where I can at least start playing in the cheapest SNGs or FLHE tables. I'm even following BRM on LLBs!!

I think I'm already a solid player, but it's finding all of the little holes in my game so I can be a consistently winning player. It's taking the concepts I'm reading about and learning to apply them to my game is where I'm hitting the learning curve. And reading all the poker books I've learned that not all of the advice works for me. So it's trying to figure out if something that's new to me is just something I need to understand and apply better, or if it's something that just doesn't work with my style.

Honestly, the biggest hole in my game is pot odds. I understand the basic concept, but I just haven't motivated myself to mentally try and figure them out while actually playing.

I just feel that as poker players, we can get set in our own style of playing, and that sometimes it's hard to break out of that rut to improve our game. At least that's how I feel.

I haven't seen the video, but I have read the book. I don't play live much. I'm trying to see if I can scratch something out online, and then use that for some live buy-ins.

It sucks, since I already have my established way of playing, I have to fight my instincts and then it just creates this awkward losing middle ground that tilts me so bad. I know in the long run it will pay off, but I hate it!! I guess I need to stop multi-tabling too while I'm changing things up and trying new things so I can really focus. Bleh, I don't want to, but I will, cause I like winning.

I know this sounds silly, but the Pokerstars.net Big Game was designed to not only be a show to watch the pros, but also to teach. Maybe you should find those on Youtube.

I've never been a home games player. I grew up in vegas, so not really any point to them there. I've only played one home game, and I didn't exactly get invited back... The guy that organized it was used to winning and I messed that up for him.

I find it interesting when people talk too much about the way they play. I try not to in general, but I'm not perfect about it. I try to stay quiet about poker most of the time, but I'll also carry on a conversation about other stuff and I have a good poker face, so I throw my opponents off in live games.

I'm sure I should, but I just don't like watching videos, I like to learn by reading. I lose interest too quickly when I'm watching a video, but when I'm reading I feel like I can learn at my own pace.
