Hey everyone….

 

Been here a few weeks now….finally get to just say hi.

 

So here’s my story:

 

33 yrs old, so i’m sure i’m a dinosaur here. I’ve been playing poker on and off for a few years….but never really pursued it. Mostly just gave up for long stretches after getting frustrated. I’ve been very successful in my “real” career…so never really took poker for much more than a hobby, but it’s always been something I keep coming back to. I’m an avid student….so even when I go a year without playing, I still continue to read books, magazines…etc. on poker.

 

So now I’ve decided to give playing another go. My biggest issue in the past is not having confidence. I have been on other training sites, and I watch the vids and I get it….but then I launch a table and I just totally blank. I also think I need to work on my aggression level.

 

Sorry for the long intro….but want to start getting involved in the forums and see what i can do. I’m looking to be the poster boy for this site…..no tourney wins ever to crushing those MTT’s….maybe a before and after pic Wink

  I know where you are coming from, when you are not playing you feel like you know a lot but when you do play you feel like an idiot. For me it was excitement blinding my poker knowledge. I became more focused when I started using Hold em Manager and the HUD because you see the things that the pro’s talk about and what you read in books. I also keep a poker journal where I write stuff down that I find useful and review it throughout the day. Welcome to the site and see you around the forums.
