New table - do you take time to get to know the table or just dive in?

[badbanking79]

I usually get a bit more passive when seated at a new table unless I get a solid hand. But maybe by being more aggressive you make a statement, not sure.

 

[722Wade722]

I don’t alter my play right away but will adjust as I play

 

[Qubert]

I so wnat to become a good player but I am afraid to start. Some day I will be braave enough to just dive in. For now I just watch.

It takes time, play free rolls and get comfortable and always feel free to inquire here, this is a very helpful, knowledgeable and friendly community

 

[Risto234]

Definitely dive in. This way players who were already there can take time (or not) ...

 

[thaskibbmasiv]

i usually dive straight in on the first hand its like a moron and then if im not knocked out il slow down and play properly

 

[Phyrrura]

I play my basic game, but being extra careful with very aggressive plays.

Usually when I change tables I like to feel the atmosphere in the first few hands, then I start to attack, but always with patience and a lot of strategy.

If you are talking about cash game, I like to watch how the table is playing and if I see players I want to play against, I join, if it doesn't look juicy I leave and open another table to watch how they play

 

[plusia]

no, I don't really care who my opponent is

 

[Markiizas]

Most of the time I dive in, but if I have a lot of chips and I see possibilities to take some prize places sure I am taking some time to get well players at new table.

 

[Gallarado777]

at the new table, you should prove yourself to be a strong and aggressive player with a strong hand and everyone will play with you very carefully. You can use this because you are a new player at the table they don't know you you don't know them use it

 

[spunka]

Problem with moving tables is you lose you Image, so I usually thighten up a bit

 

[spectralwave]

I identify the worst player at the table and always force on him, to double up.

Do you have the time? Not only that you have to have the opportunity to play numerous hands yourself and to follow many flops of others - in many tournaments you are often driven from table to table and don't really have time to get an impression.

You shouldn't change your game either, there's no reason for that! However, it is the case that I fold if one or two players go all-in in the first hand, especially if this is the case relatively early in a tournament.

I tend to be very aggressive at the hand tables, it doesn't matter if I arrived now, plus the bad thing about online poker and that sometimes we have good carats, but the site makes a mess and we lose. I don't know how there are players who call a tri bet with 3 4. online always has

Poker is a game of incomplete info... so yes I want as much info as I can get, this is especially true on cash tables

Hi.
I'm never in a hurry and I'm patient, that's my strength.
I try to watch the game of my opponents and always study their game. I am of the opinion that the better I know my opponent, the more chances I have to make the right decision.
Good luck.

I won't hold back when I get to a new table. I think the HUD plays a big role online in this case, because based on a lot of important stats and reads, I'll know right away who I'm up against.

 

[Rahatis]

I don't need more than 5-10 hands to get a good feeling of the table, so... Always ready to dive in.

 

[oleg8519]

If we talk about a cash game, it depends on the limit. I'm ready to put all-lyn on micro from the third hand. In other cases, I sit for a long time and wait for strong hands.

 

[Cooking]

I usually wait a couple of rounds of BB to see how the other players are acting. In the first rounds, I usually try to play in a conservative way and then adjust myself to the table.

 

[Pavel1203733]

I just start playing. Online poker is actually quick game. And i don't have enough attention to play and get to know with the players.

 

[Station_Master]

Just dive in. You have to play your baseline strategy then adjust as you know more about the players you are facing. If you play too cautious initially you could be losing value

 

[Stanley Aguiar]

I prefer to know the table, but if the cards are good, I dive in.
