Winning at poker is dependent not so much on luck as on the chosen tactics and ability to "read" the opponents cards by gestures and emotions. However, to develop your own strategy without knowing the basic rules is still impossible, which is why the first step on the way to victory in the competition will be to study them carefully. There are many combinations which have differing consequences. You have to master them all before you start to deal. Try to remember different combinations of cards during the game and carefully look at the hands of the dealer while he or she is shuffling the cards and distributing them. Try to understand the structure of the game, learn the terminologies and how to calculate the odds.

Learn how to hide your emotions, because they are your main enemy in poker. A cool and calm facial expression will confuse your opponents to judge whether you are bluffing or making the right bet. Professional players can be identified by a novice at a glance; they have similar emotions whether they are dealing with strong and weak cards in their hands. When you are playing online though, you cannot see the rivals and this factor automatically gets eliminated.

When you lose, try to come back stronger, but never hurry. The desire to fight back as quickly as possible is fraught with new losses. Haste and vehemence have never helped anybody in the game of poker, ask any veteran. If you are unable to find your groove, it is better to go on a short break and refocus.
