Review of poker order of cards::How Do You Score in Poker







Review of poker order of cards::How Do You Score in Poker








Draw               hands               are               hands               after               the               flop               in               which               the               player               has               four               cards               to               a               straight,               a               flush               or               both.

Made               hands               are               hands               which               after               the               flop               the               player               has               trips,               two               pair,               top               pair               or               a               pair               of               kings               or               aces               in               the               pocket               (the               last               two               both               pre-flop).

Of               course               higher               hands               such               as               a               straight               flush,               a               full               straight               or               flush               on               the               flop               and               four               of               a               kind               are               also               made               hands.

The               difference               between               good               play               and               poor               play               for               a               draw               hand               and               a               made               hand               are               significantly               different.

A               great               poker               player               will               try               to               control               the               table,               stay               in               or               fold               based               on               several               factors,               which               are               discussed               in               the               rest               of               this               article.

This               play               strategy               is               designed               to               increase               your               potential               winnings               as               well               as               to               provide               guidelines               for               playing               each               type               of               hand.
               Draw               Hands               Strategy
               If               you               are               dealt               a               draw               hand               on               the               flop,               your               best               strategy               is               to               keep               the               betting               relatively               low               and               to               keep               as               many               players               in               as               possible.

After               all               your               chance               of               filling               the               straight               or               flush               is               usually               less               than               50%.

Even               when               you               catch               your               draw,               you               may               lose               to               a               higher               hand.

Four               cards               to               a               flush               are               your               best               drawing               hand               other               than               the               rare               straight               flush               possibility.

However,               if               you               have               a               jack               and               ten               of               hearts               and               two               other               hearts               on               the               flop,               say               an               eight               and               a               queen               of               hearts               you               can               still               draw               a               fifth               heart               and               lose               to               another               person               with               two               hearts               with               one               being               a               king               or               an               ace.
               A               flush               with               an               ace               is               called               the               nut               flush               because               other               than               running               into               a               straight               flush,               an               ace               will               dominate               all               other               hands               providing               a               pair               is               not               showing               on               board.

If               a               pair               does               show               you               have               to               worry               about               your               nut               flush               being               beaten               by               a               full               house               or               even               quads.
               While               a               high               flush               will               usually               win               if               no               pair               is               showing               when               you               reach               the               river.

Without               the               ace               of               the               suit               in               your               hold               cards               you               must               be               very               careful               if               another               player               bets               all               in               as               this               is               a               very               clear               sign               to               you               that               they               have               the               ace               themselves.

I               have               folded               flushes               when               raised               by               a               conservative               player               who               is               likely               to               have               a               higher               flush               than               mine.
               Straight               draws               are               more               difficult               to               play.

If               there               are               two               or               three               suited               cards               in               the               flop               you               probably               do               not               want               to               play               this               draw               hand.

If               you               have               say               a               suited               Ace               and               10               to               King,               you               have               a               double               draw               possibility               for               both               a               straight               and               a               flush.

This               is               as               good               as               it               gets               with               a               drawing               hand.

Your               odds               of               hitting               either               the               nut               flush               or               nut               straight               are               above               50%.

This               is               why               you               want               as               many               people               in               as               possible.

You               get               a               potentially               large               pot               with               minimal               risking               a               large               sum               of               your               own               money.


               If               you               get               a               nut               flush               with               not               pair               on               board               you               are               the               winner.

The               question               is               how               to               maximize               you               pot               without               scaring               all               the               other               players               out.

A               moderate               value               bet               which               may               retain               players               with               trips               or               lower               draw               hands               is               the               smartest               move.

However,               if               you               are               playing               with               fish               (poor               players)               you               might               get               a               caller               with               an               all               in               bet.

This               is               especially               true               if               they               are               short               stacked               or               high               stacked.
               Personally,               I               would               not               even               recommend               a               player               draw               to               an               inside               or               one               way               straight.

There               are               four               outs               of               about               forty               five               cards               you               have               not               seen.

This               is               less               than               one               in               five               odds.

In               addition,               this               hand               may               be               beaten               by               a               superior               drawing               hand               or               a               higher               made               hand.

Many               times               these               hands               also               result               in               a               draw,               not               a               loser               but               not               a               winner               either.

It               is               just               not               worth               it.

Even               an               open               ended               straight               such               as               4,5,6,7               where               both               a               3               and               an               8               will               give               you               a               straight               still               is               a               long               shot               when               you               factor               in               that,               that               hand               can               also               be               beaten               by               a               player               with               say               8,9               or               a               an               higher               made               hand.

A               straight               chaser               is               probably               not               a               long               term               winner               unless               they               are               capable               of               keeping               a               lot               of               people               in               and               the               betting               low.

This               is               not               easy               to               do.
               Made               Hand               Strategy
               A               made               hand               is               generally               a               combination               of               cards               that               can               win               all               by               itself               such               as               pocket               aces               on               the               first               two               cards,               a               set               or               trips               on               the               flop,               a               full               house               or               better.

This               includes               a               complete               straight               or               flush               on               the               flop               as               well.
               A               made               hand               seems               easier               to               play.

It               is               not.

Pocket               aces               or               kings               are               considered               a               made               hand.

Yet               they               are               only               a               single               pair               if               the               five               board               cards               do               not               give               you               a               third               ace               or               king               respectively.

Pocket               aces               or               kings               are               best               played               by               a               very               large               bet.

Your               best               chance               is               to               bet               out               all               the               draw               hands               and               as               many               other               hands               as               possible.

If               you               go               into               the               flop               with               one               caller               you               have               a               very               good               chance               of               winning.

If               two               players               or               more               call,               while               your               mathematical               odds               are               still               higher               than               any               other               player               going               into               the               flop,               your               odds               of               winning               against               two               are               more               player               are               less               than               50%.

The               key               on               these               high               pairs               is               not               to               slow               play               but               to               try               and               get               as               many               people               out               a               soon               as               possible.
               The               opposite               the               strategy               you               should               use               on               a               made               hand               post               flop               of               trips               or               a               full               house.

These               hands               have               a               good               chance               of               winning               even               without               improvement               on               the               turn               or               the               river.

In               order               to               maximize               your               winnings               deceptive               play               in               the               best               strategy               in               this               case.

Slow               play               the               flop               with               a               check               and               hope               that               someone               else               will               bet.

If               you               are               in               good               late               position               and               the               flop               reveals               some               draw               hand               possibilities,               a               minimal               bet               might               be               advisable.

You               want               people               to               be               invested               in               the               pot               without               having               them               fold               leaving               you               with               just               the               blinds.

The               same               goes               for               turn               card               betting.

You               have               to               hope               that               someone               gets               a               hand               worth               betting               or               tries               for               a               bluff               win.

Look               weak               at               least               until               the               river               is               turned.
               If               betting               has               been               solid               make               a               bet               about               equal               to               the               pot.

If               someone               is               short               staked,               bet               enough               to               knock               them               out.

If               someone               looks               strong,               but               not               as               strong               as               you,               bet               all               in.

I               have               seen               many               full               houses               be               beaten               by               higher               full               houses               or               quads.

If               you               do               not               have               the               nuts,               this               can               be               a               game               ender               for               you.

On               the               other               hand               it               can               move               you               to               a               dominant               position               in               terms               of               chip               count.

High               chip               count               is               important               in               both               tournament               play               and               cash               games.
               Conclusion
               A               made               hand               is               considered               better               than               a               drawing               hand.

Why?

Because               with               a               made               hand               you               have               control               of               the               betting.

Control               of               betting               is               control               of               the               table.

While               poor               player               may               stay               in               with               a               flush               draw               when               a               large               bet               is               made,               many               better               players               will               not               risk               their               stack               on               a               draw               hand.
               Draw               hands               are               fun               to               play               but               it               is               gambling               not               skill               if               you               risk               a               large               portion               of               your               chips               on               a               less               than               50/50               bet.

Yet               I               have               seen               some               of               the               highest               rated               players               in               the               world               do               it.

That               is               probably               why               the               recent               World               Series               of               Poker               main               event               winners               have               not               been               the               highest               rated               players               in               the               world.
               Maximize               the               skill               in               your               poker               play               and               minimize               the               luck               factor.
