Playing in Hold'em, sooner or later, almost every player
develops their own style of play. And this style becomes recognizable. Rivals,
long watching the player begin to read because of its hands on type and value
bets that he does conduct towards opponents and even rates for the duration of
the decision. The player is constantly sticking one tactic, becomes predictable,
and it is the main enemy of success in the game. To remain inconspicuous, you
need to constantly change tactics in the long term, and for each individual
table. Ability to change the style, perhaps, is the most difficult lesson in poker,
but without success in the game is difficult to achieve.
Danger monotonous behavior in the game in the long run:
Each poker room there are players who play often and very
attentive to their rivals. They are not lazy to leave notes on other players,
outlining the details of their style of play. Having played with one player, it
is possible that in the future you will meet with him again. It does not
matter, it will happen one day or six months, but your opponent through your
notes, it is good to know your game and can easily "read" you if your
game tactics remain the same.
Predictability in the game for a particular table:
If you are going to play a long time at the same table, you cannot
stick to one game tactics. Even loose opponents, not to mention tight, you
gradually begin to read from the behavior in the game. What is it dangerous?
When you are in a winning position, opponents will fold, thus you cannot
increase the pot. In the case of whether you have a weak hand, the other
players will do the trick, enticing you to bid or to successfully bluff,
showing a strong hand.
How to stay unpredictable player?
During the game you need to regularly change the behavior.
Desirable alternate loose and tight styles. Which style to choose in each hand
should be resolved based on the situation, bank size and behavior of opponents.
Play strong hands differently as necessary as the flop, and
the next round of betting. For example, getting your hands on AK or other
strong pocket cards in one hand, you can play aggressively on the flop, the
other to make a small increase, and the third call rate opponents. This will
not only remain unpredictable, but also to lure opponents into a trap, without
giving a strong hand.
One of the major mistakes of players is that getting on the flop,
turn or river strong hand, they immediately begin to rise. A couple of times in
these situations, opening your cards, rivals begin to read the strength of your
hand and then will not stay in the auction, which will affect the size of the pot.
In some distributions on the flop, turn and river better check, call or raise
small stakes rivals in other play in the usual way. Different dispensing should
begin to rise at different rounds, but should understand that you can give
rivals improve their hands for a little tender.
Cannot be in every hand, when your strong pocket cards do
not make any combination of the flop, do check and fold when an opponent bets. Seeing
this, some players will put it to use and whenever you check, regardless of
whether they have a strong combination or not. An experienced player, he began
to read your behavior will increasingly enter the trades before the flop, then
to pick up the pot on a bluff. Perhaps in one of the hands you fool opponent
through image building by checking, with a strong hand and then raise his bid. But
most likely opponent folds, and your profit per hand will not cover previous
expenses.
