5 BEST "Big Money" Poker Hands (Don't Fold These!)

[@BlackRain79Poker]

What are your favorite "big money" poker hands? Also, never make these 3 basic betting mistakes (Costing you money!): kzbin.info/www/bejne/d3mnfXWwmcZqgLs

[@alexepen2273]

Hi Nathan - what is an online poker site that you would recommend for cad game?

[@drdrayfromla99]

Mine is 4-5, suited or unsuited. I’ll only call or do a single raise if I’m in late position with them, otherwise it’s a fold. This hand by far has made me the most money of any hand in my poker career. Can’t tell you how many times I’ve flopped a straight, turned two pair or rivered a four to the straight with this hand. Very difficult for opponents to put me on a straight especially in the last scenario if I’m getting the right odds to call down.

[@DominationRotation]

My favorite things about these "big money" poker hands are the reverse implied odds! Keep teaching this kind of stuff, it's great for my pockets.

[@Ironichange]

Deuce five. Only play long enough to see the flop. Ace 3 4 happens more then people realize and it kills ppl holding an ace. I knocked out 4 ppl at once with this hand. Only see a flop if it's cheap though

[@jack42011]

Love playing Jacks personally and J10.... As my namesake I have had better than average luck with the Jacks, especially against overpairs when hitting sets on the flop in all in situations. J10 just hits so many good hands... and it has a Jack in it. Just trashed KK earlier today with AJ hitting trips... little bit of luck always helps, was online tourney and he was in the small, I was in the big, he didn't four bet with KK... his problem.

[@christophercyr6447]

100% Agree! I've watched hundreds of poker training videos and yours are the clearest and most effective especially for the games most people are going to play which are live low stakes games. The hand rankings that are presented in most training videos simply don't take in account things like "hand disguise ability" and ease of getting away from a loser post flop. I love pocket 2's. You hit a set with a flop that also includes an ace or a king and you probably just staked somebody. You miss and you lose a small preflop bet. 6-7 suited is also great hand for multiple ways it can make huge hands including the well disguised trips like you mentioned. Great stuff...keep it up!

[@DominationRotation]

It's fine if you're playing 100-200BB structured cash games. But once you hit the deep stacked games and reverse implied odds become a thing, you'll think a little differently.

[@DominationRotation]

@Ukrainian Patriot I was not necessarily referring to suited connectors, because these are vital for board coverage in deep structured CG. Neither will you tipically find J6s/J5s in 3!/4! Pots, you also don't get stacked when hitting a pair, meaning reverse implieds don't really apply, quite the opposite- you hit pretty disguised straights that don't correlate with you're oppositions range (except for 89s which can hit the bad end of a straight vs AK/K9s on QJ10).

[@DominationRotation]

@Ukrainian Patriot 3-bet/4-bet pots

[@BlackRain79Poker]

Well said, thanks for watching my poker videos!

[@HolyHeartsMusic]

Man, you've helped me improve so much. Only been watching your videos for a week or so and I've improved massively. Ironing out those amateurish mistakes. On road ;) thanks dude :)

[@BlackRain79Poker]

Glad to help!

[@oscargonzales333]

One thing that I’ve found to help these types of hands hold up, if you decide to play them, is to thin the playing field down considerably by pre flop raising as if you’re holding a big pocket pair. Just have to be confident in your post flop game play and hopefully are in good position as well.

[@happyriver9986]

I agree with your selection of hands but to say "Don't fold these" is kinda misleading. Sure you want to play these hands but preferably in position and also with the right odds. The unseasoned player after watching this video might misunderstand and be calling 50-100bb all ins with these hands. Or call 7bb raises with only 30bb behind. I would just add the following to clarify for the less experienced: 1. Don't fold these when there's only ONE RAISE. For example someone before you raises to 3 big blinds, you absolutely cannot fold these hands. 2. Don't fold these when you have 10x more in your stack vs what you have to call. Let's say the raise is to 7bb, and both you and the raiser has 70bb or more. 3. But if even if the raise is higher than 1/10 of your stack, if there are multiple callers before you, you can call with these speculative hands, because their combined stacks makes the odds favor you more compared to if it were just vs one other player. If there's a reraise, meaning say someone raised to 3bb, another guy makes it 10bb, then "Don't fold these" IF: 4. That point 2 and 3 above are true 5. You're the last one to act. Meaning after you call, no one else can raise anymore. 6. If you're in position, meaning the raiser and callers have to act after the flop before you do These are just slightly improved generalizations that DO NOT apply all the time. But it at least will be a simpler rule of thumb for those who are experimenting with expanding their ranges.

[@saltydog9321]

poker has changed a lot i guess. I played a lot 10-15 years ago. I was never in a hurry to call a reraise with small pairs or a 76. Has there been some kind of revolution in poker over the last 10 years? I was a strong player and i seem to remember just trying not to call that much. period. Play big cards and raise with them, play big cards and be aggressive. Is that old school now?

[@fireinfireout]

@@saltydog9321 you will get crushed if you play like you describe

[@djones2170]

@@saltydog9321 yeah, Negreanu made a video where he was talking about it pretty much everyone raised with AA, KK, QQ, AK, and called or folded everything else, then on a dry flop 3,7,9, rainbow or something the Pocket Pairs would all bet and the AK would normally check so you could tell if the preflop raiser had a made hand or not, plus with social media there's been so much information spread that now the game is played more in terms of ranges, you play within a range (which can vary based on position at the table) and putting your opponents on a range, with the UTG position being the tightest and either the button or big blind being the loosest depending who you talk to, but yeah poker has gotten very complex, it's a very cerebral game almost like you're doing detective work trying to figure out what the clues mean.

[@saltydog9321]

@@fireinfireout yea sure

[@Silverholic]

Hum... A3 suited.... if you hit your ace it's a very hard hand to play. There is no way of knowing if you are against a bigger ace or not. It's great if you make a flush or a wheel but hitting the ace only is not a good thing with that hand IMO.

[@havu2236]

It's really weak A went you hit it on the flop. You can bet but a hard call when check raised or re-raise.

[@conor7179]

You just slow play it if you hit the A and fold if the pot gets too big. You can also look for weakness if you don't hit and bluff. The point is there's multiple options to win and an easy fold if needed to too.

[@byronwilliams943]

He has mentioned that before in another video

[@FeloMB]

Just play it as a marginal hand. Check call, more when you have straight and flush draws

[@momsaid]

It’s actually pretty easy. You fold to any serious pressure, control the pot size so you can bet for value without playing a massive pot with a pair and a weak kicker. The kicker being weak sucks but it actually makes the hand easy. You open from the CO, get called by the bb. The flop 79A two spades(you don’t have spades). This isn’t super hard to play. If your c bet gets raised you probably just muck without reads

[@cryptogolfer8407]

Makes a ton of sense for playing deep stacked poker. No sense calling with these hands if there's only one or so pot sized bets left as there's not enough implied odds to justify calling preflop. I'm sure that was implied in the video just not mentioned.

[@B0bi_007]

he mostly implies deepstack cash game poker, so yeah and you are right.

[@mumblesbadly7708]

And also when in position versus the villian.

[@ericaarseth7678]

One of my favorite drawing hands is 10-J suited or not 10-J will never make a bad straight. If you make a straight with 10-J it will always be the best possible straight. I do like to set mine with small to medium pocket pairs too. I will see a flop cheaply as possible then check - fold to the first bet if I miss my set. No set, no bet! same with the medium suited connectors. usually fold the smaller ones pre-fop like 2-3 or3-4 etc.

[@dylanhom58]

FWIW JT always makes the best straight when using both cards, it can still get coolered on straights only using the J or T and in a raised pot villain will have the hands that cooler us in their range. JT is also often dominated when it makes top pair in a raised pot putting us on the hook for a lot of money when we're playing deep. You could argue we need to be disciplined and fold often when we make a single pair and face significant action, but if we're often folding TP against strong opponents we're going to run into a whole other issue

[@thisismagacountry1318]

He was the big blind (the bettting just went around to me, i called the BB, the small blind raised, and the big blind reraised big. I foled, the SB called the reraise). I might have been able to push him off the hand after the flop with a big raise, but if it goes all the way to the river, I lose a big hand after flopping a set with pocket 2s.

Nathan. While 22 33 44 55 are great hidden hands at low stakes $1-3 at 100-big blinds. What do you think about higher limits full ring with 200bb 300bb should we worry about set-over-set? I play lower pairs only from the Hijack position +, open raise. (vs 4 villains max). What do you think?

[@simplyxskilled]

im a donkey fish but i just try to open late with anything smaller than pocket 6's and then only defend against less than 3.5x raises. for example if im playing one of my 5/10 dolla 1k i can open against a reg filled table with 44 from the hj (like you mentioned) ,and then depending on who and where the 3-bet comes from, defend against a 3x and fold to 4x. The tricky part for my small brain self is playing these bottom sets in heads up pots because of not having 10/1 very often in those spots like BlindvBlind. Sometimes against more aggressive turn players i'll call a bit large on the turn because small stakes dont typically bluff rivers.

[@thakurv1]

How do you set mine in 6max poker ? It’s difficult to get paid off via multi-way pots, and there is aggressive action on the flop. 77 has the equity edge on AK but that’s all in PF. it’s hard to pLAY 77 through 3 streets without a set or straight draw , because more than half of the cards will give a higher pair, if you’re not already up against one. How can you realize the equity of 77 ESP in 6max? Are you looking to call in position to set mine and position bet ? Or are you coming in raising to disguise the hand ? It’s hard to show down 77. 99 is tough enough.

Would you call a 3bet with any of these? And against who?

[@asb3pe]

This is an excellent question but I think in general the answer would be "no" for the mid- and small-pairs but "yes" for the suited connectors and suited aces since they have multiple ways to hit flops. Since Nathan's point is all about cracking someones aces here, then I think we should assume that anyone who holds aces preflop will be 3-betting them if given the opportunity to do so... and therefore I would say yes, we can call a 3-bet. As always in poker, it really depends upon position and how many others are involved in the pot to give us better pot odds to see a flop.

[@cjparrott]

@@asb3pe yeah i completely agree. i call pairs and suited connectors to a 3 bet depending on opponents vpip/af, my position, if it's multiway (pot odds) and how massive the bet is. they're good cards against maniacs and nits..... and flop decisions are pretty easy. if i do get a decent draw and opponent is sufficiently deep, i would check/call a cbet and wait for turn/river

You gotta know what you’re doing to play that 10-9s.

[@B0bi_007]

Absolutely agree. I think putting it on this list is bad advice.

[@asb3pe]

you gotta know what you're doing to play winning poker, period. 🙂

[@simplyxskilled]

@@B0bi_007 why? why play poker if you dont look at lists? even if the list is wrong, its good for you because you learn. Its a fold button and a raise button. JTs makes TP more often than 67s but thats all. both are mega ultra uber playable

9 10 suited has made me alot of money

[@jdavidwebb]

Great video, man. I watched it and kept it in mind during today's session. Yeah I lost a few small pots on the flop, but it all paid off when my 76s nutted on the flop and got paid BIG. And you're dead right that it's tilting. I got cussed out hard.

[@jasonisfamous6544]

Sounds like you play with a pos

[@jdavidwebb]

@@jasonisfamous6544 That's where the money is!

[@joseluizpereirafilho7222]

@@jdavidwebb Nice! I'll try it out tomorrow. I was playing only the top 20% hands but i am already feeling that the disguised hands are where the true money lies, even more than the premium ones.

I had difficulty focusing on one eye and completely lost track of the video

[@paulmontoya71]

Hello Nathan, I see all your videos, happy 2022 by the way. If someone 3bet my T9s, 77, A3s... I don't have to fold? I mean how much we can resist with this hands?

[@xertion4870]

It really depends on how deep you are and if you are in position or not. Speculative hands you do not want to call big preflop bets with not much behind in your stack...

[@TheTedMeister]

10-9s is great against players of all levels.

What is the difference between A2s and A3s? You say A2s is fishy hand, but A3s is big money hand.

[@johnmar6376]

None of the non-pair hands are in your video 'how to win at poker every time' please explain.

[@Trust_but_Verify]

Account for being counterfeited with low pair which we have seen pretty often.

[@jasonmoskowitz2015]

Does this advice hold for tourney play as well? I’ve been calling large raises w 77 since I watched this video and losing half my stack, which is almost impossible to recover from. Or should I only be applying this to cash grinds?

[@muzzan1448]

How many times have you done it though? A hand full of times or 100+? It's 20% over AA over time. That doesn't mean if you've lost 4 times in a row, you'll hit the next time. It's every time it's 20%. You might go 30 or 40 times without hitting, but then 8-10 times in a row. Tourney's you need to be more in the period where you win those hands IMO.
