8 years ago? The content on this video is so good! I'm feeling very lucky for having found this in 2020!

this is probably the 20th time i am watching this. no better video is available for free about c-bets. makes it look so easy... hehe but yea we need to come back to this again and again. Cheers!

I have never commented on youtube... but i have to say, you are awesome dude... very informative and a great teacher. thank you for taking so much time to make these videos!

I am 12 years late on this. I have been playing poker for 20 years. And I picked up a ton of great tips in this one video. Thank you 👍

Your audio is the best. Sound like the chillest dude ever

I wish all poker videos were this clear. No fluff. Pure gold.

This is a very straight forward and simple way to make a solid play in every situation. Thank you man this changed my game tremendously in an upward way 🙏🍀🤝

Finally!! As a past school teacher, I can spot a good teacher a mile away. They are one that will explain terms as they go never assuming the audience knows what they are saying. Finally somebody that is a great teacher. I watch Daniel Negraenu (sp? don't care) and I can barely get past 2 minutes before I'm completely lost. So thank you!!!

Revisited and glad I did. I remember now where I received some valuable poker info, GRIPSED! Thx dude, again

Hey gripsed.I am a newb online poker player.I have lernt ALOT from your vids.I just wana say thanks personally,so thanks man.I plan to watch them ALL.

Great, timeless advice even 8 years later. Thank you for making such informative videos!

Very good video I notice many mistakes I made going to the cardhouse, very good lesson props to you man

Great lesson. I learned a lot.

THIS IS ACTUALLY HIS BEST AND MOST INFORMATIVE VIDEO OF THE SERIES.

Wow i needed this lesson more then ever i tell you. I started to finally make money in poker again, thank you alot.

As an amateur board texture is something I'm aware of but often don't pay enough attention to it. Thanks brother this video helped a lot.

is this casually explained?

Thank you for making this video it helped me very much!

Solid info. Especially like the fact you're an advocate of the donk bet ;)

Poker tips and strategy are great. Just remember that short term, variance - luck - can play a huge part as to whether you take a pot or not. If the donk doesn't fold, no matter what you throw at him, the chances of you taking that pot go down. This is because in the short term, luck will help him more than it will help you.

Thanks a lot for the videos, I'm watching your videos as review and I really like how you, opposed to other videomakers, explain why you are doing what you are doing instead of just saying "make this play because its standard". For example, a lot of people always say "Dont donk bet, its bad", but I like how you go over when donk betting is appropriate and why it is appropriate. Thank you sirrrrr

2020 Anyone? (Btw this was posted 8 years ago)

Great video, answered so many questions for me

Really good info, I liked the part where you were saying to be more aggressive on dry boards. I never thought of that before. I am going to start doing that more bc as you said its unlikely your opponent hit that flop.

I watched this video, 2 hours and taking 10x the buy in, I thought I better leave a comment and a thank you!

I myself have listened and learned and read a bit about poker, ver casual player but play quite like this. It definitely works if you keep focused as he says on the nuts when to fold when you should know you are beat and to end pots early. I really learned the style from how I play civilization 5. Also in pokerstars you have labels (colors that actually stick to players I think forever, so you can swiftly identify players even before hitting the tables. I always WatchKit for the 3rd world sandwich or the Russian roulette, maybe I’m paranoid byt I keep track of the nationalities to make sure I stay out of teams that may have comms. Especially at the start. No offense it just helps to know eachothers language when someone’s hustling you .On party poker this was really hard to avoid. also use the notes feature, describe what you think at first analyse the bigger holders are they playing high game or low players. Attempt a cheeky blind steal in 0.02/0.01$ you can wipe away any bad cards before the flop. And it’s cheap. What helped me the most in the end is knowing your position more thsn anything and choosing you seat when you can. Happy coronapoker to you all!

Another thing about dry boards is that you can typically cbet smaller on them as a bluff, especially if you're also value betting them smaller... which makes sense because you don't have to charge draws bad odds to chase and it's easier to scare the opponent away. (Although I bet big on the monotone flops usually)

It's a good vid with a lot of key important things in, it can be hard to sit through because of the presentation but for someone like me I'm happy to listen and learn some free advice, thank you.

Wow 2012, the year of cool guys' poker .

what about with microstakes. Doesnt the fishes tendencies to only call and never fold reduce this plans effectiveness?

Amazing video Evan. Could you give some tips on playing with the lead on the flop when opponent bets first please. You explanation is great for when the villain checks. However, i am still a bit confused what to do when they bet since i will miss the flop about 2/3 times and the opponents at my home games tend to bluff regardless of position

i find that the problem with cbetting dry boards is that you will get raised or check-raised quite a bit by aggressive players putting you in a really tough situation no matter what you have. seems to me that c-betting is all about balance because it can become pretty obvious...gotta mix it up. i usually c-bet a lot no matter what (except against 3 or more opponents), just vary the sizing by betting bigger on wetter boards to get rid a lot of the weaker draws and small pair type of hands that have a way of making life miserable. on a dry board you are usually either way ahead or way behind so i dont think risking a lot on dry boards makes sense.

Thank you very much, some great information for people trying to absorb and learn the game.

Crystal explained, thank you so much for your video!

What exactly is meant by playing with the lead/without the lead?

Thanks a lot for the great info! Do you have a video about check-raising? Thanks again - keep stackin.

this is the best flop strategy ive ever read!

Good video. Thank you. Please leave the Slurpee at 7-11.

lol thx for the insight on how bluffers play im always folding to these player types unless i hit im gonna call down and go bust more now :D

Excellent mate. Thanks

Better in general to win the pot immediately, or go to showdown?

But in low limit games, if you open with a mid range poker pair and an Ace falls, it's tough to C-bet because low limit players play so passive and would just flat call pre flop with AK, AQ and AJ, they don't re raise pre flop so its tough to put low limit players on hands.

I just landed on this video but give me valuables information as few videos in my entire poker studies. Thank you man

May I ask you if A and 2 small or middling cards is not suitable for range betting?

thankl you!

thanks for the video, i enjoy learning from your knowledge

one quick q evan, regarding c bets, i see what u mean by the board texture but obv we should still bet with top pair weather its dry or wet on flop right?😊

This is a great video. Thank you.

Thanks for posting this, some helpful concepts well explained.

Good voice I’m w you bro many good points for beginners, you’re a good guy. Can we talk a about rakes? As an advanced player the rakes are always cutting into my livelihood. What’s your take on the rakes?

please keep it coming. great vid! i watched it a few times

really good video! thank you so much, now i'm not mad when i don't connect with the flop

Duc I like to call and take one card to see the turn if not to pricey ...that might slow villian down ....Then if he checks the turn I lead out to test him ,depending what card comes of course, keeping in mind that he was the raiser and had a good chance of hitting that flop.But many times he will fold to the 4th street lead out having raised with a midsize pocket pr or suited connectors. Either way That turn bet gets you a ton of info and maybe even a free card on the river If he thinks he might be beat , GL

Thank you

Excellent GOTDAMN video!!!!

Best video of this kind. 👍🏾

that's so good

how about calling with a medium/kinda-big pairs out of position, and high cards dropped? Say, calling with TT and flop came Axx

Excellent video ... thank you for the post

Another helpful vid - keep em comin brah!!

absolute poker guru!

OK, so at ~3 mins I have a problem. Say you bet full pot. Pot stands at 1k, you bet 1k. Either the opponent bets, or he folds. If he folds, you win 100% of course. If he calls, then the pot stands at 3k. You need to win 1 in 3 overall for this to work, not 1 in 2 as the video suggests. Am I missing something?

Probably nobody will reply as its an old video, but what if we donk lead a wet board in which we have a draw or top pair, and the preflop raiser raises us? Do we call draws if we are getting the right price? But what should we be folding here? Top pair? Low draws?

gripsed ur a boss. keep the videos coming.

How do you get %20 fold equity when you get raised with middle/small pp ? Please explain

thank you so much. great video

Very good info !!!

nice presentation .. full marks!

What does he mean by saying "unraised pots"? Is that a spot where everyone limped pre and wasn't pre flop open raise or it means that if we didn't open raise pre but someone else did and we just flatted then it means that pot is unraised?

What is dry board and what is wet bird?

Great video, great lesson. Made a lot of notes, really looking forward to putting these techniques into action. Thanks a lot man.

what does tourney pre flop shoving when you got other people covered got to do with optimal post flop play? pour me a cup too..

Wonderful

I don't fully understand "Playing with the lead" what is the lead? does that mean youre out of position and going first?

great stuff...but isnt leading out into a raiser a donk bet? what are advantages of donk betting?

Thank u!

really really helpful video thanks man :)

He will raise your leads more often and mainly wait until he catches nuts and stack you.

Congratulations on a great video! 🗨 I know where you can get more than 95 free spins.Best choice. Fantastic fun ! Congrats on the bonus wins and the jackpot ! Wow what amazing Buffy amounts ! -PS we shared this just now 😊

I’m confused with the first part, wouldn’t it be switched around with the cards you’d want to bet on? Because if you already raised and they liked their cards enough to see the flop, couldn’t you assume they have some higher cards?

video helped a lot!

Great Content.... thx

Surely two suited cards on flop means this is a wet board? Why only straights potential?

i use to think i was the unluckiest player at any table, then i learned about c-betting and realized how bad my play was. i would fold 99% of flops if i didnt hit, i had no idea how bad i was getting owned. just thought i was unlucky, ROFL. Not only a good vid, but great channel bro! thank you. Playing a 400$ MTT on 7-19-13....ill let ya know about how i do

"the lead" is referring to position on your opponent in this video, or?? Great video btw

Hi there why does everyone " gurus" assume when you raise preflop you only get called by 1 or 2 , i played in a tournament , where no matter how much i raised preflop i was called by 6 minimum my preflop raises started at 5 bb but with my KK hand i raised 10 bb, 7 callers then on a dry but A high flop i was donked into for half pot ,

Does the flop come out after all players bet as well as when all players check?

The bluff king

Great vid, thank you :)

when are you qoing to quit.

When you say playing with the lead are you taking about pfr or position? Because it doesnt make much sense. Could you clarify? Your talking about check raises when you dont have the lead but how can you do that when you act last?

So what you meant to say is that gripsed is a smart guy and that he has good solid tips/advice. And then you go on to say that he sounds like good solid professional poker player like yourself and only yourself because the rest of us are donks lol. Then lastly you apparently have a video where you have a 66, and three others have AA,JJ, and 10,10 and you end up winning, with most likely a straight... well that sounds about right..

The guy talking sounds like Kbilly Super Sounds of the 70's! (Reservoir Dogs) lol... but on a serious, good video.

Nice guide. I play small stakes MTTs on Poker Stars, usually 2-4 of them at the same time. Starting with 1500 chips and blinds at 20/10, usually the stack quickly falls below 40BB. My problem: I have very little information on opponents for several reasons (few hands played, frequent table change etc.) and I don't use forbidden stat trackers. How to play when you have no or insufficient information on your opponents?

Should I ever bet a draw?

Do all players have to put the same amount of money into the pot before the flop comes out?

I agree..
