Playing Poker OUT OF POSITION: The Ultimate Guide (2024)

Have you ever wondered how to play out of position pots in live poker? Marc Goone breaks down a complete strategy guide which takes advantage of the biggest mistakes live poker players make. In short, we recommend checking our entire range as the pre flop raiser when out of position because live players:
1) Stab too much for protection
2) Telegraph their hand strength with sizing
3) Fail to "protect" their check back range
Marc breaks down the "why" behind the strategy in depth in this poker strategy video.

    When the flop goes ck ck and you ck turn and villain stabs; you covered everything but possibly one. What if you're holding AKo and villian stabs; assuming just a normal live stabby bet size. What are you doing with AKo on that board? Last question; do you also recommend 6 to 10x c/r sizing on turn? Thanks

    Making the most amount of money playing poker nis about putting your opponents in the situations where they make the biggest mistakes! What mistakes do live players make in position vs a check? 1) They stab too much for protection 2) They telegraph their hand strength with sizing (specifically on dynamic boards) 3) They fail to "protect" their check back range Who's excited to experiment with this strategy?

    In one example you explained when deeper you could shove for little more than pot and you had QT as the hand. Do you advocate going for it on river with front door flush? And/or combo draw? I’ve seen a lot of stuff where front door draws are give ups on riv bc of blocking their folding range, so just curious. Really like your videos!

    a combo draw is going to be a LESS profitable bluff than some other combos, but if they are overfolding it’s still going to significantly outperform giving up. i think people get way too caught up in combos and lose the forest for the trees. how do we funnel them to over call when we have value and over fold when we have bluffs?

    Thanks for this video. Just a note you mentioned most live players stab the flop too often with their SDV (like TT on the Js9s2c board) yet when the flop goes XX and we X the turn you mention they are also stabbing with the same SDV they would in theory have bet on the flop so how do they have this group of hands in both nodes? Thanks

    good question! they overstab relative to equilibrium on flip with sdv, but they still get to the turn with a bunch of sdv on turn cuz they’re not ALWAYS stabbing it. it’s still a big % of their x back range.

    i always try my best to make what i think is the most profitable decision long term, regardless of if its the very first hand of the night, or i'm racking up to leave. now to be clear - it's sometimes really really hard to do this! you want to settle in at the beginning. and you don't want to play for stacks at the end if you're up a bunch... but i try my hardest to hold myself to these standards. long term, your bankroll will appreciate it.

    I'm kind of confused what we're trying to accomplish when check raising flop 6-10x with our bad draws. If we're taking this big sizing under the assumption that our opponent is going to be calling a lot more with value hands that they should be folding, then why would we be putting a bunch of money in the pot with draws that are doing so poorly against that range, especially when our plan is to just give up turn when we don't improve? The first idea that comes to mind would be to just check raise small with these low equity bluffs and super nutted hands (which succeeds in folding out stabs with bad hands) while check raising large with super high equity bluffs and our other good value hands like QQ+, J9, AJ, 22 etc.
