Poker Article

BY: S. Shylo

When the site administrators asked me if I’d like to write a monthly article, immediately my brain was flooded with 1001 different ideas on what I should write. But as I sit here now facing the computer my mind is shooting blanks!

I suppose for the first article I should tell you all a little bit about myself and my intentions for writing this article.

When it comes to poker I certainly do not make any claim to possess the skill required to be a professional poker player. I have been playing this game (Hold’em in particular) for over 3 years. If I were to categorize myself I guess I would consider myself to be a serious student and competitive recreational player in the game of poker. At no point in my life do I wish to be a professional poker player. I simply don’t think I’m good enough, and even if I was, I don’t think I could handle the stress that would be associated with such an occupation.

So what are my intentions? Glad you asked! While you already know that one of my passions in life is poker, the other is teaching. I love to teach others. I love to see how others learn and develop new skills, especially if I had anything to do with the growth process. And finally, I have noticed that as a teacher you are always learning and always being challenged by students, and new issues or concepts for any subject matter.

After having read this much of my first article you have probably already come to the conclusion that I am certainly not an English teacher! This is true. I am not. In fact writing has to be one of my most challenging tasks. So for now, and forever on, I sincerely do apologize for any misspelled words or grammatical errors in any of my articles.

As many of you know I frequently reply to several posts made at the poker forum. And I will continue to look to the posts as a source for information and inspiration for upcoming articles. So please keep up with the great posts!

Well… I think this will do for now. I’m due for a nap.

Aces and Faces
