General Texas Hold'em Strategy.

Hold'em is basically highest hand, card game. The players holding two or three good high cards have the best chance at the best hand or a draw to the best hand after the flop. Only play the strongest hands, that will stand a raise or multiple raises, from early betting positions. Medium strength and other playable hands from the later positions if you have a good chance of seeing the flop at a reasonable price. Play strong high hands "most" of the time, and play them very aggressively. Take all the raises you can get. If you don't thin out the competition, you reduce your chances of winning dramatically. Plus, your aggressive play before the flop can add credibility to any strong play you might want to use on the next round if a garbage flop falls and you want to try a steal. Be ready to fold your high pair if you get a lot of action with a threatening flop.
