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
Perceptiveness
Perceptiveness Perceptiveness goes somewhat hand in hand with self awareness. Generally the more self aware you are, the more perceptive you'll be because you'll have a greater understanding of human psychology and motivations. That's not always the case though, and I've personally seen some very self unaware people who were pretty perceptive. When you have well developed perceptiveness, you'll be able to more accurately predict how others are going to act, or react to your actions at the texas hold'em poker table.
The ability to read, react to, and anticipate
The ability to read, react to, and anticipate your opponent’s actions is a huge skill to have in poker. You want to be able to know that when you raise the flop with a bluff for the second time, how you expect your opponent to react against your play. Being perceptive enough to read into their thought process will allow you to force other players into poor decisions and make big mistakes.
