These days there is a lot of Texas Hold'em to watch on cable TV as well as a great deal of increased new interest in the game. "Texas Hold'em", commonly shortened to just plain "Holdem", is the most popular of all poker games. It's current popularity makes it readily available to play at all levels, both in regular and online poker rooms, and the best game to study and learn to play first. You can learn a lot about how to play like a pro by paying close attention to the Holdem poker shows on TV. There are also plenty of good books on how to win at Texas Holdem at all levels and a world of helpful information on the internet. Some of the best pages on the rules and basic strategy for Texas Holdem are right here on PokerSyte.com. . . Go to the Hold'em page and check it out. The game basics are presented here in a concise and easy to remember format. The internet also has plenty to offer like this professional Texas Holdem article on helpful strategy and tips. Before you challenge the
juiced up tourists and the cigar chewing Las Vegas "rocks" at their
home field, you might do well to consider this - . . Log on to PokerStars
and practice online under casino game conditions first! . Knowing your poker
strategies is essential, but actually playing against average to very good
players is the only way to get sharp at betting your various types of hands,
compensating for certain game conditions, changing betting positions, and
such. If you want to get good at this game, then it's important to always play your best game and play to win, regardless of the betting level. I am recommending PokerStars for starting out because it offers a lot of very low limit games that are sort of hard to find on the internet. . In their "Micro" limits group, you can play at limits as low as .02/.04 (pennies). . Stay in these low limits until you usually win more than you lose, then move up to the next betting level and start over. . . Again, all the things you read and learn about the game are very important, but they don't hold a candle to time in the trenches, actually playing real money games against good players. :: |
