great post,
i knew how to play 5 card draw before i knew holdem
although i always confused the ranking between two pair and trips
i thought two pair was harder to make
also, i never understood what a full house was, i thought full house was holding 5 face cards
.
i only learnt no limit in february this year, i played tons since then so that's how i improved more than not.
i'm in uni so my friends taught me, we have weekly poker sessions which i never won, came second is the closest. but now i think i can win cuz i improved so much over the holidays right now.
there's a second group of friends whom i play with weekly as well, and i always pace first or second in that group
me and this one guy next door to me is obsessed with poker, i think we play atleast 4 heads-up games a day, playing for 5 pounds maybe
not much money but yeah,
