Stick to the Strategy

* Transcription

Thank God it’s Monday!™ Poker, for those at the highest level, is more than a game of luck. Though luck clearly plays its role, a good player has a strategy—a system they have developed and that they follow. When dealt a pair of aces, chances are you’ll play. When dealt a 7 and a 2, the cards are mucked immediately. But then comes the flop: 7, 7, 2. If you’d held the other cards, you’d have a full house!

Frustrated? Of course. But a professional wouldn’t be. A good player knows they played the hand correctly. They know they’ll get hurt in the long run if they consistently play those lowly hands. They’re not bothered by the missed opportunity.

So chances are, once in a while you are going to miss your ‘full house.’ And chances are you’ll be a bit frustrated. But realize that proper technique and strategy pay off long term. Move on to the next big hand.

Have a great Monday!
