Online Poker has been groing in leaps and bounds in the past 5
years. The statistics prove it: The online Poker Industry is
thought to be worth 5billion dollars a year at the moment with
as much as 100,000 players joining online poker rooms each
month! With this many players there is a lot of tough
competition out there amongst players. There will always be
someone out there that is better than you. That is why it is
imperative that you learn how to get to their level.
So you might be a begginer, or a seasoned player, but
nevertheless you need to have whatever edge you can get. Poker
is a long term game, you want to have an edge over your
opponents in the long run. It is all about making less mistakes
than your opponents. The less mistakes you make then
statistically the more you will win!
So how do you go about educating yourself?
Well first off you obviously need to know the rules back to
front. This is obvious. For example when playing Omaha you must
remember that you must use two cards out of the four hole cards
you are holding.
Know your statistics: Yes you may think this is a pain to learn.
But the better you learn them, then the bigger advantage you
will have over your opponent. Even if it is a 1% difference,
over $1000 in bets this makes you $10! (and it is not hard to
make $1000 worth of bets, believe me).
Use the FREE resources available to you. There are hundreds of
sites that provide online poker schools. Not all of them are as
good as each other but there is a huge ammount of value in them.
Read the articles that are up. Find out about mistakes that
other people have made, so as to not make those mistakes
yourself.
Talk to your friends about your plays. Constant analysis of your
poker plays is one of the best ways to educate yourself. Always
ask yourself, did I make the right move, or did I get lucky?
Books: You go to almost any library nowadays and you can find a
huge source of free information. My local library has most major
poker book titles. It is FREE!
So those are the main ways to go about learning more in poker.
Why learn? To get an advantage over your opponents! Does it cost
you anything? Absolutely not, you just need to seek out the
information and it is all there!
Remember, be critical of your poker. Do not think you are the
best because you have had a good run for a few days. Always
strive to improve your game, even if it is just by 1%, in the
long run you will be making/saving thousands!
