Lol, you cannot raise if there is not a bet!!!! so many people need to learn this,I hear it all the time. That is so funny that you said that.

i was having the typical nit problem of running into aggression whenever i missed flops after i RFI / 3bet / 4bet, and somehow everyone check/folds whenever i hit it, and your breakdowns have helped so much, i am really finding table image means so much, and staying a step ahead of whatever story my actions are telling, and just bluffing more honestly, forces ppl to over fold or give me action when i have it
@DoctorHomunculous8 ай бұрын
your advice to "let them bet" when faced with overly aggressive ppl is killer too, i used to try to out-bully them when i had it but then they just get away, now i tank-call first two streets acting like i'm on a draw and they just throw money at me lmao

If you find yourself at a table where your image has become a nit it can result in a huge upswing if you play it right. 1. It opens your range because people will believe your bets more often 2. By playing weak in the hands you’re strong you’ll get paid off because an agro player will believe they can over bet you off pots 3. If you want to get really fun you can do the following: say you were proven to be a NIT by having to show your cards in a bad showdown or a bad face up fold and now everyone knows that if you’re betting you probably have the nuts. Sneak a bluff through at some point after this and show the bluff. Now your bets are polarized and your range is way harder to read (assuming you played the nuts the same way you played the bluff). This is the spot I’ve seen the best results after the NIT label.

Made this mistake earlier in a tournament. Had suited QJh in middle position, raised it up and got reraised by the small blind. I flatted and flop came Q64 with two hearts. I barreled into the guy, missed the flush draw but had top pair on the river. I went for a small 1/4 pot bet and guy jammed river and I snap called only to run into pocket 6s for a flopped set. When he calls a triple barrel down and there is no flush or straight on the board, something should be ringing alarm bells.
@TheDestroyer12508 ай бұрын
There was a video I seen recently from I believe GTOgiraffe talking about there was a correct GTO spot where QJsuited 3,4 bet bluffs and jams alot of the time. I was playing a turbo tournament so not sure if I made the right choice by flatting. Small blind reraising is usually pretty strong, well beyond pocket 6s strong. Anyone think 3 betting would have been the better option there?

I saw a hand where early position opened, middle position player 1 3-bets, then middle position player 2 4-bets, and Jungleman in late position insta-mucks his pocket jacks. At the time I thought it seemed marginally nitty but looking at these charts I understand exactly why he did it. Also, it was the correct fold not just in theory but in practice too - he was up against KK, AA, and AK.

it's precisely because the price is so good on the AK spades hand that he may also be bluffing. because a thinking player would reason " who would fold only 20K more?" depends on what your opponent is capable of

@DavidTURNER-we4ekАй бұрын
This shows with a marginal made hand and even with top pair, you should check sometimes. Balancíng this with bluffing seems to be tricky. When do u bluff with AK or JJ? Perhaps with blockers? Real surprising that Queens fold to a 4 bet in that situation.
@nickchoporis59014 ай бұрын
On As,Ks hand, 10,000 seems way to big of a turn bet. Pot bet gives only 2-1 odds. 4-1 odds on either Heart flush or straight. Why make them act correctly, i. e. fold ? Why not give them 2.5-1 to 3-1 odds to call a 4-1 shot ?

So i think it always just depends on ur opponent its ridiculous to teach someone to play a certain way. Because if ur opponent likes to check raise bluff u should play differently vs if this person never check raise to bluff. U missing on a lot of money if u arent the aggressor betting because then u are guessing what to do

27:11 Can someone please help me understand this? Jonathan says: "If opponent goes all-in we fold every time". And I encouter this a lot in GTO suggestions (to fold when opponent goes all in). *Does this not make GTO exploitable though?* Because if opponent knows you will fold most most of the time there, he can just go all-in and build a massive chip lead even though he doesn't have anything. I know there are spots where we call all-ins, but they seem rare in gto. Especially in tournaments, you invest so much in a hand playing GTO, opponent goes all-in, you fold and now you're playing from behind with half a stack. A hand like this can literally be game losing. New player here, feedback appreciated.

You fold your marginal made hands. You don't fold with your premium hands (which you would have played in the same manner).
@loganadolf73638 ай бұрын
From my basic understanding, making a value bet with a not so great hand here makes an easy decision to fold vs a BB check raise. While making the same bet with your best hands would make for an easy decision to call vs a BB check raise Seems like you're trying to get the value from your hand here, while also protecting yourself from ending up in this same spot with a better hand than QQ but not a premium hand

You will lose a lot no matter how well you play. You can't avoid it. By playing well you will lose less often lose for shorter periods (possibly) and be harder to play against.

Lol if u bet the flop with 7 he could raise or could fold… again it just depends on ur playstyle… if u raise i see him call looking for flush check on turn and then u can check check on turn. Its because ucheck the flop he feels like he can bluff and bet the turn. I would always rather be the aggressor bet fold and win more hands from betting.

One of the problems we have is the number of YT poker instructors who profess aggression so much. Gil Jack does a great job of playing bluff lines, but trust me, if you try to play like he does, you will go broke fast. He's good at finding that line. You and I are not. Blackrain79 is another guy who advocates hyper aggression. So there is currently an epidemic of aggression out there.
