Going All-in at the Online Poker
Table
Going all-in can be one of the
most chanciest moves at the poker table.
Besides the obvious scenario of completely washing
out a player, on the other hand, it can bring a
near-dead bankroll back to life in a big way.
So when is the right time to go all-in?
Many times players will go all-in with a semi-decent
hand because the pot is so big and they have a
suspicion that a player they are going head to head
with is bluffing.
This is actually the wrong
thing to do. It may pay off some of the time,
but will backfire more often than not. Even if
you are very confident another player is bluffing,
you never will know for sure. The rule of
thumb is to only go all-in when you are holding
at
least a two pair.
A high three of a kind is worth considering, but
only if you are 99% sure your greatest competition
in the pot is bluffing. The only time you
should go all-in with an average hand is when you
are at your rope's end and barely have enough in
your bankroll to play a new hand.
