Tonight I am going back into the lion's den. I am playing in a local poker tournament. Our kids soccer practices used to prevent me from playing on Monday nights. This was one of my favorite poker groups. Many of them are really good players. The cash game after getting knocked out of the tournament got out of hand. Anyone could sit in for any amount they wanted. That sure puts my $20 at a disadvantage.
I plan to play in the tournament and not the cash game. Of course I would like to do well, but I really have no expectations. I think the key will be to try and steal some chips early. I also need to concentrate more on what I think the opponent might be holding relative to my hand. Another area I need to improve is reading the player and not rely so much on the cards.
Hopefully I will follow up with a post on tonight's adventure.
