    Always raise when opening! Even the small pocket pairs, they can turn into good bluff candidates to balance your range. Also don’t be afraid to pitch small pocket pairs from early positions. 5-2’s do not play well post flop out of position. Also some terminology when you make 3 of a kind with a pocket pair it’s a set, when you make three of mind with 2 on board it’s trips. Those are terms the cool kids use. Keep it up you’re already playing much better than your first vlog

    Hang in there, its like any gambling, up and down. My 2c...not sure if you edited some hands out but you passed on some hands that I might have played. Maybe loosen up your range just a little. Also, don't underestimate the power of the C bet. And lastly, I think you are not getting the most value out of your bets. I'd bet more money with your sets and good hands. Don't give them a chance to fill those straights and flushes. Keep in mind what's in the pot and consider a pot size bet. "Good Luck in Coloring Up. "

    You have to mix some semi bluff in like if you have pocket 10 and you raise pre flop and the flop is A high you have to make a c bet because you should have a A in your range (depends which position you are) if you will not mix in semi bluffs in to your game you will not make Money because I always bet for value Better luck 🤞 next time

    I think you have to open (raise) those pots even with the small pocket pairs. You can represent AK, AQ and also have hidden sets. Limped pots aren't profitable too often.

    Poker, like craps, is a ride through variance. Just when you feel like quitting after a few bad runs, there's the one time to make you forget all about the down times.

    I would suggest playing a cheap tournament too and see how long u can last. U learn a lot and different strategies from tournament play as opposed to just cash games. Everything takes time and you just gotta play as much as u can that way basic strategy becomes muscle memory and u can focus on how your peers play.

    I promise you, don't play in those nitty morning games. Rake is unbeatable if everyone is playing nitty and not throwing money around. No amount of education is gonna help you beat Tuesday morning games, trust me. Only play on thursday-sunday nights, I garuntee the games will be noticably more easy/loose. Made this mistake for awhile before I realized how important this really is. Even if your a winning player and make 20/hour. If you play Monday morning you might only be making 0-5/hour, it's that big of a difference. Which we can all agree 0-5/hour is pointless

    You look like you're folding a lot of suited connectors. I'm not sure if you're folding them outright or if there were raises in front but those are some good hands to try to limp with, or even see the flop for $6 and hope for a flush or straight.

  • @coloruppoker

    I showed all my hole cards, not every hand I played. I play suited connectors especially if in later positions. If I didn't show, either I missed the flop and folded to bets, or everyone folded to a continuation bet and I didn't win much and wasn't worth showing in video

    only one buy in ..i don't think you made..any big mistakes...every player is gonna make small mistakes every session..no one plays perfect poker....I would have like to seen you get more money in the pot when you flopped the set of 6's..with 5 players in the hand just assume someone has the Q...and bet pot or over pot...pot the turn and all in on the river...no one in 1/2 is ever folding trip queens there...easy double up
