Ten Commandments Of Poker Here are my TEN COMMANDMENTS of POKER!!!
All Commandments are Rules I live by and are subject to situation.
#1 - NEVER GO ALL IN BEFORE THE FLOP
#2 - NEVER PLAY OTHER PERSONS HAND ( PLAY YOUR OWN CARDS )
#3 - NEVER RISK ALL YOUR CHIPS UNLESS YOU HAVE THE NUTS!!!
#4 - LET OTHERS BET INTO YOU!
#5 - NEVER BLUFF WITH ALL YOUR CHIPS!!!
#6 - NEVER CHASE, BE PATIENT, FOLD FOLD FOLD, WAIT FOR YOUR HAND!!!
#7 - DO NOT PLAY RAGS. IF YOU HAVE CHIP LEAD AND PLAY RAGS YOU
WILL NOT BE CHIP LEADER FOR LONG.
#8 - DO NOT PLAY LOW POCKETS IF THE BLINDS ARE RAISED! ( MORE THAN A FIFTH OF YOUR CHIPS )
#9 - BE AGGRESSIVE....IF YOUR FAT IN CHIPS, BE EVEN MORE AGGRESSIVE.
#10 - LAST AND STILL VERY IMPORTAND. WAIT, WATCH, AND DO NOTHING
UNTILL YOU START HITTING ON THE BOARD. YOU CAN'T WIN IF YOU
ARE NOT CATCHING.....WAIT TILL U ARE!!!
These rules are how I try to play. Different situations may cause you to be more objective in how these rules apply. I have had much success following these rules. I have discussed these rules with several proffessionals and they have there own rules.
I would love to hear your rules. Please share with the rest of the site. These rules have nothing to do with how to pick out the Donkey or when to slow play, or even reading another player. They are the basics of the game. A good start heading for the Final table.
Good luck,
