From my experience playing online poker and coaching at the micro stakes for over 10 years now I know that both of these are major problem areas for many newer players. For the most part they know what hands to play, when to bet, when to fold and so on.īut something that very few people are prepared for is how to deal with lengthy winning and losing streaks. Most people who play poker at the lower stakes these days have at least a general idea of what they are doing.
