There are some basic rules that you need to follow while playing
with the game of poker. Usually players who are experts at playing poker
don't make decisions in haste. They instead act as crooks and play a
safe game while using the poker chips. They won't play a speedy game but
will act wisely and play a slow game thus taking decisions that are
slow but will indeed help them in the long run.
Do not expect luck
to favor you in the initial stages of the game. You have to help
yourself and have to be smart enough to take your own decisions in the
start. Do not simply put money in the pot unless you're 100 percent sure
that you are the one who's going to win the hand. Remember that you
have to be very shrewd during this part of the game and your foolishness
can lead you to loss. If you think you are going to loose then don't
waste your money in that.
Do not have pride while you are playing
the game at the poker tables because being aggressive and developing
rivalries while you play can lead to a disaster, that is you will erode
your own cash. Be humble and have a friendly nature that is pleasing. In
this way you will save as well as collect some money too. One has to
even pretend to be calm and cool at the poker tables.
