Texas Holdem Tips Video Source & Information:

If there is one thing novice Texas Hold’em players do more than anything else — something that basically screams that they are inexperienced — that is calling or ‘limping’ before the flop.

Limping to see flops might seem like a way to save chips, but it is much more likely to lose you chips in the long run. New players usually know to raise with hands like A-A or K-K. But with medium-strength hands like Q-J or 7-7 some are tempted just to call to see a flop.

Here we’ll tell you why that might be a bad idea and how to avoid limping.
