Not folding

The biggest mistake I see is not folding when they pretty much know they didn't win the hand.

when u a newbie, the main reason u dont get into the money is playing too risky and not to know when to fold.

at least that was my main reason for not geting any winnings in the beginning.

another thing to look at is newbies can get far but they really do NOT have much of a clue of when they have to or should be making a move that puts them from 80th say to 20th and have enough blinds to get into the deeper money.... this takes playing enough hands to get a feel when it is truly go time unless you want a min cash

You open too many hands for which you have to pay , the game is not on the Bank's chances

When I started playing, I tried to collect a straight or flush combination even by allin, which is unacceptable on cash tables. I watched a lot of flops and played with small cards. The biggest mistake is not to comply with the bankroll rule.

At the beginning we all do one mistake. Whenever we hit the flop we get excited thinking that we won the hand. But with experience we understand that poker is a game of seven cards and anything could happen at turn and river. And things could lead you to losses if you can't predict the things which might go against you.

The first mistake is usually done before sitting at the table.

And it comes from bankroll management.

Only through a reasonable bankroll management you can make profit in the long run.

Number one mistake is over valuing your hand.

Calling away your chips with top pair on a strighty/flushy board, or chasing the straight without the correct value. This is re-enforced when they hit the straight and win the hand, they think they made a great play.

The most common mistake, beginners make, is being to focused on making hands and winning pots rather than winning money. Its kind of human nature really. On the surface poker is about making hands, so the instinct is to try to make a hand. This result in playing to many hands, not betting or raising enough, and checking and calling to much. These players are often referred to as "fish" by more advanced players, or sometimes even "whales".

Edited your post a bit here ^


Limping & calling far too many hands preflop... in hopes of making a hand... with hopes of getting paid off on a large river bet when you do hit.

Beginner's mistake

Though it's the purpose to make the role stronger than an enemy, it's fancied that it can't win if it isn't the excessively strong role.

Such person often comes across it, too.
