There are many Texas hold em strategies a new player must learn when becoming a master of the game. I refer to three different levels of player, the fish, the piranha, and the shark. I myself am by no means a shark, I rank somewhere in the piranha level. The piranha level is by far the hardest to graduate from as the level of skill required to become a shark takes years of practice. Thanks to internet poker players are able to learn much more quickly, but without playing in live games as well, skills such as controlling your adrenaline while in a live game will be non-existent.
