They say that 72% of the Earth is water…

April 10, 2009 By: LVpokerdealer Category: Tales From A Dealer

Scientists say that 72% of Earth is water….I say 72% of Las Vegas poker rooms are filled with the fish who swim in those waters!

Recession? What recession?! Vegas is PACKED with fish losing money everyday, and you need to be here cleaning up! Over the past few months, Vegas has gotten a little slow, but let me tell you…there is nothing in the world that can keep gamblers away from gambling!

I want to give everyone out here reading a few tips on how to beat the fish, the locals, and what to look for when playing low limit no limit, such as 1-2 or 2-5nl.

1) When someone is local, it DOES NOT mean they are good! Don’t be afraid of locals! Locals are ROCK TIGHT, NITTY, and will check fold pretty much any hand they raise with and miss. Also, you need to take advantage of their nittiness!…when they limp utg or utg+1 which they do a lot, raise in position and Cbet them…they will always fold when they miss! TRUST ME!

2)Pay close attention when someone makes a huge raise…I have dealt for 4 years now, and I notice a lot of players who usually make a standard raise of $10-$12 all the sudden make it $25 or $30 to go…it only means one of two hands…10’s or jacks! I see it EVERY DAY, someone makes a massive raise and everyone folds and they turn over jacks and say something retarded like “Only way to play em!”…or “I don’t wanna see a flop with this hand”….when you notice this..I usually call 100% of the time in position with any two cards, and if an overcard comes, they check fold to my bet every time! Another thing I do often is if the flop comes with an overcard and they check to me like they always do, I bet and when they are thinking I usually say “jacks are tough to play”…and 90% of the time they just toss em face up as they muck!

3)Pay attention to people watching tv! Every card room has televisions on the wall, and when you are playing, hopefully you are paying attention to the poker game and notice all the people at the table watching tv….this is a HUGE TELL! If you raise and get flatted by someone who is usually watching sports on tv, watch them when the flop comes out! If they look super interested in the board, they usually hit big, and if they go right back to glancing at the TV, they are uninterested in the hand and it’s a nice spot for you to bet and pick that pot up!

By applying these 3 tips…you can quickly become a shark in the Las Vegas fish tank!!
