101 Ways To Improve Your Poker Game #003 - Keep Your Stack Topped Off

In a cash game it is important to do everything you can to maximize the amount of money you can win from your opponents. It is important to keep the maximum amount of chips in front of you at any given time.

There is no worse feeling than losing a hand for most of your stack (which does happen to everyone) then while you are sitting there feeling sorry for yourself you are dealt AA on the button with $10 in front of you.

First there should be no feeling sorry for yourself. If you are playing correctly you should never feel bad about taking a bad beat and getting stacked. Also if you are managing your bankroll properly then it is shored up enough to withstand this situation.

If you didn’t play the hand properly then perhaps it’s time for a break.

So if you are staying at the table and you have your head screwed on straight then head up to the cage or call over the chip runner. The next monster could be right around the corner.
