Tournament Strategies
After receiving pocket cards, you are immediately faced with a choice: play your cards and either raise or call the blinds, or fold.
Practice Matters
Under cut to about half portion above break, shuffle
Under cut to about half portion above break, shuffle off to break, run two, in-jog running, say, seventeen, out-jog and shuffle off. Under cut to in-jog and throw on top. Under cut to out-jog, run seven and throw balance on top.
This action places two of the selected cards the ninth
This action places two of the selected cards the ninth and tenth from the top, and the other two the eighteenth and nineteenth. Now, ladies and gentlemen, I have doubtless quite satisfied you, and most certainly myself, that the four cards drawn, including the particular one thought of, are hopelessly lost in the shuffle but before attempting to read the mind of the gentleman who is so kindly assisting me in the experiment, I wish to be assured that he has got the card firmly established in his memory. Please watch these cards as I expose them.
