Why should we use smaller bet sizes in multiway pots? 🤔

One of my most favourite videos by Jonathon . Clear and easy to understand . Think it’s so important to realise that when you get called sometimes and bust , that doesn’t mean you played it badly . Thanks again .

last week was my first time playing in 7 yrs , went up against 40 in a small afternoon tourny, i came in 8th on the bubble , just missing my first cash. So i went back and listened to Jonathans audio book ,"master the small stacks game" and now i realize how many mistakes i made. With the knowledge gained from your book. im just a small stakes player , and i plan to dominate the small stacks games. Jonathan im excited to finally play this game smart and win these tournaments, especially the cash games. You are the best.

This is so relevant to these fish ponds in low-stakes. Awesome content Jonathan, thank you as always

"You have to proceed with caution!" (Jams every 2nd hand)

One of my favorite videos you have posted. I love when you have examples

Thank you. You have triggered a thought process on one of your very insightful points that has me rethinking a specific scenario.

I love the practice hands

Love that you inform very directly to the audience: air-ball betting is no good! Towards the end of video: Q7❤goes all-in (Air-ball bet, we have a blocker potential and position) “Oh no…such is life! (Aggressive loss then conceded-lmao) Did they have Top pair (6)? GREAT REVIEW WITH YOU as always Jonathan!

I feel like multi way pots is a leak in my game. Thank you JL for this helpful video! Keep them coming 😊

Thank you for using these stack sizes!! Perfect

Your a awesome poker teacher I've excelled my game watching your free videos

Awesome! More Multiway stuff please!

Nice video! Videos regarding Multiway pot in deep cash game could be interesting. Thanks

I been waiting for this one..... bc at lower stakes, there are alot of multi way pots.... everyone calls to see the flop

Personally, I prefer longer videos so don't feel bad about making something 45 minutes or even longer. Your videos are very instructional and you're a very good teacher. At least for me that is.

Nice video, but how can you say 80BB is deep - lol Please show some stack sizes that cash players use such as 200BB stacks.

Love the information but a little confused. One of the first post flop strategies you mention for multi-way pots is far less continuation betting but you continuation bet like 90% of your examples. And even ones you checked you ended up check raising.

learnt a lot. Thank you Jonathan

Perfect for small stakes play

Preflop, even AA chance of winning drops precipitously the more people are in the pot - by the time you hit 3 callers, you're almost down to a coin flip, 4 callers and you're below even odds. And although you are best in and getting much better odds than you need (so of course you are going to play) that's the reason you should be aggressive on the front end to whittle down the field and improve your chances - but careful on the back end with so many still in. AA is still just one pair. But I bring it up mainly to illustrate just how much your equity drops multiway and how much stronger you need to be to proceed post. Personally, I'd much rather play medium pairs and suited connectors with more than 2 opponents, because I'm looking for sets and better to push the pot. Premium hole cards, I'm looking to narrow the field if I can. Kind of the whole point of 3 betting, really - chase out the weaker stuff.

Squeeze pre with the off suit broadway to avoid multiway spots and I also 3 bet with my suited wheel aces as bluffs to get it heads up where a cbet will take it down a large majority of the time.

Very happy to hear all in for the Kings one.

I love the Pokers! ❤️

So I watched this yesterday. Got in a little tourney online. And after playing well for 2 hours, I completely overvalued a q6 suited I 3 bet on the button into a multi way pot that flopped my flush draw. I promptly lost to a higher flush 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️ Apparently forgetting everything you said in this tutorial 😅😅 So… we watch it again 😂

Thank you for all the fantastic content, I will be trying a month subscription soon just to freshen up.. my big problem atm is maintaining a massive stack I've acquired, and running deep with it. Any videos on maintaining your stack without punting? 😅😂

Great video. Are your range charts available to download?

Thanks for the video Jonathan! I was surprised with the A2 of spades bluffing on the button. It may be a good bluff but it seems too scary. I feel like in micro and small stakes people are just going to call me on the river most of the times with a pair of kings and a bad kicker or some people will even with a smaller pair. Anyways, I might attempt to do it.

Thankyou!

This is every pot at Tampa hard rock 1/2 1/3 and less often 2/5

Is this for tournaments? I don't know a single live-game player who considers 80 BBs to be deep stack. That's normal stack. Deep stack is 200+ BBs.

I really like this video, great info.

With that K9HH hand is calling the turn bet ever ok or is check raising all in always the preferred method?

31:17 how do you lose?

I feel like you are analyzing this at the wrong stack depths. The "raise and get 4 callers" phenomenon is something endemic to the 1/2 and 2/5 cash game streets where you are much more likely to see 100+BB stacks, and there's probably only that one guy who is so short as 40 or 20 BB. This seems like tournament strategy analysis, which is less relatable to most of us. I might play 1/2 or 2/5 several times a week, but tournaments only every now and then.

I thought your almost never calling out of small blind to a lp open. Is this mainly a tournament strategy?

When you say top pair with QJ in a 4 way pot is not a good hand, I totally understand that. But now there is presumably about 10-12 BBs in the pot (tournament with antes). If the UTG raiser bets 25% pot, and there are two more callers, before it’s my decision, I don’t see how I can just fold top pair when the pot is now around 20BBs. I think I would be more inclined to fold if it’s like Jh9h3d where I don’t have QJ of diamonds.

Why do we 3bet more linearly with more people in the pot as opposed to polarised?

Why 40bbs deep button vs UTG8 raise and CO call we have TT all in but JJ+ not?

What does UTG8 mean? i’m very confused

What if it’s either a min raised multi way pot or limped pot where you’re on the button then would it be okay to call with something like K10os because of the great pot odds?

With 40bbs does shoving range increase even more with more than 1 caller?

6:20 wonder why Tens only are always a shove there. Now I Know where Ryan DePaulo Learned that play.

Hey Jonathan, why is Ace 8 suited rated so much higher of a raising hand than Ace 7 suited (which says to fold 1/2 the time)? @4:21 for reference in the chart. Flush wise you'd have the nut flush, and the 7 or 8 won't make a difference and neither helps make the lower straight. I'm trying to understand if the 8 kicker plays that much more often than the 7 kicker in this scenario. (both are really top pair marginal kicker if an Ace hits and there's a raise and a call).

💯💯💯

Bet small on a dynamic board, multiway.

You want to play these pots in POSITION as much as POSSIBLY 😊

So, in theory, if you are what is basically a free fake money game where everyone is basically playing nearly 80% of their hands to a limp and you are on the BTN you are also over limping probably everything AJs and below and TT and below? I ask this because in my local cardroom for the MTTs they have there is a lot of limping and multi way pots, and I really don’t like trying to isolate in position with a hand like KJs because most of them call and I find myself in a 5-way bloated pot.

Well, 3 players after the flop is not really "multiway". What about if there are 4+ players? A small raise after- or even preflop will not push out many, as they only need to pay a little to potentially win a lot.

At 21:03 why is that a spot we want to bet big? The straight & flush missed, I feel like if they chased it they are always folding to an all in & only going to call you if they happen to get a two pair like jack queen or a set. Top pair + top kicker might call, but even that is pushing it? What is the need to go all in for?

What does UTG8 mean?

Why does AJs never get raised but A10s does approx. 40 percent of the time?

Audio :(

I really needed this…been running into problems over defending my big blind multiway & playing too loose post flop in multiway pots. Thanks J Little 🫡🔥

Stop saying "shove it"!
