Your pot odds and equity for the QJ hand on KT3 flop was incorrect actually. I use to make the same mistake. You actually have 18% equity going to the turn, which is just one card. You have 32% equity for the full run out (2 cards) Technically you don't have direct odds to call but you have implied odds going to the turn. Just thought I should put that out there since its a common mistake and it cost me quite a bit of money and thought floating was actually a really profitable play than it actually was vs. certain bet sizings Other than that, Keep up with the good work, i think many players can learn from your thought process

16% is the simplified version (2% per out). The exact would be 2,27% per out, giving him 18,18%. And of course he has the correct odds to call even without implied odds. 82 times he loses $20 = $1640, 18 times he wins $115 = $2070. When played 100 times he is up $430. Seems +EV to me.

@@IbeatGTO where did you get winning $115? Wrong! He's winning $75 (??). That is 21% risk with 18% equity. Without implied odds, calling here is a losing action. If A comes down on turn, (you complete your draw) but, better say "good bye" to your implied odds,...he is not gonna pay you anything. So: this hand is best to fold, bro. Or bluff him off! Shove, and see whether he is gonna call with one pair.

I can't stress how important Tip#5 is where you set the max buy-in per day and do NOT ever go over it because honestly most of the money I lost in poker and gambling, in general, be it sports betting or casino table games, are due to the chasing money!!! From experience, it is quote rare "to get it all back" once you start chasing the initial loss that day :-/// Honestyly, if I can have all the money I spent "chasing" in my life, I'd be at least a quarter mill richer haha ;-)

8:53 Tip #4 is actually wrong and what I used to think until I read Essential Poker Math by Alton Hardin. The whole point of calculating equity and pot odds is comparing whether your chances of drawing are greater than the amount of money you need to commit *for that particular decision*. So in this case *since you are not going all in on the flop* your percentage chance to draw to improve *on the flop* for the amount of money you are committing *to see just the turn* is approximately 2*outs as a percentage = 2 * 8 = 16%. Your pot odds calculation here was correct because *for this decision* you are putting in $20 to win $95 total (including your bet) = 21%. But your conclusion is incorrect. Based purely on equity and pot odds this was an unprofitable decision. Now IF you were going all in on the flop then your equity is 4*outs as a percentage, but then your pot odds would be different since what you are committing into the pot and what you stand to win would be different.

For example, calculate the pot odds of risking $100 to win $100 of someone else’s money *as a percentage*. It’s 50%. Calculating pot odds as a percentage makes it easier to compare to the *percentage* chance to draw to your outs given the *2 and *4 rules of thumb because they give you the chance also as a *percentage*.

Hey @NorCalPoker, another great video, I just wanted to say that I'm pretty sure your pot odds explanation is off a bit, You're supposed to only calculate your odds of completing your draw on the next card, because if you don't you assume 32% equity without factoring in the money you may have to pay to see the river, making your overall equity irrelevant on the flop. Second, you also aren't supposed to factor your own bet into the pot, for instance, here you're betting 20 to win 75, because the other 20 dollars is still in your stack and therefore can't be factored into the pot. I could also be completely wrong, but no matter what I love your vids!

Let's say the pot is $3, your opponent goes allin for $3. You have to call $3. If you include your call in the total pot , the pot is $9. You divide your call ($3 / $9), which gives you 33%. That is the same answer as if you have to call 3 to win 6 (ratio of 1:2 so you need 33% ) but easier to calculate.

Good Vlog. I agree that the pot odds calculation is off. You can only calculate odds for turn because you are putting in $20 to see the turn card so equity is 16% not 32%. I sill think it's a good call because you have implied odds of winning more money if you hit the straight but that's more guess work and based on opponent tendencies.

1st hand: don’t triple barrel bluff, they’ll call you with one pair. 3rd hand: with top top, my hand can only go for two streets of value Sure, he happened to have the draw this time, but the reasoning seems inconsistent. The second board might seem scarier to you because the obvious draw did get there, but from villain’s perspective the first one is probably scarier. So if you shouldn’t bluff the first because he’ll call with too many kings, you should also expect to get called by KQ, KJ, KT, K9, on the third. If you’re choosing not to bet because you think it’s likely villain does have the straight, that’s something else.

Tip #5 (or any tip that includes “always”) is bogus. It is true that (1) you should stop playing if your mental game is off, and (2) you are likely to be a bit off after suffering a lot of losses, even if you don’t think you are. So yeah, setting a stop loss is a good idea a lot of the time. If you find yourself thinking about chasing your losses, you should probably be leaving instead. But you shouldn’t *always* leave. The sessions I have needed to add on the most are the sessions that I’m playing in the best game - i.e., when there are several players each consistently doing something wrong but just running hot. Like if I see a guy call a pot-sized all-in bet on the turn with < 20% equity, and he just gets lucky a few times, I’m hitting the ATM. Sometimes I end up losing a bit more, but my biggest wins came from sessions that started as my biggest losses.

You run as bad as I have this year. It's amazing how poorly you have typically run vs how great McClusker usually runs. He hardly ever runs into these tough losing hands you're always running into.... missing huge draws in big pots as the favorite...getting Aces consistently beat, whacked by sets Etc. I've lost four very significant pots of between $500 -$1,000 over my last ten sessions playing 1/2/straddle 5/ max buyin $400... getting it all-in on the turn heads-up going to the river as a 90%+ favorite each time.... but losing all four of those big pots to 2 or 3 outers...this game can be incredibly brutal. Keep your head up, I like your process. Only thing I would say about your math equity vs drawing explanation is you also need to factor in the implied odds if you hit your hand based on the stack sizes, the specific opponent, the way the hand played etc.... along with your chances of occasionally representing a different draw getting there on the river versus the one were actually drawing to as a possible very effective river Bluff. There are many times I know I'm drawing at 5-1 or maybe even slightly worse than the 3-1 I'm paying to see the river, but based on stacks and the way the hand played to that point I'm very confident of getting paid more on the river than my actual turn drawing odds of 4-1, 5-1 etc when I hit.

Tip #11: Raise small from early positions and big from later positions. I don't like the $12 raise from UTG with QJs. It's a technical mistake. I raise $8 from early, $10 from LJ/HJ and $12 from CO/BU in $1/3 games. Also, I don't like the 3bet with 88 to $100. It's a dream scenario for a call. 3 players already in the pot and you have position. Now think about how much money you can make when hitting the 8. If not, so what? If you what to 3bet then 3bet small. When UTG pushes all in the 2 callers are in a very tough position because if they just call you can reshove. Also, if a player in the blinds wakes up with a hand you can easily fold. 😉

I dislike my sizing in the 88 hand but I respectfully disagree. The UTG player was opening super wide & the other players just called so I knew I had the best hand more often than not. So when that’s the case, I put more money in the pot! But I do like your sizings from EP, that’s pretty unique!

@@NorCal_Poker The idea with the raise sizes are pretty much GTO. You raise small from early because 1. if you get called, you play a smaller pot oop because oop it is hard to realize your equity 2. if you get 3bet the 3bet is smaller and therefore it's cheaper to call (for set value for instance) You raise big from late because 1. SB/BB will fold more often 2. SB/BB will 3bet less and call more because a 3bet should be 4x and that makes it very expensive. If they just call you play a bigger pot and you can make use of you positional advantage.

Well played, in a bad session, Not much you can do there. I cheered out loud when you caught the heart on the qj flush straight . Only thing I would say is in your 45 straight/ flush draw, unless you have a read, play your equity instead of leading. Even though you are the favorite, it's a coin flip and when you miss you are playing 5 high. Also when calculating odds, when i learned it decades ago...it's times 2+2 meaning 16% is actually 18%. Not much but might just be enough sometimes. If you're still in LA there's lots of card houses and casinos to play. Commerce and the Bicycle casino are old ones you might like. Good luck in the future.

@NorCal_Poker Ty sir leading out with 2 overs or high cards on in straight flush draw makes way more sense than 4-5 because if you pair up one of the overs you may not need the flush or straight vs low cards where you most likely need the flush or straight. Either way you don't fold but you might conserve and get to a river for cheaper

Wow it's scary the high level of play that guys like NorCalPoker bring to the 1/2 NL game these days! It seems that the 1/2 table will never die, even after all these decades of inflation. Twenty years ago 1/2 was crazy soft but clearly not anymore. Good luck at Stones, that room is famous for absolute soul crushers hanging out at the low stakes

i might be totally wrong but the last hand with the pocket 8s. I noticed that you peeled your hold cards way too high and that your hand is probably exposed and could be easily seen by the small blind. In fact, he 4 bet you with pocket Js??? and you said he's a Reg which makes it seems suspicious to be making such a move with Js preflop.

You are totally right about him peeling his cards very high, but I can assure you that the sb didn’t see his hand. I 4 bet because with his sizing I figured he never has me crushed with QQ+, sometimes I have him crushed 88-TT, and at worst I’m flipping. Honestly, my sizing was bad, but I was nervous cuz I had just started playing poker again and because I didn’t wanna get stacked in a vlog.
