Do You
Make These 7 Poker Mistakes? By Rory Monahan
Here are the seven mistakes to avoid: 1. Getting Too
Emotional
2. Focusing Too Much On The Cards
3. Folding
Instead Of Checking
4. Trying Too Hard To "Fool" The
Opponent
5. Being Too Consistent
6. Not Adapting To The
Skill Level Of Others
7. Not Getting Help.
1. Getting
Too Emotional
Don't let your emotions come out at the card table!
It's easy to get "into" the game, but you've got to practice
self-control!
By staying cool, calm, and disciplined, you'll be able to
concentrate on your strategy and winning the hand.
2.
Focusing Too Much On The Cards
Remember, poker is about the PLAYERS rather than the HANDS.
Sure, what cards you have is definitely important, but the only
way to consistently WIN Texas Hold 'EM poker is if you are able
to "read" the other players at the table.
Study their habits, watch their faces, observe their
peculiarities... and THEN focus on your own hand.
3. Folding
Instead Of Checking
Don't fold if you can check! Unless it's part of some "bigger
strategy" you've got going (like the ones I talk about in my
book), then it's silly to fold a hand when you can just check
instead.
4. Trying
Too Hard To "Fool" The Opponent
Many beginners try to deliberately "fool" the other players by
"acting" a certain way. This usually backfires.
Most people are good at reading body language, and your
pretending will only give you away.
A better strategy is to let your ACTIONS fool the other players.
Keep your poker face straight and calm and let them fall for the
bait by making bets or placing action in ways that will confuse
them.
5. Being Too
Consistent
The easiest way to win easy money at the poker table is to just
study a person's habits for awhile, and then take advantage of
them hand-by-hand because they're so predictable.
Don't be this kind of sucker!
If you make the same moves and same bets at the table every time
you play, other players will pick up on it so fast that you'll
be out of chips in no time.
Be "spontaneous" in a calculated way, and be unpredictable. It
will frustrate the other players... and you'll win all their
chips.
6. Not
Adapting To The Skill Level Of Others
Everyone knows that some of poker's greats are most frequently
beat by BEGINNING players at the card table.
A lot of professionals refuse to play with "newbies" because
they know there's such a high risk of losing and being
embarrassed.
So how exactly can these beginners beat these PROS? It's
simple.
The pros are SO MUCH BETTER at poker, that they are actually
FOOLED by how BAD these new players are.
The pros are USED TO playing against other pros... which makes
it difficult for them to even "remember" how to play against
beginners.
Every card table is different. You need to learn how to adapt
your game to each different situation...
Sometimes you'll have to increase the complexity of your
strategy. Other times you'll need to "dumb down" the strategy
and only focus on the habits of the players.
7. Not
Getting Help.
You weren't BORN knowing how to play Texas Hold 'Em. You were
TAUGHT how to play.
The problem is, most players never bother to take their skills
to the NEXT LEVEL, by getting professional instruction.
In less than a few hours, you can increase your skill at this
game TREMENDOUSLY.
You can win more pots... night after night... and discover the
secrets to making tons of cash playing poker in your spare time.
I've been playing this game for over 13 years, and I can show
you the way.
But it's up to YOU to take the next step.
