I am a littl better then average i think. Have so much to learn. My goal is a winning player at $100 stakes sit n go. But not for now lollll Now playin $10/$20, gettin better but have sooooo much to learn.
I vote " I am a fish " juat because there wasn't " I am a donk "
To be serious I began playing 4 months ago and I think to have a long training to do
before having good results
I don't have the time I would like to play for have a family,children, job but I like this game very much and I'll keep on spending my evenings playing to become a real player

im very good in playin live poker to be honest. can read opponents very good, and im a good bluffer - my timings are perfect + i got often very lucky with cards ...thats also something you need. but to online poker im kinda new, and paid a lot lessions (and had often some realy bad luck). but you learn from mistakes, and losing money here and there is a must, so next time u know better (better lose in beginning a few bucks and learn, instead to think your good and later you lose your whole bankroll cos of your arrogance). well for me is online poker harder to play then live, since i cant see his face, reactions etc..but im improving daily! so back to the poll...tight i guess, sometimes unpredictable - good combination to play poker? i think im decent player, and every day i get better and better ! so watch out !

I usually play tight/aggressive, but I adapt my play according to the read I have (or think I have) on the rest of the table. I've been known to lay down AA preflop in th eearly stages if someone pushes all in. Too many bad beats to risk all when th eblinds are still so low.

i voted myself as a sly player, never raising with monster hands and allways trying to trap people, most people think this theory is wrong but in my opinion sometimes you need to kiss people before you can f**k them lol.

In the early stages, yes, sometimes I do. No intentions of losing all to some fish hitting trips off a hand he/she should have folded in the first place. I play mostly at Pokerstars... where that kind of thing happens all the time

GuttingFish, I play to win. I'm not folding AA if some donk goes all in preflop. What happens if you fold, next hand you get QQ, you raise and donk comes over the top? Fold, fold, fold? I play to win, you got to be fearless if you want to win a tournament. You got to be a wrecking ball! Bulldozerrrrrrrr!!!

I chose sly. Why? Because I think that's the best strategy there is for efficient moneymaking, and the facial expressions of the other players are priceless when they lose the hand

ok, I voted for so so, because I think I'm a pretty good player and I 'm playing some time already and I think my problem is my patience with my bankrollmanagement, I'm just overdoing it sometimes and then get out of luck for a long time, I think there's still much to learn, but I paid for some lessons quite enough, so I hope I can finally get on the winning side through Bankrollmob and proper bankrollmanagement

I too voted "fish" as I'm still new to the game. Only been playing for about 5 months and even though I frequently get "in the money" in buy-in tourneys I don't feel I deserve to be called anything but donk/fish. But I'm learning....fast! And there are too many lucky donks out there who think they are decent pokerplayers because of a little luck - good thing is they contribute loads of cash to the pot. I hope to remove the donk-tag from my forehead sometime this year
+ i got often very lucky with cards
