Quick help me get good at Poker!!

Never check

If the other guys are v. keen players, muck around with their heads a bit. Things like raising by 1 of each colour chip 'just because' - or play totally blind for one hand, things like that will get the others thinking 'WTF?'

I can teach you how to cheat

 

[Bodger Badger]

generally if you have a good card with a low kicker, i'll fold if the kicker is below the number of people on the table.

i.e A8 would be ok if there were 7 players left..

You need to sit there with some sunglasses on and creepily peep at the other players through them. Well that's what they do on about all 19 of the poker channels on Sky so it must be right. Maybe throw a strange hat into the mix too. Your 'poker' hat.

I'm only 16, but i started playing early (about 14), and i usually play for £5, with the chip values at 10p, 20p, 50p, £1 and the blinds at 20p and 40p.

But the small blind should be the minimum raise.

doesnt have to be does it? In tournaments the blinds change throughout.

Yeah and so does the minimum bet suprisingly

You've obviously got a reasonable grip on the game. Therefore my best advice would be "Learn to fold".

How well do you handle alcohol? If you're a 6 bottle a day whiskey chugging mofo, then drink the rest of them into submission. Works a charm.
