H.O.R.S.E. tournaments are notoriously long as far as online poker games go, mainly because they need to include at least five different rounds at the casino. The rules for each casino differ slightly, but one standard practice is to move on to the next round after play has rotated all the way around the table. Depending how many people are sitting down at the poker table that could take a while. Even casinos that time their rounds allow plenty of time for players to really get into each variety.

With all this time yawning before you- how should you play? The best H.O.R.S.E. players are those that adopt a selectively aggressive stance. You need to make money at the table, but you also need your money to last the whole tournament. H.O.R.S.E. is not a quick game to make an easy buck. It takes time, and you will have to be at the final online poker table if you want to get a sizable share of the winnings.

By combining the best of a conservative strategy with the highlights of an aggressive policy, you can gradually increase your stack. Basically, you should only bet when you have a solid hand so that you are not just throwing away your chips. When you do place a bet on a good hand, try to bet as big as you can without drawing attention to yourself. This policy will gradually build up your stack without exposing you to risk.
