Answer 1

I recommend that you read "The Theory of Poker" by David Sklansky if you haven't already. Read it several times. To have much a chance to compete at a top level you will need to do some book studying. The Theory of Poker is the best book to start with.

If you can't see who the fish is in the game, it's probably you. So get out when the game is tough. When most pots get heads up by the flop, you know you are probably in a tough game. Look for easy weak players, that's where the money is.

Keep accurate records. Writing your results down can help you tremendously.

Take time to analyze hands. Go back through a hand step by step and break it apart. Investigate it like a detective.

Try learning a little bit of probability. Maybe you know it already and maybe you don't. If you don't make sure you get working on that right away.

Stay fresh when you play. Don't play angry, don't play for too many hours straight. Take breaks when you need to. Stay focused and concentrate. Learn as much as you can about your opponents play.

A person could really write a book about poker that's over a thousand pages long. It's that complicated. You make your decisions on each hand based on various factors that change from one hand to the next. Did someone just a lose a big pot? How will he play now after losing that big pot? Will tighten up, will he loosen up, will he change much at all? Which players care the most about their chips and which care the least? What lead to that player check raising? Could this guy be raising because he thinks I'm bluffing? That guy done something different this time, I wonder what it means? What all hands does this person like to start with? I wonder what this player thinks of me? The list just goes on and on and one. Just try to learn and get better a little at a time.

Let's compare poker to math for a minute here. If you asked me how do you solve a math problem, I might say something like "just add the numbers together to get the right answer". This is what you do in poker too. Every hand you have different numbers to add together, you gotta try to get as much info as you can and add it all up to try and come out with the right answer. In poker though, there is missing information, there is information you might be using that could be wrong, and of course there is correct information. So when you add it all up you have some missing numbers, some wrong ones, and some that are right. You gotta deal with each hand by it's own special characteristics.

To come close to answering your question will require a lifetime of learning. You can always get just a little bit better.

im in love with facebook poker texas holdem too, i started with just 100k in chips and won over 13 million facebook poker chips now. My sister plays like 10 hours a day tho and I never give her any because is so unbelivably bad (im not even kidding), so I make her buy. She usually buys from facebookpokerstore too, they have good prices. I hope it works out for you.

Answer 3

Every now and then I like to overbet when I have the nuts. it usually results in everyone folding but every now and then you can draw in someone who is trying to be over agressive. They'll usually call you or try to bluff you by reraising or going all in. It works best when an over agressive player gets a good hand or good draw.
