Women and Poker

There was a time that poker was a man’s game. Of course, that’s not true anymore; poker is very much a co-ed game. There are many women poker players today, and they’re welcome every place the game is played. But, the majority of poker players are men and, whether they are poker players or not, men are still men. This works to the advantage of women who understand it and can exploit it. If you’re a man, you should be aware of this and take defensive measures.

The majority of successful women poker players are more aggressive than their male counterparts. All successful poker players are aggressive players, but it sometimes seems that successful women tend to be almost hyper-aggressive. They often find success in adapting this style because it usually works well against almost any male poker player.

Aggression tends to work well for women because of the way most men perceive and react to hyper-aggressive women.
