The chip leader
September 28, 2008
It is very nice to feel like the chip leader. You have the most chips at the table and you can bully anyone at any point in the game. Even though you are the chip leader, you still have to keep in mind some techniques so that you do not lose your stronghold at the table. Listen to some of my tips so that you will be able to keep that lead and eventually win the poker match.
When you are the chip leader at the poker table, you deserve to take it easy for awhile. One of the strategies of the chip leader in poker is to cruise. What do I mean when I say cruise? When you are the chip leader, you do not have to play as many hands as possible, instead, you only have to play the best hands possible. Since you have the chip lead, all you have to do is allow your blinds to be taken unless the blinds are big. You should only play when you have really nice cards. What happens if you continue playing like before? The chances that someone else at the poker table will get your chips will be high. If you keep playing the normal hands, the others may have a chance to pounce at the opportunity when they can. Once in a while, they will be able to get a good hand and they will chip away your lead slowly. So what should you do? You should simply take it easy and cruise. You should allow your opponents to battle each other out first before a worthy opponent comes your way.
Another strategy of the chip leader is the big bully strategy. What do you do when you are a big bully? You take away the little guy’s lunch money. When you are the big bully at the table, you can bully the others. When there is a hand, you can easily put the guy all in. When your opponent is in an all in situation, he or she will certainly think twice about going against you. He or she will be knocked out with one wrong move. In this case, if you are the bully, you can intimidate anyone on the table. You will be able to scare them off even if you do not have any cards. You will be able to get them out of their game.
Being the chip leader at the table is certainly very nice. You have to learn how to play like the chip leader though. If you are the chip leader, make sure that you keep that lead. It is very wasteful to be the chip leader and end up losing the game in the end. If you are the chip leader, make sure it stays that way until the very end. The strategies and tips that you have just read are certainly very useful. If you want to make sure that you end up being the winner then you have to keep your heads up and learn how to cruise and bully.

Wounded in battle
September 8, 2008
There are some times in poker where you will be hit hard by an opponent. For example, if you bet three fourths of your chips and then you end up losing them to a five card combination while you only had a triplet. If you have triplets then there should have been some level of confidence in you although you were still knocked out. The deepest wounds in poker are those where you fought valiantly. These are the wounds that were caused by thinking that you had something but someone had something better. In poker, what is important is to get up from your fall and to fight back. Your wounds will heal later on but what is important is that you fight back and get up.
What are the ways where you can fight back from a big fall? One of the things that you should keep in mind is not to steam up. What do I mean by this? When you steam up after a fall in battle, you are emotional and you are enraged. You are like a train that is going at full speed. You will feel like you want to take out everyone. In this state of mind, you are almost irrational. All you are thinking about will not help you get back into the match. When you are steaming, you have tendencies to go all in on really strange hands. Even if you have a three and a nine that are off suit, you might even go all in. At this point, your wounds are so deep that you may not even feel like winning anymore. Yet this is not the attitude that you should be taking. You should be willing to fight until you are knocked out. When you suffer a huge wound in battle, do not steam up, do not get angry, and do not do irrational things. Just calm down and accept the wound and the blow as it is. Give it some time so that you can return to normal.
Another thing that you should keep in mind is to try to get back in the game. You are not yet out and you still have a chance to get back in. How should you get back in the game? After your big blow or your big wound in battle, you have to make sure that you are aggressive enough to get back your chips. If you are overly aggressive or if you are steaming then you might end up losing all your chips. You need to have the right amount of aggressiveness when you are playing poker after a big blow. You can not be cruising like the chip leader and you can not be just a little bit off the edge like the normal players. You are catching up. You are trying to get back in the game. You have to do everything in your power to catch up in terms of chip count or else you will be history soon. If the blinds are getting pretty big already, you better make your move fast.
