Basic Poker Tips Beginners Players

 

What information do beginners and those who have some experience, but just can't get started, need?

 

1. "Tight is right

 

Tight is the right thing to do. The fewer hands you play, the easier your postflop decisions will be. As your career progresses, you may be able to loosen up a bit more, but you shouldn't at first.

 

2. Don't overvalue yourself

 

The world of poker is big, and although it may seem harsh, you still don't know what to expect.

 

At the tables there are other players with similar goals and who also know the basic rules of poker. Even weak players have their own strategy and can also hit on the flop or complete a draw on the river.

 

Don't think that because you are motivated and have started well, the boats will jump into your pockets. Respect all opponents and accept defeats, because you are going to suffer some.

 

Even if you were the best player at the table, that is not going to give you the right to be the top winner.

 

3. Theory

 

Theory, as is often the case, is less fun than playing.

 

But just like in school, university or your work life, here nobody gives anything away. What worked yesterday may be a serious mistake tomorrow. You change the limit, the rooms, the format: the important thing is to be up to date.

4. Think

 

Although you should use the starting hands chart at first, that shouldn't stop you from thinking for yourself.

 

You should assess each situation from the beginning, especially post-flop. There are no standard situations, each case is different, the combination of starting hands, tables and opponents is too great.

 

Don't fall into the same lines over and over, try to justify why you should follow a line and if you're not sure, pass.

 

To clarify your doubts you have the strategy forums and the hand evaluation forums.

 

5. Be aggressive

 

Try to embrace the concept of the TAG (tight aggressive player). Tip 1 is true: playing tight you won't be wrong. However, do not miss opportunities to be aggressive and put pressure on your opponent, it is better to go over than to fall short.

 

Don't take your foot off the gas.

 

6. Don't go on tilt

 

Tilt is one of the biggest problems for almost all poker players. They allow the results to sway them too much, altering their mood, their game, and blaming anyone but themselves.

 

On tilt you stop playing your best game and lose control. You should'nt do it.

 

7. Patience

 

"Patience is a virtue!"

 

Rome was not built in a day. Set realistic goals, leveling up each month and ending the year playing head-to-head against Phil Ivey is not a realistic goal.

 

The higher you aim, the harder your fall will be. Play with patience and accept what happens to you. If you're playing well, there won't be much more you can do to change things.

 

8. Bad streak?

 

If your bottom line doesn't stop going down, it may be because of a losing streak, but that's just one possibility.

 

Many players who have losing streaks that seem to last a lifetime are actually not playing well.

 

Look for mistakes, work on your game and examine it. You can't always blame bad luck, although of course it plays a role.

 

9. Variance

 

We come to a hot topic: variance.

 

Do you lose ten heads or tails in a row? They are things that happen!

 

Lose 50 stacks? They are things that happen!

 

Does the same thing happen to you but in reverse? They are things that happen!

 

The variance has many faces, you just have to familiarize yourself with them. Transform your enemy into your friend, because there is no way to escape from her.

 

10. Sample size

 

Winning two heads or tails in a 500 hand session does not make you a good poker player. What matters is what you achieve in the long run.

 

"Everything is a very long session" ... follow this motto. What works wonders today, may not work tomorrow. You need to try to see the whole thing and show that your game is good requires more than a few thousand hands.
