A Few Poker Tips
- Try to sit to the left of a loose player. This means allows you to consider whether or not you should bother calling the bet. Nothing more annoying that calling and then getting raised big time.
- Bluffing shouldn't be done when you have absolutely nothing! It means give off the impression you have a better hand than you actually do. If you bluff with nothing and they call, you could end up in big trouble.
- When playing at casinos or online, try and take in the maximum possible amount onto the table with you. This allows you to maximize any wins you get.
- Learn to be patient!! Even if you keep getting bad hands it doesn't mean the table owes you winning hands.
- Be realistic - last time you folded a 27 you flopped a full-house? That was a good fold so don't bother playing next time either - it was just luck that you flopped a full-house.
- Just because you've lost some money don't go crazy and loose more! Money saved is just as useful as money won.
- Loose player suddenly checking? Could be a sign of danger so don't bluff!
- No 27 unsuited is NOT your lucky hand, fold it!
- Playing with reflective sunglasses is not a good idea... Yes one of my friends did this without realising and you could see his cards!
- Don't play poker with what you can't afford.
- Learn to give up great starting hands. Realise that AA or AK suited CAN still lose.
- It's not about how much money you have put in the pot. It's about the money you need to put in at present.
- You make money by making good decisions.
