In your opinion: what are the three basic rules of a poker player?

[Edison A]

all players have different basic rules, a basic rule is to manage your bankroll correctly:driver:

 

[Iryna Stryzheuskaya]

do not play with bad cards

 

[BigRivers]

I think confidence is most important.:fight:

 

[Edison A]

do not play with bad cards

another basic rule, do not play more than 4 tables of tournaments at the same time (it's my personal opinion)

 

[BigRedRooster]

I'm not sure it's one of the three basic rules, as I'm new to the game, but feel one of them could be - Keep your feet grounded - I just learnt the hard way. Had my best day yesterday and couldn't wait to play today, went in thinking I was a good player and made and took risks I knew I shouldn't have. I got burnt and am back to earth with a bump. Lesson learnt. Keep my mind in check, think of everything, and don't presume or guess.

1. Never risk all your chips

2. Don't play if it is not necessary
3. Wait for good cards in the perfect situation

excellent points of view, always have a good management of your BANKROLL especially, I think that is the first rule that you should always apply

 

[nucl]

1) Be concentrated in your game.
2) Manage your bankroll wisely.
3) Don't risk your entire stack with marginal hands.

call or raise after the flop
All in, when you're 100% sure

 

[NHequalsFU]

1think preflop 2 think on the flop 3 think on the turn you can guess the 4th rule ...

 

[Kargenou]

Don't play trash hands, be kind to rest players, care about your bankroll

 

[vavilen_]

game on bankroll; patience; always calculate each of your actions mathematically; making a decision on the flop, think what you will do on the turn!

 

[Nick301274]

hand, position, the number of chips, see the flop, the ability to lure an opponent if the hand is cool (do not rush, put 3 BB and all set, then raise and all in), learn the oponent ie psychology, the ability to wait until the aggressive player who puts everything All-in time is gone, it's all about analyzing every situation and the ability to wait and endure, the very last thing

Don't play trash hands, be kind to rest players, care about your bankroll

Once I read a very good article about trash hands, it was very interesting to learn the moments in which the trash hands have a bit of preflop value, sometimes you have to take the risk but the position of the table depends a lot, all the players of poker we have beaten a high pair with a trash hand and we have won the hand, as soon as I have the information about the article that talks about trash hands, I will share it here in the forum

Experiment

Bankroll management is important, the common rule being, one should have 100 buy-ins for the game you're playing. I suggest explore different levels and styles of the game, you may be surprised where you excel at and where you struggle. Play the game you can beat and when that gets old challenge yourself with taking some stabs at a higher level, style, or both. Don't be discouraged when you try and fail. Learn from it and implement another strategy. Review your hands look for your own leaks and work on correcting them. Playing online can be a lot hard to keep focused on the game, it will take some effort to keep your focus at times. Adding another table or taking notes can help to keep your mind on the game. Goodluck
