			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Before you start playing poker online, there are several common used terms in poker you may want to understand. Not only will understanding these terms makes playing poker online a lot more enjoyable, you can also understand different poker strategies and make the right decision easily once you get to know the basic betting terms. Let’s look into some of the commonly used terms, shall we?</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pokerblogtv.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/article-page-main-ehow-images-a07-ot-fm-tricks-win-big-slot-machines-800x800.jpg"><img src="http://www.pokerblogtv.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/article-page-main-ehow-images-a07-ot-fm-tricks-win-big-slot-machines-800x800.jpg" alt="" title="article-page-main-ehow-images-a07-ot-fm-tricks-win-big-slot-machines-800x800" width="225" height="220" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-35" /></a></p>
<p>Buy-in would be the first term you should understand. As you approach a poker table, you have to pay certain buy-in nominal to enter the game. Different poker tables – or online poker room if you are playing online – have different predetermined amount of buy-in.</p>
<p>Another common betting term is blind. All tables have blinds, mainly small blind and big blind. If you are playing Texas Hold’em poker, for example, two players must pay small blind and big blind respectively. Make sure you approach poker tables with blinds you can afford based on the poker bankroll you have, because they highly represent the actual stake of that particular table.</p>
<p>Call is when you agree to meet your opponents’ bets, while raise or bump is when you raise the bet. If you are raising the bet, other opponents will have to call the bet in order to stay in the game. They can also re-raise you by a certain amount, forcing you to at least call the new bet if you want to keep playing. Make sure you think twice and assess the relative strength of your hand before you call, raise, or re-raise the bet to keep the risks minimum.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have to say, my personal favorite poker term is “on tilt”. Being on tilt means you are playing emotionally or under heavy stress. It is exactly the kind of situation you want to avoid if you want to stay profitable playing poker.</p>
<p>When you are on tilt, it is extremely hard for you to make cool, calculated, decision. This is because you are simply under heavy emotional stress and you are acting emotionally instead of logically. It is only expected that you make a lot of bad calls and lose even more money in the process.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pokerblogtv.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/pokerrr.jpg"><img src="http://www.pokerblogtv.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/pokerrr.jpg" alt="" title="pokerrr" width="253" height="199" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-38" /></a></p>
<p>The best way to go when you realize that you are on tilt is to leave the game and refresh. If you are on tilt after a series of bad beats, you need to reassure yourself that all the previous losses can be recovered later on. Simply walk away and refresh before you return to the table and continue playing. You can even call it a day and get some rest in order to cool down and remove all those emotional clouds.</p>
<p>Don’t get me wrong, you can also be on tilt after a series of large victories. You may feel invincible, leading you to calling bets even when you know you have nothing to play. This is why understanding the hazards of being on tilt and knowing how to exit the game when you are in that state essentially important. You can easily avoid losing your hard earned winnings by knowing how to exit the game.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Even when you are good at playing poker at brick and mortar poker rooms, engaging online poker playing experiences will take some adjusting. This is because several aspects of the game are quite different with online poker compared to offline version of the game. Here are several aspects you need to understand about online poker before you start playing online.</p>
<p>First of all, you can’t really read tells when you play online. The only way you can catch tells emitted by your opponents is by placing probe bets and paying close attention to their betting patterns. This is the first thing you need to adjust to; get used to reading betting patterns of your opponents in order to stay ahead of the game.</p>
<p>Betting must also be approached differently when you play online. The first thing you will notice right away about online poker players is their betting pattern; they are generally braver and more of risk takers when it comes to placing bets. You will regularly see pre-flop all-ins when playing online. Make sure you stick to your risk management strategy in order to avoid unwanted bad beats.</p>
<p>Last but not least, make sure you can adjust to the new poker playing environment. Since you are playing online, you will be playing from the comfort of your house. You need to get used to maintaining focus while playing from home if your primary goal is to stay profitable in poker. Other adjustments may still be required, but other than these three you have nothing to worry about.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One of the biggest aspects of poker is bluffing. Even top players are using bluffs as part of their poker strategy whenever they play poker. Understanding the art of bluffing can surely help you be much more profitable in poker. Since bluffing is quite important, we are going to go through the basics of bluffing in this article.</p>
<p>The first thing you should keep in mind is never to bluff just for bluffing sake. Bluffing too often must also be avoided, since it will only make it easier for your opponents to read through your bluffs. Time your bluff carefully and make sure to bluff only when the time is right.</p>
<p>Since we are talking about never to bluff just for bluffing sake, it is also important to make sure that your hand has relatively good chance of winning the round. Bluffing with nothing can be an effective strategy if the relative strengths of your opponents’ hands are also low, but any opponent with solid hand will not hesitate and call your empty bluff right away.</p>
<p>If you play online, bluffing is a strategy you want to use carefully. Many online players don’t really think twice and will call your bluff even with nothing. That is why you need to make sure that you have relatively good hand before you bluff.</p>
<p>Assess the situation properly and raise the bet with confident. Avoid emitting tells and be confident about your bluff to push your opponents into folding. You’ll take the pot money easily this way.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Unless you plan on adopting loose poker playing style, the best way to approach the game of poker is to choose hands you want to play carefully. You will be surprised to know just how much more profitable you can be by applying this very simple tip. Want to know more about how to choose poker hands to play? Let’s discuss this poker strategy in this article.</p>
<p>The worst hand to play in poker is of course unsuited 2-7; 3-8 and 4-9 are considered similar due to the fact that you cannot make a Straight or Flush draw with those starting hands. If you have this type of hand, it would be best to fold right away and limit your risks.</p>
<p>Mediocre hands such as suited 4-6 can be played, but you should always manage your risks properly. If the stake is too high to cope with, don’t hesitate to fold. If you can, push through seeing the flop and possibly the turn and see if you have any possible draw with that hand.</p>
<p>Top hands such as pocket pair of Aces can be played with confident, but you may want to consider slow playing the hand to lure your opponents into increasing the pot size willingly. You will be also limiting your risks this way; keep in mind that anything can happen in poker and your pocket rockets can be defeated with two pairs easily.</p>
<p>You should probably be able to see the importance of choosing starting hands to play, so do your best and progress carefully.</p>
