To become a consistent winner at this game, at times you must do many things to deceive your opponents; these include changing your betting style and mannerisms in order to win pots. Expert players win many a pot with a weak hand simply by befuddling their opponents by raising just after being dealt a high card (king or queen) when they hold a cinch low hand. This kind of betting is done to get an opponent to declare low so that the expert may win the entire pot by his deceptive betting. This deceptive type of betting will often win a player many a big pot that his hand did not call to win.
Being able to read your opponents' hands is more important in becoming a winner in this version of Online Hold'em Poker than in any other. Knowledge as to whether or not an opponent will declare either high or low makes an expert a sure winner at this game. Not too often does a player's opponent possess a hand that will permit him to declare both ways.
