Default Re: teaching a new player

[ QUOTE ]
What I would teach her is basic rules of the game, and make sure she has the basics to avoid being embarrased. That might be stuff like how to shuffle efficiently, how to protect her hand, how to bet properly.

good advice!

she has to know that a flush is better then straight and what it means 2 use the boardcards to complete your hand (holdem?)

the worst thing for a newbie is 2 getting laughed at, she will hate it if she is sucesfull in other areas

Preflop: if the 2 cards is 20 or better together, its an ok hand

postflop: fold if u dont like what u see and use your head
