If you’re gonna bet….

Dont give up at the end!  A big mistake that happens in poker, is that you realized by the time the river comes – you may not be good.  If you realize this, the biggest mistake you can make is Not betting (unless of course, you have absolute rubbish).  Make the final bet.  You may be surprised, and at the very least, you are putting the decision on your opponent instead of allowing them to do to you.

If you intend to call…

BET!

Your best defence in poker, is to play the offence!  If you are intending to call, you might as well bet.  Put the decision on your opponents and keep them guessing!

Don’t Complain

Learning to let go is a pivital part of growth in online poker.  Steaming and Tilting are only going to make you suffer.  Its best if you can learn this as early as possible in the game, so that you dont have to break a bad habit. 

If you lose a hand, dont write into chat FFS and What a terrible beat and Of course you would win, donkey! 

Let it go.  Just let it go.  Expect the worst so that when the worst occurs, you are not blown away.

Leave when you should leave!

When everything in poker is going against you, it’s time to leave the table.  Just because you were having a good run doesnt mean that the run will continue!  When you see the cards begin to fail you, leave them behind!

Bet Bet Bet Bet Bet

“He who soars not suffers no fall.” – Zen proverb

Players tend to bet less when they have good cards and play bad cards when they should be folding.  In online poker, you should be doing the absolute opposite!  When you have good cards, BET THEM – dont think along the lines of getting callers, as you are opening up yourself to more failure.
