No Limit Holdem.

[vegas40]

First off, this strategy is specific to a particular game – online low stakes No Limit Holdem.

Because of the peculiar conditions in these games, I am going to question some of the traditional strategy advice you will read in books and on other strategy sites. Other strategies out there are technically superior and I make no apology for that. Where I believe this strategy is better for you, is that it acknowledges that we are not all perfect players, that we are prone to tilt when losing, and that many of us have limited bankrolls.

This strategy is therefore not optimal in terms of possible profit. It is designed to make a steady profit with a level of variance that small bankrolls can safely absorb, and which will not cause episodes of tilt.

To get the most from this strategy you need to have made a basic study of the game. You should understand the rules, and terms such as pot odds, implied odds, drawing hands, pocket pairs, sets, etc. If you do not know what any term in this strategy mean, then read the basic poker strategy sections of this website first.

Finally this is a strategy on which to base your game. It isn’t the end of the story. You can adapt and improve upon it as you gain experience, and to fit your own skills and profile.
