Poker Tips from
Bodog.com: Decisions and Subsequent Actions
The most important decisions you make are the ones that occur frequently, this is why pre-flop
strategy is so important. Make poor decisions pre-flop and no matter how well you play post-flop
it will be hard to recover from your initial mistake. The attitude that "any two cards can win"
is a losing one in the long run.
Pre-flop errors are easy to make because they don't cost very much individually. Your discipline
breaks down and you start calling raises with hands like K-9 off-suit. If you continually did this
over the course of a year you would lose a large sum of money.
The other problem with pre-flop errors is that the opportunity to make them arises early and
often. Avoid making money draining decisions pre-flop and you will have a solid foundation for
winning hold'em strategy.
Pre-flop strategy is the first step in becoming a winning poker player. Using the information you
gather from position, game texture, starting hands and raises to play the right hands in the right
situations is something you should do every time you're dealt a hand. So make sure you have the
discipline to fully evaluate frequent decisions and avoid making costly long term mistakes that
will make you a losing player.
