Which simply means the odds for playing poker is still against the players no matter how skilled you are. Remember that the gambling companies are out to make profit and that will only come from players that loses their games against the Odds of the house. Good to know that you later accept the fact that no matter how skilled you are your winning is not guaranteed.
At least you can increase your chances of winning if your opponents are real players than if you will against the house edge which is pure luck. Skilled players can bluff to their opponent, using wise strategies that can be used in order to give a wrong impression and not to be bluffed by them. If we talked about skilled poker players, all I can say is they have an advantage over the normal ones. So I don't think so the chances of winning will not increase if you are a more experience and skilled poker player, there is a high potential that you can read what card in your opponent is. You are very correct my dear, if one is skilled enough and he is playing with real people there will be a great opportunity for the person to win the poker game. How will one read the card in possession of the opponent when the said card is not in your possession this is some how strange to me mate.

I fell in love with poker when the whole Texas Hold'em craze started around 2003-4ish range. I was in college at the time and man we played every single night for months on end. Bought a chip set as well which I still have. Unfortunately I haven't been playing as much as I'd like to lately, but plan to start getting in to playing more soon. I'm just curious what kind of strategies you guys employ when playing? I know there aren't a ton of tricks one can use, but there are some out there. I guess there's also a big difference when you're playing in person ( bluffing strategies ) vs playing online. I'd like to hear tips/tricks/strategies for both!
Online, most likely you are purely depend on luck when you play on fast tables, on tables where you aren't paused for a second and table is immediately filled or you are put somewhere else. Personally I try to establish myself on certain table. I play a lot at first, most likely my movements are out of logic (Sometimes) and I just try to keep the first bankroll as max as I can. Then, during these time, players come and go, some of them will stay here on long term. I try to make myself appear unpredictable and learn my opponents at the same time. Sometimes, I even fall when I have 90% chance of win and show my cards to the players who just won over me via bluff. Sometimes, I bluff and follow with the cards that would 100% lose me. Then players are lost in vein and sometimes its a gamble for them to follow me or not.

My poker strategy is that for a while I play just waiting for a good hand and not bluffing. As soon as I notice that the players at the table understand my strategy, I include a bluff in the game. I am not a professional poker player, but sometimes I can make good money. Playing poker I like to take risks as it is the risk that brings real emotions, but often I have to pay too much.
When I play poker offline, I watch the behavior of the players very closely. For example, if a player dresses defiantly, speaks loudly, then he is prone to bluffing. Neat and taciturn people, as a rule, do not like and do not know how to bluff. I have a good memory. Therefore, I memorize my cards. Many players look at their cards very often and their opponents look at them. Long-term observation of a player examining his cards makes it possible to understand what combination of cards he has in his hands. You need to develop your memory and memorize your cards right away. And then you need to bluff - depicting certain emotions. There are many such psychological tricks in the game of poker. How about your strategy when you play online poker? I'm sure you cant apply the same strategy because you cant watch the behavior of other players. You cant see their moves, their expression, etc. Avoid this question if you are not playing online poker. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Yes that's right. Most of the psychological manipulations do not work in online poker, which are very effective when playing offline poker. The most important thing when playing modern online poker is not to play with strong players. We have to play with weak players. There must be at least one known weak player in the game. In the company of friends, you can (and should) play with strong players. But this is training... And to make a profit, you need to choose a table with weak players. With a weaker game than yours. Such a cynical piece of advice. However, this is a working strategy.

A player with a good hand makes a decision very quickly, and a player who takes longer than usual to make a decision obviously doubts his cards.
I cant fully agree with this assumption. If you think so, you might be tricked easily by your opponent. I think you need to watch some videos of poker competition where you can see many popular players in the same table. You'll see, even if someone own a very good hand and have lets say 90% winning chance, the player will not do it fast. Most will act like they are thinking about the probabilities or even they will act like they are doubting their own cards to trick their opponents. Yeah I agree with you as well that this is absolutely not the case. By saying that, or playing with having that in mind, you're going to fall to bluffs really easily. One of the worst things you can do is be too aggressive and make your moves too quickly. That is just often a dead giveaway that you've got a good hand and you're likely to have people just folding on you and your good hand. And this takes us to the fascinating world of poker tells, obviously unless you get to know a player and you play in person this is pretty much impossible to apply but expert poker players use tactics similar to what you would expect from people in security agencies to give themselves an edge, you probably have seen this as well on those poker tournaments on TV, probably the best I have seen at this is Phil Hellmuth as I have seen him literally guessing the cards his opponent had in an impressive display of skill. Just a quick question, is the art of guessing have some mathematical application behind or is it based on pure memory and luck of such players? I have watched some of the notable games of Daniel Negreanu and I am just baffled and amazed on how he can accurately guess the cards of the players depending on their body language. Though there were times that his guesses were wrong, most of the time it hit the mark which really puts it in a perspective on how skillful (?!) poker players are in an international level.

The caliber of Negreanu is not to be underestimated. If he is making a guess as to his opponent's cards or perhaps just the strength of it, he is not just making a wild guess. Other professional poker players have this ability of course, but Daniel is probably better. It's like they reroll the tapes and remember how the opponent acted minutes ago in the game. They will somehow read the strength of their hands. But of course they will also base their guesses on the community cards.

That is why it will differ on which stuff we are playing , But since this is Online forum most stuff asked here is Strategy in online poker . I nhave been playing since young and yes I am good in Real life poker as i can read their reaction and body language. But in Online? nope this is really a Hard way to win . You must be friendly with the one called "Luck" before winning mostly .

In online poker, you cannot influence or manipulate other people's emotions...
However, you can control your emotions.
The most destructive emotion for a player is anger. Anger is a berserk fighter state. In a physical fight, this is a very valuable asset. It can save your life.
However, in an intellectual game like online poker, the consequences can be devastating. Bad cards or poor play of your own make the player feel helpless. In an effort to get rid of this unpleasant sensation, the player introduces himself into the state of a ferocious fighter.
It seems to him that this will correct the situation. However, this only leads to weaker play.
Therefore, it is necessary to weaken your emotions for a while. Listen to your desires. Realize yourself.
It is necessary to return to the state of thoughtful and intelligent player.

One of my friend has tried to introduce me to poker as that is one of his best games and he has made some money from playing poker severally and I refuse because I am not familiar with the strategy they use to make me a successful poker player. Am very good in playing Dice on Stake.com and I have made some money not only that, I have grown my account tia high level which enable me to earn high bonus on monthly basis.
you must Play Poker in Real one and not in Online so you can evaluate your opponent face to face and not on Online in which we have no actual experience like what we had when playing personally. In Online Poker it is harder to win because the House will never let us take their profit away lol. but if you can be Good in Dice in terms that it is pure luck base game then why not try poker instead?

Honest online poker strategies should not be confused with dishonest strategies. Using dishonest strategies will not lead to success. You will simply be banned.
For example, the use of real-time predictors is strictly prohibited.
The most advanced predictors are solvers. They help the player to play GTO. GTO is a mathematically optimal strategy game. The player cannot play GTO on their own.
The human brain (the imperfect primate brain) is incapable of performing such complex mathematical calculations.
Thus, the player using the solvers gains a significant advantage.
Online casinos identify these players through analysis.
The accounts of such players are banned, and the players are blacklisted.

Then players are lost in vein and sometimes its a gamble for them to follow me or not. What happens is that we must also need to recognize the difference between cash games and tournament play, in cash games where you can literally play for hours with the same group of people it is important to become unpredictable otherwise you are making easier for your opponents to read you and extract information out of you. But in tournament play where you can literally be moved from table to table this is difficult and as such in those instances it is better to play poker that is solid and only change your strategy once you reached a stage in which only a few players are left.

Yeah I remember when ESPN would play poker non-stop for several years. I would sit there and watch for a couple hours at time, which blows my mind today as I would never sit and waste time watching poker for hours on end these days lol. It's funny you brining up bluffing your friends and showing them your shitty hand..I still have several times that comes to mind where I did that..good times ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) I know what you mean, back in the days there were so many different poker formats on TV, not only the big tournaments but also cash games tables. Especially shows like Poker After Dark or High Stakes Poker were awesome to watch. Mixing the old guys who have been around for years like Doyle Brunson and Barry Greenstein with the younger generations like Phil Ivey or Tom Dwan was just genious. I am really glad that they tried to revive the old formats but somehow it doesn't feel the same anymore. Most of top cash game players these days are just so focused at the game, there isn't much table banter going these days. But if we looking for ways to improve our own poker game than watching the professionals play live again is a good training. We can always ask ourself, why is he raising or calling at this spot now and try to analyse their range by watching them for hours and hours play.

Observing how those professionals behave and understand the patterns that they are using, usually those players have their own ways of calling either they are holding good cards or they are just bluffing, timing and the way they made the call is part of the skills that they've learned thru time. It's not easy, but you will be able to catch it up when you are practicing the game. If you want to improve, aside from watching every available strategy that being shared all over the internet, playing and trying the actual process will help to build your confidence up. It takes time for those experienced gamblers to achieve whatever skills they've got. You can't cheat your way up by just watching them play ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif)

I also prefer to online poker to reduce the risk of getting Covid and to avoid spreading it to my family just because of my gambling activities. And because we're still in a pandemic, I took that chance as an advantage to play poker online because as we know the bluffing is an important element in poker thefore I can avoid to show my facial expressions and allows me to plot a strategy more because I'm just playing it online and also it gives me more time to my kids and family.

Look, instead of giving you strategy advice, as many have done and some have done showing that they don't have much idea, I will tell you to think well why you want to play. If you started playing in 2003 and you ask these questions I bet you didn't become a winning poker player back then. It was the golden age of poker, by learning 4 rules like playing few hands and playing them aggressively you could make a fortune. I started playing when the decline started and it wasn't that easy anymore. And since then it has been increasingly difficult to play and win.
That's why I tell you to ask yourself: why do you want to play? Fun? Fine. To make money? Don't have high expectations and get the idea that you will have to work hard, learn about statistics, balancing ranges and a lot of stuff and you will also have to buy (legal) statistical programs.
I wonder if you understand the relationship of everything that you have listed? All these statistics grinder software users who flooded all poker rooms eventually ate themselves.

Look, instead of giving you strategy advice, as many have done and some have done showing that they don't have much idea, I will tell you to think well why you want to play. If you started playing in 2003 and you ask these questions I bet you didn't become a winning poker player back then. It was the golden age of poker, by learning 4 rules like playing few hands and playing them aggressively you could make a fortune. I started playing when the decline started and it wasn't that easy anymore. And since then it has been increasingly difficult to play and win.
That's why I tell you to ask yourself: why do you want to play? Fun? Fine. To make money? Don't have high expectations and get the idea that you will have to work hard, learn about statistics, balancing ranges and a lot of stuff and you will also have to buy (legal) statistical programs.

Nothing beats out when you do play poker physically rather than on going online because it really comparable and you could really tell the experience is totally way too different. Talking about strategies then nothing is more enjoyable if you are against with other players face to face or personally.I do find it more interesting and enjoyable rather than staring on the front of the computer which is something totally given some different vibe.

No, don't leave the table. If your opponents are like that, it means they are predictable. You can easily read their plays if they are always staying safe. They won't raise if they got a bad hand, for example, so you need to stay away once they start raising bigger amounts.
These are also the kind of players you can easily bluff in poker. You put a good raise and they will fold immediately. If you think you have the stronger hand, you can also easily catch them by simply calling every time they raise and then raise or even all-in in your last bet. They'll either be scared or they'll fight their weaker hand.
Fair enough but wouldn't that mean you wouldn't really get anything if they have a good hand and start moving accordingly? Though I'd guess that you can profit off of a chance if you both have good hands, and it would all fall down to who actually has the better hand. Though it would probably take quite a bit of time then for things to actually get moving no? Though really, if all your opponents were people who played it safe, why bother playing just leave the table imo.
I wouldn't leave if they're playing safe. All of the people at the table will definitely play for their own safety and they won't just leave just as you're thinking. But if you think that it's better for you to leave the table and look elsewhere then you do it. But that's not the best option IMO if you want to play with others through the same table. You all have the same chance of bluffing and winning in cards and it's all going to be depending on when you fold and when to call at most times. Adopting what others are doing will make you last in a table. Well if we are talking about lasting last in a table then that's for sure the correct thing to adopt, but would that actually be enjoyable? I have that mindset of enjoying games in the first place after all, and having games where you risk it even with bad cards or having that thrill of playing against someone with a good hand is the part that I'd enjoy. I guess it just depends from person to person?

Yeah I remember when ESPN would play poker non-stop for several years. I would sit there and watch for a couple hours at time, which blows my mind today as I would never sit and waste time watching poker for hours on end these days lol. It's funny you brining up bluffing your friends and showing them your shitty hand..I still have several times that comes to mind where I did that..good times ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) I know what you mean, back in the days there were so many different poker formats on TV, not only the big tournaments but also cash games tables. Especially shows like Poker After Dark or High Stakes Poker were awesome to watch. Mixing the old guys who have been around for years like Doyle Brunson and Barry Greenstein with the younger generations like Phil Ivey or Tom Dwan was just genious. I am really glad that they tried to revive the old formats but somehow it doesn't feel the same anymore. Most of top cash game players these days are just so focused at the game, there isn't much table banter going these days. But if we looking for ways to improve our own poker game than watching the professionals play live again is a good training. We can always ask ourself, why is he raising or calling at this spot now and try to analyse their range by watching them for hours and hours play. Observing how those professionals behave and understand the patterns that they are using, usually those players have their own ways of calling either they are holding good cards or they are just bluffing, timing and the way they made the call is part of the skills that they've learned thru time. It's not easy, but you will be able to catch it up when you are practicing the game. If you want to improve, aside from watching every available strategy that being shared all over the internet, playing and trying the actual process will help to build your confidence up. It takes time for those experienced gamblers to achieve whatever skills they've got. You can't cheat your way up by just watching them play ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) Well I think there are many people who have great talent, and for poker there are people who have that already developed, people who with little information do a lot, I have a friend who always plays online in tournaments, especially those who were Of betcoinpoker, he always secured the top 3 positions, I don't really know how he has such skill, and in real life he is very good when it comes to playing pool, and I think poker is a talent that he has for that. Well to tell the truth, I have been studying poker a lot, from guides, from when pokerstarts.net came out, I have always liked the theory that develops under the game, but I have not yet reached that level of winning tournaments.

Though it would probably take quite a bit of time then for things to actually get moving no? With the kind of poker player we are talking about, it is either you will fold because he/she is obviously having a hand stronger than yours or you will bluff your way to win. Depending on the cards on the table, you will weigh your possibility of bluffing. You might want to try test the waters first and raise a good amount, but not that big. If this predictable opponent of yours calls easily, then begin to consider he/she is confident enough with his/her hand and that your bluff will only make him/her win big.

I wonder if you understand the relationship of everything that you have listed?
I don't wonder, on the contrary. It's rather clear to me that you have not understood anything I have said, that you have no idea about the history of poker or the poker world, and that the following things you have said are nothing but nonsense: All these statistics grinder software users who flooded all poker rooms eventually ate themselves. It makes no sense for an ordinary player to play online, since there are these users at each table and he initially has less chances against them, as a result, such a user stops playing online. As a result, poker came to the position in which it is now - the golden years are behind and there are very few chances for the revival of the former interest, and taking into account how quickly the bots are progressing, in the future everything will be even worse.
I have you on ignore, probably because of the nonsense you say, and I only saw your quote because someone else quoted you, which is why I stopped to answer you such nonsense, but you don't need to try very hard, I'm not going to waste any more time with you.
