Learn Poker Video Source & Info:
Even if you learn a ton of poker strategy, it’s not going to pay off unless you pay attention to your opponents and what’s happening at the poker table.
In the latest episode of our beginner poker strategy video series How Not to Suck at Poker, we teach you exactly how to pay attention at the poker table to make more money.
Pay Attention to Every Hand
This is a tip that every poker player has heard but many fail to put into practice.
Every hand that plays out at your table is a chance for you to learn something about your opponents.
That means that even if you fold, you need to watch and take note of how the people still in the hand are playing.
Pay attention to how often players are raising before the flop and from what position. And if their preflop raise gets called, how often are they continuation betting on the flop?
Do they like to play their draws fast by betting and raising, or are they just calling and shutting down when they miss? The second you sit down at the poker table you should be watching every other player in the game and profiling them as tight, loose, aggressive or passive. Most players are a combination of more than one style so make sure to pay close attention.
Identify the Weak Spots
To win at poker you don’t have to be best in the world, you just have to better than your opponents. The same thing goes for your table. You don’t have to be better than everyone, but if you’re the worst player at the table you’re going to lose.
Most of your profits will come from the worst couple players at the table so you have to be able to identify the weak spots and focus on playing as many pots against them as possible.
You also have to be honest with yourself and be able to see when you’re the weak spot at the table. Don’t let your ego get in the way. Just pick up your chips and find a game where you’re not the mark.

Watcjed this whole series and its really good bit it overlooked something very important and my one weakness in poker. How and when to get away from a strong hand. My only loses are due to bad beats not being able to fold that full house and getting took down. So i dont lose often but when i do its big. Gotta be a lesson on how to get away from those big hands and when.
" if you're the worst player at the table, you're going to lose" This statement is not even remotely true, at least not in the short-term. I've seen plenty of donks win tournaments or leave a 1/2 table with $3K. I'll take a mediocre player with a streak of good cards over a card-dead Pro any day.
Thanks- I'm a beginner and this presentation is awesome
Great series man
