Why PokerEdge? Online poker is a very different animal than live (offline) poker. Players are constantly coming and leaving. Some play for 15 minutes during their lunch break, others are constantly switching tables until they find one they like. This is unlike live poker, where players generally play for many hours at a time, at the same table. To make things worse, online players are mere names in cyberspace. They have no facial expressions or distinguishing features. These factors make it very difficult to get a good read on the many players that you encounter in online poker. Good players may think they can do this, and they might be able to - in a limited fashion. However it is nearly impossible to truly learn the playing styles of all nine other players at a table when people are constantly sitting and leaving. This is where PokerEdge comes into play.
The Edge you get is 3 fold: - Know your opponent better than he knows him self.
- Profit from better game selection.
- Improve your own game.
1. Know Your Opponent
"Poker is not a game of cards played by people; it is a game of people played by cards." By knowing how most of your opponents play before even watching a single hand, you will have a distinct advantage over the rest of the table. Playing your opponent is key in any form of competition. Some examples: -
Play more hands against players with loose starting hand requirements, and fewer hands against tight players. -
Play more hands against players that play poorly after the flop. -
Play aggressively against tight players, and do not bluff as often against loose players. -
Induce bluffs against aggressive players. -
Sit to the left of maniacs and to the right of tight players. It is interesting yet common that an opponent's playing style preflop will be very different than post flop. PokerEdge recognizes this and gives you statistics for each round of betting so you will know exactly how your opponent plays, and be able to identify leaks in his game.
2. Game Selection
"You could be the tenth best player in the world, but if you are playing in a game against the best nine, you are in trouble."
Some players like searching for fish to play against. PokerEdge takes this a step further by allowing you to search for "fishy tables." Choosing the right table and game to play in can dramatically increase your profits. If making money is important, than it only makes sense to play in the weaker games. Good poker players are good fishermen. PokerEdge's auto table lookup feature allows you to see how many shark and fish there are at each table. The red/green color coding scheme allows you to quickly identify profitable tables without even sitting down! By watching a few tables, you can find your perfect table and be confident that you are playing with an edge. Be sure to check out this tutorial for more details.
3. Improve Your Game
In addition to viewing statistics on all of your opponents, you will also be able to view your own statistics. By comparing your stats to other players, you will be able to critically analyze your own game. As you dissect more and more opponents, you will strengthen your own game and eliminate leaks.
If PokerEdge helps you win one extra hand per month, the price of the subscription will already be paid off. After that, PokerEdge will be paying YOU off in every session.
