Got something to say?





Game selection is a critical skill at poker. I have spoken and mentioned this factor a couple of times, if not to find your poker game then perhaps learn other poker games to master improve the other. In today's post im referring to 'game selection' as in choosing which games or tournaments to play. You want to play in a poker game where you have an advantage over your opponents. No matter how good you are, if you play in a game filled with sharks, it is virtually impossible to make any money. The luck factor and the rake would make profits slim in the long run. Its is simple, find a game that is BEATABLE! There are several ways to quickly analyze your opponents to figure out if you should play in the game: Know the opponents. If you play at your local casino or an online poker room for a while, you will get to know the players. So keep notes! Determine how loose-passive the game is. A loose game is  a good poker game. A game that is passive is also good. This can be determined by how much raising occurs. If people won't bet hard when they have very good hands, they will let you draw out on them and let you get away with only small losses on your losing hands. Fundamentally, the two work well together because the loose game let's you win big pots when you have your made hand and you are aggressive and the passive game let's you draw cheaply and have small losses on losing hands. Notice the number of fundamental mistakes people make and capitalize on it! Be aware of your surroundings, dont just play any poker game- selective = profits.
