Been mucking around with hold'em a fair bit lately and I'm starting to realise how many chips I used to donate for no reason lol. I always thought having decent starting hands was most of it, but now it feels like position, bet sizing, and just knowing when to bin a hand are doing heaps more work than I gave them credit for.
So I'm curious, what was the first thing that properly changed the way you played? Tightening up before the flop? Watching player habits more closely? Cutting out the random hero calls? I'm mostly talking low-stakes stuff here, not super advanced theory.
Keen to hear the little tweaks that actually moved the needle for you, even if it seems bloody obvious now. Feels like this game has a way of teaching the same lesson five times before it sinks in...
