How to Improve Your Game
So you want to be a big shot, you load up your bankroll and head to the closest casino on your horizon. Once there you walk the house halls and start playing at the tables. You spin the wheels clinking loudly with excitement. You hear the tinkling of chips on the tables and the ching-ching-ching of dice in the roulette wheel.omewhere in there you realize that you are suddenly well up on your schedule. It's time to move up a level.
If you're a beginner you may feel pressure to advance to the next level. Remember, poker is a game of skill. You may feel pressure. But moving up a level is entirely up to you. If your bankroll can stand it you will move up. If you don't feel pressure, why not wait a little longer and pick out a better site. A great online poker site can offer you a great deal of security as well as a nice little bonus.
Two Ways to Improve Your Game
There are a lot of ways to improve your game. You can read books by the pros or check out different poker websites and see what they have to say. Often times though, hidden within the information are instructions on how to improve your game. Often times these are released not in print, but in a specialised online poker site. Instantly you have a few methods of brightening your poker knowledge.
Another good idea is to watch tournaments at different sites. See how the players fare at a particular table. This might shed some light on how you are performing, and cause you to practise or improve your game. It will also keep you motivated to work harder at mastering your poker skills.
Your jet-set lifestyle can be shattered by a few bad hands and quickly becomes a grinding failure. Suddenly a small triumph is not as enjoyable as it once was. The best way to handle this is to take a quick peek at where you are at, and where you want to be, before you move to take a big leap.
There is a big difference between moving up a level in poker and moving a whole lot of money to a higher level. When you move up a level, you must do so with a whole lot more care, all of your poker dough (Made in America and other countries) and a whole lot more time. Take a little vacation before you move up, fill you pockets with free food, hotel it for a few nights in a hotel you won't complain about. After this planned mini-vacation, see you at the next tournament.
Remember to start small. Even if you are an experienced player and are good at picking up pots and watching your opponents, you can still lose a few hands in a row. And what good does it do if you can't back it up with a tournament win? You might win a tournament one time. But if you keep moving up, you will keep taking home bigger and bigger pots.
So you are probably wondering, how do I move up a level?
The answer is, you have to earn it. If you are a casual player, you might worry a bit before taking the plunge and playing the $1 tournaments. But if you are a realatemale player, you are probably realizing there is a lot of money to be made in these tournaments. And in all likelihood, you really aren't that concerned about the 1 or 2 big tickets if I can help it, in the long run.
Besides, even if you are a afapoker junkie, you probably have enough self control to avoid the 2 big tickets. (versus the 20 small ones we discussed earlier) So the prize pool may be a bigger piece of cake than you'd hoped for. (and you'll be able to clear it quicker)
So why not clear the $1,200 fee in a single night. You'll get some great practice, you'll have some interesting experience, and you'll at least have some fun taking down some awesome rebuys from the poker junkies. Just try it, please.
Clearing your online poker tournament jackpot.
During your mini-vacation, rake in some cash winnings. We recommend using an online poker tournament incentive such as a free entry to a big multi-table tournament (MTT). Deal a few modest favors for other players in the tournament to gain entry into the big game. When your withdraw, reduce the amount of rake(especially if it's a multiple of your deposit) by 10% or 100%. This helps you get your bonus(s) quicker and might clear them quicker than if you'd tried to earn them yourself. Bonus earning in poker is easier to do than actual earn. Bonus earning in poker is a game-within-a-game. You're not playing against the pros. You're playing against the other amateurs who are playing for free.
