Texas Hold'em Poker Winning Tips & Tricks

Before the flop:
One of the biggest mistakes beginners make in playing Texas Holdem poker is to try and play too many hands of cards. It is important to have an awareness of your position in relationship to the dealer - you will need a stronger hand of cards to play from an early position because there will be more players playing after you who may decide to raise or re-raise the pot. You have to be patient and wait for a good hands of cards that you can play from the best position possible.
In early position
Raise with Ace-Ace King-King and Ace-King suited from any position. Call with Ace-King, Ace-Queen suited, King-Queen suited and Queen-Queen, Jack-Jack and 10-10 but fold with everything else.
In middle position
Call with nine-nine, eight-eight, Ace-Jack suited, Ace-ten suited, Queen-Jack suited, Ace-Queen, King-Queen.

In late position
Call with Ace-anycard suited, King-ten suited, Queen-ten suited, Jack-ten suited, Ace-Jack, Ace-ten and small pairs. A stronger hand of cards is needed to call a raise than to make one and if there is a raise before it is your turn to play then you should probably fold.

I hope this will help all beginners like me to improve Game

I would call these more genreal guidelines. You can't describe winning tips because they are almost always situational.
In order to recognize winning plays in certain situations i would recommend posting your hands.
Nonetheless, a good post on starting hands and for me personally a good reminder to re-adjust my starting hands.

I suppose beginners with no experience need some sort of track to run on but this advice is basic of basic. I think reading something like Harrington on Cash vol 1 and 2 are great primers these days. You simply more than this not only to survive in micros but to advance your knowledge so that you can move up.
