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
Shoot for the stars, but aim for the moon
Shoot for the stars, but aim for the moon they say, and for good reason. You want to have your big lofty goals always as the primary objective, but you don't want your goals so big that they function as a point of discouragement when you don't reach them as fast as you think you should. Have your goals listed out, and make it a habit of checking them off and continually moving your goals posts closer to your ultimate goal.
First Goals
First Goals Take some time now to write out what your initial goals in online hold'em poker are. If you aren't sure, then start with something small and expand as you think of more things you want to achieve. Ideally write them down on a sticky note or something small that you can pin to your monitor or the place where you’re primarily playing online poker. Carry them in your wallet if you play a lot of live poker, take them out and read them before you sit down at the table. It may sound cheesy, but this will keep them fresh in your mind and help keep you focused and motivated.
