All,
I've taken the first step in what I hope is a glorious career in Poker. I've seemingly mastered my home game, and am now interested in Casino HE. I've read countless articles and have just purchased Hold em Excellence, and More Hold Em Excellence. I'm on my way. Next are a dozen or so other books, some Wilson Software, free play practice on-line, then a dive into the deep end.
I played HE 5-10 exactly once in Moheegan Sun, wound up seated at the wrong table and immediatly spotted the sucker - ME. Anyway, that was 2 years and countless hours of poker ago and I'm looking forward to the No Limit HE satalite next weekend at the Taj.
Wish me luck and please, any advice would be welcome especially play on the turn and the river (starting hands and position are not easy, but the easiest 2 of the4).
Game on
Frank

Hi Frank,
Your post indicates that you are a much more experienced player than myself so the only advice I can give is to remind you to keep a handle on your emotions,leave hunches to the losers and play your best.Best of luck to you.

Don't quit your day job yet :-). Give it a couple of weeks!

Good Luck

And especially don't go pro immediately after you win a satelite and finish in the top three for the main event.
