A “Blind” Tip

What do your opponents think when you are in the blinds?

Well what do you think the blinds have, when you are in other positions?

The answer is that most players who voluntarily enter a pot think that the blinds have nothing. So when you call a raise from the blinds and then check the flop or turn; everyone thinks you are weak. So you have two strategies, you can slowplay your strong hands and let them bet into you. On the other side of the coin, you can come out betting and make them think you must have hit something with that random blind hand.

The way to set this up is to play one or two blinds weak and then you can start the weak or strong play variation. Since blinds are tricky to play, it only makes sense you use them to your advantage and change up your play.
