Strategizing Opponents in Texas Hold’em
Imagine just for one second what the pros like Phil Ivey must be thinking when
they are looking across the poker holdem table at their opponents.
Yes, the
situation is just a tad unique, considering the blinds at this point are probably in
excess of a hundred grand.
None the less, the common point to remember is Ivey
just isn’t staring blankly thinking about what’s for dinner; he is reading his
opponent and determining what type of player he or she is.
The pros generally put players into four categories – they are the Tight Passive, The
Loose Passive, The Loose Aggressive and the Tight Aggressive.
All are unique and
odds are you will be playing against one or possibly all in your next free-roll.
Distinguishing between these players is in fact a challenge and requires patience
and some good old fashioned guts to figure out.
This is why if you’re a new fish, it’s
imperative to play for free first to gain some practice in common strategies.
