Short Handed Post Flop Tip #1

Remember, like with all flops, with two different hole cards you will only hit a pair one third of the time. Don't forget that this is true for your opponents too. Maintain aggression and using continuation bets always have more weight at short handed tables.

Short Handed Post Flop Tip #2

Beware that because everyone will be focussing on each others play styles even more than normal, check raises are often more obvious short handed.

However, one strategy is to do check raises with quite weak hands so you are called the next time you check-raise when you're holding a monster.

Like always, my advice is to just stick with aggression and not bother with check raises unless you really know what you are doing.

Short Handed Post Flop Tip #3

Realise that middle pairs are more likely to win by themselves short handed than in a full table. Although they are still dangerous sometimes your opponent won't hit at all and all that is required is a pair.

This isn't to say they will always work, but just consider them a little more.

Imagine feeling completely sure you knew exactly what to do post flop in a short handed Texas Holdem game. You are determined, and it feels certain. You are thinking you are going to win no matter what and no one can stop you.

Because whenever you do you are acting out on your goal of being a successful poker player. And every time you don't you are moving away from your goal of becoming a successful poker player.
