    thats the most important stuff tbh.

    when you come accross something you dont know how to work out, post it up here and I dont mind helping (if i can)


    lol, bet when you were at school you didnt think you would be seriously considering learning maths in your own time

     Rock man!-----How did you get to where you are today?---- you're a star on sharkscopes scheduled tournaments!

     If you did it with maths and coaching, I'd say get more maths and coaching ------- but if you did it on your wits

     and instinct, then, you will improve with experience------ there's a good chance that maths and coaching will 

    change your game a lot------You can't forget maths and coaching Rock, The mindset you have now will be gone


       You figure out whether you think the best players are the ones with maths and coaching, or the ones with 

    superior wits and instinct ----- and remember!-------The poker mindset you have now will be gone

    not sure I agree with this nutter :)

    I think both coaching and better maths knowledge would only improve your game, not change your style neccessarily. You are suggesting that if you know more you might get worse are you?!

     Come on though Rock, how many have your average roi, in tournies, and I hav'nt seen more than one or two with your ability score ----- You're a special Rock, Rock, ---- and the reason is because you play your own game, that you have learned, it's not an abc game, it works better against abc players than around 99.4% of other peoples games! ----- it means, (donkaments or not), that your game ranks in the top 1% of online players------ is it worth risking changing the mindset you have for the game?

     I am

    And you agree, you said "neccessarily"--- which means you think it might---- that's why I think Rock should'nt risk it----his style could'nt work more than around 0.4% better!---- we have sports psychologists because the mindset is very often the difference between winners and losers, why risk changing it?

    No most of my jobs in the past are s*** pay so ive allways wanted to go back and get a better grade in maths and english aswell. i know good grades dont always mean you get a good job but they certainly help with some lines of work ive tried applying for.

    OK, - I'm seriously not being condescending here,

     But I have found the 'for dummies' range of books pretty good.

    they're cheap enough & you can work at your own pace. plus a quick google has revealed there's several variations of the 'Math's theme, from basic to technical, or everyday maths.

    Genuinely think the video series from deucescracked that I suggested will give u everything u need. Starts with pretty basic stuff like pot odds that u Saud u already know but quickly moves on to more advanced stuff and is explained very well

    No idea tbh cos I'm mostly a cash player so didn't even look at the time, and I'm a life nit so what I did was sign up for the 1 month deal, download like crazy, probably downloaded like 300 hours of vids in a few days then cancelled within the 7 days so I didn't have to pay anything lol, so not a member any more.

    When I run out of them 300hr of vids (which will take a LONG time), I'll just sign up for 1 month again, rinse and repeat ;)

    I did a similar thing - I downloaded a huuuge torrent from a site (I shan't say where) - it's about 275+ hours worth of videos & i've watched about 4! I think some of them were deuces cracked stuff so maybe someone rinsed everything like you did & made it available to others in one handy mega zip-file!

    Must get on that I guess. No point having them if I don't consume them all.
