Very nice video, I am poker novice myself too. I have been also doing some studying and your journey can be nice motivation to me :) I just wanted to ask about raising to 20 from UTG with monsters when your opponents always call I felt like you could have sized up like 25-35. Keep up the good work !

@justsmy5677 Жыл бұрын

Nice play and vlog! My only input would be to edit out the audio from your phone if/when you are not talking to other players or there is something worth listing to. I’m nitpicking, but was a little distracted when we kept hearing the guy on the PA system talking. Great job! I subbed!

I just moved to Dfw from NY and action is crazy in Texas remember what ya think should happen doesn’t usually happen game is 1/2 but with deeper buy in games play bigger amd people tend to float and under rep hands

@giljackpoker Жыл бұрын

Yes that is very true. Action is so good

@zachdelong1039 Жыл бұрын

If your standard pre flop raise is $20 and your getting called by half the table add $5 for each player left to act. This will get you three things. One you win a lot of blinds preflop without a fight and you will play a lot more pots heads up. On the rare occasion you do get raised you know your likely behind.

@giljackpoker Жыл бұрын

Yes good point. I adjusted my sizes in later videos

@gunsandgaragegear601 Жыл бұрын

I like the video man! When you’re recording yourself in your back yard you look like you’re looking way off camera. Apart from that some of your sizing was just way too small. Like your UTG open, make it bigger than 15 and you’ll have less callers. There was also a time on like a 100 pot someone bet 15, you raised to like 40 or something. Maybe make that bigger in texas. Either way I like the graphics man keep it up

@garycooper5347 Жыл бұрын

Good luck Gil. But you need to look at the camera when you're off the table shots.
