Table Types and Starting Hands
Look at the chart in Appendix II to see what your starting hands should be
against a certain number of opponents. The chart gives the winning
percentages of every two starting hands against up to nine opponents. I
believe this chart should indicate when it is appropriate to make a pre-flop
raise and in what position.
Once again, big Pocket Pairs have the best chance against one or two
opponents and goes down to almost a 50/50 gamble from there. I like having
above a 60% chance of winning a hand, especially in no limit when my
whole stack is in danger. Raising with big cards is optimal. In high stakes
play you will not get as many people calling your raise (sometimes it is
correct to slow play a big Pocket Pair if you are going to get only one or two
callers or is it is at an extremely tight table), but in low stakes poker you will
often have many opponents calling almost anything.
This next section deals with game types since this will determine how you
play your cards. You can look for two different situations. If the table is
loose and players regularly call large pre-flop raises or tight and most
players fold. Knowing your table dynamics and the individual play of each
opponent is one of the most important edges that will help you take home
more money in your poker career.
