Definition of heater
A heater is a period of time in which a player is successful in everything. It can also be a period of time in which he receives only good starting hands. Anyone who has played poker knows that AA, KK and QQ are rare. A player in a heater would have good hand on top of good hand. The heater can be 4 hands, 5 hands or more. We also say that a player is on the run, on fire or running good. You have to take advantage of your heaters to maximize your profits.
Maximise your profits from your heaters
A heater is a time when generally we will make a profit. What's even better with heaters is that your opponents won't see your cards, so if they see you playing hand after hand and the hands never go down, they may suspect you're bluffing. Perhaps they will tell themselves that you are on an aggressive streak and want to bluff systematically. If one or more players want to play police with you and call your bets with very weak hands, just to see your cards, your heater could be even more profitable.
