There's shoving all in and calling all in, also early and late position. Also are you the first in, or are you coming over the top of someone. I'm developing a bit of a range for when I'm short stacked, 30bb, getting a lot of practice😁

Great advice. A lot of this centers around getting into limped pots, and I think the big, overall lesson here is "Never go broke in a limped pot". I play 3-4 tournaments a week at my local card room and I see these mistakes happen ALL the time. Nathan has nailed it once again.

My biggest weakness comes after the flop. If there is a possible straight on the board by the time we reach the river, my opponent will go all in. Rest assured that I am always holding the lower end of the straight in my hand, and I will call. I know calling is wrong, but have trouble laying it down. Most times I lose... It is my cryptonite.

I would wait til $200-$500 depends on your skill level and discipline example if you decide to move up to .10/.25 you have at least 8-20 buy ins. You want to have enough buy ins to feel comfortable for you to bluff and go all ins and hero calls in any situation.

Another huge problem with hitting a baby flush on the flop or turn is that another suited card comes up later. A baby flush might win with three suited cards, but it's almost certainly going to lose if there are four suited cards.

That's kinda of those hands where you probably want to to play only in good positions and very aggressively to negate all those lucky hands but it kinda depends on the flop. You can always step on the land mine there and you are risking loosing s big pot for a good chance to gain a small pot, it is very luck based so playing it moderately an maybe pressuring after a favorable turn for you could be the right call, but also it requires you to be able and give up the "great hand" if the table is unfavorable

@mrsinister8943 Жыл бұрын

I've seen many times where 1 or 2 opponents wouldn't have a straight even with 4 of a suite on the board and and me or someone else flopping a straight. Of course its all about their bet size. If they have A or K high straight then they will usually make a big raise and that's when you know to fold. If I flop a straight I try not to make it obvious cause then everyone will fold but I will limp to the turn or raise a little bit. Alot of players will fold no matter the raise. Its really just the Ace and King that you have to watch out for and especially the Ace. Its definitely better to win a small pot than lose a decent sized one.

I just busted out of a tournament with J 10 of spades. I raised and got 3 bet on the button by a very loose player and decided to jam. He had A 6 offsuit and called. I thought I was way behind and sure enough lost the hand. But now checking the Poker odds calculator it turns out it's a pure coin flip! 49.24 for J10 (spades) and 50.37 for A 6

@howard2031 2 жыл бұрын

If it is a loose limpy game, I try to raise a marginal suited connector like 87s or 54s pretty big to thin out the field. Suited connectors have breakeven ev and typically only make a little money near the button. But if you're folding them in the HJ or CO, you're being too nitty and people will notice. You do not want to overlimp with 76s and let T4s, J5s, Q7s, K2s come along and crush you with a bigger flush on the river...likely for your entire stack. I had K4s in the small blind at 1/3 the other day and there were three limps before BTN. BTN limped along with 87s instead of raising which let me see the flop. Five minutes later I was scooping his entire 100bb stack when the flush came in. If you raise or reraise a small SC preflop, there's probably 50% less of a chance you get out-flushed as typically only suited aces, suited Broadways, and maybe a couple of bigger suited connectors call. The suited trash that dominates you will mostly fold which is quite a large chunk of hands.

@paulpena5040 23 күн бұрын

Another problem with those smaller suited connectors besides flush over flush (which to be fair is kind of rare) is that even if you nail a flush , say on the turn. If another club hits the river your hand is pretty much dead now to virtually any club.

I think the one thing to keep in mind against players in low stakes who are literally shoving all their ranges.... AQ KJ might as well be aces. Your going to dominating their ranges. I consistently get it all in with AQ KJ and have my opp dominated. But I also make sure to to only do this against absolute fish

what if your short stacked and you getting value from limping calls surely that would be a good value bet. This only refers to A Q and only if you so short stacked that a couple more big blinds will make you all in anyway.

K-J is the Kirk Cousins of poker hands. It looks great until its up against anything decent and then it crumbles. I'm willing to get it in with AQ preflop if my opponent meets the following criteria: 1) Opponent an aggro nut who will ship anything preflop and Its profitable long term to stack off with them. Even then, I ask myself could i be a little patient keep it small preflop wait to hit top pair+ and let them ship light when im a bigger favourite. 2) My opponent is someone who is willing to make a lot of light 3-4 bets and will fold everything but the top of their range when I shove and I'm make enough profit by shipping AQ as a bluff (it blocks AA, QQ and AK) to justify getting stacked when my opponent has the goods. Even then, if my table selection is good, I sk, do I need to take this spot, or could I just wait a little bit for one of the fish to give me their money by doing fish things.

Hello Nathan, thanks for another great video. I have a question about the J9 on the KQT board. Whenever I get into a situation like this and when someone raises, I often put them on top pair or 2 pair hands that I can extract value with (in microstakes). I believe that players at this level quite oftenly would want to go all in with a 2 pair on this flop or even top pair top kicker like AK. In comparison someone with AJ, despite possible, is only a small subset of all possible hands they can have. I am not sure whether I’m winning or losing money by playing this situation this way, but do you think there’s a flaw in my logic?

I agree it seems very conservative to fold J9 on KQT. You’d have to be fairly deep stacked against a nit. Even then can you really say they don’t have KK/QQ/TT (maybe if they limped preflop) or KQ/KT/QT? The trouble is a lot of players will play all offsuit combos of AJ, so if you have J9 there’s still 12 combos. And you only have like 6% equity vs AJ.

No need to throw away 2nd nuts, I think what Nathan refers to is that: 1) don't go crazy on the spot and don't let yourself think that's your pot already, a board can pair later on or a flush comes out. 2) Just play with caution and try to read his hand, and if it's a nitty player trying to push all in on the flop you may consider folding because it's like 5BB - 7BB in the pot at this point and there's no need to throw away your stack.

@@user-eq3qf6ty6u that’s rarely how it goes though, 7BB to someone shoving all in for 200 BBs? Even if they did I’d probably still call, because does AJ really do that? It’s not like they know you’ve got J9.

Q9s, J9s, J8s, T8s...all are marginal hands at best because the straight or even the flush is not the nuts, but literally no one will fold these live for any amount because they are so pretty. I got stacked with Q9 versus AQ on the flopped straight... made me reevaluate. Not to mention all the times you flop a weak pair or a draw and it never gets there and you end up having to fold.

If we do 3betting with wide range (value & light 3-betting) in microstakes, should we have some light 5-betting All-in range (such as A5s) to prevent light 4-betting being profitable?

If you 5 bet only AA, KK, QO, AK you become very predictable. So you need some bluffs and A5s is a great one because card removal effect. But you should do this against a player who has a balanced 4 bet range. If the other player only 4 bets for value you dont need a balanced 5 bet range.
