Twenty Things I've Learned About Full Tilt
1) Nobody folds an ace. People would rather witness the death of their firstborn than throw an ace into the muck.
2) When you are shortstacked and looking at pocket ladies, somebody has aces or kings.
3) Every hand, there are at least two people playing suited cards, usually both below a ten.
4) Winning percentages do not matter to the bigger stack. You will win 85% of the time regardless of your cards.
5) Top pair after the flop generally means nothing.
6) You have to play hold ‘em like Omaha, meaning that two pair is the minimum to win a hand and when there are three suited cards, most of the time your opponent will have a flush.
7) If you are all-in on 4th street or sooner when playing Razz, expect to make pairs or draw face cards.
8) The opposite is true for stud.
9) Suited connectors win more than pocket aces.
10) Expect to be check-raised at least once a hand.
11) Most players play AK suited like they have already made a royal flush, regardless of the cards on the board.
12) When you think to yourself, “They can't possibly have, 4-6, 5-8, etc.,” they do.
13) The German players will keep hitting the raise button like meth addicts. Take their money as you see fit.
14) Most players do not know the definition of a value bet.
15) Nobody folds xxA2 pre-flop in Omaha Hi/Lo
16) If you want to get sucked out on the river every time, play limit hold ‘em.
17) Only play freerolls after you have been drinking, therefore you might find some humor in the play of your opponents and the beats you will take.
18) When playing in a freeroll, time out every third hand just to make things interesting.
19) 20% odds win 80% of the time.
20) After you make a withdrawal of your winnings, expect to go on a losing streak the likes of which you have never seen before.
