Bluffing strategy for beginers in facebook poker – Poker strategy -

Written by HoldemChips Monday, 16 January 2012 02:06

As with any game that requires wits when you play a game texas holdem facebook poker you need to apply a strategy to win. If you just play with no strategy and wait for the miraculous good hand it’s very probably  you’ll lose all your poker chips that you worked so hard to win.

One of the most simple and well known strategy to apply is bluffing, but of course you have to bare in mind the following words – how Abraham Lincon said: “You can fool some of the people all the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you cannot fool all of the people all the time.”

So, what bluffing actually means: bluffing is the strategy in texas holdem facebook poker where you have to make your opponents(at least as much as possible) think that you have a better hand when in fact you don’t. To apply this facebook poker strategy you have to think the game very well from start, sometimes before you are even sitting at table.

Here are a few rules when you want to make a bluff
When you are starting the game don’t raise or play agressive, just click the check button until the end or click the fold button if the others are raising very much. If you have some cards in your hand make a small raise and that should be all. Making this the others players from the holdem poker table will belive that you just wait a good hand, so you will not make any move until that great hand will come to you.
You have to do this many times, even if you lose a part of your chips. In this time you have to study your oponens and see wich one is just raising beliving that he is using this great tehnic to win the bet from the table, and if the rest are raising when they have cards in their hands.

Now you know the comportament of your oponents and you can start the bluffing strategy. Wait few hands and when no one is making a raise after the first 3 cards, make a small raise, the other probably wil fallow you, make a bigger raise at the 4th card, a part of your oponents will fallow at this move to other will just fold, when the hand is returning to you bet all the chips in your hand – now all the players will be absolutly sure that you have a great hand and they are not able to win the hand so all of them will click the fold button, and now you are the happy winner of all the chips from the table.

You won once, but don’t try this many times one by other, apply the tehnic from begening, play hand with no raise, raise only if you have at least one pair in your hand and wait at least 5-10 hand until you will raise again.
In poker you can not know what will happen so, if you are trying a bluff and it didn’t worked just leave the table and start it again on another table, becouse the players will observ your tehnic and you will not win again.
After 2 3 time applying the bluff you have to change the table, else you can lose all the chips becouse the others will aplly the same tehnic.

What will you do if you see a bluffer sitting at your table. You have to beat him using his tehnic: just play the hand and don’t make big raises if you don’t have a winning hand – and when they are starting to raise if you have a winning hand raise over them and you can win the hand with the cards or they ca just fold when they will see you raising.

Good luck in the game, have great hands in texas holdem facebook poker.

To call or not to call?! That is the question in facebook poker!

The Fish Call, the Sharks Raise – or so it’s said

In Facebook Poker Texas Hold’Em games, you will have the chance to see a lot of  game play that looks like :”Raise, Call, Call and Call” going on. Here you’ll see the main reasons why you should avoid the temptation of doing the same.

Calling that facebook poker chips raise Shows signs Weakness

Any good facebook poker player knows that, in Facebook Texas HoldEm Poker , anyone that always calls is more like a fish that’s saying, “Yo, hit me with your best shot esse!” Calling hands all the time will just get you in trouble. If your hand isn’t strong enough to raise, it’s not strong enough to play it  in the first place.

The one that Raises Controls the Hand – Muhahaha

When you raise a hand you show table dominance, kind of like alpha male stuff, by revealing your serious intentions to your poker opponents. If they miss the flop, you’ll take no prisoners, kill’em all, take everything. Here’s a pretty good example of why sharks raise on pre-flop:

Two players check by in the pre-flop and you raise with Ace-King. You totally miss the flop and a player who limped and then called your raise has 8-8. The flop comes J-Q-5 and you raise again. Most will immediately fold even though they have the winning hand.

As a very short conclusion : Use the force! Be the raiser, not the caller.

Facebook poker game on iphone

Playing Facebook Poker games on iPhone is nothing new of course. You’ve heard about it everywhere, it has been advertised and all that for some while. BUT just in case you missed it I just wanted to make it known once again. Facebook Poker games can be played on iPhone!

If you have an iPhone and like poker you definitely want to play facebook poker games on it.You will want to play when you’re at home in bed before going to sleep as I do, or at work and got some spare time to burn, in class if your teacher is too boring and you already studied what she’s teaching or read that boring book she’s talking about  (yea right).

At any time when you feel like it you can just pop out your iPhone and start playing your favorite facebook poker game connecting with your regular account you use on facebook everyday. You can still meet your friends and play at the same tables as well. You got bonus poker chips coming in every day as well just for opening your Facebook  poker game on iPhone.

All you have to do to play your favorite Facebook poker game  is find the application in the App Store. With you ipnone you can then play as a guest just for a shot at it or you can connect with your everyday facebook account and get in contact with your friends as well.

I will tell you now a small problem that appears when you want to play poker on your iPhone by connecting with your facebook account. Sometimes when you click on ”login with facebook” and get a page with pink rectangle saying that there has been an error all you have to do is update the facebook application on your iPhone.

If you do update and still get the same error try to remove the poker application and install it again on your iPhone with the
latest version. Do be careful what you install, make sure the producer of the application is the same as the one you play on Facebook!

As there are hackers and scamers everywhere online, there have been some clones of the poker game login and launched as games. They basically  only show a login page, and when you login with your facebook account they record it and show you a fake error message, later on changing your password or simply stealing your poker chips from the account. So, be very careful!

Leave a comment and let us know your experience with a Facebook poker game on iPhone.
