This means a lot, thanks Jason.

I’ve been watching a load of your videos over the last few weeks and it’s your content that has improved my game the most, especially watching the videos during your coaching sessions. A switch has flicked with regards to reading board textures and ranges and how that correlates with betting and barrelling frequencies etc. as you are able to explain and demonstrate it clearly.

It's really great how direct you are with common thinking that people would have in these spots. It's very helpful. Thank you for the amazing value in your content.

Liked on the T9 hand how Clark targetted one pair hands and put them on a tough spot.

Cat-ot corner! Congrats on 10k subs. Been here way before that enjoying from losing to cruising / stalling to mauling, the hand reviews and the podcasts. Keep it up

Your analysis between pro and amateur were spot on. As an amateur who’s taken the last 2-3 days of bad Beats, bluffs being caught, and 3-bets being shoved, the anxiety has effected my play and made it worse. My tilt leads me to play loose and aggressive or turtle, both allowing me to exploited. Your video came randomly in my feed as if sent from a messenger. Thank you for articulating a valuable lesson so well.

This is some of the best mental game advice. I just had a session where nothing went right. Typically would have punted 5-6 buyins, but only lost 2.5.

This video, after my session last night, is unbelievably synchronistic. I am the Amaterus haha! The tilt drives me and it shouldn't... Great video as always!

I love this Video! Still as a winning player i found a few parts where i have the same thought processes like amatures which i will change because of you. You Mr Pete change my game already so much. Just wanted to say Thank you again

Thanks a lot for the kind words.

This video was recommended to me the past few days. Finally watched it. Good stuff man. You've got a new subscriber. GL

Just found your channel. I watch Doug Polk, Sontheimer, Charlie Carell, BTS, Galfond, etc. This is by far the most useful poker content I've seen on YT. Cheers and thanks m8!

Just came across your channel on this video. I watch a ton of poker content and this is great. This point of staying focused on +EV when losing hit home for me.

one of the best if not the best video so far. thank you for your work

love how you're so spot on, on all levels and sharing your thought process! big ups ;) serious poker wisdom!!

Very nice video - something I struggle with. Constant work to avoid the tilty slide

Nice video again. That k2s call at the end i am only able to make in the beginning of the session. Both running good or bad (or equal) will probably lead to me folding this hand. It is so hard to keep super sharp to find calls like this. The other spots feel a little more natural to me and I dont think i make errors there (also not if I am running bad).

You said on the second spot "especially with the queen" - why is the queen making this spot more underbluffed? Most of the draws missed, I agree that call pot pot from rec makes AJ bluff catcher, but the queen actually makes only one combo hit (kjc) since it has to be a combo draw on the turn. Like - what card would make this board overbluffed enough for call pot pot to be called eith AJ, except J or A, making AJ a value beater sometimes

Very nice call with the K2 and nice explanation. Well done

This is probably unironically the best poker video I've watched. Certainly top 5. I am really grateful for you uploading this.

Thanks so much for this kind verdict

i noticed this when i started watching pros. They’d get aces and rfi only to get folds around and they wouldnt even comment on it. Things like that. It made me realize how short sighted I was when I was playing. I realized “these guys are totally desensitized to the results. They just wait for opportunities and take them and there’s no difference between any hand they play at the emotional level”. It’s one thing to notice that and another to actually incorporate that. I think the only way to actually play like that as well is 1. to play a _lot_ and 2. to really practice emotional control. At first when you’re tilted probably just stop and come back in 30 min. Then you have to practice catching yourself, forcing yourself to stay cool, and then actually play focused. And if it doesn’t work take a break. rinse repeat.

"Congratulations, you've just trained yourself to play like an absolute C-game reg ... an absolute nit reg for the rest of your life, and you're gonna perish in the depths of redline misery because of that." - Ouch!! Great vid!!

thanks for this, I've seen immediate benefits from using this approach! one question - what do you mean when you say "split"? thanks

Congrats on 10k!

The first hand with AT is exactly the issue I have. Just started playing poker a few months ago, I usually slowly win money, then give it all away on a big hand I just cant let go.

for the bluff with Tc9c, which hands would you have done that with for value that you wouldn't raise flop with?

This is an eye opener. I am that guy who will start playing stupidly because I lost one buy-in to a river suck-out and I feel compelled to get that buy-in back before the session ends. And you are right, it oftens gets worse! I can identify with this completely. A very insightful and useful bit of information and something I will take on board. Thank you

I always notice that when I’m sitting after one or two rebuys I become much more susceptible to calling big bets on the river when I KNOW my opponent is betting for value with a stronger hand, and Im holding two pair that is almost always in bad shape facing a large river bet. I know players don’t bluff enough at my stakes which makes it even worse, but it seems when I’m tilted and scrambling to build my stack I can’t help but make the call even when I am telling myself ‘this guy has hardly any bluffs but a ton of value in his range, my pair of aces will almost always lose’, then proceed to click call and see that villain rivered a straight. Perversely this doesn’t happen as often when I am sitting with 300bb, for some reason in that position I’m much more disciplined and happy to wait for a better spot, as I should be no matter my stack.

I’m watching this 13 days after you posted and you’re at 11k 🎉

I do love your videos and teaching style, but i am having a hard time in the 9d10d hand finding a 2pr plus hand that hero just flatted donk bet on flop. The 6d turn seems pretty much a blank.

In the 10 9 hand, a raise on the flop does very well against the range you described. Obviously as played it does well, but why prefer a call to a raise?

what every man needs to hear after a losing session - well done thanks

This video was much needed 😅 been running like absolute garbage for past week, but still managed to minimize losses🙌🏻

I enjoyed this breakdown. One tip - you might find a pop filter on your mic helps with some of the plosives.

Great advice as ever. Surely you'll get an order of magnitude more subs very soon. Top content.

Wow. Thanks bro. Good vídeo. Very good.

Regarding the 9cTc hand, one of the reasons I often feel reluctant to make these bluffs is because your range is basically limited to TJ. A set would very rarely go all-in, just in case villain has TJ. Thoughts?

There are a lot of bad sweeping statements about softer games which just aren’t true. For example people say ‘they never fold’ but there are lots of spots where population folds too often. The key is learning where people exhibit different tendencies and engaging with the specifics of each spot.

In the first hand vs A7, what do you call with? Do you call with pocket 7s? What about vs a reg? Is AT a call then?

I dont think it matters from a defence frequency perspective as pool is under bluffing so severely here but I think 77 is close and all better hands are clear calls.

I thought the carrots in the background were baguettes until you mentioned the carrots being better on CPS videos. Also, this video makes me feel like a poker pro, I def make the fold on AA729 whilst swearing and and shouting “ofc he fucking jams” at my monitor 🥳

One day, when I can afford the carrot school, I'll do it all. For now, thanks for the videos.

Who knows but this is the reason we can beat online poker after paying 8bb/100 or whatever in rake.

not a fan of the "you can do what ever you want, it doesn't matter" just because the ev of the options is the same in a solve. in a specific spot in a vacuum it doesn't matter but if you lean towards the passive or the aggressive side in every mix your game is going to be a mess. frequencies shouldn't be the focus but understanding why you take an action and how it impacts other lines matter more than if the play has the exact same ev as another play when the ev is connected to the frequencies. it is not a coincidence that alot of options have the exact same ev

My life is all about fortune reversal lol😂

Because when we’re OOP we can check/raise as unless it’s an especially passive rec they can be expected to bet a lot when checked to ESPECIALLY on double flush draw. In position this wools be more of a mandatory bet. PS. I’m going by memory here if I misremembered the spot then my apologies.

Nice content, had an awful situation at pko tournament today, im utg and find blackjacks in my hole. Theres a "crippled" villain with less than two bb left and before he got annihilated he picked up few bounties. So i want to grab those and make a hefty 8x straight away. Guy with ~2bb calls everyone else mucks, but the bb. He insta calls. Bb and i got about 100bb stack both. The board comes 28Q of hearts. Action checks to me and i pot it,bb insta calls again. Turn is a J heart. I check and bb shoves, and the way hes played im sure he had turned a flush. Im in the tank for a while and open fold my Jset. Cards open, "cripply" has pocket TT and bb Jd9h and the turn..... A board pairing 8of spades. I wanted to throw up, seriously. Now the question is should i just shove jj pf or what? But since the bb was quite a gambler i guess he wouldve calles anyways. But at that point i thought that i just got few flips home and got a decent start to go with, hence didn't wanted just shove jjs pf. Anything i could done better?

I understand down betting on the flop, but how come you don't like to continue with a turn down bet for value? It seems like you always size up whether you have a bluff or not

Nice

pete, how often do you have weeks where you lose every single session. constant coolers, constantly second best hands, constantly bad spots, bad rivers, getting raised by nits when 3 value combos you lose to and they just have it, over and over again

You could more than likley (like id bet money) hang at any buy in level that doesnt get you shaking. I dont think there would be a skill issue. Do you actually enjoy playing poker though? Im sure winning money is enjoyable to some extent, but do you actually like playing?

First hand: Why is AT even a Value bet, in the first place? - We beat a couple of small Axs, TT, probably 88. If Villain is completely sticky, some Kxs in Diamonds or Hearts. In total, anything between 5 and 15 combos. While we lose to AQ,AJ, A9,A7s,A2s,77,22,99. Isn't it at least about as profitable to play C/C, with our Value Beater, to catch some random bluffs?

@CarrotCornerPoker

We’re in position here so can’t check/call. I think the hand comfortable has enough equity to value bet big. There are a lot more combos like Ax (which doesn’t have to be suited in these positions) in villain’s range than there are boats and AJ/AQ will sometime raise earlier and often 3bet preflop as will 99. Id estimate our equity vs pool to be about 80% before we bet river but obviously much much less after facing the jam.
