  • Value Betting When Faced With A Scare Card
    By: Roger Fischel | - Yesterday I discussed general principles of value betting. I explored an example with a relatively safe board. No obvious straight draws and only two cards of the same suit so no flush was possible. In many situations when you hold marginal hands against a loose opponent you won't be so lucky. A scare card appears that may help your opponent outdraw your hand. Many times there will be potential straights or flushes or even a potential straight flush on the board. The board may pair ...

  • Absorbing The Punch
    By: Roger Fischel | - In every poker player's life it will seem as though every hand you hold is outdrawn, often by an inferior hand to yours. It will seem like every river card seems to be the miracle card that will turn your 48:1 favorite into a 100% loser. It will appear to you that your opponents can see your hole cards, that the game is fixed, that the dealer is favoring some players and not others, especially finding you in disfavor. It will seem like all of this and more. While this is going on it c ...

  • Playing With Big Pairs
    By: Roger Fischel | - You look down at a big pair, aces, kings or queens if you are a semi-tight, aggressive player. Jacks are added to the mix if your style is semi-loose, aggressive. Hooray, you have a premium starting hand. That's the good news! You are likely the best hand but you aren't likely to win a huge pot. Not only that but they are often crushed by a baby pair that hits a set on the flop and may spell disaster for a weaker player unable to make a big laydown. Unless the big pair improves on ...

  • The Gordon Pair Principle Applied
    By: Roger Fischel | - What is the likelihood that when you have a pocket pair your opponent has a higher pair? Let's say, for example, you hold JJ in the cutoff and the player to your immediate right, a loose-aggressive player, shoves. You have him covered. Your jacks are good against any hand other than QQ, KK or AA. Your opponent's range includes pairs as small as 66, AK, AQ, AJ, AT and suited connectors TJ or larger. What do you do? Well, don't fret. Phil Gordon provides us with an answer, the Gordon ...

  • Post-flop Play: Decisions, Decisions
    By: Roger Fischel | - You decided that your hand pre-flop was playable and you entered the hand in late position. Pre-flop decisions are based on hand strength, position relative to the button, your own range of hands, what you know about your opponents' hand selection and stack size, both yours and your opponents. Pre-flop decisions are more or less mechanical in the sense that you have very little information from which to proceed. All that you know absolutely is the relative strength of your hand playing ...

  • Analyzing The Flop
    By: Roger Fischel | - Perhaps the most difficult decision you must make while playing Texas Hold'em is whether or not to bet or call a bet in front of you on the flop. When you miss the flop completely the decision to muck is easy. There are times, however, when the decision is borderline and you must analyze the strength of your hand relative to the board texture and to the likely range of hands your opponents are likely to hold. If you only play your cards you are likely to miss something that leads to you ...

  • Loose, Tight Or In-between
    By: Roger Fischel | - How you play poker has a significant impact on how others play against you. In a rather famous quote, Doyle Brunson said, "If you want action you have to give action." If the goal of playing poker is to earn a profit then you must create a strategy that invites action yet still allows you to bluff from time to time. Tight players are more likely to be bluffed but are more likely to be able to bluff while loose players are more likely win small pots with loose raises while almost never being b ...

  • Extracting Value With Strong Hands
    By: Roger Fischel | - Profitable poker is enhanced when you are able to extract maximum value with strong hands. Often when you hold a strong hand and you hit the flop a strong bet on the flop induces nothing but folds and you win a very small pot. While it is absolutely true that any pot won, big or small, is nothing to sneeze at, it is far more satisfying to get value from your big hands. With strong hands, however, we cannot be blinded by the possibility that we are second best. When involved in a hand when we ...

  • Limit Hold'em: Solid, Tough, Fun
    By: Roger Fischel | - Before the poker boom began around 2004, limit hold'em was often the game of choice for most players. Limit hold'em is a complex game, offering opportunity for steady profit with solid play. Limit hold'em requires patience, self-discipline and solid judgment at the poker table. It is a far less volatile game than its currently more popular no-limit version which is quite good for bankroll management. When I play, I often look for a limit game before I commit to a no-limit table especially wh ...

  • Learning To Play Within Yourself
    By: Roger Fischel | - Playing from within is an idea that encompasses a number of concepts. When playing you must stay focused and play in the moment. You must create a bankroll management plan that keeps you playing at the games you are able to beat. You must observe your opponents and yourself constantly looking for weaknesses in your opponents' game and your own game. You must be willing to adjust to changing circumstances. You must know when to get up from the table. Learning to master these skills will lea ...

  • Planning To Play Or Structuring A Game Plan
    By: Roger Fischel | - I have talked about how to play against certain opponents, about the need to be observant at the table, and a bit about when to shift gears when your own play becomes far too predictable. Let's get just a bit more sophisticated and look at specific weaknesses as you prepare to crush any table you are playing at. Structuring your game plan for playing poker is much like a pitcher and catcher along with their pitching coach structuring their approach to each batter they will face in a baseball ga ...

  • Identifying Betting Patterns Leads To Profitable Play
    By: Roger Fischel | - When playing poker, either online or in a live poker room, one of the keys to profitable play is careful observation of your opponents. Online play is often aided by third party software providing heads up display or HUD but even when using HUD it doesn't mean you shouldn't pay careful attention to your opponent's betting habits and patterns. In a live poker room there is simply no substitute for careful and concentrated observation of betting patterns at the table. They are the most importan ...

  • To Show Or Not To Show, That Is The Question
    By: Roger Fischel | - With apologies to William Shakespeare, the issue of showing one's cards upon the completion of a hand is always a difficult question. As a general rule, I almost, hardly ever show my cards after a hand is completed unless, of course, it is on a showdown and I am called and, therefore, forced to show. Because poker is a game played with incomplete information, every time I show my cards to an opponent or the entire table when I do not have to do so, I give away valuable information about my gam ...

  • Making Decisions With Incomplete Information
    By: Roger Fischel | - David Sklansky defines mistakes made in playing poker in a simple, easily understood manner. He asks the question, "Would you play your hand differently if you knew the cards held by your opponent?" If your response to this question is yes, then you have made a mistake. If your answer is no then you played correctly. The overarching fact inferred in this definition is that poker is a game played with incomplete (not insufficient) information. Decisions must be made without complete knowledg ...

  • Sitting In The Texas Hold Em Blind
    By: J.P. Jones | - The blinds in Texas Hold Em are the two positions in which the player is forced to contribute, or ante up, to the beginning of the pot. This is set up to prevent people from routinely folding every hand without ever hazarding a bet. They"re designated the Big Blind and the Small Blind.

    When you contribute to the Blind, that amount is deducted from the ...
