Re: Royal Hold\'em strategys
You make money in this game by understanding postflop play. I rarely raise preflop (except AA and KK or on the button against passive SB and BB). I will see many preflop raises unless I learn that the villian actually understands the game.
Royal is all about postflop understanding. You need to be able to read your opponents betting, and understand your possibilities.
Example:
You have AK preflop
Flop and turn are AKQJ rainbow. Regardless of the betting you are in excellent shape. You are probably only trailing AA. Of course if a Q or J comes on the river you are folding.
I fold more on the river than ever before - because I need a great hand to call a river bet.
Perhaps the keys are understanding your possibilites at each point and knowing when you are beat. The players I see in this game have little understanding on when they are already beat.
