Poker Pre-School
Poker is a very mathematical game. To be a winning player you do not need a
degree in statistics, but you are going to have to understand a few basic
concepts and be able to apply them. Most of the math you need to learn is
only a bit of division or addition, so this should not prohibit you from
becoming an excellent player.
Even the best poker players in the world have losing sessions. Don't make the
mistake of expecting to win every time you play. Your goal should be to play
to the best of your ability in every session. If you do, the cards and winnings
will take care of themselves as you improve.
Many players make the mistake of judging their poker playing ability based
on the results of each session. Your goal should be to make the best possible
play every time. The closer you come to this, the better your results will be.
Avoiding Tilt
Another meta-skill that should be part of a winning player’s poker strategy is
avoiding tilt. Your opponents will use your emotions against you, but only if
you let them. Emotional play results in poor decisions and lost money.
Tilting and steaming can happen to anyone, and sometimes the only cure is
a break from the game. That’s okay; the game will still be there ten minutes
from now. In fact, it will still be there tomorrow.
Poker Mathematics Basic
Ok, the lecture begins. If you are new to poker, don't skip any chapter. The
basic poker mathematics skills include:
1. Recognizing draws and finding outs
2. Calculate the card odds
3. Calculate the pot odds / implied odds
4. Expectation
