One of the biggest issues that I encountered when I first got into Hold’em was figuring out what cards to bet on in what Position. Often I would receive burned on a hand that I thought was a very good starting hand. Come to find out they were excellent hands, just not in the position I was wagering them from. Here is really a pretty basic list of what sort of hands to play and what location it’s suitable to play them in. Keep in mind this chart does not factor in raises or suits.
Play From Any Position
AA King, King QQ JJ TT 99 Eight, Eight AK Ace, Queen AJ Ace, Ten King, Queen King, Jack
Bet on Mid to Late Location
Six, Six Five, Five KT Queen, Jack Queen, Ten JT
Bet on in Late Location Only
A9 A8 A7 King, Nine K8 Queen, Nine J9 J8 Ten, Nine T8 98 Nine, Seven
If you are just starting to bet on poker, betting these hands at the suggested positions will aid you often be in a safe placement prior to the flop. As your game progresses, you’ll be able to add far more hands to this list and know how to bet on them in specific situations. If you are just starting to play cards, I would recommend wagering for nickels and dimes at home or for absolutely free at a web-based poker site. Poker sites are nice because you have to see numerous more hands per hour than you do at home. A number of goods sites to wager on for free of cost are UltimateBet and PartyPoker.com.
