Flop advice in Online Poker Gambling

• Raise with AA-QQ, AK and AQs from any position.


• Basically, all other starting hands are limping hands. Even though you might re-raise with them when you are defending your blinds, you might also raise with these hands when you are first in from last position.


• Mix up your play sometimes by raising/calling/re-raising with hands you would not normally play. This prevents predictability in online poker gambling.

General pre-Flop Advice in Online Poker Gambling

• The majority of the time, raise/re-raise with top-pairs (AA-QQ) and top connectors (AK, AQs) to make those with low pairs and various connectors pay to see flops against you. They will often have the opportunity to double up on you if they hit. Many beginners do not realize this and fold too often before the flop.


• Stick to premium hands. You will pay dearly to "chase" with second-best hands when playing No Limit.


• Keep most raises down to 70% to 100% (3 times the big blind is typically equals an 80% pot bet) to save money for the times when you get re-raised or called by strong holdings. If there are limpers in front of you, raise to about 4-6 times the big blind.


• Have respect for strong, tight players (you should drop AQ if a strong player raises under the gun).

• When very weak players have entered the pot, call and take flops with them.




In order to decide the correct action, keep these factors in mind when Online Poker gambling:

1. What did you flop and what is your relative strength? 

2. Who, if anyone, raised before the flop? What kind of player are they?
3. What position do you have relative to the player who raised? 

4. Number of players (it is hard to bluff 3 or more opponents and there is a big chance of someone hitting a strong hand)? 

5. Your stack size and the opponents' stack size. When facing a bet, fold unless you have good reason to doubt the other player has strong cards. Because that player is "setting the odds", it is important to make the right choice. Remember, your opponent can be holding anything from the stone cold nuts down to rags - if your hand is decent it may very well be an underdog to many possible hands. You will not always fold. In fact, sometimes answer with a raise when you have a good chance of grabbing the lead or if you think the opponent is weak. Then, YOU will be "setting the odds" and forcing the other player to make a decision, and potentially, the mistake. Save your calls unless you have very good reason not to such as like slow-playing a monster or drawing to the nuts in a multi-way pot. You will seldom get the odds for chasing "outs" by calling, unless your opponent's bet too small or they give away free cards. By calling with mediocre cards, you become set up for a "guessing game" where you have to read opponents well and "make moves" to win.
