◇ Just read — no action needed
Your first deal
One opponent, gentle stakes, and a hand dealt just for you. Two habits to start today: fold quickly when your cards are weak, and bet when you believe you're ahead — guessing is allowed, dithering is not. Watch, too, how often the rookie simply folds: most hands die to a single bet. Perfection can wait; volume cannot, because these lessons only become instinct through repetition.
