Beginner’s poker en ligne luck is almost uncanny-it was a rare time when I didn’t see a first timer poker player at a home game make it to the final table. There would always be some sickening stroke of luck-some runner’s saving his butt after a terrible call, or pocket rockets turning into a full boat, Aces over kings. It was embarrassing-at our home games, the poker vets were afraid to bet against the new guys because they had no idea how they’d play. The problem wasn’t really our back luck, but it was that we didn’t know how to play them.

Think about it-for the most part, these guys will play anything, so any time that you’ve got a decent to killer hand, feel free to suck them in for as much money as you can get out of them. Now if you don’t have decent cards and it’s just you

and the newbie, feel free to outplay him. Most newbies will play far too many hands, meaning that they’ll limp in with garbage just to see the flop. If you can see that they’re not too excited about the cards, give them a huge raise and watch ‘em fold to you. New players are easy when you figure them out- just show them who’s boss early on and you’ll own them in the long run.
