- While starting with a high pair, always play fast to eliminate as many players as possible.
|
| |
|
|
- Always slow play the initial draw hands. For example, 3 to a straight or a flush. You would like to keep other player in to make the pot odds.
|
| |
|
|
- Always slow play the initial trips until the fifth card. As you will need some players around with this strong starting hand.
|
| |
|
|
- As a rule, don’t start with a small pair unless they are hidden or your side cards can defeat the board.
|
| |
|
|
- Avoid playing the three to a low straight or a low flush.
|
| |
|
|
- Pay attention on the board for the crucial cards that can really lessen your chances of making a winning hand and for your opponent hands that seems dangerous. Play carefully and fold out early if it seems that you can get into the trouble.
|

|
|
- Always watch out the paired door card. If your opponents are playing a pair in their initial hands and pairs their door card, then there are 2/3 chances that their pair includes a door card. A paired door card shows strong chances that its holder has a risky set of trips. Unless you play a strong draw hand, fold as rule, if your entire hand is defeated on the board by an opponent’s up cards.

|
|
- Always try to find reasons to fold both your initial hands and those that made on the later streets. Try to find a dead card in the denomination that you require and for 2 or 3 cards in the suit that you are drawing to. Try to find a solid competition emergent for the winning hand. If you can’t find the reasons to fold, then you can keep on playing aggressively.
|
| |
|
|
- Look out the multiple “check-around” on the seventh street. Straight or flush draws usually occur on the last card and there is mostly so little in the pot that your last card pair of Aces is not a great bet.
|

|
|
- You should always keep an eye on your opponents, especially when you are not playing hands and you have enough time to watch their actions. Such as, whether they play most of the hands or fold, whether they bluff or not or whether they show any hints that reveal their cards information.
|
| |
|
|
- Use betting to bluff your opponents. As bluffing is a great way to vary your play and not be too predictable. If your bluff works, then you can even those huge pots that you don’t deserve. However, when your bluff doesn’t work, it can cost you a few chips but it will get you calls from the weaker hands down the line while you having a strong hand and want the action.
