No matter which variation of poker one is going to play, there are several effectual strategies one must learn in order to improve the chances of winning. 

1. Make out when to fold’em, and when to Holdem: One mistake that a novice player often makes is that he chooses to play many hands. Playing more does not indicate winning more, but it often indicates losing more. In case one finds they are staying in more than half of hands, they are dealt and need to enhance their starting-hand requirements.
2. Comprehend player’s stance: Not only it is imperative to play really ‘strong hands’, it is also imperative to know about the best position. The position of dealer is considered ideal because in this the players will be acting last. That means, they can keep an eye on the activities of opponents.
3. Be ready to put cash into pot: When one has good hands, one should not be afraid of putting more money into pot. Here, the major point is risk, if one does not step out and takes risks, then one will certainly not be able to earn money. Rather, it will only lead them to miss those massive jackpot amounts.
4. Decide on Best starting hands: One needs to ensure that hands which they start with are better and can lead them to gainful pots. If one starts with 2 weak starting-hands, their odds of winning huge prize money will not be achieved ever. There are odds for a player to come up with smaller pots; however, these pots can deplete cash in long run. This is why when one is dealt with the 1^st hand, one needs to ensure it is fold or strong hand.
5. Always start with free games: Many players choose to start with play money, whilst looking forward to participate in real-money games over the course of time. Shifting to real-money games is not a difficult job, but one should always keep on changing playing strategy if one expects to get prize, or at least not lose money too quickly.
6. Selection of Game: Selection of the game may also involve a trick. One can learn to play the game where all participants lack required skills or expertise. This will give better odds of cashing-in. For this, one needs to watch the game before signing up, and keep a track of players who are playing, and also how well they are doing.
7. Do not remain in hand only because you are in it already: Other common mistake which novices often make is to believe that they have already put much in pot, so they need to remain in hand. This is not true, as one cannot win pot only by adding money to pot.
8. One should not play when sad or generally in bad mood.
9. They should not play at very high limits.

Tenth and last tip is that one should not bluff just for the sake of bluffing, as there is no preset rule regarding it. 

These ten tips are sure to help players to select the game and hands as per their skill level and win massive jackpots in real money poker tournaments.
