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

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

you come home with any money?

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.

mix up your play.
if you never play 'so so' hands and always fold off the flop, they'll know you have something good everytime you call/raise off the flop.
dont' be afraid to watch everyones faces and hands (their real hands, not the cards). some guys who bluff or don't have that strong of a hand will touch their face.

ive had luck by selling a fake tell the entire game and then when it came down to the big hand, using that tell and then dragging them into the hand.

don't play. you'll end up with more money that way.
...or at least i do

I knew you were going to post first. haha
where can I play online for free to practice this stuff? I'm off today and this would be a great thing to try out.

the read i have the most trouble making is the guy who checks his cards after the flop.
depends on who it is, but I can rarely read that correctly.
any pointers on that.

i use full tilt, my dobs. better than the others in my opinion.

there's a million of them mdobs.
there's also a widget if you got a mac.

it depends on your hand, jakeyj. if you think you have a better hand, slow play it with him. if not, try and bluff him out. if you get caught, you got caught. but now you know.
(work best when ahead by a lot of chips.)

Don't fish in the beginning, play conservative but aggressive when you have the cards!
I love the check raise move!
- k0na_an0k0
because you have esp dobs?!? what am i doing right now. if you say flipping you the bird i would buy a lotto ticket.
- Ramanisky20
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
