Hey,guys.Im new to the forum i play poker for about a week i already know the rules,read a lot of poker articles.Maybe i've already played over 2k hands.But i have some questions...So as i said i read a lot of articles i watch Poker After Dark,High Stakes poker etc. but i feel that i play too little...So my question is pretty lame but still im asking what should i do more to improve my game?Play or read?I already know a lot of poker terms,the positions and the other things. Affcorse i want to play more than i read so that's why im asking....and the other question is in lot of articles the author said what kind of hands you have to play in different position so do i have to strictly follow this?I mean i know that the range of hands i play have to be based on my position.I also know what weak cards means...

Sorry for my english,but i'm not born in english-speaking country

Fastest why too learn: Play in live games.

Play for a few months (live or online) and then read a poker book. Poker books are notoriously boring!

Ignore this guy ^^ he is wrong with everything he said.

Get the free download of holdem manager and run a hud as you play, look at stats, see if you can understand what they mean. also, google bankroll management. good luck.

thank you can you tell me some site which will convert my hand history?I use pokerhand.org but when i start playing in Poker Stars he can't convert my all session just the last hand.But before when i play in Lucky Ace i didn't have such problems..

asatov you have discussed a word hand history...what is hand history?

Well it means the hands you played.They usually are stored somewhere in my computer (you may choose where) in notepad file.So you can see them if you want,but its just text and it's booring so there sites that may convert hand history and make them easily readable.Get my point?If the answer is no go to pokerhand.org and paste some session and then click post hand.

Play as many games as you can possible, start off with a starting hand chart which you obey strictly, play at the micro limits and keep at it until you're beginning to be profitable.

Play a tight aggro game to get used to it, and loosen up as your post-flop play improves.

Play online, start yourself up with a free poker bankroll at one of these free poker bankroll sites, and then you don't risk losing any of your own money.
