Low stakes: - Play tight vs all newcomers - Bluff all nits on super connected boards - Usually top pair is very valuable in low stakes because people bluff a lot, but be mindful of the good players who know how to sniff out top pair and put you in bad spots - If someone covers you by 5x and goes all in, they are trying to scare you out of the pot most the time and have like middle pair This is something ive been going by but let me know if im a fish lol

1 and 2 are pretty good, 3 I don't know. The main problem with 2 is when the nit has the nuts. So don't bluff your stack off because you think a nit is going to fold the nuts.
@ColeCur6 күн бұрын
I feel like 3 is the opposite, for me people tend to play tight at low stakes and bluff less. Depending on my hand and the bet I usually dont try and hero calling

hello folks, i'd like to share a tip as well for low stakes. if you get check raised or jammed on at the river in low stakes.. about 80% of the time they have a strong hand. keep this in mind and keep mental notes to when this happens. you'll notice it if you pay attention. even if you're not in the hand, showdown.
@sawmill0357 ай бұрын
Excellent video! All of this is very true. I will say that I think some of these facts are different regionally depending on where you play. Texas is notorious for looser players that hate folding any pair at all (at low stakes anyway). I played a bunch in Mississippi, and I was able to get a lot more bluffs through there than I am here in Texas. Also, I don't quite agree with the often showing bluffs in big pots thing. I often find that it's quite the opposite. Next, I don't think it was mentioned in the video, but if you fold to someone who is a bit chatty and friendly, if you really want to know what they have, just ask and tell them what you had. They will tell you 80% of the time what they had at low stakes. Yes, sometimes they may lie, but in my experience it's rare. As long as you play a good strong GTO range, you shouldn't be too concerned about giving away too much information about your own play because you are, theoretically, relatively balanced. Lastly, and I cannot emphasize this enough, you _must must must_ learn how to make folds that in any other context would be very nitty. For example, if you are playing $1/2 against a straightforward player (i.e. they bet when they have it, fold/check when they don't) who has been raising to $12-15 normally, but suddenly decides to open to $25 or even $30 out of the blue, guess what? They have aces, kings, or less likely, queens. That's their range. Depending on their stack size, if I have a smaller pocket pair, I love a call because if I hit a set, there is a nearly 100% chance I will get their entire stack since small stakes players overplay overpairs (this is what Wolfgang was talking about with implied odds), but if I miss my set, JUST FOLD. Even if you have TT and the flop comes 249. If they lead out for a big price again, I guarantee you you are beat. Don't burn your money, and just fold.

I don't understand people who make their RFI bigger when they have better hands.
@mitsevox7 ай бұрын
telling people to fold to one bet with an overpair is too exploitative. you should only do that against the most straightforward, terrible players of all time. i've played all over the country in 1/2 and bad players will overplay AK and AQ all the time trying to act like they have aces... they will also give up after you call flop
@sawmill0357 ай бұрын
@@mitsevox Yes, this is why I specifically said against "straightforward players." That said, not sure where you're playing, but 99 times out of 100, when someone has been limp/calling, or raising small all night, then suddenly goes wild and open raises 10-12x, they have QQ+, and extremely rarely AKs. That is the definition of a straightforward player. And guess what, if you get bluffed off your tens 1 out of 100 times by AQ or AK or whatever, you still made the right play that will pay off in the long run. Who cares if you lose one time? Don't be results-oriented.

At the 15-minute mark where villain didn't show his hand: He could have 22 or 77 -- those hands might raise pre-flop and would definitely go all-in on the turn. Less likely: He had K2 of diamonds or hearts. Another possible hand: KJ, and he wants to charge flush draws. All of your other guesses make perfect sense, too (like AA).

20:05 checking is horrible in a 4 way hand, as a smaller set is also going to check through with the same logic. You can easily bet small, $90, to make it enticing for people with ANY piece to call and those with AT or AQ to call. Sure they may all fold (to $90 would be odd tho), but a 8 on the turn for example makes 9T the winner and you're never getting away. Another GOOD reason to bet flop is to build the pot.
@jeffshackleford31527 ай бұрын
I agree, make a very small bet into the field. You are putting 1 in to win 4 ( possibly less), and it makes the pot big very quickly. Depending on the table, you can probably induce a raise from other players in the pot as well. On that turn specifically, you will likely have to rip it in, because your hand is the nuts but super fragile. The turn being mostly a blank other than the spade draw coming in.

At this level in live poker, 3! Are generally much stronger. So 3!/fold range is pretty small. 2. Even if his 3! Range is balanced out with suited connectors and suited A5 types, this guy is in the SB and would be much tighter and have fewer bluffs. Keep up the videos dude! Cheers!

Never check a set or flopped straight vs 3 or more players. You will get at least 1 call 90% of the time. You should have bet $85 after flopping set of JJs. Other pocket pairs, straight draws like 98s , and possibly 2 over cards will likely call an $85 bet on flop. You lost value there with top set.
@mitsevox7 ай бұрын
he targeted those same hands on the turn, no one had anything. if his hand is only worth one street of value against the hands you just mentioned, he might as do it on turn instead of flop. you're using bad results oriented logic and you're incredibly unbalanced if you only bet flop there with two pair or better
@michaelholland77387 ай бұрын
@@mitsevox draws are more likely to call flop bets as well as pairs. If you miss turn, there's a chance you get to see river for free since most c-betters check turn with weak/moderate hands. So your best chance to get a call is on flop particularly against a good player that cbets their entire range. Not only that, but an $85 bet on flop is GREAT pot odds. $285 on turn, which is over half pot, not great odds especially when turn is a 2. My logic is absolutely sound to any decent experienced player. You should worry less about "balance" in a 4 way pot against ppl you will probably never play against again, and make value bets instead of wasting opportunities.
