The Incredible Brain of a Poker Player

[@1to1IELTS]

This sadly misses the majority of reasons that modern day pros are better than the typical amateur, which is simply they have studied extensively and understand gto and understand what spots are over and underbluffed. "The magic" part of poker is so minimal as any online player knows.

[@gesus.christ99]

This is just a BS video of non poker player talking about poker

[@caioelvas7767]

im a professional poker player and you are 100% correct

[@AllCityFlava83]

They just reviewing concept . I play on a certain level and this only applies to in person play I would say.

[@Nile15rush_fj]

The typical amateur would go on tilt after losing a few big pots or getting coolered. The pro also gets coolered and loses pots but has an unbreakable mindset to know deep down that their strategy is still profitable despite getting destroyed on the tables. That is what I'm aspiring to do, but it's so difficult. It's an everyday process. Poker humbles everybody. Maybe that's why a lot of high stakes pros are really good guys that willingly share their knowledge with others

6:55 it doesn't matter if Alex shows emotion on the river after someone raises because his only action is really to call or fold so giving away emotional clues doesn't give the opponent any actionable information. Also this is a pretty standard fold, no read needed.

Wahouuu c’était génial!!! Merci 👍 Davidi magnifique mm ds la défaite 😘

[@PsyferInc]

Not all poker pros are created equal. In saying this, I mean... Many "live" players have learned to control their movements (hand, eye, breathing, and other visible "tells") to keep from giving away critical information other players are looking for. When an online player makes his/her way into the "live" sessions, they often have to learn that poker is more than just making decisions based on game play. In some situations the player is just playing the player and not the cards. This is more true in "live" situations vs. online. Another factor is emotional control. Even some of the pros go thru emotions that can spiral out of control. This is usually when a player reaches "tilt" and usually ditches their "normal" playing patterns. Even a pro can reach a point where they are just not at peak performance and it's time to leave the tables. The better the pro the least likely this happens but it still does happen. Even the best!

Slight correction referring to the definition of "Bad Beat", A stronger hand beaten by a weaker hand. Always hurts more on the river!

[@jonygarlic8495]

Haha nice

[@valeriomangione3296]

you should call phil ivey and daniel negreanu

[@naMnivraM]

Yes. Polar opposites to approach as well. Daniel doesn't shut up fishing for information, and Phil is quiet, stoic, and intimidating. That would be a good watch. A real high stakes game as well. That would be the best indication of physical stressors.

[@regzonline]

If you like and understand poker, you probably won’t like this video. Very poor explanations of the hands actually played, making it unclear of the real science this video is trying to portray

[@ewallt]

The easy way to know whether to bluff or not is based on the opponent’s actions. What’s their bet size? Did they check the previous round? Most amateurs give away the strength of their hands by their actions, so they open themselves to be attacked by demonstrating they have medium strength hands.

[@thomaslemonnier4649]

Bonne vidéo, on ne sait pas si les joueurs avaient misé de l'argent pour rendre l'experience plus reel,tournoi ou cash game ?En tout cas, bravo !

[@Pierre909]

Je pense que non sinon ils l'auraient mentionné au début. C'est bien dommage car c'est le propre du jeu et c'est je pense ce qui biaise le plus les émotions humaines. Les tendances observées par les scientifiques seraient décuplées chez les amateurs et constances pour les pro.

Davidi is a crusher. Seen him around in some older clips.

[@GreenFalcon85]

When we talk about stress in Poker I think about the final 3 Tables spots in big tournaments. My heart beat then constantly very fast even when Iam not in a Hand. Often it’s than already 6-7 hrs ( online) of Play so it’s not only money on the line also a lot of Time

[@technofeeling2462]

23:53 maybe you should mention thats it is not necessarily a mistake to call here for baumann. It can me too good of a hand to fold mathematically

[@romulus3345]

This is BS there is no stress at all when you're not playing for a prize.

[@dank2476]

Not true, the professionals played for reputation and lost.

[@Dany9394-r1m]

There's always a certain amount of stress playing poker as in any agonistic activity

[@vinnartaigh2076]

You're not getting it.

[@eyeq7730]

Exactly. Poker is not a card game, it is a Betting game that sometimes uses cards to decide the winner of the pot. If there's nothing on the line, then there is no game!

[@yasservalenzuela9738]

Are they not playing a cash game?

[@HighStakesPokerReplays]

I have noticed this to be true with some players... The very good tournament players are not that good at cash games and the very good cash players are not that good at tournaments.

[@PhilBot4OOO]

A lot of the points made seem to miss the mark considerably in relation to real life poker. Players don't need to use their brain power 'remember the cards that were dealt', they are on the table for you to see!! The whole preflop, flop, turn, and river structure to the betting was missed entirely in the first hand. Additionally, although it may look like some players are giving off physical tells, a seasoned live player will be super tuned to in to if the other player is looking at them, taking a specific moment to swallow or blink unnoticed for instance. They may also be crafty enough to falsely breath heavy by over inflating their chest etc or look uncomfortable. Just about any pro these days is crunching numbers and ranges from a set memory bank of strategic options. They are then using bet sizing of their own and their opponents to narrow those ranges down into suitable collection of 'bluffs' and 'value' hands with an attempt at always being 'balanced', making it impossible to exploit your strategy. The only time they will deviate from the GTO(game theory optimal) approach is if they feel there is a significantly exposed weakness that can offer greater value in their opponents game. An example would be a very tight player folding too often, you can start to include more bluffs to take advantage of this passive tight play. In summary, there is nowhere near enough emphasis on the actual game here, things like position, ranges, bet sizing, stack sizes etc.

Poker is not a "sport" as was suggested in this film. It is a very serious pass time and game hobby, and is gambling. Sport! What? not unless you are running the 100 metres sprint while playing poker, I think not.

Online poker is utterly pointless because there is way too much luck involved. A much better way to wager money would be playing a video game competitively. Even though you have to deal with cheaters at least there is actually skill involved.
