Default Know yourself

Play your own game beginners

I know that you have heard alot of stories and theories of how to play ,and I myself have had alot of game theories on the site but now that I think about it dont listen to them you need to have your own game plan I mean take notes but don't use them all the time. Or people will catch you way of play does anyone get what I am saying. Please if anyone agrees or disagrees put them here.

2nd part hope you understand this one

What I am trying to get threw is that you read all of this articles and you watch people on tv and you say to yourself "should I play like him or her or him" and you wonder what do you do. You mix your game up don't always do what the pros or what other people say is the best theorie. Be your own player at the tables.

Are you saying that if we all take and play the way we here we should from players,guides and posts on the site we will become easier reads?
Predictable as to what move we will make next?

OK, I'm interpreting this cryptic message as, absorbe what you can from others experience, but develope your own style of play that best suites you? Everyone has personal strengths and weeknesses, and we need to find out what these are, and use them to our advantage. Or, I have no idea what he was talking about, and I'm just talkin abstract theory here, LOL.

Ok im not going to vote but Im gonna explain my idea on this thread.

I feel that players are going to play the same way over and over again and then it will end up becoming a 2nd nature for them. So if you do catch up on something, make a note of it. Next time or the time after that look for it. See if it is still going on. If it isnt delete it and go on with play. If it does keep up, well then you just made a read online. PROPS

I feel that your beginners and your "newbies" will be only be the ones that change their style of play. They will play loose @ a low table just to piss the poor people off. Then play top notch, preium hands at the big tables just to score the big money. Some times this works, personal experince , and the something you will get caught. If you play really tight and come out showing your strong on one hand that equals a strong hand.

Now many of you are like PSHH who is this kid, but i have seen it to work out very well and i mave a couple of read on some of you just from watching. Now i know some or at least most of that will not be true because i have never played with you so when you fold and i get a read, it could be totaly off.

Well im done have fun.

In the end everyone develops there own style. But, can still be grouped with other with a similar style.

There are people that will always play like a loose cannon. They crave the action. They can be good players because they are hard to read and at anytime could have a monster or trash and still win with either one.

There are the Tight aggresive players. The can be a bit predictable because you can almost always know when they have a good hand. Almost is the key word. These players will toss you a fake move to throw you off. They mix up their play. Which is even more important for them.

As far as taking notes. You should not make them into a Bible. Just because I play AK for 3.5x the BB 10 times straight UTG does not mean I might just call or bet even bigger just to throw the table off. Good players constantly adapt to the tables they are playing and the other players on the table.

In short use notes. It is a key to becoming a winning player. But, think the will work 100% of the time because. No one plays the same way 100% of the time.
