On my way to a poker night.
I am a total noob and I seldom gamble.
Any tips?
Also I’ve promised the host I won’t bring up bitcoin too much 🫠

Don’t bluff. Don’t play weak hands.
Play tight, fold often, and orange-pill the guy with the biggest stack… 🫡⚡️
One tip: gamble with fiat only, since holding onto it is a gamble already.
Don't try and bluff. Only bet big when you think the odds are in your favour. Play conservatively the rest of the time.
Avoid strip poker.
Play strong hands only, and def need to bluff (makes you less predictable and it’s fucking fun)
Bet small and play long and enjoy yourself.
Have this ready so you know if you have a decent hand.
Fold a lot preflop. Have positional awareness. Take note of who's playing loose and who's playing tight, act accordingly. Don't get cute when you have made hands, bet bet bet.
but you won't keep your promise will ya
Don’t be afraid to fold. Even pros fold often.
Otherwise just have fun. Poker is a great game, I’m a bit jealous. I’ve been trying to put together a local club myself.
Bet truthfully the whole game. Bluff late in the game, and only once.
Beginners luck is on your side.
New idea, instead of battle bots. Open source algo poker, each AI can look at every other players open source design and then they play against each other.
Don't gamble your bitcoin.
Fiat is ok, it won't hurt so much if you lose your fiat.
But bitcoin, no, not under any circumstances.
Otherwise you good.
Have fun!
Ps. I've never played poker either.
All in on every hand until you've either won or have run out of chips. Then celebrate and/or orange pill the others who lost, depending on outcome ofc. 👌
Don't do it
Wear sunglasses and one of those pink translucent golf hats.
Position is the most important. You want to be last to act. Try not to get into big pots in early position unless you have a great hand.
Imagine you want to go home asap , play to loose all your money . The opersite will happen. People interperate this absolute confidence as a good hand. They fold good hands.
Don't play in high stakes games, just pocket money
Just enjoy! And take notes for the next poker night ;-)
If you keep folding until you get something good.. people will notice when you don't fold. Just bet sometimes. And occasionally a bit aggressive if you can afford it. Even if you don't have anything in particular.
STEAL THE BLINDS!
PS: I too suck at poker. I don't even know the rules.
Just keep folding until you get something good.
Just like bitcoin, go all in at the start. Everyone folds. You now start like a bank, with more than everyone else 😎
Push all in on pocket 2 7
Just speak about sats, not bitcoin at all 😅
Promises are meant to be broken!
Is the gonna be meat?
I lost 15 then another 15 Euros buying back in (lol, classic noob) but then I managed to pay the winner in Bitcoin.
I also paid the guy who organised the pizza order in Bitcoin.
My ego took a bruising but ultimately, it was a win for Bitcoin.
