Review of texas holdem hand ranking::How do You Play Texas Holdem Poker








Poker               strategies               vary               from               one               to               another.

But               if               we               examine               them               we               can               find               several               similarities.

There               are               generally               about               four               different               styles               of               play               that               all               these               strategies               can               fall               into.

This               article               will               explore               the               conservative               style               of               poker               play               in               No               Limit               Texas               Holdem'.

No               matter               what               kind               of               No               Limit               Texas               Holdem',               whether               it               be               a               tournament               or               cash               game,               the               conservative               player               doesn't               change               their               game               too               much.

The               idea               is               to               approach               hands               and               find               ways               to               create               the               best               odds               in               your               favor               with               premium               hands.

There               is               not               really               a               definitive               way               for               everyone               to               profit               using               this               style,               so               find               the               best               suit               for               your               game               and               turn               that               strategy               into               an               art.

Master               your               own               art               and               it               will               reflect               your               own               personality,               but               I               guarantee               the               conservative               roots               will               always               be               there               showing               very               clearly.

Hand               ranking               will               dictate               more               often               the               way               you'll               play               a               hand               consveratively               rather               than               action               taken               before               you               take               action.

To               some               extent               the               previous               action               will               matter,               for               example               when               there               is               a               raise               and               then               a               reraise,               it               will               make               you               reach               higher               along               the               hand               rankings               for               hands               in               the               top               five               starting               hands               especially               in               a               cash               game.

In               a               tournament               depending               where               you               act               this               situation               would               only               leave               room               for               starting               hands               like               AK               suited,               Pocket               AA,               or               Pocket               KK.

Cash               games               could               leave               you               doing               much               different               with               some               of               the               top               ten               hands               depending               on               the               raiser               and               your               bankroll               at               the               moment.

Races               are               more               common               in               cash               games               and               can               be               profitable               on               a               good               day.

But               even               in               cash               games,               the               conservative               player               will               avoid               lower               pockets               with               many               callers               behind               because               pockets               against               three               or               four               hands               are               highly               unfavored               to               scoop               the               pot.
               Conservative               players               in               tournaments               will               be               focused               solely               on               cashing               first               and               survival.

This               is               effective               for               profiting.

Tournaments               are               really               a               game               of               survival               anyway,               so               conservative               players               control               their               bankrolls               better               in               tournaments               than               cash               games               where               aggressive               players               who               can               afford               the               losses               really               can               thrive               on               conservative               tables.

Conservative               players               are               still               trying               to               find               way               to               get               their               best               odds               for               their               money               no               matter               the               game               however.

They               aren't               likely               to               draw               as               much,               but               rather               attack               drawing               players.
               The               most               important               thing               is               to               remember               to               have               fun               with               your               style,               Holdem'               is               entertainment               first               before               serious.

Your               style               will               normally               reflect               your               person,               but               some               people               are               completely               opposite               in               their               styles               and               personalities.

Its               good               to               find               ways               to               show               yourself               you               can               be               on               the               opposite               end               of               the               spectrum               at               some               times,               and               poker               is               perfect               for               this.

Having               a               strategy,               sticking               to               it,               and               learning               every               time               you               play               is               the               best               way               to               find               success               in               poker.

    Visualize               a               deck               of               cards.

    Is               it               techno               colored?

    Well               stop               it,               and               visualize               a               plain               deck               of               cards,               this               will               be               complicated               enough               without               the               frills.

    In               a               standard               deck               of               cards               you               have               four               suits,               two               red               and               two               black.

    These               suits               are               Diamonds,               Hearts,               Clubs               and               Spades.

    Each               suit               has               an               ace,               a               jack,               a               queen               and               king,               as               well               as               number               cards               two               through               ten.
                   These               are               our               cards,               lets               play               poker.
                   Texas               Hold               'Em               will               be               the               game               we               examine               because               it               is               simple               and               incredibly               popular.

    Whether               you               sit               down               to               a               ring               game               or               a               tournament,               these               are               the               common               factors:
                   Everyone               is               dealt               two               cards               face               down.

    You               may               look               at               your               cards,               once               dealt,               but               do               so               carefully               so               that               your               neighbor               does               not               see               what               you               have.

    There               is               a               big               blind               and               a               small               blind.

    You               go               around               the               table               in               a               circle,               and               to               'call',               a               player               must               place               as               many               chips               in               the               center               of               the               table               as               the               big               blind.

    For               instance,               if               the               big               blind               is               $50,               you               have               to               put               a               $50               dollar               chip               in               the               center               to               play               that               hand.

    Otherwise               you               fold               your               hand               and               do               not               play               your               'hole               cards',               the               two               cards               you               were               dealt.
                   Calling               and               folding               are               not               the               only               options.

    The               third               option               is               to               bet.

    If               a               player               bets               during               their               turn,               all               other               players               must               call               the               bet               in               order               to               stay               in               the               game.

    If               another               player               bets               over               the               first               bet,               it               is               called               a               raise.

    You               may               call               a               first               bet               and               decide               to               fold               a               raise               if               you               do               not               feel               that               you               have               the               best               hand               after               another               player               has               bet.
                   And               speaking               of               best               hands,               how               do               you               know               if               your               hand               is               a               good               one?

    Here               is               a               quick               rundown               of               poker               hands               and               their               value.
                   The               lowest               hand               is               a               card-high               hand.

    If               you               had               an               Ace,               9               and               did               not               have               any               matching               cards               on               the               board,               your               hand               would               be               referred               to               as               Ace               high.
                   The               next               best               hand               is               a               pair.

    A               pair's               value               goes               by               the               number.

    A               pair               of               10's               is               better               than               a               pair               of               5's.

    Aces               are               high               in               hold               'em               so               a               pair               of               Aces               is               top               pair.

    If               two               players               have               an               Ace               in               their               hand               that               pairs               on               the               board,               the               winner               is               determined               by               their               other               hole               card.

    A,9               beats               A,6.

    The               second               card               in               this               situation               is               referred               to               as               a               kicker.
                   Unless...

    the               other               player               manages               to               pair               their               six.

    That               is               the               next               best               hand,               two               pair.

    If               you               have               a               5,6               in               your               hand               and               a               5,6               shows               up               on               the               board,               you               have               two               pair.

    Sometimes               two               of               a               kind               show               up               on               the               board.

    When               this               happens,               they               say               the               board               'paired'.

    That               is               a               common               pair,               which               means               everyone               who               is               playing               that               hand               has               that               same               pair.
                   If               there               are               two               8's               on               the               board,               and               a               player               has               an               eight               in               his               hand,               that               is               the               next               best               hand,               which               is               three               of               a               kind,               or               trips.

    Three               of               a               kind               beats               two               pair.

    Another               way               to               get               trips               is               if               you               were               dealt               a               pair.

    For               example,               you               look               at               your               cards               and               have               a               9               of               diamonds               and               a               9               of               clubs.

    If               a               9               of               hearts               comes               on               the               board,               you               have               three               of               a               kind.
                   But               three               of               a               kind               can               be               beat               by               a               straight.

    A               straight               is               five               cards               of               any               suit               that               run               in               numerical               order.

    For               instance,               
                   2,3,4,5,6.

    A               high               straight               beats               a               low               straight.

    10,j,q,k,Ace               is               the               highest               straight.
                   But               a               low               flush               will               beat               a               high               straight.

    The               flush               is               5               cards               of               the               same               suit.
                   The               next               hand               up               is               the               full-house.

    A               full               house               is               a               hand               with               3               of               a               kind               and               a               pair.

    If               you               have               king,               9               and               the               board               is               
                   5,k,3,9,k               then               you               have               a               full               house:               Three               kings               and               two               nines,               or               'kings               full               of               nines'.
                   Four               of               a               kind,               meaning               four               nines               or               four               jacks,               etc.

    is               the               next               highest               hand.
                   If               you               are               lucky               enough               to               end               up               with               a               straight               in               the               same               suit,               then               you               have               a               straight               flush               hand,               which               is               nearly               unbeatable.

    The               only               hand               higher               than               a               straight               flush               is               a               royal               flush,               which               is               10,j,q,k,ace               of               the               same               suit.
                   So               which               hands               should               you               play,               and               which               should               you               fold?

    It               takes               time               and               practice               to               learn               how               to               gage               which               hands               to               play.

    Being               dealt               a               pair               can               seem               like               a               good               hand               until               you               see               the               board               play               out.
                   Now               you               have               your               hole               cards,               and               you               know               what               hands               you're               looking               for,               what               happens               next?

    When               you               decide               to               play               a               hand               and               have               called               the               big               blind               and               any               subsequent               bets,               the               dealer               will               deal               three               cards,               face               up,               in               the               middle               of               the               board.

    These               three               cards               are               the               flop.

    Look               at               the               flop               and               think               about               how               it               relates               to               your               hole               cards.

    Did               you               flop               a               pair?

    Are               there               any               good               hands               that               might               develop?

    If               you               have               four               cards               to               a               straight               or               a               flush,               that               is               called               a               draw.

    You               can               draw               to               a               straight,               if               you               have               6,7               in               your               hand               and               5,8,k               is               on               the               board,               you               have               four               cards               to               a               straight.

    This               can               get               risky.

    You               might               get               the               fifth               card               (4               or               9)               or               you               might               not               get               anything.

    If               another               player               bets               high,               you               might               want               to               fold               out               of               the               hand.

    If               no               one               bets,               you               can               'check'               the               hand,               and               see               another               card               which               might               help               you               make               a               decision               whether               to               bet,               fold,               or               call               anyone               else's               bet.
                   After               the               flop,               once               everyone               has               checked,               bet,               called               or               folded,               the               fourth               card               is               dealt.

    This               card               is               the               turn.

    Everyone               has               the               opportunity               to               check,               bet,               call               and               raise               and               then               the               fifth               and               final               card               is               dealt               in               the               center.

    This               card               is               the               river.

    Once               a               final               round               of               betting               takes               place               after               the               river               card,               all               remaining               players               turn               over               their               hand               and               the               best               hand               takes               the               pile               of               chips               in               the               center               to               add               to               their               'stack'               of               chips.

    The               chips               that               have               been               placed               in               the               center               through-out               the               game               are               called               the               'pot'.

    The               winner               always               takes               the               pot.

    Occasionally,               two               people               will               have               hands               of               identical               value,               and               then               the               pot               is               split.

    Hand               values               are               figured               by               each               player's               top               five               cards.
                   It               is               not               uncommon               for               hands               to               be               played               in               which               no               one               sees               the               turn               or               the               river               card.

    If               someone               makes               a               good               bet               and               all               the               other               players               fold,               that               player               takes               the               pot.

    Bluffing               is               common               in               poker,               and               sometimes               someone               with               a               weak               hand               will               make               a               large               bet               in               an               attempt               to               'steal               the               pot'.

    Part               of               the               game               is               determining               whether               someone               is               bluffing,               and               knowing               when               to               call               a               big               bet               and               when               to               fold.

    If               you               believe               your               hand               is               the               best,               you               should               call               or               even               raise               a               big               bet.

    Bluffs               always               run               the               risk               of               being               caught               by               a               truly               strong               hand.
