How I Tripled my Winning Ratio in 30 Minutes


I discovered one of the best poker resources on the internet. www.pokertableratings.com.  (PTR) If you are going to keep playing online poker, you have to join this site. Joining is free. After you join, you can look up your own statistics. I discovered that I was playing like a wimp on preflop, and playing 5 times too aggressive post flop. I flipped my aggressiveness around, and started winning like crazy.

PTR tracks literally billions of hands, at all the major online poker houses. They compile statistics that you can use to analyze and improve your own game. You can also look up the people at your table and find out who is a shark and who is a fish--who to be afraid of, who to call on blinds.

They have so many useful tools that it will take me several posts to tell you about them.

Here is a quote from their site about who they track:
For the player research tools we are tracking 95+ % of the hands that get played on FullTilt (since 4/1/2008), PokerStars (since 9/1/2008), Bodog (since 9/9/2008), Party Poker (since 2/2/2009), Cereus Network (since 4/1/2008), and iPoker (since 8/1/2009) at $.5/$1 NL and higher, and $2/4 Fixed Limit and higher. Omaha Support for PokerStars and Full Tilt Poker was added in October of 2009.
