If you’ve ever played seven-card stud, you know that medium pairs, such as eights and nines, can be a profitable way to start. But these small pairs are much less profitable in Hold’em and can actually lose money. That’s because, if ANY higher card hits the board, it’s likely that an opponent has made a pair of that rank by using just one card!
In Hold’em it’s harder to catch up to an opponent than it is in seven-card stud. In seven-card stud, you might start with a pair of sevens against your opponents pair of nines. Then you might catch a pair of kings to win. But in Hold’em, if you catch a pair of kings to go with your pair, it’s on the communal board and you BOTH improved to kings up. So, don’t get excited by what you see on the board, unless it helps you SPECIFICALLY.
You need to be very selective about the cards you start with in the early positions in Hold’em. The powerful advantage for your opponents of being able to act after you (what we call “positional advantage”) remains through all rounds of betting after the first. This means that beginners should only play their premium hands when they’re first to act after the blinds — hands like ace-ace, king-king, and ace-king. And you won’t get those very often. So, usually, you’ll simply fold early.

Money management. Don’t play above your comfort zone.
Fit or fold! If the flop doesn’t hit your hand or have some sort of way to use it or hinders it, FOLD! Two black aces into a heart flop of 8-9-10 with lots of betting and raising must be mucked! A-K has to generally be folded if
the flop contains neither an ace or a king.
Play happy, not when you are tired, sad, pissed off, bored, etc. If you can’t be fun to play with, don’t play!When you have a crap hand, fold faster than Superman on laundry day.
Don’t pretend that your some big time poker player unless you have the bankroll to back it up. The experts agree that you should start with at least 50 times the table limit.
When the time arrives that you’re holding the unbeatable hand, remember Nicholas Cage in Honeymoon in Vegas and make sure you make the players pay dearly to see it.
The first 5/7 cards you receive will be the foundation of your hand. Build your strategy around these. You’re not likely to better your opening hand. I believe that the odds of improving your hand on the draw are about even.
You’ll soon discover whom the strong players are at the table. As tempting as it is, try to resist the temptation of trying to beat them at risk of losing sight of the other aspects of your game. You’ll lose big time if you’re not lucky. If you’re lucky enough to win, it’ll hardly be worth the effort.
We’re talking real poker here, not video poker, so remember you’re not trying to impress the change lady by getting the highest hand. Your goal is to be holding a better hand than your opponents. When everyone else is frightened off by your superior play, the pot is yours.
Commit this to memory: If you can’t beat the other hands, don’t join them, fold and live to play another day. The table will always be ready when you are.
Above all else, try to have fun.
