Exclamation Top 10 mistakes 9-18

Im only going to post one mistake a day, but the spoiler will be at the bottom for those who cant be patient.

MISTAKE #10: 9-18-07

Playing Too Many Hands
Most pokerplayers are too loose with their starting hand selection. You've got to stick with PREMIUM hands... especially when you're at a 8-man or 10-man table. Quit limping in with bad cards in hopes of hitting something on the flop. All those blinds add up... and it's not worth it. At an 8-player table, focus on playing hands like pocket pairs, suited connectors, A-X suited, or two face cards. Leave hands like K-3, J-8, Q-2, and 10-7 alone. Just fold them pre-flop. The REASON most people play too many hands is because they want ACTION. They don't want to just sit and there and wait forever until they get good cards.

But if you want to win, you must be patient. In fact... if you're playing good poker, you should often be bored. That's right: BORED.
