Watch some poker players on twitch. A lot of them talk their strat out on stream. It's amazing how much you can pick up just from watching. Pick up a couple of strat books, get good with managing your bankroll, etc. Personally I wouldn't make it my career, but I can understand why some do.

is this guy playing with real money or playmoney?

Eh, I just happened to see it while skimming the catalog, the only other board I could really see it going to is /asp/ or /tg/

Cant tell if you are already a viewer and just memeing or not, but the chips you see on the table are "Tournament chips" and aren't equal to real play money, You can see the buy ins at the top of the stream. (i.e. Bounty Builder $22 means he paid $22 usd to enter the tournament) Occasionally he has a command set up to show payouts, usually when he's In The Money.

The only time the chips on the table equate to real money is if they are playing cash games, usually they will include "cash games" in their title.

I stopped playing online and started solely playing 2/5 no limit in Louisiana (live in Texas)

Players at 2/5 no limit live are complete garbage. The players online, even at nickel/dime levels, are infinitely better. It's fucking astonishing.

Last weekend, hand I wasn't in, with board paired on river saw a raise, re-raise, re-raise, all-in.
>no full house
>it's literally a fucking idiot overplaying a flush against another, bigger idiot who somehow thought an inferior flush was good

I highly suggest it. Hopefully you get one of these idiots betting into you and you have something nasty.

i dk what 2/5 is.. 2 dollar / 5 dollar?

anyway. I'm afraid of gangsters following me after a win...

$2 Small Blind/ $5 Big Blind

Bankroll management is as important as skill.
Played siuited gappers and connectors when youre in position, fold them when you're out of position. 3 bet in position more than out of position. Position is where you make your money, out of position is where you lose your money.

Speaking as the most autistic person here on such matters, poker technically belongs in /tg/, but is cool/relevant enough to be posted here instead for convenience

Shreveport or Lake Charles? Which Casino?
Thanks.

I play mtt only and manage to win around 4-5k every month. I can live fairly okay with that money, paying my rent, college, etc.
I use 888, Unibet, Betsafe and Stars mostly.
