Poker discussion

I would to learn how to play poker, though.

trying to learn from real tables straight away is better than just watching hours of tutorials honestly, the feel for the game only clicks when there's actual chips moving around

i still remember my first live game, folded ace king preflop cause i was too nervous lol the table looked at me like i had three heads

watch some texas holdem streams, the aggression on the turn is where you really learn the odds on the fly

I get why people say jump into real tables but honestly I think watching a few basic hand ranking videos first saves you from making dumb flods like that ace king story, no shame in a little prep before your chips are on the line.

I sat at my first table thinking a fush beats a full house and the dealer had to correct me three times before it stuck.

Are you thinking of learning Texas holdem or did you want to start with something simpler like 5 card draw? Just curious becuse msot beginners feel less overwhelmed with fewer variables.

I once lost an entire buy in because I mistook a straight for a flush in a home game, dealer just sighed.

I tried to bluff my sister with a 7 high hand and she called me with absolutely nothing just to see my face.

honestly the best way to learn is just jumping into a play money game and messing around till it clicks, but do you have a specific game in mind like texas holdem or you wanna learn something else first?

just messing around with play money might teach you some bad habits though, you might want to watch a few hand breakdowns on youtube firt so you at least know what not to do

Go big, Texas holdem preflop charts print em out.

no cap, once you hit your first big win you'll be hooked ? just dive in and learn as you go bro

I rmember spending way too long just staring at a hand ranking chart the first week, so you're already ahead by just wanting to jump in do you have a buddy who plays already or are you gonna be teaching yourself solo

The OP author's name checks out for a poer beginner somehow.

Fold more than you think. It's boring but it works.

start with just staring at the board textures for like 10 mins a day even with no cards, gets you reading patterns way faster

I don't really know
