any of you dialed in on dead giveaways? this one guy i play with leans forward with his elbows on the table when he's got a good hand.

1. If you are going to play your hand always raise 3x the big blind.
2. Dont bluff in the begining. I dont consider betting a draw a bluff.
3. Dont consider suited cards a good hand unless they are connected.
4. I always play J 10 it is my magic hand

Although everyone I know loves the hand, I have never won with A K.
Ever.
Guy I used to play with would adjust his cap everytime he had a really good hand and sit up in his seat. He never could figure out why we all would fold when he'd raise.

3x the big blind? that seems a little hefty.

ya AK against reckless players seem to always lose,
I usually bet alot with a AK just to push out those 4 5 hands out there

pocket face cards can kill! beware. if you have pockey ladies and after the flor you have the highest pair still then go big, don't slow play it.
loose sometimes, make yourself out to not be a competitor.
either talk alot all the time and distract people or don't talk at all and watch people.

i've never had much luck with AK either.
i don't have a magic hand. i need one!

more often than not i score trips off some stupie hand like 3 7 offsuit. it's crazy how much it happens.
made me play those fucking hands more than i should cause it seems like everytime i fold 2 3s drop on the board.

I just played on wed and won 2 big pots with A K - KK with top kicker and flopped a straigt.
bingo!

3x the big blind will put you in a heads up or 3 handed situation usually - I always get fuked on the river when I get cute and try to slowplay when there are more that 4 people in the hand.

manage your money...
I always play conservative at first until i learn the people at the table.
If i get my hand at the flop i never bet, i always wait for turn to get people in.
But just manage your money and don't try to make your hand on the river. just fold (on a raise) and wait for good cards to get it back. Unless you think you've covered his bluff/cards
I play on partypoker.net, i'll try fulltilt too

joyride - expand on manage your money a bit... i'd like to know what you do
most people when they get back to even money play REALLY conservative.
i'm usually a little aggressive at the start to try to get in a cheap early win.

it's just knowing what you've got or trying to make. So basically knowing hand odds.

you can tell people that are just bluffing everyhand... on average cards are not that good for someone to win 10 hands in a row. So they are either bluffing or just on a role. If you've got a decent hand call em'. But don't bet more then your willing to lose unless you've got a good hand.
I don't go all in, unless i have my hand. If i'm counting on the river and have like 10 high. Forget it, i'll fold. Always protect what you have
