First day in Island- I had extremely hard and tiring flight, got transferred to hotel and waited in line to start my first session live
. Poker room not that big 1-2 tables at most , i had opportunity to observe other table while waiting. There was crazy action , 3-4 people cold calling 3 bets , almost no one folding to first raise and etc. Only thing concerned me to play at that table was mandatory straddles if someone calls ''round straddle'' everyone needs to do it. I thought it would be better to play short stacked(50bb) first to get feel for the table.
Second table opened after 30 minutes or so. This one was not as crazy and aggressive as other but still there were few clueless people playing. Here I learned new thing, they are doing bomb pots every half an hour or so (it is not mandatory but I thought it would not be nice to oppose). Overall, I had fun and had a break even night. If we consider high rake and free all inclusive hotel stay it was not bad start at all
I need few things to sort out to become better in live poker
1.Very few people folding to small cbet especially in multiway pots(which I made online around 80% with around 50%success). I got called at one instance all the way to SD with King high. It is good thing but I have online poker tendencies. My bluffs not working here or maybe I am giving tells unknowingly in live poker.
2.Boredooooommmm , I do not know yet how to fight it haha. Too few hands to play
3.Limp pots and Multiway pots- Because I did not encounter much of them online , I am newbie and looking ways to adjust
If you have any suggestion and help , I would appreciate
