What's good form going into the Weekend?

Postby TheShadz » Thu Oct 22, 2009 9:49 pm

just popping the question

really bored atm.

Won my 1st freeroll/rebuy online tourny today,
and on tuesday won my 1st Challenge event as well, and the same night I won in away at my local,

would that constitute being in form.

Yeah Congrats on the win mate, well done.

That was definitely one of the funniest final tables I have played for ages, seemed that all the short stacks had to do is put their chips in and they would suck out on the river every time!!

I recon that is the first of many for you....
What?, poker without the river??, you've just made my dreams come true!!!

Results don't matter much if you don't feel in form yourself, and feel confident you've got the ability.

I've never been in form.
We've how about links I would like to know I walk the line scrunches line at how the client Lawrence etc. etc.

okay then

how do you know when your form,

If you know your betting patterns are right,
knowing your folding the right hands when your behind
and does luck have anything to do with form?

or is it all the above?

I think good form in poker is just being on your "game" where you've experienced good results with the moves you've made and you feel confident the moves you're doing are the right ones for the most part. A good run of cards would help the confidence a lot.

Also a good sign of being in form is if you are consistantly right in your assumption of what cards your opponent(s) are playing based on how they have been playing....

yeah, good question shadz, i would say that if you are feeling confident in your game, then that is all you can hope for.

sometimes you can be playing like a gun, but then you get 2 outered 5 times in a row and bust out early.

and sometimes you can be playing like an idiot, but you just go on a rush and win 3 in a row or something like that.


so its more about whether you feel are making the right decisions at the table, which is pretty much what jmack is alluding to. thats all you have to worry about really.
