I did ... i came back about $300 up
not bad considering my pocket KK got beat three times & my pocket QQ got beat twice .... that blew
but my pocket AA paid off nicely
my friend on the other hand was down $1200 at the end of the weekend .... man he got some horrible beats

yeah mix up your play
dont be afraid to raise with a hands like 6-7 or 9-10 suited those suited connector hands will sometimes sneak up on people who hold big cards like AK and when you show the other players that you raised with those hands it'll be harder for them to put you on a hand so next time you pocket AA they'll pay you off

If you think you've got a good hand, rethink and knock 25% off how good you think it is..
Get caught blatently bluffing a few times to sucker people into running up against you when you really do have the nuts..
Always assume people know that you are slow-playing and be brave.Most importantly:
Fold early, and fold often.

pocket face cards can kill! beware. if you have pockey ladies and after the flor you have the highest pair still then go big, don't slow play it.
loose sometimes, make yourself out to not be a competitor.
either talk alot all the time and distract people or don't talk at all and watch people.

i've never got in to online poker. not playing against actual people seems to take so much away from the game

it's just knowing what you've got or trying to make. So basically knowing hand odds.

you can tell people that are just bluffing everyhand... on average cards are not that good for someone to win 10 hands in a row. So they are either bluffing or just on a role. If you've got a decent hand call em'. But don't bet more then your willing to lose unless you've got a good hand.
I don't go all in, unless i have my hand. If i'm counting on the river and have like 10 high. Forget it, i'll fold. Always protect what you have

joyride - expand on manage your money a bit... i'd like to know what you do
most people when they get back to even money play REALLY conservative.
i'm usually a little aggressive at the start to try to get in a cheap early win.

nice! oh a few months back i was playing and i was done so i left the table, the hand right after someone got a royal flush and the whole table one a bonus!!! its was like 2,500 each person!!
ARGHHHHHHHHH

manage your money...
I always play conservative at first until i learn the people at the table.
If i get my hand at the flop i never bet, i always wait for turn to get people in.
But just manage your money and don't try to make your hand on the river. just fold (on a raise) and wait for good cards to get it back. Unless you think you've covered his bluff/cards
I play on partypoker.net, i'll try fulltilt too

3x the big blind will put you in a heads up or 3 handed situation usually - I always get fuked on the river when I get cute and try to slowplay when there are more that 4 people in the hand.

I just played on wed and won 2 big pots with A K - KK with top kicker and flopped a straigt.
bingo!

more often than not i score trips off some stupie hand like 3 7 offsuit. it's crazy how much it happens.
made me play those fucking hands more than i should cause it seems like everytime i fold 2 3s drop on the board.
- jakeyj0
i've never had much luck with AK either.
i don't have a magic hand. i need one!
