As I posted earlier, I'm realatively new player (actually, I'm an old online player trying to revitalize his skills live). And, it's been working fairly well. I've been reading some books and playing alot, winning a little.
Last night, I decided to go up to the Red Rock and practice a little on the 1/2 NL sit and go tables. I got $100 in chips and played for 3+ hours. But gentlemen, being new to live poker, I have to confess, I get seriously bored.
Playing online, no matter if you'll admit it or not, things are kind of more relaxed...you're in your own home, football game in the background, pets at your feet, etc. You can go to the kitchen, sit out and watch tv for a while, etc. Playing live, there is much going on, and you have to pay much closer attention to the game, and every little thing around you, including 8 other guys reads and playing strategies. Which is great, but sometimes to me this gets excruciatingly boring, especially on the lower limit tables.
So, in turn, I start drinking after a while, my play starts to falter, etc. I'm not confident enough to move up to a higher limit table just yet.
Any advice?
