Texas Hold’em Strategy #1: Be Positionally Aware:

Position dictates which hands you can play. Understanding how one’s hand strength changes by the position of all the players involved is crucial for success. The closer you are to the button the more hands you can afford to play.

Be very cautious from early position, and play no more than 10% of hands.

Texas Hold’em Strategy #2: Preflop Fundamentals

If you’re going to play a hand, come in for a raise. Raising preflop gives you two chances to win the pot: either if everyone folds or post flop when you make a continuation bet.

Avoid limping when you are the first player to enter the pot.

If you have a premium hand (or a hand that is likely to be stronger than your opponents), consider making a reraise (3-bet) preflop to isolate your opponent and build a pot.

Texas Hold’em Strategy #3: Play the Player

Each player approaches the game in a different way. Instead of playing your own two cards, aim to determine which level your opponent is on. Then, play one level higher than him.

In short, create a unique strategy for each and every opponent you face.

Texas Hold’em Strategy #4: Be Aggressive With Your Strong Hands

Too many beginning players like to slow play and wait for the perfect spot to put their money in the pot. Instead, be aggressive when you have a premium hand. Put in a raise to charge your opponents to draw out on you and value from worse hands.

Remember, you win money in poker by building a pot when you are likely to have the best hand. This means you’ll need to be the one putting in the raise.

Texas Hold’em Strategy #5: Develop an Overall Game Plan

A great next step to help you improve on your poker journey is to think about how you will react on future street BEFORE making any bets. This way, you’ll be one step ahead of the competition and can anticipate their next move.

  1. Excellent video Alec. It’s amazing how many players play for years without knowing all of these basic concepts.

  2. I’ve played 175k hands on pokerist, and videos like this still have my full attention. Great work, man. We all forget the basics sometimes

  3. Crazy to think that these basic tactics can make you so much cash. Maximize winnings while minimizing losses. Play each person accordingly. Position is king.

    I was able to make a living when I played. I stopped playing as often due to certain circumstances. However, I continue to learn. My ability to read my opponents isn’t as sharp, but applying these strategies that Alec has mentioned over time has helped me keep winning overall (playing properly beats getting lucky).

  4. Alec, you reccomend call 3bet with off suited conectors? Or just with suited conectors?

  5. One of the best introductory videos I've seen! There is SO much in this video – it really could take someone months of practice and study to really learn to apply these concepts. I am guilty of over study/over thinking. Playing basic players, I need to pull back to these basics. This will help me refocus on what I really need to be doing vs. basic / recreational players. They just don't know that they only "flop a hand" about 1/3 of the time. They will over call preflop and over fold post flop, but when they do call, they are in to the end (usually). Going to watch this a few more times for sure.
