Here are a few more basics, plus some ideas for those of you who have already played a little poker online.

1. Learn both "pokerese" - the language of poker - and online poker chat abbreviations. You'll need them both if you're going to spend a lot of time playing poker online.

2. Don't feel like you have to win every hand - no one can. Sometimes your cards will be junk - not worth playing - and you'll be much better off if you just fold. And remember, even a good hand can be beaten by someone with a poor one. Sometimes it's a matter of experience and skill, and sometimes it's just luck.

3. Online poker can be fast. Don't let the action make you nervous or push you into doing something you wouldn't have done if you'd taken time to think. Do take the time to think. You'll probably find you have more time to make your moves than you thought you did. And the more you play, the faster you'll get.

4. Stay away from no-limit games when you're just starting out. Get used to everything first - the site, the software, and especially the game and how to play it. No limit is a great way to win big, but it's also a great way to lose big. And getting wiped out early in your poker "career" is not only bad for your budget, it's emotionally disheartening, too. (Even if you decide to play no-limit games for "virtual money," don't play carelessly. You don't want to develop bad habits that might carry over to your "real money" games.)

5. Take your game seriously, but not so seriously that you get really upset or angry when you lose. Remember - you're learning. Go easy on yourself, and on the people you're playing with - or against!

6. Watch what the other players do - for example, when and how much they bet, when they fold, and when they bluff. When you're playing online you won't be able to read body language or facial expressions, but there are still ways to observe behavior and use those observations to win more.
