Poker Psychology

Every day billions of words have been written about the game of poker,how to win a poker game, when to quit, skill vs. luck, but not least about how to win at the game. When you start a game of poker you need to know two very important things: first you must know the playing styles of your opponents and second is the ability to understanding the perception the other players have about you.

I can say that when you have the ability to reading another poker players hand is one of the key skills to success.

Let us start with psychology of losing, one of the best qualities of a poker player is patience .In a live poker game you must behave as normal and natural even if you win or lose, I saw many people who suddenly changed appearance when they lost. It is uncomfortable. But you must resist, in those moments you will have some reactions that you can not control if you do not know how to lose (your stomach churn, changes your blood pressure, constricts thousands of muscles and causes physical and mental anguish).

Most important is to staying focused this is probably something that every player wishes they could do better. Is not good to worry about psyching out other players, make sure you can control your own mind.

Everybody wants to play poker well, but poker is not just about playing well, it is about not making mistakes. A poker player who plays for 12 hours without high breaks and without making a mistake is really a good poker player.

Speaking in a poker game for other players can be bothered, you must understand that in a poker game some talking is okay, but remember,not conversation. When you fold, do not tell anyone what you had until the game is over.

If I think better, personally I did not start to win until I made a very difficult and important change to my playing style. Someone teach me to change my style of play every time I play poker, after many years I realized that is a good thing, by changing my game and playing more hands it is much harder for my opponents to get a read on my style and my bluffs have become more effective, I advise you to not be addicted to this trick are other more important.

Is need to talk about glasses? yes. Those who wear sunglasses leave almost no chance for anybody to read their emotions or gestures that result from expression of the eyes.

Let us say you are my opponent in a poker game and I wear sunglasses, is very hard for you to read my facial expressions at the same time you do not know what I looking. This trick is used widely by modern poker players .

Many people believe that sunglasses should be banned at casinos I do not think this little thing is that bad. Even if a poker player wearing sunglasses it can not be completely masked, his voice can not be masked also movements and gestures.

In my opinion you should not wear sunglasses you must be very relaxed and have very much patience, even if you need to fold ten times in a row, all you have to do is to waiting for the best hand.

Suppose you play 12 hours at the table be vigilant! 12 hours to play poker is not much time. Johnny Moss and Nick the Greek Dandolos they played 5 months at the poker table in 1949 without stopping taking only a break for a few hours to sleep, nobody could repeat it. When you staying at the table be vigilant, always.

Finally, learn from mistakes and not repeat them, the best advantages of a poker player are psychology, strategy and statistics.
