Pure Math Poker: Winning in Wild Games
Ed Miller wrote an article about a foolproof strategy for beating wild no-limit hold'em poker games. The whole article has all the details but if you want the quick step-by-step lesson, here it is (bullets added):
Why is this strategy so good? What makes it foolproof?
- Buy in for 40 to 60 big blinds.
- Wait for strong starting hands: pocket pairs, big aces, and K-Q.
- If you have a medium or big pocket pair, or if you have two big cards, raise preflop.
- With small pocket pairs, or on the button with your somewhat weaker hands, you can just limp.
- If the pot is raised and you hit the flop well, move all-in...
- Your goal is to get your money in early with good hands so there are no tough decisions.
