How to Win at Heads Up Poker When Playing Online
By Steve Hill
Steve Hill Loves to Play Online Poker
I am somebody who loves to play online poker. It is more about the enjoyment and the relaxation than about attempting to gain financially. It goes without saying that it is always good to win and if you can make some money from playing a game that you enjoy then it's a massive bonus. I usually play on the five-man tables where the first two get paid out. My aim is to reach the "heads up" stage by playing as "tight" as I can. If I can get into the final two I feel that I have a seventy percent chance of winning the tournament as I then change my poker strategy from playing tight to playing aggressively.
But He Was a Poor Poker Player When It Came To Heads Up Play
I used to be a very poor "heads up" player as I would often get bullied out of the majority of the hands. I realised that I had to learn a new way of playing in the final stage of a poker tournament as what I was currently doing was not working.
Then He Figured Out This Online Poker Strategy
I soon learned that I needed to be the aggressor, the poker bully if you like. Instead of folding the majority of hands I now play, on average, ninety-five percent of them. I raise the pot with any ace, king, queen or Jack and raise all in with any two picture cards or when I am dealt an ace with a picture card.
Now He Wins More Pots
By doing this I win a lot of the pots by default and if the other player chooses to call I believe I have a great chance of winning the hand. Just limping in can lead to all sorts of problems/decisions. Make it easy on yourself and your brain by being decisive early on. You will lose from time to time, that has to be expected, but by playing in this way has enabled me to win 70% of the heads up games that I have played in the last three months. I hope these tips work as well for you as they have for me.
