Watch out for Short Stacks
There are a few people that we should always be wary of at the poker table, for example anyone wearing a WSOP bracelet or whose last name is Moneymaker. While I am sure that you have trained yourself to notice the big spenders, I doubt that you put the same kind of attention into locating the low stake online poker players. However, I would strongly urge you to move your gaze away from the fancy piles of chips and focus instead on the players with less to lose. The thing about low stack players, the thing that makes them so useful to you, is the fact that these players are desperate to stay in the poker online game. As a result of their dogged determination to stay in the game, low stacked players will almost always play ultra conservatively. They do not want to lose the few chips that they have less, so they will almost never bluff. You should use these standard playing styles against the low stacked players at your table. They won’t bluff or call if they are not holding something of value, so this is your chance to bluff big. At the very least you will end up stealing a few valuable blinds. At the best, your bluffing will pay off big as these short stacked players repeatedly fold.
