7 easy steps to winning 10 big bets a hour

[AJay]

A few months ago I was browsing through some archived poker articles, and I came across one that discussed the 7 things players typically learned as they got better. (No, it didn't literally suggest you could easily win 10 BBs an hour.) And the "steps" were in order, with the first one being not to play so many initial hands. I think the second one was to fold more often post-flop.

Does anyone recall this article and where I might find it? I thought it was part of cardplayer.com, but I didn't see it there when I looked for it a few minutes ago.

I don't know the post you speak of but I think we can safely say that it wasn't written by Ed Miller, NPA.

How about 8? Not Ed but David.

1 Checking when you should bet.
2 Betting when you should check.
3 Calling when you should fold.
4 Calling when you should raise.
5 Folding when you should call.
6 Folding when you should raise.
7 Raising when you should call.
8 Raising when you should fold.

There's an ongoing article similar to that a Pokerpages, so you might check there, however I think that that focuses on online poker, so it might not be what you are looking for.

I don't know if this came from the same article and I don't remember where I found this but it sounds like your article.

1. Playing Tight

2. Folding Early

3. Reading Hands

4. Avoiding Traps

5. Winning w/o the best hand

6. Inducing bluffs and calls

7. Playing the players

Hoped that helped

phishfan, I think that's the exact list. It started with "mechanical" skills and got more sophisticated as it went. Thanks!

And wyrm2, thanks for the heads up re: PokerPages -- I mainly play online.

Yep...that's the list. I went to Google and put in "Playing Tight" "Folding Early" "Reading Hands" and out came:

That's the article I read. Thanks for helping me find it.
