Eleven ways for u to win ( hope will help you )

1.Play starting hand combinations that can grow into very big hands.

2.Because of huge implied odds, you can afford to play smallish pairs in hopes of flopping a set. While you’ll usually have to release your hand on the flop, you’ll more than make up for this on those occasions when you make a big, well-disguised hand win all of your opponent’s chips.

3.If you have the best hand and figure your opponent for a draw, bet enough so that he does not get the odds necessary to play his draw.

4.When you have big draw, try to get there inexpensively if possible, and be aware that you might have to release your draw to a big bet if you don’t complete it on the turn.

5.Avoid playing draws out of position. If you act after your opponent, you won’t find yourself trapped by a player who acts after you do.

6.There are big differences in the kinds of starting hands you can play in no-limit and those you should play in fixed limit. In a fixed-limit game, you’re in search of starting card combinations that can make top pair with a terrific kicker. In no-limit, you want cards that can grow into very big hands on the flop, so that you can trap your opponent for all his chips.

7.In a restricted buy-in no-limit game, you will usually call raises with top pair-best side card, and plan to buy in again if you lose all your chips. But in a deep stack no-limit game, you have to be prepared to release those hands, as well as two pair, and maybe even a set on occasion.

8.Bluffing plays a much larger and more significant role in no-limit than it does in fixed-limit games.

9.Many no-limit decisions are predicated on the number of chips you and your opponent each have at risk. The more chips that can be won or lost on a hand, the more prudent and strategic the play usually is.

10.If you have a relatively short stack and are raised in a no-limit game, you’ll probably call and buy in again if you lose. But if you have a deep stack — and your opponent does too — you’ll have to release a lot of hands that you’d ordinarily call with in fixed-limit or restricted buy-in games, to avoid losing all your chips at once.

11.When playing no-limit hold’em, don’t call a bet before thinking through the implications of additional bets — sometimes a subsequent bet may be for all your chips — on successive betting rounds. No-limit is more of a wagering continuum, while fixed-limit betting tends to stand on its own from one round to another.
