What do you think you do better than your poker competitors?

What helped you improve your game most when you were grinding in the beginning?

probably cash, but it depends how small stakes you are starting. you can start playing real small tournaments/satellites and build a roll to play cash with. it will almost certainly be in your best interest to play cash once your roll is in the area of ~$2k imo.

i feel like i just almost never auto pilot, i'm always taking everything into consideration and not just 'clicking buttons' as some would say. this might not sound like a lot, but it goes a long way to just pay attention.

well training sites weren't really around at the time, so definitely just talking poker with friends i met through 2p2, and posting on the forums.

every once in a while(still occurs occasionally) i'll just hear something and it makes so much sense. i'm pretty sure this qualifies as an aha moment, but i've had quite a few. most recently i was talking to gabe p(CiB legend) and he was telling me a hand he played at 25-50. he opened the co and raptor 3-bet the button, and he mentioned the players in the blinds were both good so raptor's 3-bet range will prob be wider since he doesn't 'need' to call hands that play well multiway to induce a fish to come in behind. and i was just like wow sick good point, i never woulda thought of that.

bongs, i've heard volcanoes are sick too.

obviously the former, but the latter is an impossible occurrence ain't it?

not taking all the variables in a situation into account before making a decision.
