Free Online Poker Tips From a Successful Beginner
April 5, 2010 by drewloupsen · Leave a Comment
I never thought I had a chance of winning much being such a novice to the free online poker world. However, just over seven days since my last blog I already feel like my experiences have made me a better poker player. In a word my biggest weapon is patience. It seems bizarre to me the amount of opponents who go all in on their 1st hand and go down.
This obviously sends all but one player to an early grave. My recommendations are to stay safe until the final table, which I like to play more aggressively. I fold folded a lot of good hands early in the game and never regretted it because whatever happened I was still in the game.
The best free roll final position I made was forth with one hundred and fifty competing- in all honesty I was ecstatic with this, especially being a novice. From this I started to believe the chances of getting a pay out would not be as hard as first imagined especially when so many people go all in.
A good tip I continually use is the step up method. The highest I have won in a single hand is seventy five dollars- FreeD in the same hand and I managed to get my 1st sr8 flush smashing a very sure ace high flush which had the player go all in.
Mathematics I have found to be incredibly important. Knowing the chances of a flush by the river from two suited cards or the chances of winning from a certain pocket pair. Wising up on your odds will help greatly.
I have found the community at my free online poker site incredibly friendly and I always enjoy each game, whether I win or lose.
I know that I will continue to play free poker online for a long time to come and I look forward to perfecting my game as time goes on.
