Any Tips for Me?



Posted Thu Dec 30, 2004 5:09 am GMT by :D
I'm 15 and have been playing poker with my friends for about 6 months now. We play twice a week with a $5 buy in. I usually come out +$5 and rarely lose all my money. I haven't really picked out on their style of play, and would like to hear some suggestions on how I can pick up bluffs, and their strategies. What things should I look for? One of my friends bluffs way too much, but it's pretty much a guess when I try to catch him. Suggestions would be great.

The way I play is very conservative. If I have a pretty good hand, I will call one hand, then raise it as the turn card comes up, I bet big when the river comes up. I rarely bluff, but when I do my friends think I don’t have much, since I really only go in with good hands. Any tips on how I can be more aggressive, without being stupid. Some advice would be appreciated.


If this should be moved just PM me.

Is this a $5 small tourney?

A no limit cash game?

When someone loses all their money, if they have $3, they can buy chips only off other people. Since were all friends we pay eachother back.

Play agressive with strong hands but not so agressive you scare everyone out of the pot. And remember it doesnt hurt to fold.
