Card Memory and Table Analysis These are valuable assets in Texas Hold'em Poker. If you play Draw or any of its variations, practice remembering the number of cards each player draws; that information is vital. Memory also serves in Stud. Several players may, for instance, turn down their hands after the third-card draw, and those cards may include three kings. If you draw a king for your fourth card in a no-pair hand, and the king is your high card and another player has queens, you might—if you don't remember that three kings are dead—gamble on drawing a king because the pot is big. You gamble on an impossibility. Observation plus memory will save you money.
