Blinds in Poker
In position 1 - small blind - (SB), and position 2 - big blind (BB), you already have your money in on the hand. The only advantage you get in the blinds is that pre-flop, you get to bet last. After that, it’s a terrible place to be.
Pocket Kings Strategy
Our starting Hand is pocket Kings - KK - a very good hand, although it must be played correctly, as theese hands bring us income in cash game and a lot of chips in tournaments. Playing two kings is almost the same as game with two aces, but there are some differences.
Low Pairs
Have you ever seen where everyone is just posting the big blind, with few raisers,and all of a sudden, someone pushes their stack of 700 all-in? Then everyone folds in turn. You make some comment to yourself like, “What an idiot. I hope someone calls him next time and gets him out.”
Flop Play
So finally we see the flop (3 cards dealt by the dealer). We have got only two questions for the Flop Play:
- Has the flop strengthen our had?
- Has the flop strengthen the position of our opponents?
As for your hand, you know the answer, as to opponents hands, then we can only guess.
Preflop Hands
Playable preflop hands (your first two cards) depend on your position at the table and we will talk about a standard table of 10 players. Let's divide theese players into several groups:
Online Poker Bad Beat
In this article i would like to speak about online poker bad beats, they happen, some players see them more often than other, what to do in order to minimize them?
Online bad beats are going to happen. The key is not to play on tilt after they do. If you are lucky enough to suffer a bad beat and still have chips left over, consider yourself blessed. Usually, one bad beat begets another, and soon you are out of chips and out of the game.
Playing at the Final Table 2
This is all theoretical, but you will notice it to be true the more you play. Once the action gets down to 4 people, there is usually less than one good hand, so if you do get a good hand, you have to feel you are in the lead.
Playing at the Final Table
If you’ve played correctly, played good hands, and not taken any bad beats, you will get down to the end game. The Final Table Play is a totally different game.
I consider the end game any time you are down to 4 or 5 players and the BB is 100 or higher. There are very specific rules to play by in the “short-handed” game, and I am going to tell you how to play, so that you can win, more often than not.
Steal the Blinds!
