Position Play

The beauty and appeal of Texas Holdem resides in the many facets of the game… it’s not just your hand versus that of your opponent but rather a multitude of variables that will change the way you play your hands. Some of these include chip count, number of players in the hand, size of the pot, attitudes of your opponents and also your position at the table in relation to your opponent(s). Position play is paramount to playing successful poker. Your position at the table can at times be more powerful than the value of your hand. While it may...

Cashing Out from an Online Poker Room

After you’ve learned enough about poker to be able to make a little profit the next thing you have to do is be able to get your money off of the site. Most players never get that far. They just deposit and deposit but the good players win and need to get their money off of the site. Probably the easiest method to get money off of an online poker site is via EFT (electronic funds transfer). However this option is not available to everyone. It’s usually not available to US players or players who are citizens of countries where...

Caribbean Stud Poker Crash Course

I thought I would sit down and write a quick course to playing Caribbean Stud online poker. Caribbean Stud Poker is an easy game to learn. It´s what some of us in the gambling world would call a “Carnival Game”, because the house has a sizable advantage (over 5%). However, the game is fun to play and it can be a great social event if you are playing at a traditional brick and mortar casino. I have taught others to play Caribbean Stud Poker in minutes – so lets get to it. The Caribbean Stud Poker Scene The first thing...

Mobile Fun Is in Season – Play Fast Fold’Em On Mobiles and Tablets

Playing at an online casino is a pretty straightforward thing if all we’re really talking about is playing on your laptop. But if you’re trying to do more than just the laptop game, then you need to dig a little deeper. For example, what if you wanted to play on mobiles and tablets instead of having to carry your laptop around? It’s really a marker of how far our society has come in terms of being on the go. There used to be a time where you would just stay in one place, and entertain yourself at your home or...

Cracking the Multi-Table Tournament Code

Look, we’ll be honest: multi-tables are a little new for us. We’re mostly SNG players, single player SNG to be honest with you. But we kept getting requests for help with MTT’s, so we figured that we’d do our best and play a few MTT’s. First off, we can see why you like it. It’s a new challenge to keep up with so many different players. The action tends to be pretty fierce, and there’s always someone busting out while someone else is moving up. This is pretty neat, if we say so ourselves. Here’s how to make MTT’s a...

A Spring Refresher on Dealing with Bad Poker Players

Can we rant for a second before teaching you something else? Good, thank you. We wanted to rant about all of the players that are whining about the weaker players underneath them. Never mind the fact that we all started as fish — the reality is that fish can be profitable. We can hunt fish. We can profit from fishy players. As fishy players grow in their skills, they will turn around and hunt their former fishy brethren. Cue the “Circle of Life” song, because that’s what this is. As you get better at online poker, you’re going to be...
