    wow 2 of mine already said with handling of tilt and BRM

    Getting the best out of your pc with regards to the set up of it to play on line poker. More of a technical subject,  I know, but I hope a few players would benefit from some tuition in this field.

    Following my SPT debut, I think I need to understand or be more aware of how to transfer your online game to live poker with 'real' people.

    A bit like playing golf for the first time, I found there's a few subtle rules and standard etiquette that I inadvertently stumbled across, couldn't believe how many 'daft' mistakes I actually made, which in turn put me off my own game.

    I guess a lot of it's down to experience and thankfully I came across people like Beaneh and Curlarge who put me right without taking too many of my chips in one go!

    I think that with the continued success of the SPT, live poker should be covered more in depth.

    how to get a big stack early on........

    i always seem to be on average stack,then end up in shove mode with 10/15bb,double up and push on or go out in a race.

    i suppose i know the answer is to loosen up,but at what stage?
