But poker isn’t some sort of widget that comes with easy to assemble instructions. There are a wide variety of games with different rules (and strategies). There are even different betting structures (like Limit versus No Limit) and different game formats (like normal “ring” games versus tournaments). Here are a variety of links to pages on this site that deal with the basics, from game rules to hand rankings to basic strategies. After a bit of reading, these days the best way to learn how to play poker is by playing the free poker games at an Million Euros Online Casino Payout — or even just watching others play. It’s very simple to do, you download the software, sign up (doesn’t cost anything unless you eventually play for real money) then click one of the active tables and watch how the game moves and how Poker Amex hands are played. If you want to play, click an open seat on a free-play table and start playing. The learning process is greatly accelerated, and you don’t need to rely on friends to put together a game. Online there are always games to play or watch. Naturally free games are wilder and somewhat unrealistic compared to money games, but in terms of offering a way to learn the fundamentals, nothing else in history compares.PlayWinningPoker.com aims to help players learn to win at online poker , but before you can win at poker, you need to learn how to play poker!

Reflections on the Full Tilt Poker Smear Campaign

Reflections on the Full Tilt Poker Smear Campaign
published on 09/21/11 at 4:18 pm With all the news coming out about Full Tilt Poker and a so-called Ponzi scheme, I felt the need to say something. First, let me start by saying that Full Tilt Poker is a class organization that has treated this organization and overseas bank accounts fairly throughout the years. Howard Lederer and Jesus Ferguson are honest, trust worthy individuals. Not to mention, Rafe Furst, although he did move to Mexico, I can only say his work with charities and the Bad Beat on Cancer have garnered the utmost respect from me. Second, it is a shame to see the U.S. government stick their noses into something that was good for the poker industry, the nations economy, and an individuals self esteem. The majority of players online are terrible and just give money to the lucky few. But these players kept depositing funds into their accounts, helping my lifestyle with a variety of extravagant needs. So what a player did not know about the inner processes of Full Tilt, did not hurt them. They would never have withdrawn funds in the first place. Third, all these dopes posting about a 400 million dollar hole in Full Tilt Pokers finances, do not know one thing about international finance. 99% of their money is in overseas accounts. To get their money into U.S. accredited bank accounts takes several months, due to the Patriot Act. I believe Mr. Lederer and Mr. Ferguson are just waiting for the funds to go through the proper channels and everyone will be promptly paid. So let us stop slinging the proverbial mud at Full Tilt Poker. We need to let this show trial run its course and in the end, you shall all see that they are innocent of all charges.

Strategy with Kristy: Randal Flowers Discusses Bluffing Preflop

For this edition of Strategy with Kristy, brought to you by South Point, Flowers sits down with Kristy Arnett to discuss bluffing preflop. Here is a snippet from the interview: How do you balance the need to steal with the fact that these days many players know that you’re stealing? If I have a very aggressive player or two to my left and I’m in late position, and there’s an obvious weak [player in the] big blind, I don’t know how often I’m going to open very light. I’m anticipating getting flatted, and people messing with me after the flop because they know I don’t have that great of a range. A lot of times, the general strategy should change to fold. Play tighter if there are good aggressive players behind you. But, if no one is really messing with you, you can sneak in a raise with a pretty weak hand. With what kind of range are you willing to go for blind steals? Well, live is way different than online, and I haven’t played online in so long that I guess my strict math fundamentals aren’t as good as they should be. When you play live, people look at their hands before they’re supposed to, so I could be in the hijack and know the guy on the button is already holding his cards that he wants to fold. So then, I’m really in the cutoff. You should play way, way more hands in live poker, in my opinion. What raise size do you prefer? I vary my raise sizing more than most, but generally, I think 2.5 times the big blind is fine. What really matters is, if it’s really early in the tournament, and you’re very deep, I would recommend raising 3 times. Maybe midway through the tournament, when there still aren’t antes and the average stack is around 50 big blinds, I think under 2.5 times is probably better because you’re risking 250 to win 150 if the blinds are 50/100. With no antes, if you get three-bet, it puts you in a tough spot. You’re never really getting a good price so depending on stack sizes, I think you can risk less.

Dealing with Sore Losers

Dealing with Sore Losers
Once in your poker playing life, youll come across one or more players that simply cant step to the beat of losing and winning. These people are those who probably think they should win simply because their opponents seemed to be winning the entire day, which is not a good excuse for losing badly in poker matches. Sometimes, these people are players of online poker who is relatively vulnerable to tilts and emotional overload. These people attitude can range from mildly annoying to downright nasty. Playing with these kinds of players is not a major issue in online poker. It is something poker sharks are actually waiting for to have players make a fool out of themselves and waste even more money on aggressive behavior. While you can very much take advantage of this emotional weakness in a live table, it pays to know what should be done when youre opponents emotional barometer go into overdrive. Take Advantage Live poker matches allows you to put all of your abilities to full use because it allows you to see, hear, and feel the way your opponents play the game (while possible, it is not recommended that you smell or taste your opponent). This is the main source of players frustration because, like we all know, some players are more adept in shuffling cards than in winning a dealt hand. This reaction is normal, but not all players can control it, and those who do have the upper hand in terms of winning in poker matches. You can exploit these weaknesses. You dont even have to provoke him to increase his anger. Emotional outbursts allow you more time to study your hand and more opportunities to study his behavior. Learn how he deals with a strong or a weak hand based on the way his body reacts to a dealt hand. If you have established the pattern and make considerably good choices of moves on the information that you have, you can own the player until he becomes conscious of what he has been doing, or until he ran out of chips to spend. Protect Yourself Sometimes, the emotional outburst become either disruptive or threatening steps are needed to be directed in response to it. While it is tempting to resolve the issue by shoving a closed fist into the perpetrators open mouth, it pays to let the dealer know about the commotion and seek help from him. He and the casino people can deal with unpleasant behavior better than a closed fist. For your part, remember how costly it is to tilt, so better keep your emotional bearings in check and let the casino people do its job.

Strategy with Kristy Podcast: Olivier Busquet Discusses Tough Spots
September 29 2011, Kristy Arnett Related Articles Strategy with Kristy Podcast Part 2 with Tommy Angelo Strategy with Kristy Podcast Part 1 with Tommy Angelo Strategy with Kristy Podcast Part 2 with Andrew Seidman Share It Tags Olivier Busquet, PokerNews Podcast, Poker Strategy, Cash Poker Print Olivier Busquet, also known as “livb” online, honed his poker skills by crushing online sit-n-gos. He’s also had impressive live tournament poker results, including a win in the 2009 World Poker Tour Borgata Poker Open. His live winnings exceed $2.4 million. For this edition of Strategy with Kristy, Busquet answers questions sent in by listeners, and also discusses his thought process in a few tough spots against good, loose-aggressive players. Here is a snippet from the interview: Let’s say you have queens and you raise in middle position. A loose-aggressive type of player flats you in position, and you’re 200 big blinds deep. The flop comes nine-eight-seven with a flush draw. You continuation bet [c-bet], and your opponent raises. In this spot, you’re out of position against a good player. It feels like you’re getting run over if you bet-fold an overpair. At the same time, he’s going to make the rest of the hand super difficult for you to play if you call. He will be able to play perfectly against you with hands that either have a lot of equity or a hand that has you beat. What’s your thought process here? What a lot of people have to understand is that the definition of tough spots is that there aren’t clear cut answers. So, you’re in a tough spot, and you’re not sure what to do, that’s good. That’s the right response to have. It shouldn’t be an easy answer where you just say, “Oh I have to call, I have queens.” Well, no you don’t. Folding isn’t the worst play in the world. What do you do if you have top set? Or when you flop a straight? Or when you have queen-ten with the flush draw in that spot? If he’s raising so much on that board, then when you do have big hands, you’re going to end up being able to make a lot of money. It’s fine, from a range point-of-view, to fold your marginal hands. To be honest, even though it’s an overpair, queens in that spot, on that board, is a marginal hand. It’s the type of board, depending on your opponent, that you should probably be catering your c-betting range to your opponent’s aggressiveness. You don’t want to be c-betting your entire range on that board if you think your opponent is going to raise light there. Now there are some good aggressive players who interpret that board as really scary, so they’re actually not raising your c-bet without hands that are either very strong or have a lot of equity. From that point of view, you might want to c-bet a lot on that flop. So again, it just depends on how your opponents play. If your opponent is trying to represent a number of hands because he knows he can represent tons of hands and he knows you can’t continue without a strong hand, then you might want to tighten up your c-betting range. But, I think folding in that spot is perfectly reasonable and probably the best play. If I had jacks, I’d be much more likely to call than if I had two queens. And that may be obvious, but just to be clear, you would have a gutter to a ten that would give you a straight that would beat other straights. Your opponent could have a six, so it’s not like he couldn’t have anything. It also makes it less likely that your opponent could have jack-ten. It’s just a much better hand in that spot because you can improve your hand and it takes away some of the cards from your opponent. Two queens on that board, is just not that strong. Folding is probably the best play.
