Good luck in learning the real game, but retain a little daftness, you wouldn't be the same Paige we all know and love without it.

If you put as much effort into poker as you put into making people smile at your comments.

You'll master the game in no time at all!

Good luck Paige!!

hi Paige,
always enjoy reading your posts as they are as daft as a brush.  ha ha
(that's a compliment by the way) lol

think u will find john connors tips helpful,and if u follow them,to the letter,
then i'm sure your game will improve 100% over-night.

my advice,for what it's worth  lol
if it's the dym route u r thinking of going down...
get to the £1 games asap then the £2's & £3's will follow,less rake obviously.
you should learn to multi-table as many tables as possible,if u r not already doing so,as this will help you beat the variance.

good luck Paige,

dev

    Best of luck Paige,glad your turning over a new leaf.Devonfish advice is good. The 60p dyms they will call with anything(like me) 1st hand other week with AA raised 100 (10 and 20)and got 4 callers .PS the 62 off suit done me The best thing that happened to me were when the doctor put me on anti biotics the ones you are not allowed to drink booze with and i ended up winning 11 on the trot ! Glad the course is over now and i am back to normal lol.

Hi paige you say you get big stack then it all falls apart, in DYMs when you have a good stack

hold back playing. If someone raises big pre flop just fold, play position and then only with

prem hands, remember you only have to finish not win....

Right give us a shout when your playin get me bank roll up...lol.

MAXALLY

GL with this Trish. And GL in your quest to become a 'proper' player.

Just two pieces of advice for you....

1) Still try to ENJOY the poker.

2) Always have a snowball in your hand when updating your diary.

Dont want sadness Paige just happiness all the way. If you struggling at holdem why not give omaha a go. Lots more fun. Keep your head up and gl at tables.

gd luck paige my advice just watch alot of poker on the internet 

unknown_username

Best advice I can give you in 60p DYM's is FOLD a LOT and let the others do the work.

As john conner notes in his DYM Blog - it is even possible to fold AA pre-flop to an all-in if it is goin to risk your tourney.

Best of luck paige
