In-Tune News You’ll Want To Use

Winning at poker almost never happens as a direct result of one action; it’s usually a culmination of a series of good fundamentals. Let’s take a look at some of those fundamentals. -Raise, don’t call. If it’s worth calling, it’s worth raising. If you’ve got a winner, raise and put everyone else on the defensive. It’ll put more money in the pot and throw everyone else off their game. -Give up the little pots. If the pot is small, and there’s a chance you won’t win, just get out of the hand. It’s not worth the risk for small pots-if you wait for the big pots, you’ll have the chips to throw at the big pots. -Eat the weak. Look for the newbie, the tight player, and any other poker player with habits. If you’ve noticed that someone has a pattern that you can exploit, then it’s your duty as a poker player to apprehend their chips as soon as possible. -Everything in moderation. As with everything, moderation will keep you alive in poker. Find the line between overly aggressive and overly cautious and you’ll be tough to read and even tougher to beat. -Fold big hands when they’re beat. This goes back to the “Don’t marry your cards” theory. I know you waited forever for those pocket Aces, but when there are two Tens and a Five on the flop and the other guys are raising and re-raising, it’s time to let them go.
