[@PokerCoaching]

Do YOU play better as a short stack or a deep stack?

[@jefferynewsome6766]

[@spacecadetsMia]

In tournaments short stack just get a premium, James, and 🙏

[@qazzaqstan]

Objectively probably short stacked (or semi short), relative my play group deep stacked.

[@samloomis7364]

Been listening to your podcasts on Podbean via my iPhone. Love all the info and the manner of which you share it. I really like it when you answer a question and not 15 seconds later someone asks you the same question. Looking forward to becoming a premium Poker Coaching student soon. I figured that I can't afford not to. Keep up the great work Jonathan. 1, Find a game you can crush 2. Play it a ton 3. Manage your bankroll

[@kevinr8020]

No joke, this speaks volumes. I found a limit, the best time of day for casual players, high hand promotions, and be disciplined. I'm finally learning from my mistakes and making lifestyle changes, mainly with food, to fund my poker sessions. Don't ever eat at the casino. Instead, take money from the guy spending 12 dollars on chicken tenders.

[@JHAldy10]

Step 1: Get dealt AA Step 2: Player in front of you jams with 88 Step 3: Call

[@supremeleaderarmy9164]

Step 4: flop goes T85

[@idk-um5uk]

The jerry yang hand lol

[@AcesH1gh]

I love cracking aces that way . Just as amusing when the reverse happens when I have aces. Cest la poker

[@allanabitbol9785]

Your ability to be precise and convey your message simply only enriches our knowledge of poker. Thanks.

[@PokerCoaching]

I appreciate that!

[@karthickiyer8995]

Jonathan, it would be amazing if you could help with these ranges for tournaments as well. Thanks!

[@mr.doriangrey3394]

Can u zoom in on the ranges sometimes it’s hard to see them

[@independantcrypto4323]

He does that on purpose so you go download them on his site. It's kind of genius

[@caedanjinks3121]

I just zoom in a and screemshot

[@carterbutler2535]

Zoom out on the ranges, I see them too clearly

[@kevinlindstrom8486]

THIS!!!

[@kevinlindstrom8486]

​@@independantcrypto4323 No, it is annoying. His courses have their own value.

[@brenttgabel768]

One of the more streamlined and easier explained content that I've seen from your videos

[@PokerCoaching]

I'm glad you think so, hope it was useful to you!

[@whosRickyy]

You’ve been a great help, thanks

[@GarrattCampton]

thanks for the awesome video, looks like you have psorisis... if true i have the same thing and I found that unlike what doctors tell you it's quite the opposite. It's an oil problem, so while we can't cure it you can keep it at bay. you can control it so it's undetectable. Even if you're not showering daily, you can still control it easily. Remove all oils from head, face / scalp using a anti-dandruff shampoo or any good cheap shampoo will do, but the trick is to shampoo TWICE or THREE times to get rid of all the oils on the skin. condition hair because it will feel like straw after shampooing twice/thrice. Then the SECOND you get out of the shower and dry yourself off use an oily moisturiser. It's got to be an oily one, not a dermatologist approved one. (such as Cera Ve) a cheap oily moisturiser tricks the skin into stopping the production of faulty oils. I use "Nivia Soft" works well. There's a few others that are quite oily, but ive been using that for the last 5 years so can't think of any off the top of my head. it usually takes about 1-2weeks after a bad breakout. But i can get rid of it and keep it at bay using that method every day or second day if I'm seditory.

[@theonlyketan]

Hey Jonathan, can you do a video where you create an implementable strategy for your range. I saw a video where you had hands coded as premium calling, draws (calling), marginal hands and junk.

[@fajnemiejsca]

When we play with friends once in while non od this works:):)

[@mikecooper8988]

Thank you, Jonathan. I needed this.

[@PokerCoaching]

You're welcome Mike!

[@AlphaPex007]

Great video. Could anyone explain to me why QJo in early position is folding most of the time and J9s is played most of the time or even 3bet

[@somebodyuknow2507]

Suited matters a lot if you’re going to play out of position. Playing marginal made hands OOP (like what QJo tends to make) is much less profitable than playing draws out of position (like what J9s tends to make).

[@cheflev9884]

In the past I had immediate success with everything I learned from this Chanel. But the past several weeks I have hit a lull. I think it’s more than just poker variance. I think it’s because all of my playing time has consisted of playing online poker with fake money. I live in NYC so online gambling is still illegal. Having said that, I think the principles you are laying out mainly apply to players with stakes. However small it still matters. I experience players doing all sorts of things that are completely dumbfounding, and only compound because there is no real money on the line. I know the answer from the chat will be “well no shit” and I agree. But it’s frustrating to not be able to practice what you teach in the real setting. For context I have a newborn, a full time job, and I’m saving money for a bankroll so when I do have a chance to play live cash games and tournaments I will.

[@TheTedMeister]

Jonathan is so knowledgeable but man his voice is so robotic and sharp. It's hard to listen to him yet his knowledge of the game is so helpful.

[@qsdailydose8970]

Jonathan if I’m getting a lot of limpers before me should I open with the same range as if no limpers or be tighter?

[@anmolllll]

Depends on if they are likely to call a lot which you can figure out. If calling is high frequency, be a bit tighter if they are folding a lot keep the range as is imo

[@kyunghooncho7845]

1. For UTG8 RFI range, why do we raise with K10o some of the times when we completely fold KJo? I mean isn’t KJo better than K10o? 2. I thought UTG8 RFI range was tight, but why do we raise with K8s..? I mean we are folding even KJo or 98s or 87s which seems to be better than K8s IMO. Isn’t K8s only good when we flop a flush draw which is only 10% of the time? Please teach me, I cannot sleep lol

[@relaxationmeditationsleep2934]

When raising KJo your opponent will fold all worse Ks and call all better Ks. KJ is NOT a value raise in this spot but a bluff! If you raise K8 it's obv a bluff too but your opponent will still fold better Ks like KJ-K9. That's why it's a better bluff!

[@loudorchen9897]

Hello Jonathan I've been a fan for years, you have some great videos, I play plo mostly for years so my nlhe game is pretty weak, recently PokerStars has banned Ontario Canada from the world site so we have our own segregated player pool, the pool of players is quite fishy so on the surface that sounds great but it can also be confusing to play against with players playing pretty straight forward its almost hard to three bet many times because it feels like they are not messing around pre flop much lile you would find with a more skilled group on the regular stars site, any tips for thsi type of player pool where 90% are very bad and 10% are decent regs?

[@BrettGoosen]

Record notes on the players you come up against. There's no general strategy you can implement. You need to be able to differentiate the fish from the sharks, and what better data to use than previous games?

[@willinnewhaven3285]

All those short-stacked concepts also come into play when everyone acting after you is playing short-stacked,, even if you are not.

[@manfredullrich483]

How many BB shall you raise when you in the SB and 5 players in front just flat, and you know several will call even with junk, at least when you only raise by 3-5 BBs?

[@riccardoscalisi8942]

5 flats before me I will fold unless my hand is near to unbeatable

[@meltyboyz]

Can someone explained what 8 handed means? Like UTG8

[@ashlerh4103]

8 players at the table

[@gazorpazorp9798]

Wow only 8 minutes in and learned a lot! Apparently for rfi from the button I was way too tight vs. most of low stakes opponents. TBH it felt a little nitty and i thought i was getting wide rgi from the button with 45 suited lol. Thanks Johnathan.

[@joshuazavala1750]

Anyone else come here after they punt off their stack for a few hours

[@Tampa_tom]

I disagree. Position doesn’t mean as much when you at a cash table with run of the mill players. You should only play your cards. In a tournament position means alot

[@maxreach]

why only 3 mechanics? why are you hiding the rest of mechanics? is it fair?
