I've been playing poker for awhile, and i always relish the experience of a new challenge or when friends use all their skills during our games.

I hated playing against aggressive player.

I also hated playing against calling stations.

Last night, i got exposed to a new group of players who just shove all in when possible.

But i think i adapt fast. Give me aggressive players and calling stations now and they would be my money tree. Yet, i am trying to shape my play and style to total unpredictability. It's tough, and i realise too many of the usual games with the same group of people is although fun and relaxing, we tend to rely too much on the character profiling we have done over the years.

I folded my top pair top kicker to fai's raise. Simply cos i know how he plays.

Yet up against new strangers, my play was very curbed. Had i more information night, i would be up much more in chips.

Ah well but last night was good. Even though i lost 20 bucks in the end, the experience was priceless.
