I posted BB to start playing and hit a pair of 7s on the flop. Stupidly I bet $1 which was WAY to much of a bet. After everyone folded a guy with a good hand half raped me because I just folded my stupid middle pair.
Bleeding isn't good...
I should have folded to any raise or at the very least bet 3x the BB to get information.
So its important to remember not to bleed money by betting too much.

I signed up for an account at PokerStrategy.com which is the internets largest FREE poker school. Excellent site. It has done alot to help my game and I am just finished the beginner reading material.
I decided to take the plunge…or rather dip my toe in and test the waters and play SnG $1 90 man tournaments. I just finished 4th out of 90 people with a grand total winnings of $7.65.
Honestly though, I started losing and in fact lost when I stopped doing what the PokerStrategy.com articles said to do.
SO this means I need to discipline myself to follow the guidelines laid down to the letter. Its the best way to get rid of the bad habits I still have.
Like anything worthwhile you have to master the basics and then you can get creative.
