Here's my advice to a new player:

First, if you have to play No limit, do some research and find out what sites spread a no limit game with the lowest blinds. My sincere suggestion would be to learn limit hold 'em first.

Sign up through the link for that site on the front page of this website. Deposit the minimum and collect the bonus.

If you have $75, you probably wanna play a NL game with a .10/.20 blinds.

Now understand this, no matter what you think you know right now, if you just learned the game, you don't know shit. There's a damn good chance that you're going to lose that initial deposit. If you stay at a low limit, it should afford you some time to learn the ropes before you lose your wad.

During that time, you need to read as much on the game as possible. Go and buy books. Search for free books online. Read, read, read. If you don't have the desire to read and study, you probably won't be a winning player in the long run.


All of the above is based on the assumption that you want to make money and not just play for entertainment.

Good luck.
