New Table

Always take it slow when you first sit down... specially in a cash game... there is no hurry... doesn't matter if you fold a couple of hands early-on when you were actually ahead... wait till you get a read on the other players before you take a stand with top-pair...

poker is a war... losing a few early battles is immaterial as long as you don't let it affect your confidence...

it actually helps to have a semi-weak table image at first, cuz people will give you action in hopes of getting you off a hand...
