Master the art of bet-sizing

Posted on 21 January 2010 by Samantha

Master the art of bet-sizing and your poker game will improve in leaps and bounds.  Its not good enough to just bet, check or call, you aint gonna get anywhere.  The skill is in the amount of your bet.  Think “How much am I going to bet?”

Every time you decide to bet, ask yourself immediately, “How much?”  That way you wont just bet, you will use the size of the bet to your advantage.  Bet-sizing gives you the leverage to out play your opponents.  And, the best way to learn is by playing a lot of poker hands, grinding it out.  You’ve got to get that feel for what your opponents can take, what will push them off, how you can get that pay-off.

Think before you act!
