What's the best poker tip ever?

#1 March 4th, 2020, 9:57 PM

I'll start with a classic but so hard to actually achieve consistently. "Know when to hold em and when to fold em" if only I could know 4sure.

Another one I've been contemplating lately is "Patience Grasshopper" from the classic kung fu.

I know these are generic but if anyone has any solid advice or tips in short answer form please post here

the best tip is to control your money, never play at very high levels.

#5 March 5th, 2020, 12:10 AM

protect your blinds (especially in tournaments)

always raise if you are playing from the SB, never call (first to act post flop, gotta be the aggressor pre and post)

#6 March 5th, 2020, 12:16 AM

Don't over play your hand pre or post flop!

Play according to your bank, do not get into levels that are not for your bank or you will be left with nothing soon. What's the best poker tip ever?

When I was lamenting my recent bad fortune at my local poker room, the tournament director told me - "you just have to make better decisions".

While this is very unspecific, it is the essence of playing poker. There are a million pieces to this advice, but to me, it was what I needed to hear at the time. There are a bunch of things we can't control, but our decisions are completely in our control.

Good luck and god bless.

Knowing when is certainly critical but another thought I received recently in a live tournament. I was the chip leader at the final table by a lot, and during a break when all others had gone for a drink the dealer who was a seasoned professional suggested to me that since I had the bulk of the chips I shouldn't get involved in a lot of hands, basically his advice let the smaller chip stacks chase you, you don't have to feed them. Let them destroy each other....and yes this advise has worked for me countless times, online and live... What's the best poker tip ever?

Really understand pre flop ranges and youll have such a greater understanding postflop What's the best poker tip ever?

#24 March 7th, 2020, 8:08 PM

Here is one which, compared to many others, applies to all variants of the game.

Follow bankroll management.

You can be bad at any other aspect of the game, but nothing will damage you as hard as not following a proper well planned bankroll management.

#25 March 8th, 2020, 8:37 AM

Call least, raise more, and fold most.

#26 March 9th, 2020, 10:30 AM

You are on the right track!

Play less hands.

Virtually every top pro let alone every poker book will recommend playing fewer hands and make sure those are premium ones. There are endless discussions regarding keeping a certain VPIP rate no matter...but...being TAG player to my core, I find increasing the pots I get into by broadening my range generally a recipe for leaking chips if not a disaster.

If you take the time to study high level tourney streams, some pros are naturally inclined to enter a lot of pots but others are not. Rather than playing 20% + some pros play in the very low teens. It all depends on the cards they are being dealt - they adjust when receiving a string of mediocre hands and do not force the issue.

Im playing always with my feelings..
Sometimes i do it good, call good...

from 100k its easy to get 0 chips..
and you must always thinking..

Avoid spewing and, for the most part, triple barrel bluffs are spewing

#29 March 24th, 2020, 4:42 AM

Don't play too many tables.

You need experience to know when to call,when to raise,when to fold.
Then you need patience,just calm down relax,andplay your game.
