PokerTip: Start Slow
Start Slow By WagerWeb.com and Ecobika -> Pokertips One of the most important decisions you make in poker could be the first one, and it could set the tone for the rest of the evening. That choice is what level of Texas Hold'em you want to play. There are obviously several, but don’t be lulled into a bigger game than you can handle just because you have visions of big pots. During one of the rare hands he was out of, I engaged him in conversation to try and figure out if this was an act or not. He dug into his wallet a couple of more times before he was finally finished, a mere three hours after he sat down. He lost 0 in that time and had the look of total defeat when he finally rose from the table. The lesson for him, if he chose to learn it, is an important one. Know your limitations and accept them. Play at a table you are comfortable on and learn the nuances of the game. That is what is so valuable about online poker. No one sees some of your mistakes online and the people that do see, it doesn’t matter. You are anonymous. It is better to make those mistakes online than to do it in person, because I guarantee you people will remember. I don’t even know that guy’s name whom I was talking to, but I sure remember what he looks like, and the next time he shows up at my table I’ll know that he is an inexperienced player. A good way to start is to play - for at least 10 trips to the card club. You aren’t going to make much money, resign yourself to that fact, but also know that this is a learning experience. The guys who play those tables are usually perpetual losers. They play too many hands, they chase too many flushes and straights and they complain every time they lose. Every beat to them is a bad beat, and unfortunately you get to hear about them all. It will help you lose the rabbit ears. I don’t even hear the complaining anymore, which is good, because when you get to the higher level games, complaining is used as a tool to throw you off your own game. Move to -, and the dream chasers are still there, trying to fill their flushes and straights, but there is more skill there. You still aren’t going to chase them off with aggressive bets, but you will learn a little bit more. The - table is where skill really begins to take hold. The players don’t chase as much, and the ones that do aren’t around long because of the pot sizes. This is where you should spend a good amount of time. I am a pretty decent player, but I still play this level because it fits in my comfort zone. When you move to the - table, expect at least one professional at your table. This is a good place for them to shark a little bit and take money off players who are not as seasoned as them and maybe a little loose with their chips. Identify them and stay away, unless you feel you have them beat. You will know you have them beat because they will fold. The bigger games can be lucrative, but also have bigger players there. They have been playing for years and have honed their skills. You should do the same whatever table you choose to sit down at. Try your PokerSkills here for FREE, click here NOW!!!
