    In some games I play some of the players will catch on and call you with any K or even lighter expecting your to cbet your whole range, or will play back at you if you do this too often. As far as the fish tax, a lot of times after fish will either leave, play tighter, or actually show up with a real hand when you don’t expect them to.

    Not s sure about 3 4 and 5 if we are talking casino raked 1-2/1-3 game which most people play. You are much better off wining a few huge pots instead of bunch of smaller ones where rake eats up 20-30% of your winnings. Regarding 3, most people playing 1-2/1-3 in casino do not have a separate poker bankroll, if they dont feel it they quit after 1st lost buy-in but sometimes rebuy many times. As long they are not playing with rent money its fine not to have a designated bankroll playing such a low stakes.

    he's just saying you're better than the average player, not that you're necessarily profitable by using these tactics on their own. the players who are truly profitable (aka true pros who live off of poker alone) are much fewer and further between. like, a tiny percentage of the total. Just saw a small study which suggested that 70% of player are in the negative, 25% of players are low earners and 5% crush over 10bb an hour. seems about right, though of course this varies based on stakes and where you choose play. you can technically be losing money and still be "better than most players".

    Hey Nathan your mostly to almost all right in what your saying. I do most to almost all of those to some to almost a lot of the time. Here is where I differ. This has been coached to me by Shaun Deeb, and other coaches, etc, at 2+2 poker forums. On your not limping behind, and raising in position to scoop limp ins. Mostly right in general. That said I don't like raising A5 to A2 suited or not there because what do players limp? A rag that usually better then the A5 to A2 rag your raising. And do the players then limp call? Yes. And if a Ace hits postflop, are you likely dominated? Yes. Are you likely to fold out hands better, and lesser hands call? No Because of that I want A6 suited, A7 suited, off, A8 off, A9, etc, K9 suited, KT, Q9 suited, QT, QJ, J9 suited, JT, , etc, in other words, on non Aces, I want at least a 9 kicker, and on Ax, want at least A6 suited +. This allows me to either scoop the limp in pot, an or hit a Ace with me ahead, or I semi bluff, and or cbet postflop, and worst case fold, etc, postflop, depending on situation. That's better then raising A3 rag, or a Q,K, with a crap 4,5,6,7 kicker. I know you can still raise scoop, semi bluff, cbet, etc, with A4 suited, and Q6 suited, etc, in position, etc, but that is way too much risk. Limping behind. You say to not do that, but some hands like ,T9 suited, JT suited, QT suited, etc, are, can be good to limp behind 2,3,4 other limpers, on a limp happy, less agressive table, for pot odds, and for MONSTER FLOP mining that is kind of like set mining. You have position. You have a 9 or better kicker. You have good pot odds. And if you hit big, a lot of players won't put you on a big hand. They will think you have bottom or middle pair, or top pair crap, bad kicker, or a draw, etc. And you can be dominating worse kickers, if you hit your Q or J. And sometimes you can still bluff postflop. Now hands like A2,A3, A4, K3, K4 suited, etc, are bad hands to limp behind, because with all the limpers, even you hit hit 2 pair or trips, or top pair, etc, you can easily be beat by a better top pair, with better kicker, better 2 pair, better trips, with a better kicker. And like I said A3, K3, Q3, etc, are not good raise scoop hands, so vs limpers it's just usually best to fold A2, K2, Q2, preflop, etc. The other good part about this is it appears to mix up your game, because sometimes you limp, sometimes to raise to scoop limps, and sometimes you fold A2 suited, etc, preflop vs limpers. This builds a better image of you, and makes you harder to figure out About your cbetting the right kind of boards, like a draw, etc with A5, etc. I usually also Cbet that board, flop about 57% to 67% to 77% of the time, in position, after a preflop raise, with a hand like A6, etc, but sometimes I check, to mix up my game, get some free cards for my draws, and to prevent players from reraising me, calling me, and playing back against me to much, etc, to give me a better image, make me harder to figure out, etc. Whether I check or Cbet depends on table, player dynamics, situation, etc, so altho sometimes I do I Cbet, check randomly, but most of the time, I have good reasons for either cbetting, checking with A5,A6,:etc, in that kind of spot. Everything else you said was Spot on, exactly right. I hope that players learn from you, and from the exceptions to what you said that I pointed out. Hope this helps. Thanks for all you do, and what your saying to do here. If it wasn't for players, coaches like you, and like the coaching I got, I and others would be losing players. For credibility, and not to brag. Turned $15 into $1750 at PS before BLACK Friday shut down of online poker. And cashed about 59,69,79,89 out of 200 $30 buy in 75 man tournaments at various brick and mortar casinos. My Cashing Ratio was about 38%, and about a 19% to 29% ROI on Sharkscope.

    Also I slightly disagree with your VPIP and PFR differential. Because of what I explained in my other comment, my VPIP is usually around,about 26%, and my PFR is about 13% to 15% to 17%, and the differential between my VPIP and my PFR is usually about 8% to 12%, instead of 3% Usually thats because I limp T9, JT, QT, etc, behind 2,3,4 limpers in front, and do more monster flop hand mining. But if a player does not, is not doing what I am doing, then your right that the differential between VPIP, and PFR should only be about 3% to 5% to 7%. Your 3% limit is way too strict. That said the tighter, smaller the differential is, the better. I would put the limit on the differential, difference, at about 13% at the highest, instead of 3% Yes aggression, raising is good, but too much of it can be bad, just like too much limping is bad.

    @@mikehickmanvloggamessingin3604 Speaking about aggression, I've read (in Nathan's website) that a good AF for a long-term winning player should be around ~3, and I'm playing NL5 cash games. Had a hard time desperately trying to reach AF of 3, but it was just unprofitable as too many fishes are not willing to pass their hands even with a small equity. My ave AF after 20k hands now is 2.13 and I think it's kinda the right number at this stake. Although, it's only my personal experience and I'm not sure if I'm not doing something wrong. What do you think about it?

    @@evir3808 first off, I had trouble seeing, reading, understanding your AF. It seemed to say 2,13. Is that 2.13, or is it 2 to 13 range? And if it is 2.13, less then a AF of 3% difference between your VPIP and PFR, then why do you say that 3% is hard to do, then say yours is less then 3, but that it works well for you? That seems like your contradicting yourself. But maybe you meant a range of 2 to 13% difference instead. Just trying to understand to answer your comment, question to me better. That said, asked. You made another good point, on why it can be hard to have a 3% difference between PFR and VPIP. If players are raising a lot from earlier positions, altho you do need to 3 bet them a little tiny bit more loosely, you also need to flat call a little tiny bit more in position, like on the Hi Jack, MP2, CO, Button, etc, on a 9 hand table. If players are raising a lot, the only way your going to have a 3% difference between PFR and VPIP, is if you almost never flat call, limp, and instead 3 bet a lot more. If you do that, that can get you into trouble more. Sometimes it's ok to flat call a standard raise in position, with a marginal hand like QJ, etc, that you don't, wouldn't want to, need to 3 bet semi light a semi lot with. Call those 3 x standard raises with QJ suited in later position, occasionally, and sometimes 3 bet with QJ suited. Mix up your game there. It's ok, IF your a good player that can play good postflop. Playing that way can be profitable, and just as profitable as 3 betting to keep the difference between PFR, VPIP down. 3% difference between PFR, VPIP is too strict, and a difference of 4% to 13% is just fine. And if it's working for you, over the long term, over a long enough sample size, then that's better, best for you, what matters, etc, instead of trying to force yourself to a 3% difference by 3 betting a lot and losing more because of that. It really depends on the situation. What Nathan, I and others are saying is in general, and there are exceptions.

    @@mikehickmanvloggamessingin3604 Actually I was talking about aggression factor (AF), which is another indicator for postflop. Total AF is a number of bets and 3bets+ divided by the number of calls postflop. Number 3 means you are betting or 3beting 3 times more than calling. So I was asking about this. Speaking about VPIP and PFR ratio I totally get you and I would agree on the bigger part. Although I don't see 3% as too strict. My VPIP is ~16% with PFR being ~11%, so the difference is 5%. As you're playing more hands, it makes sense your difference is bigger. But sometimes I feel my 5% is not enough and I can be more aggressive, just that it's a matter of practice as I need to feel in what situation I miss.

    Mike, ive been playing for almost 2 years, ive developed a theory of sorts, " the KEY to poker is aggression, the SECRET to poker is folding ". Sounds like they contradict each other but its another way of saying, play good starting cards, or even, if you're not folding 80% of your hands then you're probably losing.

    Does Montana still have the max $300 pot size rule? In my opinion, position is still the primary thing for limit poker. Realize that every draw usually has odds to call, if it is to the nuts. The weaker players will hope to catch a straight to the lower end...don't be them. If you have a strong hand (top 2 or better) do not play slow unless it is top full house, quads or a straight flush....most likely if anyone has a draw they will call...you need to charge them for it and accept when they draw out on you with a gutshot.

Then quit as i can come back tomorrow saying keep making positive ev when in reality, odds or not it is entirely possible that i will always lose. But i keep putting the hours in away from the table learning the game and ive got to question why. I know you say if you get tilted then you've already lost poker but fuck you, im down around 80 buy ins, I'm allowed to be tilted. So tempting to take my winnings and give up.

    unless of course they have a hand to call with, at which point you're not gonna be so good.. you're literally proving the point that aggressiveness works, but if they're good they'll catch on to you, too, and call you down and be printing money off of you. that's kind of how this all works. they're risking far less in this process, too, given they're in position on you and can make the better decisions since they have that info.

I had them dominated. I lost. I continue to be the ONE who constantly loses to the fish who have 13% equity. It's the better players I win against. My stat sheet screams "DON'T PLAY ON THE WEEKEND!" As you continue to preach, "look at the numbers", my numbers say "the fish will destroy you". I have determined the word "variance" is just another way of saying "I'm gonna get my nuts slammed"

    I make money from people who do 4. I know they're at least slightly overplaying most of their hands and I just let them glide through their BS aggression and deposit their money, little by little, or faster, into the bank of me. How is it that everyone is preaching aggression and so few people are realizing that a substantial portion of the aggression is from weaker hands trying to look and sound tough? Aggression is meaningful when it's appropriate. Stick more than a few percent where it isn't and you have a weak player risking money for no good reason. I'm supposed to be afraid of your aggression when you play just like these cookie-cutter courses tell people to play?
