If I am a young inexperienced poker player, should I just go all-in everytime, so that my weaknesses won't get expose and make everyone have to take their chances with me.

yeah make sure you buy in for as much as you can though so they can't call
"Once we reach a certain level of mastery, we see there are higher levels and challenges. If we are disciplined and patient, we proceed. At each higher level, new pleasures and insights await us--ones not even suspected when we started out. We can take this as far as we want--in any human activity there is always a higher level to which we can aspire."

nothing will make you look more inexperienced than going all-in more than once per two hours.

that's exactly what I would do. It is imperative that you shove the chips into the pot aggressively and say "allin baby" or "damn aces again I love this game" as you shove your stack in. Nothing is cooler than doing this.

I would say to bluff once in a while, don't make it a habit to go all in when your cards aren't high enough... If you don't feel comfortable yet at the table playing for real money, try playing for fun until you get the confidence to play against the sharks... Trick is to not let them smell the fish..

When I started to play poker, I was a really bad player... I lost almost all of my hands.. why? because I did not knew the rules nor did I understood the game... so I think you can also start by there.. make sure you know the rules and understand the game and hands... know when to flop or when to call etc.

Good luck!

Cheers,

Melanie

Yeah, you could do that. Or you could actually learn to play poker. I also heard slot machines can be quite fun this time of year.

Yeah I agree with Melanie, just play poker wisely like me I enjoying myself playing poker with my friends. It is very important to familiarize first the nature of the game before you proceed to play with the different opponents specially if it's involve real money
