When it’s your turn to bet, do not make impulse decisions.  Take your time, and think about what you are doing.  Phil Gordon has a great script that he runs through his head:

1. How are my opponents playing?
2. What are some of the hands my opponents are likely to hold?
3. What do my opponents think I have?
4. Am I in good position or bad position?

Think about these factors before you make your move.

I am going to spend the next group of posts, talking about Phil Gordon and his Little Green Book, which I believe to be one of the greatest Beginner/Novice poker books available on the shelves.  Not only is it an easy read, but it gives poker players the basic tools to move forward in their poker game and learn how to be a Winning Poker Player.

“Winning poker is not about winning money.  Nor is it about reading tells or being the best bluffer.  It’s not about winning the most pots.  Winning poker is about making the correct decisions” – Phil Gordon
