Holdem Guide Part 1
The Pyramid System For Gamblers - Part 1
I'm gonna show you how to go into a casino as smarter gamblers, which often leads to coming out of a casino and the Texas Holdem Poker Game as happier gamblers.
Level 4—Room at the Top
The pointed apex of the pyramid—Level 4—represents the few professional gamblers who’ve made the casinos their place of employment, many of them learned Holdem Tricks from sites like this.. This includes some extremely knowledgeable computer-savvy race and sports bettors, some skilled blackjack card counters, and live poker and video poker experts. For these true professionals, gambling and poker playing is their only source of income: they work very hard and often put in much more than the standard 40-hour work week.
Still on Level 4, but under the full-time pro, is a group of casino customers who play at a professional level, but don’t rely on gambling winnings for their sole support. Most in this group think of gambling as their part-time job, using winnings to supplement

Others rush from Texas Holdem table to Poker table, hunting for a “lucky” one. Others are up in their rooms where they’re trying to figure out how they could have lost so much money so fast. As you can guess, these guys never read Holdem Guides.
You could also call these gamblers the “I-Don’t-Know-Why-I’m-Here” bunch, because they have never really thought about their goals when they enter a casino. You can ask anyone who goes into a casino if he wants to win a Texas Holdem game and you’ll get a strong “Of course.” But ask him if he usually does win, and he’ll probably start laughing too hard to even get out a “No.” Investigating further, you ask, “Well, if you usually lose, then why are you here?” At this point, most people are at a loss for words. They might stutter something like, “Well, I’m hoping to get lucky this time”, or mumble, “I feel a jackpot coming on’ ...
