World of Poker

When it comes to poker play my personal belief in terms of how much preparation is required depends on the context of the next game that I know I’ll be playing. The biggest determining factor for me is whether I am playing in a texas holdem poker tournament or a poker cash game where you will find each poker chip set at a monetary value that will not change. Also, if I’ve done something like planned a big trip to Las Vegas chip values go up across the board and I am more likely to spend more time prepping.

I find a specific poker tournament is more likely to get me into preparation mode. The reason for this is it is more of a structured event. From my point of view a poker tournament is more like a set game similar to something like a football game. There is a predetermined beginning and end. There are predetermined blind structures where the cash value per each clay poker chip will change. So, therefore you have a general idea going into it a structure, which is always easier to prepare for.

I read a great article about poker the game of preparation which better explains poker preparation strategies.
