Especially when you are drinking. just don't.

Don't chase. Top pair or draw to the nuts to see the turn. other than that, get out.

So much for playing by my rules. Heads up in the $38 SNG, I have rockets and just call the BB. The flop comes 82555 and he goes all in on the river with quads.

If I had raised, he would have tossed his 57.

Lets make some rules for tourney play

In the SB, raise or fold. That's it. If you want to call, fold.

Be the driver. Stop calling and let others dictate the action.

Get tighter. Only see 20% of the flops.

Bluff only once in ten times.

Don't slowplay premium hands. Reraise with AA, AK, QQ, JJ.

Have to win 80% or more of the showdowns.

Don't try to bluff the big stack. You don't have enough chips.

I want to win, but I don't play enough to be very good.

Writing helps me learn and discussion would be fun.
