I love the cash games!
Playing in tournaments is like sipping a fine wine, Playing in cash games is like doing shots of Jack Daniels!
Here are some of my tips for online cash games:
1) Consider playing Limit Cash Games First. You will reduce your risk of
big losses.
A) Beware in many cases you will always get called down to the river
in limit games. You will get sucked out. No worries, you will profit
in the long run and will appreciate your opponents calling you
down!
2) JOIN A RAKE BACK PROGRAM! This is a must! You will be amazed at how
quickly dollars pile up in your account! I use www.raketherake.com -
they are very professional and have great customer service.
3) Plan ahead. Determine first how much money you want to play with.
Don't deviate! Those chips are cash and they can dissapear fast!
4) I have found buying in for about 40 times the BB is a nice number.
(5/10 game buy in $400.00) The minimum I would ever think about
would be 20 times the BB. The key here is to leave
the table once you loose 25 to 30% and never ever stay beyond
a loss of 50%!. In this example you would
want to leave the game if your balance is around $300.00.
Remeber this is for LIMIT Cash Games.
5) Always try to sit to the immediate left of the chip leader (good advice from
Chipless Wonder Thanks!)
6) MOST IMPORTANT: Don't stay too long! Pigs get fat, Hogs get
slaughtered! Don't be a Hog! Be satisifed when your up and leave
a winner. You don't have to make a killing each time! You can come
and go as you please - so just strive to be "up" when you leave. It
will add up quicky over time.
Good Luck!
