Poker Stories with Winning Lessons
Texas Hold'em Poker Stories with Winning Lessons me anymore. They weren’t going to get anymore of my hard earned money. I sat down at the table, once again with $200. They took my $200 in less than 1 hour, and once again, chuckled as I left. The grizzled old men once again offered me a piece of advice, “Boy, we’ve been playin’ texas hold'em poker before you were born. You ain’t gonna beat us, no matter how many videos you watch. Stick to the tourists.”
I went back to the casino’s cardroom
I went back to the casino’s cardroom Saturday night, and won $150 in two hours. The next Friday night I got a great run of cards and won $348. The old timer was right. When you play bad players— you’ll win in the long run. When you play against people better than you—you’ll lose in the long run. The key to victory in Texas Hold’em, quite simply, is avoiding excellent players as competitors. If you have to play with great people, learn from them. But, if you want to get rich, play in Saturday night tourist’s games. It’s that simple. Always remember, “What a difference a choice of games makes!”
