There's a lot of good advice here on the site in the forum and in Poker Strategies. One thing that helped me was this. Be patient and play only the best hands: AA, KK, QQ, AK, AQ and when playing smaller pairs try to see the flop as cheap as possible. Not saying other hand s are playable, but don't chase flushes and straights. Once in a while everyone does. Search through the site and find IslandJacks thread on "Playing SnG's". It was very helpful. Also, I see there's offers here in the forum from players like doomdy, retribution, jessthehuman and I think B1gfoot where they will assist players. Also, just what damosk state's is very good information. Remember to win is not an easy task because everyone you play want the same thing. Good Luck!

You just seem to remember the times you get sucked out on then the time you suckout on people. Dont say you have never sucked out on someone because we all have even the best players in the world have. ABC poker is great for the beginner especially at the micros and low stakes.

if you really want to be winning more- you should start playing heads up sng's- i'm not saying this will make you a winning player, but this will sure make you a player who wins more of his tourneys than before. another option is dons- 5 places out of 10 paid- this again increases your chances of winning more often

Well ,all of us want the same thing so is a competition with few winners and most of us loosers.Read ,wach video coaching,,use programms to improove your game.And if all that effort is not paid just QUIT.In poker bussines is the site that get most of the money and a few players,most of players are loosing their money
