When are You Going to Understand that Holdem Poker is All About Position!

[ English ]

I’ve been wagering poker now for about five years, I’ve bet cards my entire life starting with games of Gin Rummy for pennies with my Grand Mother, to all of the various types of Brag and basic random games such as Go Fish, Crash and one so beautifully called, card on head casino game. I used to often win, whatever game we were playing and although I liked to call it skill, it was extremely tough to justify considering the randomness of the games we were wagering, so I was over joyed to accept I was having a long-term run of good fortune.

Then came Poker, or far more importantly Holdem Poker, made famous by a bunch of Texas card gamblers in the 60’s and since developed into one of the largest card phenomena ever experienced. Poker is totally the new black, it really is uber awesome with numerous of the world’s leading super stars racing to have their name connected with it. Just a quick scan via the TV channels these days and you are able to not escape from poker, and of course there’s the fabled WSOP, the Holy Grail and Mecca all combined into one for every individual gambler.

So with all of this new discovered recognition, with so numerous Television shows devoted to poker, and magazine and book shelves filled up with high quality material written by the foremost minds on poker, when are persons going to learn that this casino game is all about position!?

Perhaps I must not receive so worked up about this, after all the a lot more individuals who wrestle with the delicate tactics and approaches needed for succeeding consistently at Hold em, the far better it is for everyone else, appropriate? I mean, if they can’t be troubled to look at all of the available info about why location is so critical, why must we bother? We really should just be happy there is another fish at the table!

It’s true, we ought to not reward laziness with advice and guide. However, I liken this to a friendly game of football. Naturally the levels aren’t so high, except when you observe a gambler having difficulties, you help them, offer them several advice, ultimately showing them a way to enjoy, like and appreciate the casino game as much as you. I am asking all house players to do a similar thing with their poker friends who have not quite grasped the subtleties of wagering position. Aid them to grow their respect for the casino game. Naturally, don’t attempt to try this one in your neighborhood betting house, the sharks won’t take pleasure in you instructing their lunch how to swim!
