Play middle and low pairs very carefully at Holdem. Do not call big pre-flop raises with them, and if you dont hit trips on the flop, fold immediately in the face of a bet.
Do take the time to read the posts in a poker newsgroup or forum. There are two benefits you will learn from your betters, and you will see the ridiculous things that some people say, which will redouble your efforts to play at the same table as them.
Resist the temptation to play online when you only have 10 or 20 minutes. The reason for this is that you will almost inevitably find yourself breaking one of the most basic poker tenets and playing too many hands. Even if you get lucky and win with a hand that you should have laid down, this might encourage you in the future to play bad hands and you will lose more money in the long run.
Only play poker when other things in your life are going right. You will play your best poker when youre feeling good about yourself. If you sit down for an evening of Holdem when everything else in your life has gone wrong that day its going to be an expensive evening.

Aim to play your drawing hands against lots of opponents. This is because although the odds are probably against you making your hand, on the occasions you do hit you want as many players in the pot as possible to pay you off.
In Holdem, position is a vital part of the game, often ignored by beginners. Pay careful attention to your position at all times. Money moves in a clockwise direction round a Holdem table. The earlier your position, the better a starting hand you need to enter the pot.
Remember that the best position in Holdem is on the button. This is because you will always be last to act after the flop and in subsequent betting rounds, giving you the huge advantage of seeing what your opponents have done before you have to make your decision. You cant win every hand from the button, but you should never waste the opportunities it presents.
Beware players who flat-call under the gun (first to act). Most Holdem players know that you need a premium hand to enter a pot from first position, and if you find yourself facing an opponent post-flop who limped in from there, you should put him on a big starting hand.
If youre holding a straight at Holdem, but the bottom card is in your hand rather than on the board beware. The chances of someone else holding a higher straight are so high that its not worth risking any chips on it.
Never slow-play AA or KK before the flop. If you dont raise, the chances of your rockets or cowboys being beaten go up and up. Occasionally everyone will fold, but thats a chance you have to take. Better that, than to be beaten by 8-7 suited or something equally horrible.
Dont let the fact that your hole cards are suited at Holdem unduly influence your decision whether to fold or not. Most low-limit players place far too much value on suited cards. The fact that your 5-4 is suited does not make it playable. You are 8/1 to catch a flush draw, let alone the actual flush, which may very well be beaten by a higher flush anyway!
Always fold a drawing hand against a single opponent. The odds are never good enough against one player to justify chasing a flush or straight draw.
Note that the average hand when youre playing heads-up (i.e. against a single opponent) is Q7. Holdem is an aggressive game, but never more so than when youre heads-up. Raise pre-flop with any hand better than Q7, but be prepared to get away from the hand if your opponent re-raises.
Poker
Poker is a popular type of card game in which players gamble on the superior value of the card combination (hand) in their possession, by placing a bet into a central pot. The winner is the one who holds the hand with the highest value according to an established hand rankings hierarchy, or otherwise the player who remains in the hand after all others have folded (the player who makes an un-called bet.).
Game Play
In casual play, the right to deal a hand typically rotates among the players and is marked by a token called a dealer button (or buck). In a casino, a house dealer handles the cards for each hand, but the button (typically a white plastic disk) is rotated clockwise among the players to indicate a nominal dealer to determine the order of betting.
One or more players are required to make forced bets to create an initial stake for which the players will contest. The dealer shuffles the cards, cuts, and deals the appropriate number of cards to the players one at a time. Cards may be dealt either face-up or face-down, depending on the variant of poker being played. After the initial deal, the first of what may be several betting rounds begins. Between rounds, the players hands develop in some way, often by being dealt additional cards or replacing cards previously dealt. At the end of each round, all bets are gathered into the central pot.
At any time during a betting round, if a player makes a bet, opponents are required to fold, call or raise. If one player bets and no opponents choose to call (match) the bet, the hand ends immediately, the bettor is awarded the pot, no cards are required to be shown, and the next hand begins. This possibility of winning a pot without showing a hand makes bluffing possible. Bluffing is a primary feature of poker, one that distinguishes it from other vying games and from other games that make use of poker hand rankings.
At the end of the last betting round, if more than one player remains, there is a showdown, in which the players reveal their previously hidden cards and evaluate their hands. The player with the best hand according to the poker variant being played wins the pot.
