Poker Strategy - Overview

Poker as a game of skill and luck needs the players to use a good strategy when they want to be successfull. A basic strategic element is for example that you make good use of your position. Acting in position post-flop is a big advantage and good players know how to use this.

Our poker strategy section is organized like this:

• Limit Holdem Fullring Strategy
  ( you learn how to play in Limit Holdem games where 7 - 10 players are at the table )
• Limit Holdem 6-max Strategy
  ( you learn how to beat Limit Holdem games with 3 - 6 players. The game here is more aggressive and the variance is higher)
• No-Limit Holdem Fullring Strategy
  ( we use the Big Stack strategy to dominate these tables)
• No-Limit Holdem 6-max Strategy
  ( again the more aggressive variation of the game which is very popular at weaker players)
• Sit&Go Tournament Strategy
  ( includes normal SNG's where 3 players are getting a price and Double or Nothing SNG's where 5 players are paid)
• MultiTable Tournaments
  ( includes Freezout and Rebuy Tournament types and Satellites)

All our articles are supported by hand analysis articles where we examine real hands from online practice.
