by admin on June 21, 2011

Top earner on the World Poker Tour (WPT) Daniel Negreanu has stated that stupidity will lead to a fast exit from tournaments.

In an article for The Grands Rapid Press, the poker ace told of one competition he was in where he made a good run and then blew most of his chips in one go.

He cites three examples of “stupid play” in tournaments, the first of which is bluffing at the wrong time.

Negreanu’s second tip is not to call a large bet with a weak hand in an attempt to catch an opponent out.

Finally, he said that gambling on a “coin flip” with a large amount of chips is often a poor move and can be disastrous.

To avoid falling into these traps, Kid Poker recommends keeping an eye on the blinds to avoid overbetting and getting impatient.

In addition, he stated that making risky moves early on can be an error and said it is advisable to save risky plays for later on in the event.

Negreanu has won four World Series of Poker bracelets and currently has earned more money than any other pro on the WPT, having amassed over $5 million in winnings.
