what's the required %... - Page 2

I'd recommend you stop playing.

Abrasive, ignore all the haters on here who are putting you down. You say you get your money in the pot with the best hand 85% of the time? Well winning poker players have the best of it at least 88% of the time. If you want to be successful, you have to up your percentage.

omfg rofl

scratch that u def arent

man people can be so straight forward and blunt sometimes ;D
Show a bit of love and a bit of euphemisms, we all need to love each other!

nazgul and travis are harsh but they really do mean to help (i think) - and in their eyes being succesful at poker is less of a dreamy fantasy because they know all the bad stuff that comes with it while the rest of us fantasise about how nice it would be


be that as it may, I still can't stand hearing "you won't succeed no matter what" - i really hate it when people underestimate each other, I bet he could be succesful at poker if he tried extremely hard

I'm sorry I was being a dick, I should have said that differently but it's still my honest answer to your thread's question


how much % of the time do I need the best hand? it doesn't matter, you just need to win money.. and if you manage to bluff people all the time, you can win money consistently even if you have the worst hand when the money goes in all the time. You can also get your money in with the best hand all the time and be playing terribly and losing.

in order to be getting 'your money in' with the best hand 85% of the time you need to be folding 99% of the time and you do neither of those so you're just a fucking idiot

Anyway to answer your original question abressive. You are stupid. Please do what Travis said or better yet stop posting

ROFL @ grot

i don't mean pre flops. I mean at the moment when i put my money into the pot, say after the flop or at the turn. if flops comes something like K24, and i have AK. i put my money all, smeone with K10 calls. this is what i mean.

we understand what you mean

abrasive... 1 word: disciprine. disciprine my friend.

Well stop putting money in the pot preflop when you're behind too, then.

Don't know where you pulled that 85% from, but I have a pretty good idea... And if this infact is true, after 2 years, the only reasonable explanation is that in the 15% you go in when you're behind, you put in MORE money than that 85% you put money in when you're ahead.

The fact that you aren't winning yet should be considered a sign of either lack of talent or lack of dedication. Plus the "advice" you've been giving in other threads have been abismal at least. One that comes to mind was that "if you're running cold, you know you're not going to win anything that night anyway"- post which makes it pretty clear that you have yet to master the very basic ideas of the game.

Cheers.

If you really get your money in with the best hand that much of the time a) you have the worst luck in the world b) You REALLY REALLY pay people off when you dont have the best hand.

What do you define as "the best hand"

presumably its anything from 51% favourite up. Maybe youre just getting into coin-flips all the time.

i do not believe you are winner at nl100
you are retarded and you will never understand why

Or making bad calls when he's outdrawn.

No wonder these guys blew at brood wars. Look at how they think.

Abrasive, you're looking at an unsubstantiated and totally useless piece of stand-alone data. "85%+" <--- LOL

What type of games ure talking about ?

Yea that's what I meant when I said I have pretty good idea where he pulled the 85% from... Post your stats from pokertracker (if you don't have it, after 2 years, you should get it). They tell awful lot.
