i started drinking since i was 1 year old- and never stopped from there on. now i have quite a bit of experience in the department of booze, but i never stop learning- just like poker, finances, relationship etc. booze also demands for constant learning... you have to try out the new stuff, compare it with old, try to spot differences etc.

Rotje is absolutely right: Playing poker can be learned and there is so much material (articles and videos) on the web that you can do it 24-7. Unfortunately I am not taking as much time to study poker as I should. I prefer playing the game.

Like someone said before " Its take 1 day to learn poker, but one life to improve ", and maybe is right, because you can play 24 for 7, and you will lose, and keep learning every second, hour, day, every time is a change to get something new to you bagde, so keep going further and try new things and keep winning, or losing

I think it was Doyle Bronson he said "you learning poker in 5 minutes but to understand you need a life" it's one of my favorite sentence. I'm playing now many years and i everytime I play I try to make my game better I try to find my errors in the game,and it's work's it's not every time bad luck when I lost a hand,sometimes I playing bad and when you see you own mistakes is that the way to get a better player

Someone who say that he does not have anything to learn in poker or in any other part of is life does not live in the same planet of us.
At my age i still learn something almost everyday this is in general. In poker i do have a lot to learn but i am making the same mistake to often i suppose that this is human.

The way poker is played these days with people playing so much more than guys 20 years ago means if you do stop learning you will be left behind.It is so easy to watch how the top players play that anyone who does put in the time educating themselves should be able to make money,probably from players like me who just don't spend enough time learning.
