We will still be playing Texas Holdem Poker very tight. We will be investing in hands where we stand a greater chance to win and fold those where we have little or no chance to win.
My intermediate Texas Holdem Poker strategy introduces additional powerful hands into your Texas Holdem Poker arsenal.
The hands that we will be adding to our playable Texas Holdem Poker hands are:
K-Js (the s means suited ex King of clubs and Jack of clubs), A-10s, A-Q, K-Q, 7-7, 6-6, 5-5, 4-4, 3-3, 2-2.
We are also playing the hands which we learned earlier. Those are:
A-A, K-K, Q-Q, J-J, 10-10, 9-9, 8-8, A-Ks (the s means that both cards are the same suit – both clubs), A-Qs, K-Qs.
These additional starting hands will allow you to play more hands in Texas Holdem Poker.
You must resist the temptation to play starting hands outside of the best beginner and intermediate starting hands.
If you have one of the best hands, I recommend that you raise your opponents. A raise does a couple of things for you.
- tells you who else may have a strong hand (If they re-raise)
- forces a player with a bad hand to fold
- gets more money into the pot |
