Since I'm new here, I thought of something to give to the community.

I'm a winning mid-high stakes reg, (up over $120k in lifetime earnings).

Over the past years I've developed a good sense of the game, and I'd say I'm now at the point where I can teach others a thing or two.

So, if you're interested in bringing your poker game to the next level, send me hands that you've played where you questioned your decisions, or if you have any questions feel free to ask them, either via private messages, or via a reply on this thread!

Edit : Free of charge!


great stuff, its good to see people helping others out for free
I'm sure there will be many requests, waiting for some posts to read, hope not all of them will go in pm/dm
so poker newbs like myself can read and learn Smiley

Glad to know that this stuff is totally free and its quite rare for some people to have the time to share up some tips and knowledge about poker.
For those players out there - It isnt bad to try on whats OP's trying to teach.  Grin

Wow, it's really nice that you want to help people for free with their poker skills. I get it that you might be really into this stuff and thus helping out people, but I wonder if there is a bigger game for you here. Sure, it's sweet that people are willing to help for free, but humans are rational beings, so in any situation they are usually looking for some gain (even if it's not direct and purely economic). What's your game here? Why are you helping people for free? Is it because then you can start providing services for money or something else? Don't get me wrong, it's just that 'too good to be true' offers are making me suspicious. It's often safer if you know what kind of profit the offerer is going for.

There's no catch, I'm doing hand reviews, simply because I like doing them, but it's also to build up a CV that I can use in the future to possibly ''benifit from economic gain'' hope that answers your question. You can find tons of free information online already, the likes of, charlie carell, lex veldhuis, gripsed poker. I'm just offering hand reviews to beginning - advanced players who feel uncertain about their plays in alot of spots.

The thing what I really don't understand is this : Why are you even asking this? All free services can eventually possibly benifit the maker. It seems to me that you're trying discredit my integrity for some reason, which I really can't respect.

I'm offering a good, free service. To the people who want to make use of this opportunity, go for it. If you don't want to make use of this, just keep on scrolling and don't bother replying.

If you think that you can manage the variances of so many hands here, why dont you make any examples of yourselves like the one you have on becoming the runner up? I believe there must be so many conditions where you need to make a choice whether to fold or continue right? May be people wont have time to discuss it here because there is always time limit when to bet so instead of asking them why dont you directly give something as the examples of many conditions? I think it is much better

You're joking right? ''May be people wont have time to discuss it here because there is always time limit when to bet so instead of asking them why dont you directly give something as the examples of many conditions?''

You just can't make this stuff up, lol.

I don't think you realise that hand reviews are used for studying. Studying poker is something you do off-table, so I have no idea what you're asking here.

I am very impressed by two things. Firstly, that you offer your service for free and secondly that you have managed to take your plays to the next level. I wasn't sure if there is a trick to do so and I was wondering if there is a chance to make poker plays better. I just want to ask if you have improved your pays by reading/studying about plays or you have made it only by experience? It may be a combination of the two but I want to know which one exceeds as I usually play with my feeling - experience and this strategy is not profitable for me.

Since I'm new here, I thought of something to give to the community.

I'm a winning mid-high stakes reg, (up over $120k in lifetime earnings).

Over the past years I've developed a good sense of the game, and I'd say I'm now at the point where I can teach others a thing or two.

So, if you're interested in bringing your poker game to the next level, send me hands that you've played where you questioned your decisions, or if you have any questions feel free to ask them, either via private messages, or via a reply on this thread!

Edit : Free of charge!


Online poker is in close to dead state. You cant find any crypto poker room with mid-stakes action and more than 1 open table. I've checked it all.

I suggest you to try twoplustwo for HH discussion. There you will get a lot more action on your posts.

I agree this is a huge problem with crypto poker. Probably because Pokerstarts and 888 are so dominate.

Completely free of charge mate!
As you say so. Now, I just want to ask what is the difference between the poker in casinos and online poker. Are the rules the same? Can you chat with your opponents or not? What is usually the minimum bet allowed in btc? Is it harder to play online since you can't read the body language of your opponemt or it's all the same?

I'm sorry if I had so many questions, I'm an aspiring gambler. I just bumped into your thread so I grab the opportunity to ask and get some advice coming from experienced people while it still free Grin.

I'm sorry if I had so many questions, I'm an aspiring gambler. I just bumped into your thread so I grab the opportunity to ask and get some advice coming from experienced people while it still free Grin.

First off, when you say poker, I'm assuming you are talking about the most popular version ; Texas Hold'em. There are many other forms of poker out there, the likes of Omaha, PL08, etc.

There are 2 main forms of poker you can play :
MTT's (Multi table tournaments)
Cash games

The base rules of texas hold'em are the same everywhere. You can chat with your opponents, aswell as online and live, but speaking when there is an All-in at the table is generally frowned upon. For live table etiquette I advise you to watch the following video : https://youtu.be/lkuBbXpIFhU

The amount you want to bet is completely up to you. MTT's can start as low as a $0.05 buy-in. For online cash games the lowest is generally at around $2. But the sky is the limit, you can also choose to play $100.000 cash games and MTT's, like I mentioned before, it's completely up to you.

Online poker is actually easier for beginners than live "casino" poker. Body language reads are not that prominent at the beginner stages, so don't worry about it. It is indeed impossible to get a physical read when playing online, but it's always possible to find patterns in your opponents game, so that you can exploit them.

I tried to keep the answers as beginner friendly as possible.

Hope this answered your questions.

Goodluck at the tables!

I am asking for some examples that you really getting on when you are done with the playing. At least you might have something left on your mind when you called it a hard decision or anything. You might be able to recover the situation and share everything on this thread. So there is no need for everyone to ask you the same question again and again. If this is only some words to see without any pic or screenshot then it is really nothing can be learned

as a pro player, how much of importance is the ability to read your opponent's body signals?
how would you describe the recipe to be a successful poker player, for example:
50% reading opponent, 30% luck ,20% knowing patterns etc.
do you have any tutorial videos you like to point newbies to ,so you do not explain the basics?
is it possible to make a living playing poker professionally?

as a pro player, how much of importance is the ability to read your opponent's body signals?
how would you describe the recipe to be a successful poker player, for example:
50% reading opponent, 30% luck ,20% knowing patterns etc.
do you have any tutorial videos you like to point newbies to ,so you do not explain the basics?
is it possible to make a living playing poker professionally?


First of all, good questions.

Like I've said previously (replies) above, reading body language is not a prominent skill at the beginner stages. It really all depends on what tables you are playing to answer if a read is useful or not.

A good poker player can take his losses. Most of the tournaments (MTT's) you'll play (like 80-85%) will not earn you ANY money. A good player keeps his calm at a final table, when the stakes are high, to make up for all the times you're not in the money. Discipline is also very important (not tilting, etc.).

Poker is a constantly changing game, the way poker was played 10 years ago, isn't even close to how it's played today. A good player will constantly try to raise his edge over his opponents by studying off the table.

A youtube channel named PokerListings, made some great beginner-friendly videos to let you start learning today. Check out the playlist here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tk0YZUIBe10&list=PLjox1pvr2DkY0njX0Z4jcLGRhkbfYkrq3

It's very important that you get the poker basics down, before you start playing. You don't want to be like 95% of the poker community and start out as a complete fish at the tables. Build a solid poker foundation, then start playing from there.

And, yes, you can make a living of playing poker professionally, lots of people do it, playing 2/5 cash games at my local card room has basically paid for my college education. Here's a list of the highest total tournament earnings of poker players in the world : http://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/ranking/all-time-money-list/

If you have anymore questions, feel free to ask them!
