Im down, as I have already printed it out a few weeks ago. What is the required reading for week one?

What do you guys think about his multitabling suggestion? Obviously playing 4 or less is best to get better at the game and play opponent-dependent poker, but at what point do people decide to start really grinding it out 6-12 tabling? I would imagine it is once you've crushed the game over many, many hands and know you can machine-it, ie making instinctual plays without having to keep up with the opponents. Obviously it is unlikely you'll get much better doing this, but your hourly will be great. Then after your br is massive, you can step back to 4 tabling, getting back to playing the players, then take a shot at the next level. Sound reasonable?

Not reasonable imho. Even 4 tabling is much harder than 3 tabling. Six or eight tabling is asking for massive tilt and destruction. Start with 2 tables, work your way up only after playing 20,000 hands (or more) with each number of tables. Compare win rates 5,000 hands into your new number of tables to do a reality check. And never go above four - if you can handle four profitably, you should be rolling in the dough, and should be going to the bigger limits when possible.

Everyone wants to think poker can be played like a machine, but guess what - if it could, machines would be playing 24/7, crushing any "idiot" still playing with his feeble human brain, and poker would be a past-time just like chess, played for pleasure and not money.

funny you say this, i'm somewhat the opposite. i noticed that 4 tabling resulted in me trying to play too much poker, and making too many moves. When I went up to 6, my winrate improved because i was only playing my good hands, and in position.

It all comes down to personal preference I guess - that's why poker is such a great enterprise!

I did try eight and even sixteen tabling once, but I found I was playing far too weak and getting taken off medium hands too easily, let alone mistakes due to simply not having time to look at a hand properly or to even remember simple things like who was the preflop raiser (and if it was me, should I c-bet).

Anyway, I guess for my style, I like to really play the opponent's tendencies. I think "moves" are a good thing, they make poker what it is. If I have to wait for a good hand for a few minutes every once in a while (gasp!), so be it!

This is weird. I play 6mx atm and i cudnt beard to fold 22 UTG. thats vry weak. usually PFR then OOP c-bet on alot boards, i check alot with hands so when someone ive been playing with for a while bets the flop im insta folding. its a great hand tho, 22 i make alot with it cbeting and value betting a set.

I dont get folding A10o in a loose game i think that hand has tons of value against J10, 109, q10 and k10.

i havent acc read the thing yet coz all the linx i find are trash but seen a few posts about ranges. must relate to higher limits.

Wow. Have the games really changed so much over the past year that someone was actually reading Fee's guide at 400nl as recently as the past year?

Can someone please email me a copy of the book -> runnawaybus@hotmail.com
