Poker Gameplays and Strategies

[shoreno]

In fact, I often try to play on Android to keep sharpening it so that I can and play well and still what I play without money continues to receive bad cards whether what happens to me is this unlucky or poker must play with strategy.
Playing poker with money I have never felt because I knew I would lose because there was no skill in playing it but I often saw other people's games so easy to win, oh really unlucky.

your lucky because its not real but what if you play for real ? you could be loosing now but what if your only badluck that time ? badluck cant occur everytime but youl also experience to be lucky . what your doing alright , having a poker game installed on your phone is handy than practicing online  . it saves data and battery because its offline . dont think that you will loose because itl discourage you to play for real but it seems that your not ready , practice first and develop a skill/strat

In poker we experience of losing the game I’ve tried it twice to play but I ended up losing all the time. I guess I just lack of strategies to bet. I find it hard also, so we could master the games on our own in the long run by continues playing it but of course if your funds permits it. By watching some videos, reading some articles this could gives us a tremendous way to learn some strategy.

Ofcourse.
Videos, combined with  free poker games (esp the downloadable/offline ones) would be one of the most important ways I'd learn poker.

There should be really good videos on sites like YouTube on poker tutorials, strategies etc. I think he/she could find such videos first and then download/find the exact poker that the videos teach, to practice while watching the videos

I find it hard to play poker, as of now I am always losing on that game.
But of I am not using any money yet because I know I will just lose the game. Just playing online and offline... but I am really sick on it.

Don't get sick of it, try to continue playing if you really want to learn. There are so many things you can learn by continuously playing. As you gain more experience, the better you will get.

Can you guys tell me more about the basics of this game. How do you play the game?

I think it is much better if you will search for the basics or any strategies on the internet. Then you can try doing what you have learned using online/offline poker.

It's not about bad cards, but about understanding the game itself. You don't need to always have good cards in your hand in order to win, but you just have to try to figure out what's in your opponent's hand.
This is the key to victory.
You should start your poker training by understanding your opponent's ranges, which can be quite difficult without an extra off. However, by keeping an eye on the opponents' cards you see at showdown, you can plot their approximate ranges.

This includes the core strategy in the game of poker and does not rely on cards but rather understands the game and can read the cards and faces of opponents so as not to be fooled by their expressions.
It takes courage to play poker and supporting capital, and besides that, play casually and hesitantly when raising bets because your opponent will judge the cards you have are not good and quite the opposite.

I have tried the advice you gave, I think I still can't be like you because when I applied the method you gave I suffered a loss even though I tried it with a small capital in the hope that the method you gave would work for me, from this case I conclude that everyone has their own luck.

^ Basically, if you are not an expert, you will just waste money by not knowing that you are wasting money.
There is an application on Playstore that you can download and you can start a dollar bet with live online users. and I think you already read some suggestions here in this post so for additional, It's better to learn in actual, Read and Play with a real bet. Nevertheless, a poker game is very simple if you know the mechanism of how to play.

This is the only correct method. The opponent always has a certain range of cards that he will play with. Tighter players will have a starting hand range of 10% -25%, while recreational players can have 40% +. Your task is to keep in mind the approximate range of your opponent, and push off from him and not from the strength of your hand. It is a skill that can be developed. Obviously you won't be good at first, but with the right diligence, you can greatly improve your hand reading skill.

the first thing any noob should look at is starting hands and position:
https://www.cardschat.com/poker-starting-hands.php
https://www.pokerlistings.com/strategy/how-not-to-suck-at-poker-play-in-position

beginners should start with a solid ABC starting hand strategy like this:



learning to fold garbage hands preflop, and weak hands when playing out of position, is crucial to becoming a decent player.

Try to play on swcpoker or Sportsbet the site I recommend for poker games but usually swcpoker was way more active in regards to it.

sportsbet.io removed their poker room. good riddance---terrible software and therefore no traffic. hopefully they license new software and do something to promote it, but i don't expect that to happen anytime soon. maybe towards year end, or in 2021.

Fortunejack may still be an option for gambling poker because there are also several other games available and hopefully you can get a lot of profit from that gambling place, and keep in mind that Fortunejack has a minimum requirement to make a withdrawal.

only for casino/table games, where you're playing against the house. fortunejack doesn't have an actual poker room where you can play against other real players.

there is no skill or strategy involved with video poker. it's pure gambling.

There are free Masters Class available where Daniel Negreanu teaches you his ways doing poker. Although there are free videos on Youtube on how to play poker but experience is the best teacher. Some people just got the knack in performing and playing poker. You can always rely on the probability on how the cards are distributed since a deck of cards is always 52 excluding the jokers (though this technique would really require a great gut feeling and takes into consider the cards that are being played in front of you). There are some feisty poker players and there are some players that completely loses their emotions so that they can be calm while playing.

Bluffing will be a secret weapon for every poker player because that can increase their chance to trick the other player so that they can win the games. But not all of the player can get trick by them because if we are in one table with the pro poker player, their skill will be higher than us, and seems, they will take it easy if we bluff them. So you need to be careful when you want to bluff the other player and make sure that your card is good.

As a beginner I would recommend to not bluff at all when you play online. One major mistake new players tend to do is just to bluff too much. You need to put in a lot of your bankroll to make a bluff work - if you just keep min raising it's not convincing. And do you really want to put all your money in the middle with a bad hand? As a beginner you want to build a bankroll so you can play on higher stakes tables eventually. Your winning tend to be small in the beginning. If you play on 1 and 2 cent table don't expect to make 10$ every day. It's just not reallistic.

Just try to play basic, solid poker. Raise with good cards and fold bad ones. Keep raising if you hit the flop and folding if you don't.

Once you have the basics down of poker rules and starting hands you need to think more about the game and positioning on the table. Try to put yourself in the shoes of your opponent (What cards is he holding? Is he going to raise with these cards or just call? Would he call my raise with his cards?) You always need to recheck your approach to the game.

Also playing poker with play money is a bit different to real money. I would recommend to try to make a jump to micro tables where the blind are 0.01 and 0.02$. You cant lose more than 1-2$ and the learning curve is pretty good.

Are there gambling sites where I can play tables with 1-2 cent blinds and this site accepts crypto to play? If there are - could you recommend few please. Thanks

Yep, I can name one. It is called SwCPoker, and it is one of the best bitcoin poker sites around. In the past they used to run cash games with stakes as low as 0.1/0.2 chips(10/20 sats), and today, I mean, right now, there are tables with stakes 1/2, or 0.012/0.024 USD at the current rate.



Apart from watching latest videos on YouTube with the best poker pros in the world in real action, I would recommend SwCPoker for practicing.

EDIT:

Actually, there are cash games with even lower stakes on SwCPoker, currently:



I wrongly assumed they discontinued such games.

Exactly.
While reading the post, I was thinking that players can fool themselves with fake expression to get their opponents to play wrongly or in certain way.   I guess it's also about understanding when your  opponent is fooling you with expressions.

I'd probably try to predict what card my opponent is holding by looking at things deeply. There are few other strategies I will probably consider.

Facial expression is important only in offline poker, while for correct understanding, you must each time look at what cards your opponent is playing, as well as what expression he has at that moment.
In fact, this is also a matter of skills.
However, I prefer to talk about online poker, as it provides more opportunities to play, and some poker rooms are discussed in this thread.
In online poker, mathematics is important to you, such unstable factors as facial expressions and behavior are absent, which somewhat simplifies the task of reading hands.

Poker is really a variant of skill based games, if you know a lot about psychology you'll see more your opponents cards without looking at it, a simple glance, smile, movement of the hand will give you an idea what cards they are playing. Facial expression is one of the most noticeable coz you are facing each other, however there are people, experienced people who does not show any expression at all, either he's having a good or bad card.

I must agree, but the mathematics on this field is hard since it will be a wild guess for you, 1/52 chances of getting the card you want and you can't just stick with wishful thinking that you're going to get it in the card draw. It is easier to play poker in online than offline.

And make it more difficult as there's no basis aside from luck and mathematical calculations. Most of the time it's more on luck
and strategy are only based from experienced but nothing was been proven to work accurately.

Unlike with onshore casino where you are playing against your opponents and by reading facial expressions you are gaining more
confidence dealing with your decisions.

Not only you, do find it difficult to win when playing poker, I also experience the same thing. So from that I continued to study various kinds
poker strategy, but until now have not found the right strategy. And I thank all the members of this forum who have willing to share experiences
and strategy of poker games. At least I can begin to understand how to determine good and effective strategy can be win in poker games.

There's no such right strategy to consider right now, because this game was just mind reading. If you can't get what's the psychological aspect on every moves that pertains to a combination, then you're lost. Once a person hit the wrong move and you weren't able to counteract on that, you won't probably hit your right cards in order to win on poker. So to make it easier to understand it's by lucky chance for us to win.
