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
If an Ace hits the flop
If an Ace hits the flop don't panic. Your opponent may hate the Ace as much as you do. Always watch your opponents' face as the flop comes out, not the cards. Look for signs that he likes or dislikes the flop.
If his eyes go quickly to his chips
If his eyes go quickly to his chips he probably likes the flop. If he starts to eye your chips and looks like he is counting them, he probably loved the flop.
