The size of the stack is a very important factor, and I would like to note that it is not only the size of your stack that matters, but also the size of your opponents' stacks.
I would also advise beginners not to bluff and to play only with strong cards. bluffing is an effective but very difficult part of the game, and if a player lacks experience and skills, bluffing will only lead to losses.

Start with patience, not bluffing.
When you're new to poker, the biggest mistake is playing too many hands simply because you can't wait to play.
Focus on tight, strong starting hands and avoid running after every draw.
This discipline will help you avoid tricky situations and keep your bankroll at a high level while learning.

Remember: in poker, lying down is also a skill.

One simple tip that’s made a big difference for me is always planning my hand before I put chips in the pot — thinking about position, possible opponent ranges, and how the board could develop. It keeps me from making impulsive calls or bets and helps me stay consistent with my overall strategy.
