Evaluating the Raiser: Whom Did He Raise?

In a multiway pot, for each action that occurs you have to consider not only the context and history of the source, but that which the action is placed against. If someone makes a bet with two other poker players in the pot, you have to believe that he is reacting to something specific at the table, not simply raising on the literal value of his hand.

For instance, when a player before you bets, and another online poker player after that player but before you raises, that player is often reacting to the original bettor. Because you have yet to display information about your hand on this street, he may be expecting you to fold to a raise and a reraise. When the action gets to you, the question of how to respond becomes not only why did the original bettor bet (what range of hands would he open into two other poker online players from first position) but also why did the raiser raise (what range of hands could he raise with, could he be bluffing and expecting you to get out of the way)?

Often, when responding to the raiser by raising again, the original bettor will need a monster hand to be able to continue. If you can put the raiser on a semibluff (he is drawing), then raising might make the original bettor, whose hand might be better than yours) fold, and then the raiser also fold, giving you the pot.

Climbing the Steps

Many poker sites these days are offering some kind of “Steps” tournament program where the final prize is huge. The catch, you have to make it through the steps to get the prize. Now sometimes you’ll be able to buy-in to a higher step than step 1, but that’s usually not recommended, and usually there’s a cutoff at the level you can buy into. So how do you master the steps without having to spend hours on the stairmaster?

The obvious answer is to start at step one. While it may be tempting to skip a few steps to make your trip to the prize quicker, my next point may turn you off to that idea.

See, in the steps programs, the buy-ins generally start off low, but grow exponentially fast. Say step 1 is 1 dollar, step 2 may be 5 dollars. step 3 at 15 and step 4 at 50. Well if you only planned on playing one step four game, then by all means jump into step four. But here is the problem with that. Most of these are turbo poker online SnGs. That’s why I recommend starting at step 1.

With step one, you don’t need as big a bankroll. 30 buy-ins is usually sufficient to keep your progress strong and steady and keep you advancing through the ranks. So which do you prefer, 30 dollars to play 30 step one games, or 1500 to play 30 step 4 games? I thought you’d see it my way when put in that perspective.

The next step in steps is to play all of your bankroll you’ve allocated to the tournament on the first step. This means you’ll be playing 30 step one games, trying to earn as many step 2 tickets as you can. You do this for each step, as the more chances you have at each step, the better protection you have from the variance of these games.

Once you start getting an idea of the competition of each step, you’ll soon find yourself taking down a lot of poker games simply due to your patience to grind out next step tickets instead of jumping right into the next step, losing and being right back at the bottom of the stairwell. Keep the pace, and in less time than you realize, you’ll be securely sitting on a high step instead of grasping for dear life not to fall because you only had one shot at step 6 instead of the 10 you grinded out of your 20 step 5 entries.

Love the Meek and Weak

Poker players generally conform to certain styles of play. Some are always loose and aggressive as a way to intimidate others. There are players who are continually solid rocks who stick to sound A-B-C online poker, only playing premium hands aggressively. These players tend to be predictable though and most often don’t win big pots because no one will call their bets.

The best player to find at your online poker table is the one who is weak and meek. What that means is these players tend to call a lot rather than initiate bets, and even when they do get a hand, they are unlikely to make any big raises. They are always conservative in their calls and bets.

These are typically newcomers to the game, and you won’t find many of them at any one table. But when you do, these players offer good opportunities for you to build pots through their calling, and when they do you beat you, most likely you have not lost many chips to their low bets.

When you do spot someone who is weak and meek, target that player. Be gracious about winning or losing - complimenting the weak one’s play or crediting your own win to random luck.

When there are other savvy and aggressive players at the table, then you must try to add an element of erratic play to your style to chase the aggressive players so you can isolate the weak and meek player at opportune times.

They work by utilizing their training to get inside the heads of these people in order to make them reach their breaking point. The series title refers to the psychological aspect of the job, which is also the focus of the show: getting inside a suspect’s head and discovering the emotional “flashpoint” that triggered the crisis in the first place, with the hope of diffusing the situation safely and using force only as a last resort.

Flashpoint is a new action series highlighting the aspect of life when family and job come into conflict, how one deals with this. A policeman’s lot is not a happy one. In this series a special-operations cop named Ed Lane (Hugh Dillon) blithely telegraphs his sentiments on work-family balance. Ed has a shaved head and an intense face that suggests he has seen a lot of bad things go down in dark places; he probably wears aviator glasses when he sleeps.

The other team exists of Sgt. Gregory Parker (Enrico Colantoni), the field leader of the team. Further in the team are Julianna “Jules” Callaghan (Amy Jo Johnson), Sam Braddock (David Paetkau), who is the new guy on the team. Then there are Lou “Lewis” Young (Mark Taylor), Mike ‘Spike’ Scarlatti (Sergio Di Zio), Kevin ‘Wordy’ Wordsworth (Michael Cram). Also there is Dr. Amanda Luria (Ruth Marshall), she helps the team with their missions but is not a member of the team.

These are the men and women in the Strategic Response Unit who make Toronto safe. The show is based upon the experiences of the real life of the Toronto Police Emergency Task Force. Even if you are not the kind of person that likes cop shows you should watch it because of the intriguing story line, the cast and for many other reasons.

Newcomers Game

poker players tend to specialize in one game among the many varieties that exist in poker. It is good to know the basics for several formats, such as Seven Card Stud, Five Card Draw, Omaha and other casino online games. People who are new to online poker often wonder which game is best for them to play for learning the basic strategies.

Most often the best choice is Texas Hold ‘Em. It is widely available at online poker sites as well as in live action casinos. Hold ‘Em is both simple and complicated at the same time. Unlike Seven Card Stud, players don’t have to be keep track of the cards dealt out to the other players. Omaha is a nine-card game, which is often played more loosely than Hold ‘Em. Newcomers to this game might find the betting action and bank roll swings too intimidating.

Hold ‘Em allows players to focus on poker strategies while learning some of the more subtle nuances of the game, such as reading opponents’ motivations and hands. Limit Hold ‘Em is more friendly to newcomers who want to play a lot of hands since the betting amounts are limited. Often you can see flops for just the cost of one bet in Limit games as opposed to No Limit, where pre-flop betting can be high and loose, chasing most players away from their hands.

Hold ‘Em offers the best opportunity for beginners to gain an understanding of the fundamentals of poker — hand rankings, drawing odds, position and player psychology.
