First lesson: to know his opponents!


After being an idea about the Texas Hold'em game with virtual money, it came time to move on to the next step and play for real money. This is the only way to see the difference between playing with a real set and when the money is a question really virtual. The first thing to observe is that all players will have a different style of play, wiser, wiser ..

For beginners, we recommend, in general, playing Sit and Go tournaments, since you can get, even with low amounts, enough chips to play more hands as possible and gain more experience. A Texas Hold'em No Limit, the differences between players are great: you can see the beginners but also experienced players. There is also the "maniacs" who are the fools and who spared no effort even if it leads to ruin. On the other hand, there are many wise men who keep their money and instead adopt a passive strategy game. Besides, most try to combine the styles of play in hopes of finding the winning strategy. The important thing is to follow in his adversaries and to adapt their ways of play Here's a little guide will help you know who you're dealing with:

The winner asset: it is the best attitude, which should be covered by any player. This is the type of player who goes on a few hands, but that it takes a strong and decisive strategy. Crafty and difficult to read, so we can not realize whether or not a good hand, he constantly changes his game strategies depending on the opponent. When you encounter such a player, try not to play against him, unless you have very strong cards.

The loser aggressive is the maniac for which action is most important. How can you recognize? He put large amounts and bluffing in most of the time. This is the type of player we see in movies .. It is, perhaps, drunk or he only plays for entertainment. Whatever the truth, one thing is certain: the maniac is a threat to your money, but it is also true that his money is even more danger. Expect it to turn: the right time when he is bluffing and you have a high card.

The loser liabilities: paying done just what he should do, when he pays a small card and when the high cards, it does little for raises. The reason for the game remains unknown, but when we encounter such a player, you can be happy, since it is the lowest. Everything you need to do to take his money playing poker endurance: strength when you have strong hands and act when stimulus. It is not worth the trouble to him adopt strategies developed.

Overcoming the passive is the cornerstone of the party. He only played a few hands and it is easy to read. Bluff if you suppose it has maps and act weak when stimulus.

Besides the psychological factor, it must also know a little math to estimate continuously the chances of winning. Professionals also use the emotional factor, when developing strategies to intimidate the opponent. With all this, poker is perhaps the finest game of mind, since in addition to intelligence, it requires cunning and wisdom.
