Poker School - Poker Strategy School introduction and the basics of why online poker is so popular.
Section II - Online Poker Strategy School
Welcome to section II of the internet poker strategy school. Section II will introduce you to the differences between playing online poker and playing
poker for real. By the end of this section, you should have an understanding of the potential winnings or losses possible when playing poker online,
and how bluffing changes when it comes to internet poker.
The difference between playing online and playing for real.
Firstly, playing online is playing for real. Many poker rooms have made and will continue to make big money out of punters because most people don’t see
that they’re losing real money. Just because it’s online doesn’t mean it’s not real. In fact, the ease with which you can ‘withdraw’ money to play at the
tables is so easy that you should probably treat playing online as though it is more real.
Strategically speaking, online poker is very different to playing in a real poker tournament and the first thing you should remember is to virtually
forget the notion of bluffing. Poker is traditionally thought of as being a game of skill because you can bluff and you can call bluffs. Seeing and acting
on bluffs is a highly skilful and courageous lesson you need to learn before you play in a real life poker game.
You will need to bluff on occasion, but your bluffs should be small and even then you should only be bluffing with a half decent hand. An unsuited 2 and
7 may win you the pot as last player standing when you play at the casino, but the very frightening reality of online poker is that your bluff will get
called much more often. Tighten your game until it’s so tight that you’re only playing suited picture cards and you won’t go far wrong.
This concludes section II of the online poker strategy school. In section III you can look forward to learning a very big and important strategy in
poker we like to call the reverse bluff. Would you like to learn more? Don’t stop now because you’re on your way to graduating from the online poker
strategy school.

How to Win at Poker (NEW!) - Too many beginners at poker think of the nuts and bolts of the game, such as which hand beats another hand or is a low-ranking straight or pair worth achieving. If you are set on playing poker, especially with money involved, you should already know all about winning hand combinations.

3 Card Poker Strategy - Like poker but do not want to spend the time learning everything about all those five- or seven-card stud or draw games?

Texas Holdem Poker Strategies - Texas Hold’em might seem like an easy game, but plenty of strategy and thought must go into executing a winning hand. It’s OK to be daring at the poker table with a bluff, if you are playing five- or seven-card draw with your cards covered. The same can not be said for Texas Hold’em, considering five cards are showing from the three-card Flop, and two from the Turn and River (the last two dealt). If you call to the end, consider that 71 percent of your hand (five out of seven cards) are showing. Why even try to bluff? To go that far with a growing pot, you must feel confident you have a winning hand. Trickery is out of the question with the amount you will be betting at that point. The Flop (three cards shown face up after the opening round of two cards are dealt face down) is when the major decisions must be made...
Online Poker Room Strategy - In this day when gambling opportunities are branching beyond the casinos at an extreme rate, online poker has become one of the most popular interactive entertainment forms on the Internet. An August article in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution cites research from Christiansen Capital Advisers (a Maine-based consulting firm) that indicates revenue from online gambling will increase from $12 billion this year to $24.5 billion in 2010. Imagine these numbers if the production of online gambling sites was legal in the United States. The popularity of online poker, sparked by live television shows, creates the desire among participants to know all the details and strategies of each game. Texas Hold’em and 5-Card Stud are the most popular poker games available online in part because of their simplicity. The following strategies must be followed to become a consistent winner...
