If you don’t know what H.O.R.S.E. Poker is, it’s the most popular mixed poker game in the world right now. It became popular once the World Series of Poker started featuring a HORSE Poker event. Quite a few online poker rooms offer H.O.R.S.E. Poker for their players. If you don’t know how to play the game then you need to make sure you read the rules before going through these tips.

* Since you need to learn how to play five poker games in order to play HORSE Poker it isn’t a game that you want to play as a new poker player. Generally you shouldn’t play this poker game until you have experience playing single poker games. The games you need to be able to play include holdem, omaha hi/lo, razz, seven card stud and stud hi/lo.

* When you play H.O.R.S.E. Poker you need to be able to play to your strengths. In order to play to your strengths the first thing you need to do is be able to identify what your strengths and weaknesses are. If you can identify your strengths and weaknesses it will allow you to focus on certain parts of your game. Generally you want to be comfortable playing all five games in HORSE Poker, but at the same time it’s hard to play all five games with the same level of comfortability.

* Since you’ll be switching between five different poker games on a regular basis you need to be able to switch playing styles quickly and have a good poker calculator available. Each of the five poker games you need to play in HORSE Poker have different strategies that you need to be able to utilize. If you’re unable to switch from one poker game to the next you’re not going to be very successful playing H.O.R.S.E. Poker.

* Since most poker players don’t start playing HORSE Poker until they have experience playing all of the games by themselves the competition is tough. You’re not going to find many new poker players hitting up the HORSE Poker tables. Often there aren’t that many players playing HORSE Poker in the poker rooms that offer the game, and the players that are playing are often regulars.

* If you’ve never played HORSE Poker before and you want to try out the game without risking too much money then you should look for an online poker tournament to play. Poker Stars and several other poker rooms offer HORSE Poker tournaments starting at a couple of dollars. These inexpensive tournaments won’t offer a big payday, but they will allow you to get the feel for the game so that you can decide whether or not this game is designed towards your playing style.

* HORSE Poker can be a difficult game to multi-tale so if you like multi-tabling then you might want to stick with the game you’re playing right now. Since there are five games constantly rotating in HORSE Poker you can easily become confused with what game is being played at a given time if you’re not paying attention to that table. When you’re multi-tabling all Holdem tables you’re only playing one game and therefore it’s simple, but when you have five games rotating in and out multi-tabling becomes a lot harder to do successfully.
