Yes, it's the trendy game of the moment (especially in the no-limit variation, which is what I play and to what the strategies below best pertain). But, while I'm mediocre at it, I tend to win. Here's a few steps to get you started winning.

• Decide if you have a big hand or a small hand
• Steal the blinds
• Don't be afraid to win the small pots
• Bet big, to make your opponents make unprofitable bets
• When choosing your bet size, remember underbetting is a bigger sin than overbetting
