First Post
My first blog post at DC. I have been playing poker on and off forbout 6 years now. I didn't really get into it much until recently. I found a $1/$2 no limit game close enough to me. I like the game, its technically not no limit, it is 100max, but it plays like no limit since most people buy in with $100. I like it better than the limit game because at least you have a chance to protect your hand in the $100 max. I went there last night and played for a few hours. I bought in for the minimum because that is all I had. So I'm starting with $40. I ended up with $130 after a few hours. I feel I could have won more and I remember the exact hands and how I could have played them differently. I feel that is progress on my part. I am not able to completely read a player yet but I was able to identify playing styles with most players at my table and use that info to my advantage. I am going back tomorrow with a little more confidence than I had yesterday. Any tips or advice to a player who is reletively new to live play is more than welcome. Thanks
