Just Played for Real Money for First Time

And came out ahead 77BBs. I was so nervous! But still made a couple smart plays, (TAG strategy with a couple of loose aggressive moves thrown in based on opponent reads.) Honestly, the cards made it easy. Although I never got a "monster," either I got junk or something straightforward, I also never landed in a tough spot. Pretty easy. Straightforward. I know it won't always be that way.

    Congrats! Never a bad thing to have a good first session. Unless, of course, it gives you the impression that it is easy (I remember many times thinking that!). But sounds like you have a good perspective.

    I was pretty nervous the first time, too, but it went pretty well. I played carefully in order to understand what strategy of the game my opponents are using. The training on this site and the youtube videos also helped me a lot. Now I play once a week and try not to chase big money. The combination "monster" has not yet fallen out to me, but I hope it will happen soon. I tried different venues where you can play and train, most of all I liked your playground and แทงบอล where my friend often plays. I hope that in the future I will be able to learn to play more professionally and achieve success in poker.
