Tip 40: Avoid Professional Players
Poker pros are great at poker. And if you ever do find yourself playing one, you’re probably going to lose your shirt. So, do everything you can to avoid them. If you do find yourself at a tournament looking across the table at some wily pro, pretend you ate some bad egg-salad and excuse yourself to the restroom. Then stay there until the tournament finishes.
