Tilt

Å være på “tilt” betyr at du spiller med hjerte ditt I stedet for hodet og det er noe som skjer med alle fra tid til annen,men det er veldig viktig å begrense hvor ofte det skjer hvis du skal ha suksess i poker. For eksempel hvis du sitter med Dame og Knekt på hånden og floppen kommer opp Ess, Dronning og ti, er det viktig å hvite når du bør folde hvis bettingen blir for heftig. Hvis du er på en “tilt” så ville du calle og raise hele veien for å prøve å få en konge og dermed sikre deg potten, men du ville ikke nødvendigvis tenke på at noen annen kanskje sitter med en flush allerede.

Som regel er det spillere som blir irritert eller mister fokus som mister alle pengen sine ved et bord. Det er helt kritisk i poker å beherske sinnet sitt og nærmest spille som en stein. Det er en rar ting å se profesjonelle poker spillere som vinner store premier, det virker nesten som at de ikke er glad i det hele tatt men det er fordi de har trent seg over mange år å ikke vise noen ansiktstrekk foran sine motspillere, så selv om de vinner millioner klarer de ikke å vise noe. Jeg oppfordrer dere ikke til å bli så ekstrem bare prøv å alltid være i kontroll.

En “bad beat” vil ofte føre til at en spiller går på en tilt siden de da tror at de må nå fortjene litt flaks men poker er sjeldent rettferdig på denne måten. Man kan også gå på en tilt etter at man vinner en hånd men en sånn type tilt varer mye kortere tid pluss man har jo da litt mer penger å tape.

Som en videre eksempel på en tilt viser jeg her en hånd jeg spilte nylig;

Meg – A(kløver), Q(hjerte)

Motstander – ?, ?

Bordet- A(ruter), Q(spade), 2(kløver)

Jeg bettet ved floppen og ble called. Turn kortet var en 10(hjerter), jeg bettet og igjen ble jeg called. River kortet var en 7(hjerter). Igjen bettet jeg og han raiset. Jeg bestemte meg for å calle med tanke på at hand kanskje hadde K,J. Men nei han hadde faktisk 7(kløver) og 7(spade). Idioten hadde faktisk called meg helt opp til river og så hatt flaks med det siste kortet, det var nok til å sende meg på en tilt over de neste par hendene men jeg fikk kvikt kontroll igjen og begynte igjen å spille normalt. En av de beste taktikkene i en sånn situasjon når man føler seg frustrert som jeg gjorde er å hoppe over noen runder eller “sit out” inntill du føler deg klar til å fortsette å spille.

En annen god måte å beherske “bad beats” er å tenke på alle de ganger du har gjort det samme til noen annen 😉

Jeg liker også å høre på litt musikk mens jeg spiller, ikke noe altfor hektisk men noen som får meg til å føle avslappet og glad. Det er forresten en annen god måte å komme over “bad beats” fordi hvis du blir litt deppa kan du bare skifte CD’en som tvinge deg bort fra spillet for en liten stund.

Alt i alt så er det viktig å vite at bad beats kan skje til alle, og at de skjer til alle, bare se på en poker turnering så vil du fort se at selv de beste i verden opplever “bad beats”, MEN det viktige er at du behersker det ellers vil du miste mye penger over de neste hendene mens du er på tilt.

Betting in Poker – Part2

At the end of the first completed betting round then, the action has moved from player A (the player on the dealer’s immediate left) to player B then to player C and so on back to player B. The action ends at player B because he is the last to match all of the previous bets and raises. After the betting round there are three players remaining in contention for the pot. They are players B, C and F and they have each contributed £31, including their antes. Player E contributed £11, but has folded giving him no further claim to the money he has already put in the pot, in the same way players A and D have each lost their £1 ante. Therefore at the end of the betting round there is £106 in the pot.
All of this looks complicated on paper, but in reality it is easy to grasp. But be sure you understand how a betting round works, because the same principle applies to all types of poker game.
It is interesting to note that at this stage in the game in the example above, each player has only seen the cards that were dealt to him and can only guess what the other players have. However, there are clues to what a player’s hand is, and these clues are identified in the bets that the player makes. Several tentative conclusions can be drawn just from the bets alone in this betting round. Firstly player A had a poor hand, so he initially checked and when later he was faced with a bet he folded his cards. Player B initially checked but then called’ a bet and a raise and then subsequently-he called a re-raise, so he must have liked his hand to some extent. Player C made the first bet, called a raise and made a re-raise of his own, so again he must have liked the hand, possibly thinking it to be the best hand at this stage. Player D folded at the first opportunity, so he most probably had ‘a very poor hand. Player E called the initial £10 bet but none of the subsequent raises, so it is possible that he considered his hand to be of moderate value. Player F called the initial £10 bet and then raised £10, so he must have liked his hand, but he only called player Cs final re-raise rather than raising again himself, so he may have had doubts about whether his was the best hand at that stage.
After this first betting round player F, the dealer, then asks the remaining players, starting from the one on his left, how many cards they want to change. By the way, in cases where the dealer h~s folded early in the progress of the hand, he would still continue with the job of dealing and controlling the action. Remember it is the dealer’s job not only to deal the cards, but also to control the action. Each player, when asked, tells the dealer how many cards he wants to exchange. This exchange of cards is called the draw. A player can keep the original five cards, or change up to five (some poker schools allow only a maximum of four to be changed). The dealer exchanges his own cards last and announces how many cards he is changing, e.g. ‘dealer takes three’. He makes this announcement so that the other players know how many cards he is exchanging. It is important that every player knows how many cards each other player has exchanged, because this is another way that one gains information on the strength of an opponent’s hand. An extreme example to illustrate this point is to consider a player who decides to change none of his cards. You could make the reasonable assumption here that the player had a strong hand (you might also think it was possible that the player could have a weak hand and intended to bluff – but this sort of consideration is left for later in the book). By contrast a player who changes all five cards at the draw will undoubtedly have a worthless starting hand. The cards are dealt from .the top of the remaining deck, that is, folded cards are not reincorporated as part of the deck. For this reason, usually draw poker games are limited to seven players to avoid running out of cards. The cards that have been folded are put, by the dealer, into a separate pile beside the pot, and near the centre of the table. These cards are collectively known as the discards or colloquially as ‘the muck’. Thus folded cards are said to have been discarded or mucked.

Poker – Relative Position

Als relative Position bezeichnet man die Position, die man im Vergleich zum Wettenden hat. Im Gegensatz zur absoluten Position, die sich, wie eben besprochen, aus der Position zum Dealer ergibt, kann sich die relative Position im Laufe einer Runde ändern.

Je weniger Spieler hinter einem noch handeln, desto besser, weil man dadurch eher die Möglichkeit hat, die Wettrunde abzuschließen. Man muss sich nicht fragen, ob hinter einem nicht vielleicht noch unangenehme Erhöhungen kommen und man so in die Zange genommen wird. Am besten ist es natürlich, direkt vor dem Wettenden zu sitzen.

Wenn ich selbst die Möglichkeit habe, die Wettrunde als Letzter vor dem ursprünglich Wettenden abzuschließen oder sie durch eine Erhöhung nochmals zu eröffnen, ist das wesentlich besser, da man so in dieser Wettrunde das letzte Wort hat. Das gilt vor allem, wenn die absolute Position schlecht ist, zum Beispiel in der Blind oder in Early-Position.

Lureri

Poker er ikke bare et matematisk spill. Det er også et spill av intenst psykologisk kriging. Tre av de beste våpen i denne krigen er “Bløffing”, “Semi-Bløffing” og “Slowplaying”(altså å spille sakte).

Bløffing

I motsetning til hva de fleste tror er Bløffing nærmest ubrukelig i et lavt nivå spill, for eksempel hvor blind er $2-4 på et “fixed limit” bord. Grunnen til dette er at de fleste mennesker har råd til å gå til showdown på dette nivået så det er liten vits i å prøve å skremme de vekk fra potten. På ett “no limit” bord eller “fixed limit” men høyere innsats kan det være en god ide å Bløffe. Selv da burde du kun Bløffe hvis det kan narre motstanderen inn til å tro at du sitter med kortene i hånden til å fullføre et solid hånd. Et eksempel vill være å bette på floppen hvis et Ess kommer opp, eller å gjøre en raise hvis man kun trenger to kort til å fullføre en flush eller straight.

Semi-Bløffing

Dette er det samme som bløffing bortsett fra at du faktisk sitter med gode kort som kan utvikle seg til en god hånd.

For eksempel:

Hånden din: A, K (hjerter)

På bordet: J, 3 (hjerter), 4(kløver)

A=Ess, K=Konge, Q=Dronning, J=Knekt

Her har du ikke en hånd enda men du sitter med en Ess høy, med muligheten av å få til en flush i hjerter eller få et par av ess eller konger. Altså hvis du satser med denne hånden så er det en bløff siden du ikke har en hånd enda men du har en god sjanse av å få til en hånd. Det er derfor verd å være med og det er mindre risiko en å gjøre en standard bløff. Semi-bløffing er en meget god taktikk, spesielt i no-limit spill.

Slowplaying

“Slowplaying” er å spille saktere en normalt med hensikten av å narrer motstanderen til å tro at hånden din er være en den virkelig er. Tankegangen her er at hvis du var sikker på hånden din ville du raise eller call med en gang. Et eksempel:

Hånden din: K (hjerter), K (kløver)

På bordet: K(ruter), 3 (ruter), 3 (hjerter)

Wow, du floppet et fult hus! Men ikke skrem de andre spillerne vekk ved å satse for mye med en gang, du vil gjerne ha de andre med på potten siden du må ha ekstrem uflaks for at noen slår deg med denne hånden. Det du burde gjøre er å vente til turn eller river før du begynner å virkelig raise potten. Du burde kun slowplay under disse to omstendighetene:

1. Du holder et veldig bra hånd som det er veldig usannsynlig å tape på.

2. Hvis den enneste måten å få litt action fra de andre spillerne er å få noen flere kort kommer på bordet, for eksempel hvis de andre spillerne spiller veldig forsiktig så kan denne taktikken lage de litt mer ambisiøse, men du burde fortsatt sitte med en bra hånd for å gjøre dette.

Betting in Poker – Part1

At the start of the poker session the players cut the cards to decide who will deal first: the person with the lowest value card is the first to deal. The job of dealer in poker is very important, for not only does he shuffle the deck and deal the requisite number of cards to each player, but he is also in charge of the game during the period of the deal. The dealer will ensure that each player acts in his proper turn and puts the right amount of money into the pot. Play starts with the player on the dealer’s immediate left and progresses in a clockwise direction. This means that the dealer enjoys the advantage of being able to bet last. After the first hand has been dealt the role of dealer passes to the player who is sitting on the immediate left of the original dealer and then to each player around the table, again in a clockwise direction, so that all players can enjoy this benefit.

Before the cards are dealt, everyone contributes a small amount to the pot: this is called the ante. This makes sure that there is some money in the pot for the players to fight over at the start of the hand. Once money has entered the pot it can only be taken out again by the winner of that particular hand.

After everyone has anted the dealer shuffles the deck and offers it to the player on his right to cut. Then he deals one card from the top of the deck to each player, starting with the player on his left, dealing clockwise and finishing with himself. He does this five times in all, so that everyone has five cards. It is important that the cards should be cut, because it is one way to reduce the risk of cheating. Sometimes at the start of the session, the players might also cut to determine the seating arrangement, but in most home games people sit where they like at the table. The relative seating positions of players at the table is important for several reasons, some are prosaic but some are tactical.

 

The Betting

The first player to act in a draw poker game is the one to the immediate left of the dealer. His options are to check (meaning to make no bet at this stage) or open if he likes his cards. To indicate a check, players can say ‘check’ or simply tap the table. When betting it is usual to announce the amount you are betting, so everyone is clear about what you are doing. Then the option passes to the next player. Once somebody has opened the betting however, those behind can no longer check. They must fold (throw their cards away and take no further part in the hand), call (put in a sum to equal the bet to stay in the game) or raise (increase the bet). So when a player is calling a bet, he puts in the same amount of money as has already been bet. If he is raising he must say/raise’ and put in the amount of money required to call the bet plus an additional amount of money for the raise. Except when a player is all-in’ (see below for a definition) the amount of his raise must be at least as much as the amount of the bet. So if the bet is £10, the raise must be at least £10. Thus the player making the raise would have to put £20 into the pot, £10 to call the bet and another £10 to raise. All players must have put in the same amount of money in order to stay in the game. In the following example I have kept all of the bets in units of £10, apart from the antes (£1) for simplicity. This would be called a £10 limit game, because the bets are limited to a maximum of £10.
At the beginning of the betting round there is £6 in the pot (made up of a £1 ante from each player). The dealer was player F, meaning that player A is first to act. To begin with players A and B both check, player C opens for £10, so
now all subsequent players must call this £10, raise or fold. Player D folds and thus takes no further part in this hand. Player E calls by matching the £10 bet. Player F raises £10 and to do this he must first match the £10 bet and then put in a further £10 for the raise, making £20 in all. Note that all players must put an equal amount of money after each betting round to remain in contention for the pot. So as Player F has now put £21 in the pot, players A and B are each required to put in £20 (as they have only put in £1 each at this point) in order to stay in the game. However, player C only needs to put in £10 to call (because he has already put in £10). Player A decides to fold, but player B calls the £20. Player C decides to re-raise a further £10, but of course first he puts in the £10 to call, making £20 he puts in at this time. So now all subsequent players must put in the difference to equal the £31 total contribution that player C has made to the pot. Player E, who would have to put in a further £20, decides this is too expensive and folds, player F calls player C’s re-raise of £10, as does player B.

Warum Texas Held’em?

In diesem Website wird fast ausschließlich von Texas Hold’em die Rede sein, weil dies die populärste Form des Pokers ist. Wenn Sie in eine Pokerrunde kommen und Sie wissen vorher nicht, was gespielt wird, so ist es meistens Texas Hold’em, sei es als Turnier oder als Cash-Game, Limit oder No-Limit.

Die Regeln der wichtigsten anderen Pokervarianten werden jedoch beschrieben. Ich habe diejenigen ausgewählt, die meiner Meinung nach am meisten Spaß machen, nämlich Seven-Card-Stud, Omaha High/Low, Draw-Poker und Razz. Über jede dieser Varianten könnte man ein eigenes Buch schreiben. Texas Hold’em Poker ist von den Regeln her sehr leicht zu lernen. Daher werden Sie auch bei dieser Variante die meisten unerfahrenen Spieler antreffen, was natürlich für Sie von Vorteil ist. Ein bekanntes Poker-Sprichwort besagt: »Man braucht nur eine Minute, um Texas Hold’em zu lernen, und ein ganzes Leben, um es zu meistern.« Zudem wird im Fernsehen fast ausschließlich Texas Hold’em Poker übertragen.

Texas Hold’ em ist meiner Ansicht nach auch die aufregendste Form des Pokers. In keiner anderen Variante bekommt man so viel Action geboten. Jede Hand ist anders, und es gibt unendlich viele Möglichkeiren, zu gewinnen oder zu verlieren.

Starting hender

Den første tingen du må forstå når du spiller Texas Hold’em er hvilke hender er gode og hvilken dårlig.

Selv om det kan variere litt med antallet spillere på bordet og typen spill, så presentere jeg her en kort oversikt du burde bruke når du begynner å spille poker og vil gjerne vinne litt penger. Det følgende gjelder for bord med blind bets av $1-2 eller mindre på Texas Hold’em bord med fixed limit.

Hender du burde gjøre en “raise” med:

Disse er de beste hendene du kan få preflop og du burde bruke de til å heve potten før floppen eller tvinge andre spillere til å floppe

AA, KK, QQ, AK, JJ, AQ, TT

Hvor A=Ess, K=Konge, Q=Dame, J=Knekt osv

Hender som er gode nok til å la deg gjøre en “call”:

Hvis du får disse hendene så burde du i hvert fall se floppen før du bestemmer deg å satse mer. Du burde ikke gjøre call på mer en 2 bets med disse hendene.

AJ, KQ, KJ, QJ, JT, T9 (kun hvis samme farve), 99, 88, 77 ,A + en annen kort i samme farve.

Online Payment methods

There are many different types of online payment method available these days, some are fairly well known like PaySafe and others are less well known like Neteller. All the payment methods which I list in this article are solid and are ones you can trust 100%. In any case the majority of these online payment methods let you draw money directly to and from your bank account so you never really keep any money with them they are just a conduit.

You may have noticed that a lot of casinos offer special deposit bonuses if you use these alternative payment methods and the reason for this is that there are sometimes loopholes that mean that a player can complain to their credit card company after a big loss saying they were swindled and sometimes the credit card company can claw the money back from the online casino. As you can well imagine this is not a situation that the online casinos enjoy especially when the vast majority of them are completely above board and honest and for this reason they prefer to loose just a little bit of money through deposit bonuses as opposed to risking all the money by people depositing by credit card. Having said that you can of course still use credit cards to deposit money into your gaming account but hopefully by the end of this article you will see that using online payment methods is easier and makes more sense.

The main online payment methods found at online casinos and poker rooms are Neteller, Moneybookers, PaySafe, ClickandBuy and PayPal. There are of course quite a few more but these are the ones that you will find at most online gaming establishments. Personally I have three separate accounts with Neteller, Moneybookers and PayPal and I haven’t been to an online gaming site recently that doesn’t accept at least one of those payment methods. 

If I was to recommend just one of them then I would probably say Neteller purely because of the options it gives you. In effect it is a proper little bank account kept offshore, you can get a debit account and even a credit card for your account which works in most countries around the world and it has a really clean and easy interface. The support for Neteller used to be quite scrappy but it has improved a lot recently and in any case when has support and banks ever co-existed!

I could go into more details about the various online payment methods and maybe I will in another post but I just wanted to show you all the options out there. In summary I urge you all to open at least one online payment account and start getting those juicy extra bonuses from the online casinos and poker rooms.
