It doesn’t matter what kind of poker variation you are playing, future planning during the hand will help your game.  Not enough players think of the possible outcomes during a hand.

Think about what you will do if certain cards come on the flop, turn and river.  Set it up from the beginning.  If you are playing someone who is a little tight, show your strength and they will mostly shy away.  Its important to get aggressive from the beginning and keep to your plan.  One little sign of weakness and the table will come back at you.

Think about what you will do if certain cards come up on the river or turn.  Plan the street. Am I going to fold, raise or call? What kind of flop is there?  And, go through the options for each situation, am I going to fold, raise or call?  What did I do pre-flop and what sort of message am I giving to my opponents?  If I call and then fold, what was the point of calling in the first place?  Maybe just to stay in the game and see what everyone else would do, or to see the next card.

By planning ahead you know whether you will bet or not, and what size bet, therefore you shouldn’t leak value.  You are either in the hand or out.
