Poker Is More Than Luck 🃏

I folded pocket kings preflop last month because the tightest guy at the table 5 bet shoved and he showed aces after, that one fold probably saved my whole session.

fold discipline beats fancy bluffs every time in my experiance

Most of the table's just waiting for someone else to make a mistake, so I keep it boring and let them do the work.

tracking how many times you cbet the flop vs actually having it helps alot, i started checking back way more and my redline doesnt look like a cliff anymore

What's the one specific habit you built that helped you stay patient when the cards just aren't falling for an hour straight?

def more skill than luck tbh, but omg when you lose to a crazy river it just hits different ? imo

[voxrily96]

yeah the luck factor is real short term but over a session its all about who tilts first honestly. my biggest improvement came when i stopped trying to outplay every pot and just focused on folding early when i sensed the table was too aggro.

definitely more skill than luck over timme but i still struggle with knowing when to let go of a decent hand. what's your go to move when the board turns ugly and you already put chips in?

tracking how long you can stay in a session without tilt is a better metric thna counting your chipstacks early on. i set a silent timer for 30 mins and if im still steay i let the discipline do the rest.

I remember one session where I folded AQ preflop three orbits in a row just cause a tight player kept 3betting me, felt so wrong in the moment. Then I finally stacked him with kings when he tried it again, and he typed in chat "always the same hand". That patience really is the whole game.

After enough hands, patience always beats chasing gutshots.

Its just mtah and patience honestly.
