I had such a strong desire to be results oriented in the very beginning that when I would fold a hand preflop on one table, I would pretend the flop on another table is what would have come.
I think this was more a way of me working out the game in the head by thinking through various card combinations and preflop hand strength, but that's still pretty funny. |

limp and chase, limp and chase.
Loved CR with KK and AA as a standard play.

I was reading Ken Warren's book on LHE. He had his starting hands broken down into categories. His suggestion for hands like J10s or KJo was "don't call two bets with these hands." I didn't understand "two bets." So, I'd be at the casino playing live 1/2 and it'd be 5 limpers to me and I'd look down at J10s. I counted the 5 limpers as 5 bets, so I'd throw it away cause if I couldn't call two bets I surely couldn't call 5.
When I first started online it was .25/.50 on Pacific Poker. I'd be in the SB and have Q2o. I'd call with any face-rag hand in the sb because the hand was "half good."

Just remembered another one, went to store to buy a book to learn NL. Got half way through it before realizing it was a Limit book.

Completed from the SB with ATC.
Axo and Kxo were playable for a raise In tournaments would go all in (super over raise) with small pairs so "the overs don't get there" More Im sure...

Stayed up past midnight to play the hubble freeroll on stars even though it didn't pay out anything on school nights.
Degen deposited $50 onto party even though I had $0 to my name via debit card. Played 2/4 lhe, lost it obviously. Not really anything silly playing wise to attest to other than poor bankroll management at beginning. |

When I was new I thought the game was about bluffing so I'd bluff all the time. I'd go all in pre .10/.25 nl on a bluff and thought I was cool winning the 35 cents, easy money.
I remember when I found out about CBing and thought it was the biggest revelation of the century, on this forum if I remember... |
