Tight vs. Aggressive

I just recently wrote an article on ‘Taking a Hit’ in a poker tournament and it had to deal with taking a bad beat in a multi-table tournament. Throughout the article I mentioned building a big stack early in the tournament and there is multiple ways of doing so.

Taking a Hit

The reason for my article today stems from a tournament that I just busted out of that was the cause of a bad beat. Though I busted on a different hand the bad beat I am speaking of is the reason that my chip stack became crippled.

Rush Poker

Rush Poker was recently introduced and this type of poker could revolutionize the game. Rush Poker goes exactly how it sounds and it makes regular online poker seem like live play.

Pre-Flop Raises

Pre-flop action can come in many forms, and when you are playing No-Limit Hold’em the different types of plays increase. When playing No-Limit Hold’em players can use the minimum raise.

Vacation From Poker

A winning poker player has many arsenals in their bag when they hit the poker table. They know how to play certain situations, they know how to play certain players, and they know when it’s time to take a complete break from poker.

Mixing It Up

For poker players to have success they must be able to bet and bluff their way to victory. One of the best ways to bet and bluff your way to victory is by ‘mixing up your play’ at the poker table. Mixing it up can be a huge advantage over your opponents, because some players don’t mix up their play which results in ’predictability’.

Satellite a Trip

It’s every poker players dream to eventually go on to win a World Series of Poker bracelet. Though it is a dream for players to win the bracelet it is definitely easier said than done. Players have to travel through the large fields and overcome the bad beats along the way in order to obtain pokers most coveted prize.

Player Points

When playing poker there are many benefits that come along with playing the game online. Aside from playing in the comfort of your own home or having the opportunity of joining a tournament/cash game table at any moment of the day.

Avoid The Blowup

When playing in a long lasting multi-table tournament it’s essential that players avoid the ‘blowup’. When I say blowup I am not talking about Phil Hellmuth’s reaction after he takes a bad beat although that does classify as a blowup.

Game Selection

A player’s long term success can come from a variety of factors. Factors include how they perform at the poker table, the ability they have to get reads on their opponents, but a factor that is sometimes overlooked is ‘game selection’.
