Are you a “calling station”? If so, you are not yet ready to win and take a pro-active roll in the game. The fundamental aspect of winning a poker game is to be a steadfast aggressor. In other words, you need to bet and raise rather than call or check.

And, by betting you are putting pressure to your opponent. By raising you are making him lose his sleep. On the other hand, if you call, you are showing your weakness. Calling stations are thought to be decrepit players who don’t have any strategies or mind to win the game.

In unique situations, calling can be a formidable weapon too! So, if you underestimate your opponent just because he has called, you are terribly wrong.

To understand this point, let’s take one scenario. Dorothy made a pre-flop bet. A caller took away the money right under her nose. A peeved Dorothy again made a bet. This time she made a post-flop bet. Another caller called and again snatched the money from her.

At this point, the caller is actually playing the shots just like an aggressor. Though Dorothy had bet, she became a defenceless player in the mercy of the caller. So, where do you think the pressure has been given? — To the bettor and not to the caller.

In a nutshell, you need to take the heat off you and put it on to your opponent. This is the pressure tactics you need to remember.

There are also occasions where raising can be more of a trouble than calling. If you raise, and your opponent has a good hand, then there is a possibility that there would be a re-raise. You would then lose the game. Instead of this action, you can call to make your opponent feel vulnerable.

Instead of falling prey to the pressure tactics from your opponents, exert force and stress on them.
