Online poker strategy is a hot topic across the Internet considering that the explosion of poker’s popularity within the past decade. Since the inception of televised poker (most notably by ESPN), online gambling web pages have invested millions of dollars’ worth of advertising on tv networks for the sole purpose of luring poker aficionados to their sites. While advertising for online gambling is just not legal in several states, these poker websites effortlessly sidestep the legality by advertising “for fun” sites where customers cannot use their own money, with a near-identical domain name registered for actual monetary commitment nearby. As a result, online poker draws countless new customers each day and fortunes are won and lost at Internet card tables.
Like any form of entertainment, online poker has experts ready to sell their secrets to the highest bidders. Professional poker players have published lots of books filled with their advice and bookstores are already quick to follow suit, dedicating valuable shelf space to these online guides. Online poker strategy isn’t terribly distinctive from that of table poker, and a novice player will benefit from the tactics of both online and table poker books.
Much of the strategy behind winning consistently at poker is determined by the mathematics of the game. As a player has no real way to understand what cards his opponent is holding, there’s absolutely no 100% effective outcome for poker players (hence the term, gambling). In contrast, knowing the math behind the poker shall allow the player to understand situations where calling or folding, based on nothing though the odds of the game, is within his or her best interest.
All of the math behind poker relies on the simple proven fact that you will find 52 cards in a deck. In a game of Hold ‘Em poker, a player receives two cards, in a game of Omaha four, in a game of Stud, index five. Thus, while a player will not know which cards are within the hands of the opponents, the remaining cards (a certain few of that are needed for a successful, winning hand) are in plain sight for someone to count. Using these details, a player can determine the amount of money in the pot to calculate what is called “pot odds”. Pot odds will either favor the player based upon the rewards weighed against the statistical chance of success, or favor folding his or her hand given the lack of a successful hand being dealt.
As an example, say a Hold ‘Em player needs an individual diamond to make a flush, which may be the very best hand available to any player in this scenario. While you will find 13 diamonds within the deck, the Hold ‘Em player has 2 of them and you’ll find two on the table (as five are required for a flush). Thus, you will discover only 9 potential diamonds in the remaining cards. If the player has two cards, his opponent has two cards, and you will discover four cards on the table, you can find 44 cards remaining, a 9/44 chance of hitting a diamond or approximately a one in five chance.
In this scenario, the pot is $50, with a $5 call for the player with the flush draw. The potential payout is ten to one while the odds are one to five — thus, the pot odds favor calling the $5 for the payout is double the opportunity of winning the hand. Although this particular hand could possibly be won 20% of the time, if it might be played out 100 times, the player would statistically be more likely to lose around $400 while winning around $1000.
