I once got 2nd place in a megafield tournament online and won several 20% preflop allins; I once had a year when I ran 4 million chips under ev. It goes both ways when you play tournaments, sometimes you are lucky, sometimes not.

The only different opinion I share with this video is the QJo call for 8 BB shove. I play exclusively a ton of microstakes and most opponents are not shoving anywhere near a proper range for 8 BB in that type of spot, even when folded to on the button. QJo will be flipping or dominated quite often there from my experience. Some opponents would show up with QTs or J9s there but not many.

@LexVeldhuisTV Жыл бұрын

I think people go allin too much actually so I think the reverse is true. I think you're right when it comes to 12 bb shoves utg. But on the button people just yolo it in. I will bet my bankroll every lowstakes random shoves K3o on the button for 9bb for instance. Which they shouldnt

Let me preface this by saying you are 1000% a better poker player than I am. That said: At 10:50 I don't agree that 55 is a cold shove to win 2.6 BB with 4 unknowns and up to half your stack effective. I'd argue this is a 2.2x raise, calling to one jam, and otherwise navigating the flop. SB and BB are the most likely callers and you have position, you can easily C-bet the flop to get them to fold if the board is dry. Both the cutoff and the button are short and should be in fold/shove mode. I really doubt they peel 2.2x with anything less than two broadway cards (and even then they're probably 3-bet shoving, clearing out the field for your call). I feel like as played you're inviting trouble for a very marginal benefit and shoving is screaming "I have a small pocket pair or a big ace". Standard raising gives your hand a lot more ambiguity. Would love to hear your thoughts, cheers Lex.

Hi Lex, @ 7:04 you say: "You can just fold 22 33 44 55's" you mean raise/fold? Or auto fold pre-flop? (edit: I'm hesistant to even ask but it confuses me at times)

moin wants to tell you, quite clearly.... awesome videos from you man. thanks for taking the time to explain all this to us. i personally thanked bencb too. because you both brought my poker game to the top, just with your videos. I have been using RYE, GTO Wizard, Paired, Flopzilla for a year now. since this year we sit together 3 times a week and learn poker. since then my graph and Roj have gone so far up that i have to laugh myself. i've been playing poker for 20 years, i've won over 150,000 euros in cash games in 8 years, then i got the absolute rush at 4/10 euro blinds and lost over 60,000 again in 7 months. which was simply the reason why i switched to tournaments. since this year i've been practising absolute bankroll management. this means i play a maximum of 8doller tournaments on GG and have been doing so very successfully for a few months. But my goal is to crush live tournaments at some point, I play online on the side. thanks man. please keep it up... Greetings SH3RM4N

2:45 How many big blinds would you need in order to call that 3BB raise with a hand like 94s? 50+BBs? I gotta imagine that's an easy fold with a smaller stack, no?

@LexVeldhuisTV Жыл бұрын

It's actually harder to fold shorter. The negative impact is gonna be less severe. In deepstack it's more important to draw to the nuts. Also it's easier to realize your equity when you're shorter (means getting to showdown)

Lex, the problem on online poker is too many bad beats! From flop you get a set and the oponent nothing, and next 2 cards turn and river make the oponent winner! I don't get why the better card loose all the time against worst cards! I don't know what to belive, bus seems more like you play with bot. I played like medium tournaments before but now I play just small one cuz the poker online change the RNG with algoritm and this is a worst thing! Good to know, but the theory is not mached with reality în special online!

@jarirepo1172 Жыл бұрын

Only reason you get more bad beats than live is that you get to play way more hands and tournaments. It all evens out over time, as long as you play good. Live is probably softer and you won't get as many hands played there so much less likely for bad beats as well. Your mind and memory then condenses it and for same time played, indeed, much more unlikely things happend online - but you played way more hands as well.

@nicusordragne743 Жыл бұрын

@@jarirepo1172 I do not. What you will do when you have poker AA or K'K and the oponent put you all in? You folded? And 90% of hands like this, oponent make steight or flush! I make a review on my hands played and this is the result. Or t5o not play that hands and to fold?

@tonythrowaway3327 4 ай бұрын

9:41 LOL you play bad and get rewarded, that's just what it is. It's a bad raise in that spot, and a bad shove. Long term a losing play for which you risk 33% of your stack for the 20% chance of winning 66% of your stack (which then equals to 13% of your stack, effectively). So you risk 33% of your stack to win 13% additional (!). NOT good odds, don't know what you're talking bout.
