I have 3 or 4 newbies coming to my next friendly mixed fixed limit game, and I want to give them an overview and tips. Here are the points I plan to discuss:
1. Hand rankings.
2. Bet limits and game structures.
3. Strategy. Show them the "tight but aggressive..." speech Mike gives to the professor in rounders (48:55).
4. Position.
5. Pot odds. Get them thinking about the likelihood of improving their hand vs. to the amount of money it costs to see more cards, and how much money is already in the pot.
This may be a bit much but it's a start. Thoughts?
