Poker tournaments why tournaments in other games

[Mauser]

The tournaments in poker are very limited, seeing the comments of people who are very up to date with what has to do with poker, the forum is not interested in poker or is what active players are giving a very subliminal message, they care about is games where there are no complications and they can win or lose whether it is against the casino or not.

I have not seen game tournaments, a tournament for me is when people face each other, and they do not fight against a computer, or against a system, I have never been in tournaments that have the impression and communication with others, I think it is the most typical way to raise the adrenaline and with money, with poker I have not seen here but only against the computer and almost all casinos have poker games.

It depends on which kind of tournaments you are looking for, the large tournaments with thousands of players are rare and mostly publicity events. But there are quite a few smaller tournaments that have quite a high chance of finishing up in the money. For me the best thing are sit and go games with 30-100 players. They offer large enough price pools to make it worth playing a few hours and you usually have the option to rebuy if you fail with your first bullet. The good thing about these micro tournaments is that they are offered in different buyin sizes and run many times a day. There are fixed times and you can plan your evening accordingly. And when playing online you can play multiple games at once.

Becoming a professional poker player is in fact very similar to becoming a professional trader, it is important to learn the skills necessary to profit from the activity but it is also very important to learn money management skills, and we know this is the case because there have been many cases of poker players that have an amazing ability to play the game but which they do not know how to manage their money effectively, and this means that their poker skill level becomes irrelevant and they also become long term losers.

Both are almost the same as professional poker players and professional traders are required to learn more from others, but the subject matters set them apart. But both must have good self-control so that they don't get out of line and still be able to play poker or trade well. And I agree that money management is also very important for every gambler because this will determine how much money they will use to gamble.

Both require knowledge and good analysis, but the fact that poker games are still luck based, no matter how skilled you are or how good in money management, there are always more visible inevitable losses for professional poker players than in professional traders. Because as long as it’s gambling that is a gamble of chance and luck, even professional poker players are still subject for losses.

A skilled poker player tends to win in the long run. There are only a few exceptions:

1) That he moves up levels and ends up playing at a level where he has no edge. Therefore, assuming he manages his bankroll well, he has to go down a level.
2) He is going through a bad psychological moment in his life, which leads to alcohol or drug consumption and that affects his gambling.
3) In the case of big tournaments played live, the variance can last for months or years without significant results. Thus there have been a few players who quit the modality or poker altogether.

But a winning NL100 SH player, settled at the level for years and who wins at 6bb/100h, and hasn't dabbled in alcohol or drugs is always going to win in the long run.

You are thinking of a professional poker player, but not all poker players are professional, so the one that wins on the long run is a guy like Phil Helmut or Daniel Negreanu or Phil Ivey. Of course, those people will always end up earning some money when they get in, hell they are offered entry fee by others, just to share the winning pot if they win, meaning they may not even have to pay for anything anymore, they either win something or win nothing but not even lose anything.

So, if I start gambling poker, I would be terrible at it, and would lose in the long run, but those famous poker players would win, there is a big big difference.

Professional poker players are more dedicated and well-focused on the game or should we say that they have an advantage when it comes to experience. Anyone could play poker but not anyone could be professional in it. It needs a further understanding of how to deal with the risks of this game and having a sense of responsibility at the same time. People prefer poker over other gambling games because its risk is more manageable than others.  

When they want to learn to be a professional poker player, they must spend more time learning various poker lessons and how to control themselves. Becoming a professional poker player means that they can also earn money from the game while continuing to learn. It is not easy because they should prepare many things before becoming a professional poker player, especially the time that must be spent to become a professional. But all gambling games have risks and the size of these risks varies depending on several things.

I think that they do get over the psicological aspects very early or else they simply have to abandon. Most professionals take the game level to a point that is pure mathematics. In the same interview, she explained that during the game she just thinks of the money on the table as "firing power" or "fuel left" to be burned and decissions are purely intelectual.

Yes, that is the most correct and I think that this is the only way to see poker as one of the games that can be compared to chess, because it has a lot to do with its calculation, seeing poker in this way I think it is much deeper where emotions are left aside and it gives you that tranquility and peace of mind when playing, something very similar to when playing chess, the player does not think if he will win or lose, he only calculates each move and studies at least what he can do it in 3, 4, 5 or if I could see more moves, it's much better, I think that level of understanding refers, but to get there I think you need a lot of knowledge and experience.

A skilled poker player tends to win in the long run. There are only a few exceptions:

What you say is very interesting and it makes a lot of sense when we play poker in a tournament that is online, that is like an all against all, we do not know who we are playing against, if they are professional or not, but there is something that must be taken into account that we can be novices and we can face a poker professional who lives from poker, then this is something that is both fair and undeserved, just because we are all in ideal conditions, and it is not deserved when it is up to a player to face a professional because obviously the professional would win, although in cards and poker much depends on luck.

I am fascinated by the game of poker, however when I play I can never reach the finalists, and I have read many tutorials, I have seen different manuals, and it is incredible, but I have a friend who is very good at playing poker and He is also very good at playing pool, in crypto tournaments when he plays he always comes out on top, the truth is I don't know nor can I figure out what he thinks and how he thinks when he plays, sometimes I think that what he has is a gift, at Just like in pool when he plays he is very good, I have asked him and he tells me that he plays without fear of losing, and he plays a lot with the psychology of others, that is the only thing he tells me.

I am also a person who admires poker players but I personally am not very good at it. I have even attended offline poker matches in several areas but that was also an event before the pandemic. What I watch turns out to be more difficult than what we watch in front of a screen. The real atmosphere clearly brings us to the moment when the players have the kind of strategy that is hard to guess.

Therefore, when I get to know online gambling, especially the payment using cryptocurrency, poker is one of the games that I will often visit.

Yes, this is a very good way, but don't worry, there are many ways to learn to play with more precision, but it's good that you play and play because experience is also what makes a person grow, for me poker is It is a very popular game and it is excellent to bet on, poker tournaments have more chances of winning, you just have to play very discreetly so that other players do not take the routines or patterns with which you play, that is a very peculiar way of knowing how a person plays and how to play it, this is something that can be taken into account for every player.

Each person has his style of play and that is what everyone is looking for, to know how they do it to establish their strategy.

I think that they do get over the psicological aspects very early or else they simply have to abandon. Most professionals take the game level to a point that is pure mathematics. In the same interview, she explained that during the game she just thinks of the money on the table as "firing power" or "fuel left" to be burned and decissions are purely intelectual.

Well, that's fine in theory, but we're all human and even the most seasoned professionals sometimes let emotions get in the way of their gambling decisions.

First I want to repeat a distinction that I often mention in these threads but that most people don't seem to understand: between professional and regular players.

Both types of players are quite similar in that they are long term winners, take poker as a job and take care to make the most rational decisions possible (EV+). The difference between these two types of players is that the professionals are dedicated exclusively to poker and the regulars have a main job but with poker they earn extra income. That and the level of income. The average professional makes much more money than the average regulars, who can be found in micro-limits (although these regular are often people who are learning).

A regular or professional poker player when he bets, if he does it well, is not thinking about the value of the money the chips have, he is calculating an EV+ move in the most emotionally neutral way possible. A recreational player or fish, on the other hand, is usually an occasional player who is thinking about the cash value of the chips, going up if he wins or going into tilt if he loses. In both cases he usually ends up losing soon because even though he starts with a winning streak, due to the feeling of confidence and thinking that he is on a "winning streak" he makes even worse decisions than he would normally make.

You are right, the psychological aspect I think has everything for the best decision making, I know that many people when they are on a good run only think that they will win and they will win, the concept they have about failure is very little, and really that is not wrong, they have an excellent positivism, but before winning every player must imagine a scenario where he fails because it is better to have his feet firmly on the ground.

However, the most famous poker players are people who usually have a lot of money to withstand any loss, perhaps that is one of the things why professionals recover quickly.

It is very common for a professional poker player to say phrases or habsurd things for anyone like "never mind, I lost playing well..." There are cooler (e.g.) that seem meaningless...for most but have EV+.  The long term defines the good poker player and is the reason for such phrases, because the professional or that player who knows what he does does not play with having luck in his favor plays with EV +.

Professional players base their strategies on averaging winning. Sometimes it may be as little as an advantage of 1 in 50 or 1 in 20 if playing with less experienced players, but that is it. This means that they need to play as many games as possible and make sure that the strategy is correct in each and everyone of them. Not an easy task and one that requires plenty of preparation.

[Poker Player]

You are thinking of a professional poker player, but not all poker players are professional, so the one that wins on the long run is a guy like Phil Helmut or Daniel Negreanu or Phil Ivey.

No, I'm not just thinking of professionals, and it's something I've explained repeatedly. Twice in this thread. I am not a professional player, I am a regular player, known also as "reg" and I have earned money playing poker for years, which complements the money I earn with my main job and other sources of income, like the signature campaigns here.

So you don't have to be a pro to make money in poker.

So, if I start gambling poker, I would be terrible at it, and would lose in the long run, but those famous poker players would win, there is a big big difference.

LOL.

Yes, you better not play poker.

[rodskee]

Most tournaments are promoted by poker games won't know why but that is how it has been for some time now, especially on this forum, I have seen casinos bringing poker tournaments that are hosted by members of this forum and management by a manager who has recognized this forum.

Have you just created this thread for your own benefits as to post your daily counts? because in your OP the topic stands as question but this post of yours seems to be you understand what you are asking for?
this sounds for me that there is no need for the thread to run as you already knew what is that?

I agree with luckmcfly as it is true that poker players are mostly big money holders who necer quit even though they lose so much in the process of playing but then most of them always run bankrupt due to excessive playing and always trying to recover from previous losses.

poker is a game to gamble , so  like every games? there are different type of players in each games.

You've never been on a poker tournament that involves real people I guess mate. I don't think you're aware on the bitcointalk poker tournaments that was held by forum members here and if really not, you may check this recent one: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5382245.0, this one isn't against a bot.

It has been quite a time that we have seen some poker tournaments on the forum and few months I have personally played the game on any site.But it was really good to participate along with the forum members like on Betnomi and SwC poker with some good rewards as well and there was lot of excitement among members in the thread about it.But when you play along the real players the situation is entirely different and you have to skillfully handle each hand to see if you can make a good pair out of it and your balance on the table.

[Mauser]

In the case of very high buy-in tournaments or even high stakes games, it is relatively common for professional players to play with the financial support of others (who provide part of the necessary funds in exchange for a share of the profits).

Poker as a career is not only about playing well, but also about having great emotional control and knowing how to manage your finances. Another very common thing is the players who become established and start earning serious money, many start spending as if there were no tomorrow, exponentially increasing their consumption and lifestyle, instead of taking advantage to ensure an economic cushion and a huge bankroll. Then come the rough patches and they have to go looking for financial support and stuff.

It is pretty common in the poker world to stake each other for big tournaments. All the top poker players know each other and once you reach your first big payouts it becomes much better to spread your risk than to take it all on your own. In the big tournaments with hundreds of players the chance of winning is small, even for the professional poker player. He might make it into the money, but for reaching the first place you need to be lucky. And it also affects your strategy if you only play to reach the money, or if you want to win the tournament. Sharing some of their profits with other players helps to diversify risks and can lead to payouts even if you got knocked out of the tournament. Daniel Negreanu is doing that even for his fans, you can buy different structured packages before the WSOP each year and make a profit whenever he makes money in a tournament. It kind of similar when people at the final table make a deal among each other to split the money based on their poker rating and then only play for who gets the bracelet. Poker player are business man and are looking for ways to get the most money out of a situation. In tournaments once the rebuy phase is over things can go wrong very fast, imagine getting AA and the chip leader puts you all in preflop only to see his 99 hand hitting a 9 on the turn and you are out of the tournament.

I think it just doesn't get that much attention, that's the problem. Poker is not the type of game that ever saw that much attention from the crypto world and that's the issue, there has been a lot of poker websites in the crypto world as well, and they never grew that big, look at all the old ones and you will see how they work hard to get people and always end up failing.

You would probably need a lot of marketing, and I mean like millions of dollars to get a proper amount of people interested, and even in there you wouldn't know what to do afterwards when the money is over, and people are not staying. Hence, it's not a good idea to do it.

[Piesel]

Poker series isa big way to spend money and mostly those who take part in tournaments are professional poker players who have loads of money to play around with, with what I have seen on this forum from a good number of poker tournaments hosted here, players are expected to stake an amount to share in the pool.

I don't know if the such a system of group games tournaments is available with other games but poker seems to be the most popular game in tournaments.

[worle1bm]

I agree with luckmcfly as it is true that poker players are mostly big money holders who necer quit even though they lose so much in the process of playing but then most of them always run bankrupt due to excessive playing and always trying to recover from previous losses.

I think one of the reasons why most of this gamblers do end up being bankrupt is because of so much addiction which would be eaten them to the core. Poker game is much of addiction and if we are not that careful then we can end up been a addictive which can as well make us go bankrupt one day. Excess bettings have there own detriment.

Gambling as a whole is addiction and we must have our stop limits and budget allocated towards it which must not be crossed in any sense as it could hurt you financially as well as in other ways also.Going bankrupt is very normal one and your life is also distributed so this should be avoided at any cost and not becoming too emotionally attached to the game.

If so, the key so that we don't go bankrupt and can enjoy gambling games is to learn to control ourselves in any gambling game because that can help us to avoid the addiction that has happened to many people. We don't need to chase defeat or victory because our goal in playing any gambling is to enjoy the atmosphere. But indeed, poker games can make us forget to control ourselves but that will also depend on each player. If they could handle it, they could stop before they lost a lot of money.

It is that things are very difficult to determine, if a player does not get along with his finances he can lose everything and that is something that should not be allowed, just as there are poker players who have a lot of money there are others who do not live According to what they win, it's incredible, but in the world there are people who are like that, however, in my very particular case, I would always like to be involved in poker tournaments to live those experiences more and to be able to come out as a winner one day, I have a friend who plays poker very well, and usually in every tournament he is if he is not 1st, he is among the first, sometimes worse people like him I think they even have a gift.

Gambling as a whole is addiction and we must have our stop limits and budget allocated towards it which must not be crossed in any sense as it could hurt you financially as well as in other ways also.Going bankrupt is very normal one and your life is also distributed so this should be avoided at any cost and not becoming too emotionally attached to the game.

What you say is very true, I really have never gone bankrupt with games of chance, or making sports bets, but I know some cases of well-known colleagues who have had to live that bitter time, and it is difficult, because many they fall into depression and their families have to pay for places where they do sleep cures, according to doctors they say that sometimes addiction to casinos causes that to be worse than drug addiction, because a drug addict is only looking for money to get high, but that the addict to the games tempts against his own life when he does not get money, according to that doctor he assures that the best thing is sleep cures for the person so that he avoids doing something very ugly and disgrace his whole family, the bankruptcy caused by the I consider gambling to be something very delicate.

If so, the key so that we don't go bankrupt and can enjoy gambling games is to learn to control ourselves in any gambling game because that can help us to avoid the addiction that has happened to many people. We don't need to chase defeat or victory because our goal in playing any gambling is to enjoy the atmosphere. But indeed, poker games can make us forget to control ourselves but that will also depend on each player. If they could handle it, they could stop before they lost a lot of money.

I have seen that the majority of the population in terms of Bitcointalk players, not all of them are so wealthy, but that we still like casinos a lot, and gambling, it is because we like to have a lot of fun, but at least I do not have as much money to allocate it to risk in a casino, and because of that I have developed many techniques to take advantage of my situation and get the most out of casino games, and that does not ensure that I have big profits, because you lose more than you win, but if we see gmabling only with another mentality, as well as fun, we will spend little and enjoy more, something that very few who have a lot of money and spend a lot of money and lose it to feel happiness.

We as gamblers are always bankrupt but the site/owner? never been lol not unless he knows nothing or not good in running their businesses .
I for once experience that  bankrupt when i visit a newly opened casino and all my funds even my ATM got busted  and that is the meaning that never I bring my ATM again in my gambling  activities because of that day.

because it is a choice that we have to make, such as choosing gambling for entertainment or to earn money for daily needs etc. it's only natural that if a gambler goes bankrupt in gambling it drains more money that must be lost in gambling and we will lose and the bookies will always win.
we can't blame anyone because we are in gambling at the poker table it is our choice to play gambling. whatever it is the purpose of gambling is one way to spend money slowly but sometimes to make rich when lucky to get a jackpot with a large amount.
and again, the main problem is not only poker, which can actually drain money in gambling, but other games may also be the same

Whether if we are playing for fun or money but if we don't have a control, it is always possible for us get addicted and lose more money. It's hard for a gambling house to go bankrupt because there will always be losers even if there are big winners so they can always cover up the winning amount plus they can also earn something.

Poker is not a fast game compared to dice, slot, blackjack and other casino games. If you have a good knowledge in the game, it can also make you lose less or even earn more out of it. This is why this game still remains while other games are banned on the streaming platform called Twitch. I guess you guys heard of that issue lately.

[Wiwo]

For those that choose gambling as fun they are lucky to participate in some tournaments as op mentioned and if you looking for the best poker site you can easily find them around. I have read through this topic and I have seen the various comments and suggestions, but we most know that not all games allow for group competition but in poker, one can easily play in a group.

Anything we are looking for we can always get it on the internet making it much available for us to get if only we can take little of our time and search for it. Poker tournaments are many and we can go for the ones we are familiar with or like to join with little or no effort.
The gambling world is becoming interesting having so many games we can play and make bets making some winnings.

I would agree with you because internet is for help you know what you don't know and in this kind of game what will do is to make a research about that particular game and the examine it very well to know if you play it will you win, because I need to play game to the one that you are familiar with not the one that you are not familiar with I don't think that he will play with it

I am struck by what they say about playing in a group, because playing in a group is a great option to be able to beat the opponents, and it is known that 2 ops have more bosses and think better than one, but the problem here is not that, but there is no platform that makes online tournaments to be able to play, all the casino games that are in the casinos are very good, and 100% realistic, but they are not live and against other people, if it were against other people one as a player would have more opportunity to win, and all those strategies that have been said could be applied, but where can you play live and have them be tournaments against others?

Professional players base their strategies on averaging winning. Sometimes it may be as little as an advantage of 1 in 50 or 1 in 20 if playing with less experienced players, but that is it. This means that they need to play as many games as possible and make sure that the strategy is correct in each and everyone of them. Not an easy task and one that requires plenty of preparation.

Well yes, if they do that type of strategy where they are averaged based on all the games played, then what should be sought is that it has a positive balance, that is, that they add up more profits than losses, something like that is how it happens with trading, when trading, market speculators have control of their profits and losses, obviously if they see that they have more losses they are not seeing trading in the correct way and have to rectify it, I think something like that can apply to poker or any other game in casinos, there must always be a balance in favor greater than the loser, otherwise I think nothing is being done.

For those that choose gambling as fun they are lucky to participate in some tournaments as op mentioned and if you looking for the best poker site you can easily find them around. I have read through this topic and I have seen the various comments and suggestions, but we most know that not all games allow for group competition but in poker, one can easily play in a group.

Anything we are looking for we can always get it on the internet making it much available for us to get if only we can take little of our time and search for it. Poker tournaments are many and we can go for the ones we are familiar with or like to join with little or no effort.
The gambling world is becoming interesting having so many games we can play and make bets making some winnings.

Yes of course, there is no doubt about that, only that when we start looking for some poker tournaments it is difficult to find those that are reliable, it is very easy to find one where you deposit, but very few where they are honest and pay when needed make a withdrawal request, this is what we have to be careful of, that's why it would be very good if one of the platforms that we have as the best, could venture into the world of poker tournaments, without a doubt it would attract many people in the world, not only here in the forum but also outside, these are some of the many advantages that having a poker tournament offers.
