When it comes down to questions we have a lot of poker strategy answers. The general consensus with the non poker playing world is that poker is a game of luck. Those who have played the game and understand it, understand it’s a game of skill. Players have to be able to read a board, understand math, understand psychology, all while attempting to make the best hand. While its true that the cards you’re holding don’t determine if you will or will not win the hand (unless you’re playing with someone who doesn’t know how to play, in which case the only thing that matters is the cards you’re holding) its important not to be making moves that will cost you money in the long run.

Yeah, you can bluff your opponent and pick up a pot here and there but sooner or later they will call you. It’s important to pick your spots. If you bluff too much, you’re just throwing away chips. If you keep chasing straights and flushes, you’re throwing away chips. Pick your spots wisely.

So what’s the most important element in poker strategy? Knowing the types of players you are up against. You can learn a lot about a person by watching them play. Notice their hand selection, keep track of whether or not they like to chase, like to play certain hands, etc. People are creatures of habit. Even professional poker players have “favorite” hands they like to play. Granted, the pro is more disciplined about when they’ll play a favorite hand, and have a variety of different ways to play each hand, but they are still creatures of habit. It’s inevitable that a pro will have a certain underlying strategy in which they approach the game.
