Winning Poker Home Games
winning poker home games
Have you ever thought this before? Poker thoughts?
Ive been playing a lot online recently and i been learning a lot about poker, and as i start to learn more i realize that other people i play with don't know as much, therefore giving me the advantage? Seemingly not! because if i go to a home game with a bunch of people who just know the very basics i won't always win, because strategy does not work against those types of guys. SO really what does it mean being that much better when if pitted against 9 newbies you probably wouldn't win? lol just a weird though i had, any one else though the same before?
thats also my argument for not playing micro limit poker online! because you got so many donks strategy goes out the window.

Your thought is absolutely wrong. People who suck will agree with you, but they are wrong too. Beating game full of junk players is so easy it's ridiculous. I used to play a little tournament (10 people or less) with a group of friends every week, and won every single time I played until they more or less asked me to stop coming. I can guarantee you that any above average poker player will have an ROI (return on investment) of 2-5 times their normal ROI playing against a bunch of crap player.
Anyway, Doyle Brunson addressed playing very bad players with one thought in Super Systems, because that's all you needed to know. He said: Play it straight. What does that mean? That means don't trying any funny bluffs or complicated moves. Weak players don't know what to throw away and what to keep, and trying to bluff them off their baby pairs is a waste of time. Raise with good starting hands, bet when you hit something. Check-fold everything else. Play a little looser than you would against good players (unless you're a LAG, in which case you might want to play a little tighter), and don't be afraid of betting middle pairs and having people call you down. Just remember to check it down on the river in position with mediocre hands if there's someone at the table that thinks they know how to "slow play."
But seriously, beating "newbies" is really, really easy. Don't make it harder than it needs to be and you'll destroy them pretty much every time you play.
