This is unbelievably valuable to people like me who play in things like the WTPT. My uncle and I are small stakes players who a few times a year play bigger events if the bankrolls allow but play a weekly game in that league. When we first started playing he would get so upset that people were calling him regardless of what they had, I'm talking getting sucked out off of 3-5 suited... But we adjusted our play styles and even though you still play the better hand perfectly and the cards have different plans we rarely get angry about it and chalk it up to learning how to play these types of players. Great vid man keep them coming!

I've had this problem when playing a short cash came with everyone on around 50BB, I tried raising bigger but I still got called a lot and more often than not I didn't really flop anything and because we were so short I wasn't really able to bluff at it either, especially multi-way (so I ended up just losing a lot of reasonably big pots). And whenever I tried limping I never knew whether I was ahead or not (unless I had the nuts), which made it super hard to play.

I'm sure we've all heard the acronym FOMO. Fear of missing out is also a huge thing in poker, and unless you make your raise scarier than the villains' fear of missing out, then they are going to call. So when you have 3.4 or 5 or more limpers in front of you, making a standard 2.5x or 3x raise is not going to get them to fold. You'll end up playing a bloated family pot, fortunately in position, we hope, and have to be quite skilled to negotiate it.

@user-kb2no8yg1o2 ай бұрын
If you will raise every poreflop against limpers, you MAY BE will see them soon to stop limp. But you will observe it from outside of the table. Because they will still call you and they will still be getting matches which make you out very quickly. If there's 6 limpers at the table, one or two will anyway get better or equal combinations than you. And you will lose pretty fast. In fact, you should fold bad hands and only raise when you have good position AND good hand.

Raise the limpers. Raise them big. I've also found at the micros, it's ok to just give up some of these chips post flop, when you totally miss the board. Many micro opponents are playing for a different reason. They enjoy playing lots of hands and winning lots of pots and they rarely pay attention to the size of the pot. I let some of these guys pick up my 6 or 7X raise with their ridiculous donk bet on the flop, and they feel good, but they are ultimately setting themselves up to lose a huge pot. Also, when the regular players behind you call the bigger pre-flop raise they have something playable, and when they 3-bet the bigger raise they have a very, very playable hand. Raise the limpers. Raise them big.
@fundiver1985 жыл бұрын
And tighten your range, if there are multible limpers, as you often see in the early stages on micro stake online tournaments. Its ok to isolate a single limper with J9o from the BTN, but if 4 guys have already limped into the pot, then just let them bust each other, and wait for a better hand.

Thanks for this informative video. I agree, though I find myself more often in an aggressive game were people like to raise. then bunch of callers. Had an annoying guy in plo game.(This probably goes for holdem too) weird 5way dynamic where it went Limp to me. and when I limp behind . Guy to left potted it. not always but very often. So I started to fold hands I did not want to Limp/call. now he stopped potting.. When I opened myseøf it usually went just Call or fold. he did not 3bet and almost never fold.. Tried implement Limp/3bet but never got into that scenario as he just did not raise when I was good. probably saw a live tell on me Alot of weird hands showed up at river. and even though this was plo. It's really annoying to have these guys on the left.. Love fish to left and Aggro to my right. Maybe do a video about how to deal with aggressive players on the left? Struggling.. :(

another thing I might do although it is risky is I'll raise exactly what I think every limper will call with aces like say 60 chips at the beginning of a game with a 1500 stack then on the flop I'll go all in, this can be vary dangerous so it is hard to suggest but I had tables where there was 5 limpers at the early stages of the game and obviously all of them will call 60 if they already called 20 so the pot will be 360 including your bet assuming nobody folds and if you expect someone to make a fish bet on the flop like 30 or 60 into a 300 pot I'd let them bet first or even before the flop if you think you could raise 65 or 70 chips and they all will call then do that instead. If you get called you could be beat but you would be surprised how often you'll get a "top pair call" with a duce kicker or even a middle pair but about 1/4 of the time someone will call you that actually has you beat, most of the time everyone will fold and a lot of times you'll get a bad call and knock someone out of the game and take the pot and their chips and you might even get a hitchhiker going for a flush which would be bad because they have pot odds to actually make the call because it would be over 3 to 1 on their money and they do have about a 33% chance at winning making the call justified but ask yourself this "if you win that hand and someone makes a bad call could you win the whole sit and go" or if they all fold could you win the sit and go otherwise? You could stagger your bet with aces or kings and pray someone calls you but if you have been playing tight you are risking everyone folding the hand with a big bet.

This kind of strategy (big raises PF) at super fishy tables causes an endless chip bleeding (expecially when multi-tabling). You have to fold a lot of multiway pots. After 30-40 hands you are already one buyin and half behind without playing a f.kin hand. So I prefer changing tables to find a mixed pool of regs and fishes.At least regs respect your openings and fold often allowing you to isolate fish.

@@splitsuit Is your camera/lens set up something where you can control the aperture? (I'm a photographer, not a videographer, but I know a lot of folks shoot their video with DSLRs or Mirrorless). If you set the depth of field deeper (e.g., f/6 v f/2.8) it will give you room to move without losing focus. You'll lose that creamy bokeh you've got going on, but it will keep you in focus the whole time (and you can obviously dial it in - there will be a 'sweet spot' aperture setting where you're you're maximizing bokeh/DoF while still keeping yourself in focus). You can also move back a bit - what's the focal length of the lens you're using? I like the initial lighting, btw - going with a stronger key light gives good separation from the BG and keeps you from looking washed out. I don't know what your set up is, but one thing I use for corporate headshots is just a bigass softbox (I have a 4' diameter octobox) a bit off to the side. The angle gives some softer shadowing, but the size keeps the light from being too harsh (specifically, keeps it from being too specular). Keeping the light head on, consider your angle as well. There's a method of lighting called "Butterfly" lighting (because of the shadow cast under the nose - can't see it on you, ya big hairy man), but it's often used for modeling and 'glamour' shooting because it's so flattering. It's a photography maxim, but it's obviously just as true for video: "We don't photograph things, we photograph light." I'd rather have a mediocre camera and great light than the best camera in the world and bad light (kinda like suits - a $100 suit perfectly tailored will look infinitely better than a $2000 suit that doesn't fit). Love the videos, thanks for all the insights. It's been great watching my losses shift to primarily bad beats and coolers instead of my own leaks - I mean, I'm hoping to start winning soon, but baby steps, right? ;)

@RLplusabunchofdumbnumbers5 жыл бұрын
@@splitsuit Oh yeah, if you've got it anywhere near the widest apertures, then dialing that back a bit will likely fix you right up. The Lumix camera are Micro-4/3, so the crop factor should be 2x, meaning that f/1.7 is the equivalent DoF of a f/3.4 - pretty wide open. Setting it to something like f/3 -f/4 on the camera/lens (making it the equivalent of f/6-f/8 on a full frame) should give you more room to move while still keeping you well in focus. I don't have first hand experience with micro-4/3 though, so I may be a bit off, but that math should be close. And you're using a ring light? From the reflection in your eyes, looks like you have it above you instead of shooting through the ring? If it's big enough diameter, you can try the latter - it's another flattering light set up (though it may be a bit too 'make-up tutorial' for your tastes...though, on the other hand, there is a reason why it's a popular lighting for make-up, it tends to look good). Good luck with your new gear/new format.

It's tough to raise 10BB when everybody is limping in every hand. If you do that the other players will leave and you won't have a game. The good news is you know you are playing against weaker players. They don't have any idea how you are playing. They don't know if you are folding a lot or playing every hand. Play stronger hands in postion more often. No need for a bluffing range (or trying to use ranges at all). Play like that is what is going on and you will win, you should be able to outplay them post-flop. Enjoy the game as it is, or move along to a better game.

Why would you want fish to fold? Play a value heavy range. Poker isn’t rocket science. It’s some kinda science/art.

I disagree. I think opening using a min-raise is better since they'll often call down with any pair or draw and the rake in the micros is brutal. Of course if we are playing super tight than I get this.

All that does is bloat the pot while offering zero fold equity and it fails to create better postflop spots.

I think, in terms of video quality, you're doing ok, but your lighting, imo. is just too "flat". The contours of your face are getting lost and the image lacks "warmth", due to, I'm guessing, using a led ring light on your camera? -that's good for lighting stuff, but not people, imnsho. But what do I know? -it's been the late 80's/early 90's since I did any podium stuff.

I actually disagree with this. I play this kind of game all the time with a brutal rake and short stacks, and I smash it. And this is my advice. You want them in there with those dominated hands and junky draws and pair-plus draws. When you raise huge, you risk getting jammed on by someone who wakes up with AK QQ+, which is going to be about a fifth of the time. Of course, as your position improves, this risk decreases. But if you get frustrated and raise to $20 with KTs over 6 limpers, you can get jammed on, and you also open yourself up to the dreaded limp-reraise, which is either a small pair or the nuts. Since you won't see it more than twice per session, have fun guessing! Anyway, don't fork your range. This is my main point: if nine people want to call 8 more dollars with their entire limping range, LET THEM. Play a huge, massively multiway pot with a gigantic range advantage. The multiway nature and tiny spr of these pots, and the predictable behavior of the donks (slowplaying monsters, jamming draws on the flop) makes them straightforward to play. You should raise all of your pairs, and all of your good suited broadway contaning an ace or king. Your UTG raising range, plus all of your small pairs. Because they won't 3-bet enough, punish them by set-mining. Sure it's high variance. But you'll win a $250 pot with a $30 stack. So.... be patient.
