    Chapter 5: Beginning Player Tips And Strategies (1)

    Playing poker is more than just the luck of the hand. It takes skill on your part. As we discussed briefly, your ‘tell’ can really give you away and allow someone to really take the prize when they shouldn’t have. In many games, it’s not always the person that has the best hand that wins. Rather, it’s the person that could stick around long enough to weather the storm.

    In this chapter, we will focus on giving you some tips and strategies that will help you to improve your game right from the start, before you move forward. When you play your first, or you 1001st game, you’ll be able to use these strategies to make sure that no one can walk away with more than they should in a game of poker against you.

    Your Hand: Keeping It Quiet

    Of course you would never let anyone see your hand as that would allow them to place a better bet on their hand, which would ultimately allow you to lose the hand or, even worse, have everyone withdraw from the game when you have a great hand to play. For that reason, one of the key things you must do is to protect your hand.

    The way that most people can tell what’s in your hand is not by looking at your cards, but watching your reaction to those cards. Here are some common reactions that people have. When you visit a casino, watch for these signs in other people.

    · You look at your cards and smile.
    · You look at your card and raise your eyebrows.
    · You look at your cards several times.
    · You place a large bet out of character (other bets have been lower.)
    · You have some nervous indication such as bouncing your leg or hand.
    · Your mood instantly improves.

    These are some of the most common mistakes that people make when they are playing poker and get a good hand. If you have a good hand, you don’t want anyone else to know that you do have a good hand. If they do, then it’s easy for them to fold out of the game and you win a small pot instead of the bigger one you could have gotten.

    In order to keep yourself from making this mistake, make a conscious decision to think about your reactions before the cards are dealt. For example, take your time and rethink the way that you are acting. Try to suppress emotion.

    Your Betting Strategy

    As mentioned, the other way that people can see your reaction and therefore make a decision about your hand is the way that you bet on your hand.

    Let’s say that for the last few hands, you have bet conservatively. When the time came, you didn’t have great cards or bad cards. You weren’t aggressive. Now, you get a good hand. You bet on this hand high right from the start. This is a clear indication to the other players that you have a good hand because they know that you aren’t usually betting high on a riskier hand. They fold out of the game, and you are left with a small pot.

    In an effort to overcome this, you’ll need to develop a betting strategy. A betting strategy is simply a term to describe your betting methods. The more varied that you can keep them; the more ideal your game will be played. The very best poker players are the most unpredictable players in the game.

    Pay close attention, watching the other players. Who is aggressive and who is playing conservatively? This can help you to determine how they are playing too.

    The best thing for you to do is to place bets more randomly. If you have an okay hand, then bet a bit better. The next time that you have a good hand; bet a bit lower than you normally would. Confusing the other players will work in your favor here.

    Here’s a mistake that many people make. They stay in the game of poker whenever they have an ace in their hand. While an ace is a vitally important part to the game, that doesn’t mean that you will have the best hand of the game.

    When do you know when to stay in the game with an ace in your hand? The best route to take, for most, is to stay in the game when you have another card that is of the same suit as the ace or you have a ten or higher with it. This gives you an increased chance of winning.

    What’s Everyone Doing?

    Part of your betting strategy is to define what everyone else is doing during the game. Any good poker player knows it’s not just about the cards in your hand, but the cards in other’s hands as well. Learning to spot the way that they are playing, namely the way that they are betting, you can benefit with a better chance of winning the hand.

    What’s their chip count? For games that are no limit games, there’s always the risk of losing it all if someone puts in all of their chips. But, there’s more to learn from this as well.

    While a mistake here in watching other plays can hurt you, you should also take note of how high they are bidding and on what type of cards they are bidding better. For example, are they a conservative bettor most of the time? If so, noticing this can help you to clearly see when they have a good hand (they will tend to bid higher.)

    Take your time to learn about the other players. When you take mental notes about the way that they play and any tells that they have, you’ll learn what their strategy is and develop your own against them.

    It’s also important for you to pay attention to your own game. Is your betting strategy working? What needs to be changed in it? What’s more, are you winning? Take the time to analyze your own weaknesses so that you can develop into a complete player that is hard to beat.

    These are some of the most basic means of controlling the game play from your standpoint. But, you also need to learn how to know what to bet and why. This will ultimately dictate how well you can play any hand.
