Poker Tip
If you have a strong hand that you believe could collect the pot, raise the hand as much as possible and make the other players pay dearly for the privilege of staying in the game but if its a slow game, pace yourself so you don't scare the rest off. Remember you want as much in the pot as possible before you win it.
