Free Poker Education Guide To Playable Pocket Cards And Table Position

In this free online poker article you're going to learn about playable hole cards and the importance of position. At the end you'll also learn about the not well understood area of limping.

A key concept first, the range of hands your opponents may have is something you must first nail down, the term for this is "hand range".

As a poker skill hand ranges count as one of the most critical.

For example, an opponent is super tight and reraises you big preflop. QQ,KK,AA would be the example range. You know they must have one of these hands, though not which one exactly.

You need to record ranges as you play but do not have to write out all possible ones. The range of (QQ, KK, AA) is shortened to (QQ+), meaning any pocket pair QQ or above.

KT, KJ, KQ offsuit would be written KTo+ to mean offsuit king KT or better. Offsuit is designated "o" and suited with an "s", so, K8o+ is any offsuit king K8 or above.

Playable hole cards

First there are 3 variables to consider

1) The action before our turn to act.
2) Your Table Position
3) The opponents' tendencies

Number 1 is self explanatory. If there's been a raise, a 3bet, and a 4bet before action reaches you, you should fold your pocket 9s. Being tighter than your opponents when you open is a good rule to work by.

Table Position -
You should be opening progressively wider the get closer you get to the button.

1) There is a lower chance of other players getting a playable hand and better chance of folds as there are fewer players left to act after you.

2) You get position on your opponents postflop. For example, you're on the button, your opponents have to act before you meaning you get to act with more information than them at every point in the hand. They do not know what you have but you know they elected to play preflop AND their reaction to the flop.

Opponents' habits examples -
> Don't open wide from the button if the big blind is going all in with every hand as you'll have to fold weaker hands to his shove.
> Loosen up if the players still to act are tight, it gives you a better chance of stealing the blinds.

If the players behind us are loose and aggressive, make 2 adjustments.
> Play tighter..
> Play fewer suited connector hands and more high cards..

Play hands like KJo, flop top pairs, and go it All-in against loose aggressive opponents But with say 87s if we miss and cbet the flop you're unlikely to get many folds and the hand has less equity. So high-card hands go up in value while middle connectors go down.

Some hands you nearly always play, for example, JJ+, AQ+. Others like 52o nearly never, but "it depends on the situation" applies to many more.

Generally:
- Play loose late position, tight early.
- Play tighter against loose players, looser against tight players (preflop)
- Preflop play looser against passive players and tighter against aggressive.
- If there has been action before yo play tighter.
- Almost always play premiums, almost never play trash

For example to illustrate.

- UTG (1st position) 10 hand example range: (TT+, AQo+, AJs+)
- Button range vs tight blinds: (22+, A2o+, A2s+, K6o+, K5s+, Q9o+, Q8s+, JTo, JTs, T9s, 98s, 87s, 76s)
- Button range vs loose blinds: (22+, A7o+, A2s+, K8o+, K8s+, QTo+, Q9s+, JTs)
- Button range readless: (22+, A7o+, A2s+, K8o+, K7s+, Q9o+, Q9s+, JTs, T9s, 98s)

Limping

Should you limp preflop? No, nearly never, except if:

> Playing a marginal hand against a loose passive player..

> More common, especially in free poker games, a limpede. A limpede is a limp+stampede = limpede...where several players limp preflop.

Join "limpedes" when you have suited connectors or low pocket pairs, as you have the chance to flop a strong hand, flush, straight, combo draw or set very cheap. If it becomes clear that you won't then check/fold the flop as the sole objective is to flop good.

As so much of this is "it depends you should practice on free online poker sites where you can change around your ranges and see what works and what doesn't, how you should adjust in certain spots, etc. with absolutely no monetary loss.

So experiment away! It is a deep subject and in this article I have only touched on many areas. there is another longer version of this lesson, see it at the NoPayPOKER.com free poker lessons online blog (where you can also play free poker games online for fun and practice)
