Quick Strategies

April 18, 2009

There is nothing wrong when playing poker online of taking advantage of a hit and run opportunity. There may be times you find yourself at a table that is short handed and you find yourself alone with one or two easily players that can be easily dominated. In this situation, hit, hit and hit. Get those chips in. But don’t waste time as you probably won’t stay shorthanded for long and the table will soon fill back up again. When it does, run. Looking in the lobby you will see there is always another hit and run opportunity waiting to happen.

It is also good to remember that if you are sitting at a poker table and hit a run of bad hands, then it is perfectly acceptable to move tables. Don’t dwell on the fact you didn’t win any money, instead just get onto a different table.

That’s part of the bonuses of poker online, the ability to switch tables and move about as you wish.

Also if you joined a new poker table and realise you are the wrong side of a strong poker player, again get up and move. Choice is yours if you go back to the same table but in a better position or to a completely new table. The lobby is there for you to take advantage of.

Once you become accustomed to its set up and layout, you will soon find yourself spotting double dippers. These are poker players who play more than one table at a time. The beauty of finding a double dipper is that they most likely not giving the game their full attention. Also the action on one table will affect how they player on the other table they are playing. Watch them play on both tables. Poker sites allow you to open up more than one table so you can easily watch how they are playing on the two tables. If you see them going after a big pot on one table, attack their blinds on the other table. They are more likely to be fixed on the big pot then the blinds.

 Another one of the bonuses of playing poker online is that you get to choose who you show your cards too. There is no need to give information away for free so always make sure the settings are set as you want them before you start a game. This was you won’t show your cards to your opponents without good cause. Only show your cards to reinforce others mistakes or for reasons of deception. Don’t show your cards to boost your ego or because you don’t know enough not to.

And if they ever ask you in the chat box – lie.
