This article is based off do’s and don’ts at a poker table. One of the most annoying things players do in a free poker tournament is to slow play every hand to try and make the money. In my opinion this is bad etiquette and slows everything down thus making it boring.

Now another bad thing to do is act out of turn (fold, call, raise) before it is your turn. This can effect your opponent’s decisions.

Also do not ever discuss your hand you folded or have during the hand.

Finally do not ever berate your opponent, use foul language, or throw a temper tantrum. This can effect how others act on their hands.

Doing any of these can make players mad and get you penalties in live play.

Poker is all about deceit at times, and playing a bluff is completely acceptable. If you are good enough at bluffing you stand a good chance of putting your opponent in a losing situation.

If you are playing against a professional, they take note of everything you have done to them in previous hands and calculate their position based on this . So remember betting patterns against certain players when you bluff or on a big hand.

Repeating these processes will not make it easy for them to decipher weather you are bluffing or playing the nuts (best hand possible). This will help you in your progression through the field.

Getting caught bluffing is not always a bad thing. This can help you win bigger pots later on. I always try to get caught in a small bluff early in tournaments when blinds are not that high and my stack won’t be too affected by doing so.

As always hope these free poker tournament pointers help you on your way good luck, win big, and win or lose always do it with class and dignity.
