Are you the cocky type or humble type? I joined a poker tournament last weekend, I played with more than 100 people and I ended up in top 20, my last hand got dominated by the other player then I got knocked out.
I think it is very interesting to read people's attitude and characters on the poker table. Once somebody wins, they get really cocky like "I knew I will have you beat!" say something like that, they end up losing usually because they are overwhelmed. People likes to be corky because they want to show people he did win win but he ened up losing. That was just one of the examples.
I am the humble type honestly, I don't get arrogant or say silly stuff like that when I win at the poker table and not on the other stuff either.
How about you? Which type of person are you?

Hi, m, I am more of the humble type. I don't like to brag or boast about what I KNOW or THINK will happen. I will just like to take a chance and see. I don't like speaking too soon or too fast! I don't want too look stupid in the end.! I will be so ashamed!

First I'm going to say good for you at making it to the top 20. I'm not a very good poker player because i wear my emotions on my face, I love to play but everybody can tell when i have a good hand because of my smile. I do not say anything but they can tell. and i guess that's how it is with the rest of my life to. I've never been an arrogant person, but I've known a few, and i do not understand why they act that way.I am happy when i win, but i do not have to act cocky, or try to bring all the attention to myself.

I used to get very excited and shaky hands when I got good hands at the beginning, after playing more, I'm getting better hehe. I feel happy when Iwin but I don't act cocky, people says it is one of the things makes you end up losing. Thanks for sharing!:-)
