Texas Hold Em Tricks – A Sneaky All-In Tournament Trick
Texas Hold Em Tricks A Sneaky All-In Tournament Trick
Playing Texas Hold Em can be difficult or easy. You can make a lot of money or lose a lot of money. It all depends on how you play. There are many Texas Hold Em tricks that you can do to increase your chances of winning. But you have to be sneaky with them.
There is a certain sneaky all-in tournament trick that you can do. It may take a little bit to get going but when it does it's simply magic.
The Setup
First and foremost you have to play a standard tournament strategy. You need to play tight and aggressive. You must make a point that every time you enter a pot you raise in with 3xbb. You must make a point that every time you play past the flop you bet 3xbb. And any time you ever bet only bet 3xbb.
What this does is prevents you opponents from ever being able to figure out your hand.
The Play
What the sneaky-trick involves is suckering in an opponent and beating them with a nut hand. However, the nut hand is going to be one they would never expect. It's also a hand that is quite easy to get to but has a certain darkness or mist over it preventing it from being easily seen.
The Hand
The hand is a set. But in particular a low set. The only way to get it is to play very low pocket pairs, like pocket deuces. Generally the lower the better, but anything under 10 is really fine.
The Warning Bells
Although, you do not want to go all in when there is a risk that you might lose. That would be mad. You need to be wary of the following community cards:
- Straight Setups
- Flush Setups
- Two of the same card (so a paired board)
When To Go All-In
You really want to go all in when you have the pockets, the flop drops you a set, and there are other high cards like a K or J or whatever. The idea is your opponent gets a pair, or a two pair, with high cards and wants to play hard. You casually bet 3xbb like you always do and then all-in on the river.
When your opponent calls you he will be in a nasty surprise.
