Why 90% of online poker players are lossers.
For many online poker players finding the winning formula
is like searching for the Holy Grail. Everyone is promising it
and in fairness most are providing it.
But here's the thing ... A hell of a lot of players just ain't listening
If you've have laid awake one night after a failed evening trying to beat flophat2 and ibluff56 wondering where your money went. You've probably run out the next day to buy a poker book like "Super secret formula to Poker Millions" or downloaded "Instant ways to win online". But if you've read enough of them you realize they're all basically the same.
Some are well written and some are hard work but the bottom line is they all tell you to play tight aggressive. And they're all right.
If your lucky and you only need to read one book and I mean read it not skim read thinking your taking it in - then great. But most people are not that bright, it needs spelling out time and time again - same message just in slightly different ways.
Because when the penny drops they're all telling you the same thing you're a hell of alot nearer understanding poker. It isn't about a set move for this or that - It's about understanding what people are doing and why. And figuring out what your best play is with that information.
So the best advice is read up, read up as much as you can, wherever you can. The more you read, the more you think - that's what makes a winning player - Understanding the game so well that you can out play everyone else.
