Especially valuable in this software is the odds display that shows two vital things - your odds of winning the pot, and your pot odds when a bet is put to you. support@pokercalculatorreport.com (Marty Smith) Thu, 16 Nov 2006 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pokerstrategyarticles.com/articles/106/1/Your-Transformation-From-Novice-to-Expert-Texas-Hold-em-Poker-Player/Your-Transformation-From-Novice-to-Expert-Texas-Hold-em-Poker-Player.html Your transformation from novice to expert Texas Hold em Poker player begins by making sound judgments using all the information that you have at your disposal.

The big blind moves around the table, and the deal is established behind it. It is perfectly fine for a player to deal twice in a row. It is ok for a player to deal three times in a row on occasion, but it never comes to pass that someone is exempted from paying the big blind. editor@pokerstrategyarticles.com (R Mongoose) Thu, 22 Jun 2006 00:00:00 -0600 http://www.pokerstrategyarticles.com/articles/67/1/Home-Poker-Tournaments---No-Limit-BettingRaising/Home-Poker-Tournaments---No-Limit-BettingRaising.html They may not announce a raise, and then repeatedly go from their chip stack to the pot, adding chips each time. This is a string bet, and it is not allowed. Players may try to do this so that they can read their opponents as they add chips, adding until it becomes apparent they will not be called. editor@pokerstrategyarticles.com (R Mongoose) Thu, 22 Jun 2006 00:00:00 -0600 http://www.pokerstrategyarticles.com/articles/48/1/How-to-Start-Your-Own-Home-Poker-Game/How-to-Start-Your-Own-Home-Poker-Game.html Almost as important as having friends however is to make sure that what you are doing is legal. In some parts of the world gambling is illegal, even if you are doing it in the privacy of your own home so check it out before you start. You'll need to decide what game you are playing and for this I would look no further that Texas Holdem as it is the easiest game to learn and of course most people know how to play it as it has become the standard game for TV poker. editor@pokerstrategyarticles.com (Ian McIntosh) Thu, 22 Jun 2006 00:00:00 -0600 http://www.pokerstrategyarticles.com/articles/45/1/Pot-Odds---Your-Secret-Poker-Weapon/Pot-Odds---Your-Secret-Poker-Weapon.html There are two sides to this equation which I will try and explain, odds of you getting the card you need and pot odds. Firstly odds of you getting the card you need, this one is fairly easy to understand. Its best explained using the example of a flush or straight draw, so well use a straight draw to illustrate it. editor@pokerstrategyarticles.com (Ian McIntosh) Thu, 22 Jun 2006 00:00:00 -0600 http://www.pokerstrategyarticles.com/articles/37/1/Chasing-A-Flush-Online/Chasing-A-Flush-Online.html Chasing anything in Texas Holdem poker is the practice of betting to stay in a hand in the hope that you will make a better hand, even although you might have absolutely nothing at the time. So chasing a flush means betting that you will get the card or card that you need to complete your flush hand on the turn or river. You can't chase a flush before the flop because at that time you only have two cards so the flush isn't on. editor@pokerstrategyarticles.com (Ian McIntosh) Thu, 22 Jun 2006 00:00:00 -0600 http://www.pokerstrategyarticles.com/articles/32/1/Low-Limit-Poker-Strategies/Texas-Holdem-Pre-flop-Tips--A-7-Step-Guide-to-Winning-The-Big-Pots.html For example, with 10 players for example, there is a better chance of someone having a good hand, than in games with fewer players. Players need to be more conservative and less aggressive larger games as more players mean the odds of you having the best hand decrease. editor@pokerstrategyarticles.com (Sacha Tarkovsky) Thu, 22 Jun 2006 00:00:00 -0600 http://www.pokerstrategyarticles.com/articles/25/1/Texas-Holdem-Poker---Today/Texas-Holdem-Poker---Today.html To give you an idea of how many people are now playing with real-money online, have a look at PokerPulse.com.

First, find a way to pay close attention. Stay alert at all times so that you are fully aware of what your opponents are doing, as well as yourself. editor@pokerstrategyarticles.com (Keith Londrie) Wed, 21 Jun 2006 00:00:00 -0600
