Here is a GREAT online poker secret that I learned (and use frequently now) from Phil Gordon:

Take a shot at stealing the blinds the last hand before the break, no matter what your position is.  Many poker players will fold hands they would normally call with because they are either tired, need to use the bathroom, want to talk about their bad beats etc.

Poker is a game of constant education.  Once you stop educating, you start to lose your edge.  There are so many brilliant online poker players out there for you to learn from and there are many resources out there for you to gain their knowledge.

Being in position gives you some great advantages in online poker:

1. You get the opportunity to see what all of your opponents do before you decide if you will commit chips to the pot.
2. You have the last chance to bluff
3. You can take advantage of your opponents missing the flop, even if they have a better starting hand.
4. Its easier to extract the most money possible from other poker players.

Bad poker players generally make the same mistakes over and over again.  Pay attention to what these mistakes are, as they are pivital in your winning poker strategy.

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
