Default Re: Do you have any great tips for new poker players?

I think with online poker you have to deal with alot of bad beats and you can't let them take you off your game. Every time you take a bad beat just know you had the best hand going in and the odds were with you.

That is very true. Over time you learn to let these beats roll off of you. With time you learn that it is a part of the game and that there is no sense at all in getting overly angry and upset over even the worst beats. Yes it is only natural to get a little upset, but the fact of the matter is that the quicker you can move on from these losses and the quicker you can get over it, the quicker you can get back to winning pots and making money. Crying and steaming over lost pots can only hurt you.

You are going to lose when ahead in this game, that is the nature of the game. Once you can learn to get over these losses quicker you have taken a huge step toward being a winner.


Great tip foolz!
