How Do I Become A Better Poker Player?

Keith-Thompson, 2007-03-27 13:45:41
I play online ( fake and real money). I just started playing real money online 2 days ago. I am playing the penny tables and i played a s&go tourney the other day. I placed 8th in the tourney (out of 18). I really want to become a better player. Any tips? Any books to read? Any general recommendations for a beginning poker player?Thanks everyone for the feedback, i am sure it will help me out.

I have been playing for about 6 months now and playing the free sites will help you get the game mechanics down. Betting amounts, styles of play, reading other players are just a few of the things you can pick up. Try cardschat.com for some tips and advice from other poker players to help your game.

Anyway, back to your question play blackjack online for free. I've played poker for 4 years. Here is my advice. First, don't play the free games. You learn nothing at these online tables other than how the mechanics of the game works. Examples: blinds, betting, raising, etc... As for strategy, people playing for free will chase cards trying to catch flushes, straights, or pairs. So you really dont learn a thing. Deposit some real money on a reputable site ( Ful-Tilt, Ultimate Bet) and then play in some small

or sit&gos. The play here is loose as well, and you will get some bad players chasing, but not as bad as in a free roll. Once you start feeling a little better about your game, steadily move up. Another issue for new players is patience. Here is a great way to handle this problem. Buy in to a or multi-table tourney. You can expect to be play against anywhere from 150 to 500 other players. Patience is the only way to do well in these. My last bit of advice is to go out or look on Ebay for Howard Ledderers DVD. It is geared toward beginners and even comes with a cheat sheet for what hands to play from the various positions when you are new. Hope this helps play blackjack online for free free blackjack play.

- As far as books go, check out David Sklansky's The Theory of Poker.
- It covers a lot of ground and has been read by lots of those that consider themselves "good" players.
- The best way to improve is simply play...
- and pay attention.
- Learn from your mistakes...
- don't keep making them.
- Sounds simple...
- but you see people do the same dumb things over and over again.
- And learn from watching how every one else plays.
- Live play is really preferable when you're trying to improve.
- You can watch what the "good" players at your table do, and see what works for them and what you like.
- Then incorporate it into your game.
- And a great way...
- is discuss situations and past hands with others who play a lot...
- and ask them how they would have played a hand or what other ways of handling a situation would have been.
- I would suggest playing live games as much as possible over online to really learn the most the fastest.

  - it has tons of great tips and step by step instructions on how to improve your poker game.

Try fulltiltpoker.net with poker code: REALPOKER and get a bonus. See you there. David Sklansky and Dan Harrington have really good books especially Harrington but start with the first then move on.
