Poker Tips

Poker takes a lot of strategy and skill; you have to know what you are doing. I recommend playing free online games (I personally like fulltilt.com) if you are a new player or want to try out a new strategy. If you really want to get good when you’re playing those free online games, play like you would if it was real money. The reason why is that when you play free online games, you don’t act the same as you would in a real game, so basically you don’t improve any. I also have some tip that would have helped me; when I started out. In your first real money game, try to play as long as you can, the reason why, I want you to do so,  is  that you can watch other players mistakes and, the thing that they do right. Plus if you play with these same players, a lot it will help you read them better; for next game. Now I don’t mean just check the whole time, you should be looking for what is a really good hand and what a bad hand is. You should also check for things before the flop, like if someone raises before the flop, they usually have Pairs or high cards suited, thus check your hand making sure you have something good or better. Also watch how they play after the flop one thing to watch for is their eyes; to see if the right card comes up. If the other player look at their hand and the community cards a lot, he might be making sure they have something; like a straight or a flush. In addition watch how person plays with their chips, if they throw them in the middle of the pot. That is more than likely the player might be bluffing. As they are trying to scare you off; the player is acting as if they don’t care; well they do care. If your opponent player keeps the pile closer to them, and still stacked He or she might have something good. Their thoughts are that I’m going to win this. Thus he wants to take the pile back the same way, he or she had it.

These are a few tips for everyone learning or just checking it out. Also feel free to make comment or ask any questions. Like what should I talk about next time?
