Learn To Look Before You Leap

Learn To Look Before You LeapHuman beings are competitive little things; it is a trait that we are educated with from a very early age. When you play poker, this behavior can be a pain in the gluteus maximus.

Your competitive nature will force you to fight and scrap for every hand. While this may be admirable, it is also going to hit your pocket hard, a point that is central to the poker tips online.

Poker does not dish out rewards for the number of hands that you win. It rewards the players who make fewer mistakes, and these players tend to choose their hands selectively.

If cash game poker is your baby, then you need to be aware that the game never ends. Sure, you go home and shut those beady eyes of yours, but when you wake back up and get into the groove, the game has not changed.

It is still poker. It may be a new day and the deck may be different, but a hand is a hand is a hand.

This understanding presents an interesting point of view. If the game is infinite why not wait and just play the hands that are profitable?

Well you can. In fact, it's a great strategy. So why don't people do this? It's because of their competitive nature. The ego. The need to please people they don't even like; the need to participate and to conform.

If you find yourself embroiled in a hand, and you are not sure where you are, then wait for another hand.

If you do not feel like you have the odds in your favour, wait for another hand. If your gut is telling you that something doesn't feel right, then wait for another hand.

Remember, the next hand is just around the corner. You can also improve your chances at the table by picking up your Betfair Bonus.
