I want to learn how to play poker effectively. In tournaments I've always been conservative and had a decent cash rate. However I generally always min cash or so because I'm never one of the chip leaders usually. HELP!

you need to learn how to play position. when to steal, when to 3 bet, how to take down pots without seeing a flop. those are just a few things that could improve a players odds. and being stubborn is not how to win at poker. example: youre UTG and dealt AJ suited my play is fold, 90%+ will raise from UTG with that trash and get super stubborn. folks its just AJ and you got 5-6 players behind you. why waste time on that hand thats most likely gonna cost you chips?

there are plenty of methods to learn poker if u r interested in theory books , I would recommend David Sklansky for u , especially the theory of poker if u r interested in cash books , I would recommend Dan Harrington , u can check Harrington on cash games but when we talk about tourneys , there are plenty of books and strategies and most of them are useless and repeating the same thing all over the book but I would recommend Lee Nelson for u , he is my best author about tourneys u can check let's play poker for SNG one table and u can check Kill Phill and Kill Everyone for MTT strategy and if u r interested in some videos I would recommend Gripsed youtube channel , it's great and helped me a lot

Search high stakes poker, there are 7 seasons on the internet, maybe a full list of 7 seasons on youtube, so you can enjoy the real poker, you can learn lots of things from the videos.
Some best players, see durrrr dwan's play style, you can learn some from him, he pretends to have bad hands when he has good hands, and bluff lots of money when he has air, he is a poker talent, search Tom dwan vs ivey, that's awesome.

A site that I learned a lot from when I started playing a few years ago was PokerStrategy.com. Has a lot of pros and up and comers who give you some nice advice and when you rank up there you open up to more advance strategy. It is definitely worth checking out.

Lol no, stay away from outdated garbage books like these. I would say most books are a total waste of time, in the era of so many sites providing video training i see very little use in books. Personalaly when i was starting to learn about poker i've read some books that were considered "classic" and after becoming good myself it became so clear that they were an abysmal waste of time.

Most of the times this is usually when players lack Post bubble skills. Grab a book which focuses on the post bubble part and what kind of play to use during different parts of the tournament ( Start/Prebubble/ Bubble/ FT) . You can also just watch videos of people from famous poker sites showing their tournament play.

If I recall correctly, learning to play Poker is very easy. Whats very difficult is learning other peoples reactions. That's something that can take years to master if not decades.
Amateurs reactions are different from Professionals.

A common misconception of poker based on cheesy movies that has nothing to do with the reality

Check out the Moorman Book of poker, relatively a new book I just read a few days back. It has some good hand examples, and is good for people who are intermediate at the game.

I've always wanted to learn how to play to be honest. I'm too lazy though & not sure if I'd be any good, in an ideal world I'd love to be able to play & be Dan Bilzerian ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) It just looks too damn complicated though, so many winning hands, you have to be able to process almost instantly what other peoples hands could be, % chances of losing/winning. I would love to be able to play but can't be bothered & haven't really got the time to learn. I wouldn't want to be a noob & get my ass kicked any way.

IMO, the best way to learn how to play pokee effectively is just practice, practice and practice. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) That's what I did in my first time learning to play poker in facebook application, without reading any books.. But ofc you need to know the basic rules of poker. The more you practice the more you learn..

I would rather just suggest practising on Pokerstars with play money chips. The users on FB are more like newbies who keep shoving. PS still has a better standard of players for play chips, and also has tournaments running througout the day.

As a former player to a decent level i'll give you the only 2 things you need. 1.) Watch videos of other players playing, some are free on youtube but you should sign up to cardrunners or similar training school. 2.) Play lots of volume and use the skills you learnt in the videos. Thats all you need for starters, other than that become friends with someone who is better than you and learn from them.

PS still has a better standard of players for play chips, and also has tournaments running througout the day. "Practicing with play money chips" is the horrible advice that will most likely backfire. The only use of play money tables is get comfortable with the interface and the general rules. Other than that, its a waste of time and an actual way to become worse at poker.
