Poker Strategies
After receiving pocket cards, you are immediately faced with a choice: play your cards and either raise or call the blinds, or fold.
Practice Matters
Some people play too many hands
Some people play too many hands and hands in the wrong situations that are easily dominated. Players who flat call don't have the initiative. Most players don't understand hand ranges and equity well enough to properly call down in the correct spots. Most players don't bluff in the most profitable spots.
Add it all up
Add it all up and in most cases you have complete spew. In all fairness, if most people who played online online hold'em poker ran the proper filter for this area, or used software like Leak Buster, they would see anywhere from bankroll sucking spew to minor winrate draining spew. There are some players that can and will have a positive winrate in this area, and this is what you should strive for too. If you suspect that you may have a leak here though, check your results, and then come up with a game plan for correcting it.
