#5 Any Two

This is an interesting style as it is played by many different types of players. Many older players that played poker years ago in home games that played dealers choice with a lot of crazy games of luck are the first. These home games required more luck then skill and players tended to play almost any hand because it always had a chance to win. The person who was the luckiest that night tended to win the most. These players like the to see the flop and even further if they have a draw. Their idea of a strong hand is very different so you must use caution. The next is a beginning bar league player that has played a lot of Internet poker. These player believe that they can out play anyone regardless of their cards. They also have a lack of patience because a bar game progresses so much slower then an online game. These players will either amass a big chip stack early or be one of the first ones out. Down falls of this style are if you are not catching cards or bluffing people out of hands you will be out early. If you do get a big stack early the blinds will eventually get high and you will lose all your chips as you will get calls as other figure out your style. The upside is no one can ever really put you on a hand and your big hands will get paid off. I like this style early in tournament when the blinds are low. It gives you the table image of being very aggressive. A good player must be able to switch out of this style when the times comes and sometimes it is difficult to do.
