Top 3 Bad Decisions beginners make .

[billyjustin]

shoot, doesn't sound like just a beginners mistakes. Sounds like lot of veterans too.

playing too many hands is deff number 1 and chasing draws would be two.....also bankroll management if were talking about online poker...way too many beginers play out of there BR range and they end up going broke...they want to win alot quickly thats just not how it works....

the worst thing i did when i first started was deposit. lol. shoulda avoided it for a couple years before playing.

Freeroll play is definetly different , by now i know the players enough to like playing in pokerowned freerolls and doing pretty good for the most part. But other freerolls I tend to never do well in because i don't know most the players. I prefer $22 buyin for an actual game where i can play alot of hands preflop and actually bluff my opponents. but man when i qualified for the $109 100k gtd that was a fun real game.

Overbluffing.

When you know your beat and they aren't letting down their guard... Don't feed them.

Like billyjustin said alot of veterans make this mistake to... like me. But yes it is a bigger problem for amateurs or " noobs "

dont play against people who dont care about the money. plain and simple you will go broke everytime if you do

Good list .... one and three are kind of the same thing ... so ya as True said move BM into the top 3.

Number one is definitely the biggest problem, playing way too many hands pre-flop and watching your stack go down too quickly.
