Texas Holdem Blinds - Practicing For Sit-N-Go's
There are two basic strategies that work in Sit n Go tournaments. Tight aggressive(TAG) and loose aggressive (LAG) are strategies you must be familiar with and able to play if you want to be successful.

To determine which cards are premium starting hands, I use rankings based on percentages. The percentages found in the figures are the probability the listed hole cards would win if the hand should go to the river at a full table of nine or ten players. The probability of having Ace-Ace as the hole cards and subsequently winning increases from 31% with nine opponents to over 85% in heads-up play. The reason for this dramatic difference is that in ten-handed play, any of your nine opponents can win the hand. Taking the individual statistics of each of the nine other hands and adding them together, at best, the sum equals 69%.

In the late game, you have no choice but to bet subpar hands. The blinds won't allow you to sit and wait for good hands. In the late game, it becomes more about picking the right hands to go aggressive on.

visit here are now most likely very aware of times you have made one of these mistakes, aren't you. In fact, I'd go so far as to guess you have made at least one of these mistakes before and that caused you to lose money. You are probably realizing you have a bit of work to do on your Texas Poker strategy.

poker betting strategy Any good poker player knows that you can not win every hand. Even if you are the best at your craft, there are going to be times when you just can not win. These are the hands you need to fold and avoid further damage. The same goes for sports. No matter how much you know about the sport, there are going to be games that are just too tough to call. These are the bets you need to avoid. Sometimes the best betting decisions are the bets you do not make.

As well as forcing yourself to play aggressive by only betting or folding, it makes you think about your game a lot more. All of a sudden, you aren't going in to pots with poor cards, you aren't going to the showdown with just a top pair and you aren't making as many mistakes. This is because you will naturally play better poker because you know you are going to amp up the stakes.

One of the things you need to do to become a successful NL Hold'em poker player is learn how to bet. Sounds easy right? Everybody has heard that you should bet more than check and raise more than call, etc etc. But, too often players will bet without having a reason for betting. There should be a reaction that you hope to get from your opponent(s) by betting and your betting should convey something to them, be it true or false. If your bets do not fall into these categories, then you are making them in the wrong places for the wrong reasons.
