I’m not claiming to be Phil Ivey, or even a pro by any standard, but I can not win in the real money games on Fulltilt.com.

I flop top pair….they make trips.

I flop trips….they river a straight

I bluff at a pot….they call with low pair

I pre-raise with AK….I get called…..and AK never comes. Ever.

I have played poker for almost 30 years. I win a fair amount in live games and am usually am in the top 5 in my weekly poker league.

Someone give me some insight. Please!!!!!

BTW… I am not a quitter so please don’t suggest that unless you feel online poker is not on the up and up. I would quit once I figure out how to win :)
Thanks!!!!

heres my dilemma… i play in no limit poker tournaments everyday and i can usually always get a massive amount of chips….but then my bad luck sets in and i suffer one horrible beat after another.

ive tried sitting out, playing super tight, bluffing and mixing it up but i always get knocked out. when the tournament has hundreds i can almost always place in the top 50, when the tournament has thousands i can almost always place in the top 200.

ive been playing at least two tournaments a day for over a year ….im 22 been playing since 17 and ive only won a few tourneys and never first place…

any tips?specific tips on how to play a large stack would be nice…perhaps a link to some poker pro tips….thanx.

George
