I'll start what could prove to be a very interesting topic. Personally my strategy is to fold hands which I believe have no merit if my chips are way down but if I have loads I always call to see what cards will come up and have often been successful doing this my best tip though is if you have a fantastic hand bluff about this as in if you have a straight or a good hand before the turn I bluff that I am still looking for cards by checking instead of raising the stake then either on the river or the card just before that I go all in or raise it to my opponents balance(if I am confident) this confuses the other player as they think you have just got the card you have needed when really you had the hand the whole time from the turn! its a cruel way to eliminate people but its dog eat dog the world of online poker only the brave survive! Using this strategy I have won umteen hands in a row! Hope this helps new players!
Also pay close attention to cards that are drawn and quickly work out in your head what hands your opponents could make from these cards it should be obvious that you should fold if you only have a pair and no hearts and there are 3-4 hearts on the table that you should immediately fold but believe me some people still call! A guy did that the other night whereas when I saw that many of same suit I got out immediately as its obvious you will get beaten if you plump a pair or even 3ok with odds like that against you!
