Take bottom of ur opening ranges to bluff.

"Everything in poker derives from value" is a really good thing to remember. I also like the way he emphasized the blockers. The bet sizing before the river was something else I had not thought of.

Yes I like Matt’s stuff. A lot. I really like how he always refers back to his opening range composition from his seat “LoJack i’m playing suited 8s and offsuit 10s-so that interacts with this flop in such and such a way…”

Poker players be like “For this hand we’re just gonna go ahead and play game theory perfection computational algorithmic master optimal.”

This is one of the most gangster plays with Q9s and I love you

Matt, John and Alex Fitzgerald are the most I learn from. Matt is a scary player to see when you playing on ACR and he pops up lol...Keep up the good work

It's always a little reassuring when you see a video with a pro and realize you played a similar spot in a really similar way with a really similar line of thinking, but also really terrifying that you came about it by accident.

This makes me feel better than even pros make mistakes like this Good video

Matt Afflack is one of my favorite coaches at pokercoaching! Hope you both are doing well

Love this hand. What about Ace High? Ace rags?

I won tens of tournaments bluffing at least 80% of hands i played. When you catch good hands, but flop, turn, river don't connect with your hand, checking is not an option if you know how to play. There's people convinced that folding everything and waiting only for pocket pairs or good suited hands is a good strategy, i doubt it. Floating is a way better strategy

Is min-raise pre a good play because its 33BB or the field is getting smaller?

In fact maybe how you change your strategy river between regs and recs river

The importance of what suit is better to take as a bluff or as a give up

Value bet bluff. I think if you went all in V snap calls. The V has all the tens.

I see Matt Affleck I think of Duhamel cracking AA during main event of 2010 nothing else

Bossman, how does one substantially build a bankroll, like I literally met Alex Foxen at my gym and he said he won 10k in a tournament and played full time from there. Watched an interview and chidwik won like 40k when he was 21 in a tournament. And I know to play properly bankrolled for tournaments you need like 100 buy ins so we’re these guys just playing out of there bankroll and just spiked a huge tournament or did they just like start with a huge some or did they play micros and stuff?

Typical small bankroll strategy, from my perspective as a semi-serious hobbyist, is grind until you have 10-12 buy ins for the next level and level up from there, go up or down as required. If you were going to take it seriously and try for a living at it, then it's typically a, grind out a living playing cash, and take shots at proper tournaments. If it's once a year and it's a higher buy in than you are used to, then as long as you are feeling good about your study, have proper mindset and you are feeling patient, go for it. Keep notes, variance sucks but you can't blame overplaying a hand as variance biting you. That's a great way to learn, and will put you in a great position to not blow your money if you get to bink a nice win. Winning 10k doesn't mean you get to play a 10k tournament next week. You still have to grind it out. Most people don't have the money sense it takes, you need to be like Alan Kessler with your money until you can actually afford to spend some of it.

Really? 12 buy ins seems a little ridiculous.

@@michaelchin8934 ridiculous high or low? If you are playing micro stakes and you win a $1 online tournament for $200, you wouldn't take a shot or two at an $11-$20 tournament? Do you wait for 200 buy ins like Jonathan Little says he did for SNG's? or maybe you say "woohoo! I ran good one time, let it ride on a $200 buy in tournament!" Knowing that as a tournament player you can expect to lose 85% of the time. What's your ratio? Beginning players typically use a 10:2 ratio (ten buy ins then take 2 shots) if you have a better bankroll then it normally shifts to 20:2, then later you get to the 100:1 and 200:1 ratios. Notice the bigger your bankroll the more it's protected from swings by changing your ratio of bankroll size to buy ins. If you have $1,00,000 and fire twice into a $500k then you're broke if things don't go well. Not a wise plan. But you can fire 2,000 times into a $500 buy in, it's called grinding for a reason. As Doyle Brunson says "Poker is a hard way to make an easy living."

I think IT was good play from both sides hero call was Okey because he was beating 4+ samé missed Diamonds

Is it a coincidence that the best deep stacked cash game players are guys that love to blast the pot? Cats like true teller and Malinowski?

The correct play here requires big balls.

Or simply check it down. Making moves against an opponent you don't know... recipe for disaster. Of all the spots to punt 2/3 of your stack, this is the one you picked?

Why matt affleck looks so weird?? Did he looser weight?
