Some online Poker tips and Strategies

you will learn pretty quick that the key to poker is about aggression. i say this because of this reason. wen u play tight/conservative poker, you can only win the pot by having the best hand. wen u play loose/aggressive poker you can win the pot by making your opponents fold and having the best hand. one thing to keep in mind is timing. you need to take into consideration what position your in [i.e big blind, small blind, dealer, cut off (behind dealer)], what cards you have and your opponents stack sizes. all this will be learnt over time and theres no real way of explaining it because assuming your playing hold'em chances are u will never face the 7 same cards (2 in hand, 5 community) and the ones your opponents are holding, in one hand again.

finally. practice. and practice. and practice. you should be playing in freeroll tournaments and play money tournaments to get the feel of a tournament structure. you should stick to playing one where u know how many people enter each time and what blind structure (blind time limits) you feel comfortable playing with your style. if you feel there are alot of donkeys going all-in because its a free tournament remember it happens. the best thing u can do is sit out for the first half hour or so until they knock themselves out, then people play seriously. you should be always aiming to win a tournament and not just a place because remember when you have a chip stack over someone, you ultimately control their fate.
