1. Get the best starting cards

Getting good starting cards in Texas Hold'em games such as AA, KK, QQ, AK, and JJ will naturally give you an advantage. However, the key is how to deal with these cards in the future, especially when the player plays well, the bonus will also be much higher.

AA or KK

Players with AA or KK cards in their hands should generally invest all their chips before flop, because letting opponents place the biggest bet before flop can ensure that the players in the advantage have the greatest interests.

On the contrary, if the player holds AA or KK trump card, the bet amount is very small, or wants to call to guide the opponent to misunderstand your trump card, it will be a more risky move. After the flop, the opponent will start to have many choices, and there will be unexpected developments when there are more people on the table. Therefore, in this case, it is the best choice to bet all before the flop.

Of course, it is not guaranteed that players will win by holding AA or KK cards before flops, especially when the opponent is grouped with a flush or straight, or when the pair of K obtained by the player is compared by the pair of A formed by the opponent.

AK

AK is the fourth largest starting hand after AA, KK, and QQ. But if the player fails to get another A or K on the flop, it can only be said to have a trump card with A. However, after calculation, the probability of getting A or K in the flop group is 30%, which means that the best way to play such a trump card is to raise before the flop.

But if the opponent decides to bet all in, players holding AK trump card are better to block the card. Assuming the opponent's trump card is a pair of A or K, then AK is under control.

QQ or JJ

Many newbies are not happy to get trump cards like a pair of Q or a pair of J. They usually regard these cards before the flop as bad cards, but when A or K appears, they start to regret it. However, the problem is that players usually treat them as AA/KK when they get QQ/JJ. Depending on different circumstances, although this type of trump cards is not recommended to be in full before the flop, they are still a good starting card.

2. Patience

The lower the number of hands you play, the higher the percentage of your winnings. In addition to the particularly exciting games you see on TV broadcasts, players usually block most of their hands. Don't waste chips because they can't get good cards. The purpose of playing poker is to increase the amount of money you can't play.Chips instead of giving them to others.

3. Pay attention to the basic principles

During the game, whether you seal the card or not, pay attention to every move on the table. Pay attention to the card face and everyone's actions. If you fight with experienced players, pay attention to their body language, listen to what they say, and silently record the rules of their betting in your heart. After opening the card, pay attention to their trump card. This is the key to helping yourself understand the opponent's strategy: what is their starting hand and how they deal with it.

4. Learn when to block the card

Although you have already placed a bet, you should pay attention to when to block the card is the best choice. When your opponent wants you to make a big call, as long as you feel that you are under control, choose to block the card. Leave the bullets until necessary.

5. Pay attention to your position at all times

Most players will say that position determines everything. Often, players will say “My position is better than you” or “My position is bad”. In poker games, the position you sit can determine whether the cards you hold in your hand are at an advantage or disadvantage. Newbie must know the following four positions.

Button Position

The

Button position is the position that determines the other position on the table. This is also the best position, because the player sitting here is the last move. In other words, the player in this position can observe everyone's actions before it is his turn to act. The player can still steal blindness in this position.

Blind Position

Blind bets refer to bets that players forcefully make in poker games. It is divided into two types: small blind and large blind. In these positions, the player is the last two positions to act before the flop, but also the first position to act after the flop. Therefore, if a novice decides to continue playing cards at this position, be especially careful.

Mulcan position

The muzzle position is the position after the big blind. This position is one of the most difficult positions to control, because the player will be the first person to act after getting the trump card. Most players only have two actions: raise and block the card at this position.

Termination Position

The end position is the right position of the deal/button position. This is the second best position on the poker table. Players at this position can even steal the advantage of the final action from the deal/button position by raising. If the player in the deal/button position blocks the card, the player in the terminating position can also steal blindness.

6. Search for clues

The most effective way is to concentrate on observing. In poker games, clues refer to the player's actions, or behavior patterns that reveal the cards in his hand or actions that will be taken next. Newbie or inexperienced players often reveal flaws when they accidentally; while experienced players avoidFor avoiding flaws, some people wear sunglasses or other equipment like hats to achieve the purpose of covering up movements and facial expressions. In addition, many players have also developed a unique skill, revealing fake clues from time to time to deceive their opponents' trust.

The following are some common clues, players can make some references:

Betting Action

Betting as the most accurate card route allows players to see the opponent's card playing style most clearly. For example, a player will check the cards whenever he or she forms the best combination of a certain card type, or will block the cards when he or she is raised.

Twist hands

Many players cannot control their hands shaking, and inevitably reveal flaws. Hand shaking is usually caused by tension, the kind of tension that usually occurs when they get a good card.

Confirm the trump card again on flop

People usually confirm their trump card again after the first 3 bills appear. This action is to make sure that your trump card and the cards you flip out have formed a good card.

Attack your cards and pay attention to the chips

Usually, players are looking at their trump card and paying attention to their chips immediately, which means that their cards are not bad and they are planning to make a bet.

Barrely call

Players take time to consider before making moves and can represent two things: (1) Whether the cards you are grouped are indeed worth calling, or (2) make the opponent misunderstand that their hands are weak, but in fact they are very strong.

Relax your body after dealing the license

Players leaned relaxedly on the back of the chair, which seemed very relaxed, especially after they had seen their trump card, which usually represented their cards so careless and had little interest in continuing to play.

Save your breath

If the opponent holds his breath while betting, it is very likely to be a bluff.

Concentrate

The player is very focused on his hand, usually means he will continue to play this hand.

Body posture/attitude

Often the cards in the player's hands show different postures when they are strong and weak. When a player's shoulders are weak and sagging, it may mean that their opponent's trump card has lost confidence; if the player sits very well, it means that his card is very good.

Strong means weak card

Players will have a rebellious mentality when releasing clues: strong outside and weak inside / weak outside and strong inside - Players want to use this method to stop drinking opponents and achieve results that are beneficial to themselves.

7. Learn when to bluff

Newcomers have misunderstandings about poker and think that this is a bluff game. Although bluffs can help players win money, it requires a lot of skills, courage and intuition. The following is the author's experience:

Bluff only when the cards that are still in the draw stage and the cards to be grouped are very strong.Only when your opponent believes that you have already formed a good hand, such as having already obtained a straight hand or a flush.

Bluffing is only done after you have a better understanding of your opponent's habits, which can reduce the chance of showing a flaw. If you encounter players who are used to raising all the way even if your cards are not good, then bluffing is just a waste of time.

Only select high-limit table bluffs. When the amount you bet is large, the chance of calling is also high. Bluffing on a high-limit or even unlimited poker table has a higher chance of success.

Only select bluffs at the back position. A good time to bluff is when the opponent on the table has passed the card, followed the card, and after the card is blocked, because the bluff is not effective when the other person's hand cannot be observed in the front position.

Don't bluff at any time. Because doing this often will make your opponent easily discover your purpose. A good bluffing strategy should make your opponent less noticeable and allow them to continue guessing.

8. Avoid making it easy for others to understand you

Be cautious at the beginning, so it is a good idea to continue playing or raise bets only when you get good cards. But over time, other players will understand your habits and will block the card at this time. Even if you win, you won't win much. By the same token, avoid habitually blocking cards when others raise or raise, and spend some time making the game more interesting, such as occasionally bluffing, and letting go of the bet when you get a bad hand in a good position, and you will find that you have quietly advanced.

9. Practice

Learn from your mistakes. Remember, your purpose is to accumulate chips, and every MBP poker player knows that it is the happiest to be able to leave with the chips you win.
