the *free* content you're consistently putting out is SO strong

Online micro stakes is extremely difficult to put anyone on a range. People will call your 3x 5x even 10x raises sometimes with absolutely anything

Thanks to you and your team for all the hard work yall all do it's really helpful thank you

Thank you for all the free content. Your advice and teaching has changed the way I play. It's giving me confidence at the table and guys at the casino have noticed the change. I haven't told anyone what I'm doing and where I'm getting my information from. Lol. Guess that's kind of selfish... I'm going to win a few more 'pots' before I let them know! Lol. Seriously, thank you!

you are on of the best coaches thank you❤

What's a decent way to proceed if you know an opponent is playing loose & fairly aggressive, but you're not sure where their "extra" hands are coming from? For example, say there are two players to your right that you notice are both playing similarly loose & reasonably aggressive. I couldn't assume both are playing the same types of hands, right? ie Player A may be playing too many high + low card suited hands (K4s/Q3s/J2s/etc, & player B may be playing too many unsuited connectors + gappers (QTo/Q9o/JTo/T8o/etc). & different boards will interact with their loose ranges differently so I am having trouble understanding how to estimate my equity if I don't see enough of their cards to know where their range is loose. When I use equilab I understand how to study different spots with different boards vs different ranges, but there are so many different ways a not-so-great opponent could be playing too loose so what's a logical way to proceed when you know someone is playing too many hands but not sure which hands make up their loose range?

Why I can't see this video on your channel's video section?

Nice to hear that Bernie Lee is a senior pickleball champ. I've only played against him once, maybe 15 years ago when the only low-rake tournament at Rockingham Park (former track) was a weekly $250 that usually drew in 20 players at 2 tables, and paid 3 or maybe 4 places. I played it 9 times for $2250 in, and conveniently cashed out $4500 to double my money. I won it outright twice, chopped 1st/2nd twice. Anyway, back to Bernie.... The one time he and I played against each other in that tourney, we were the chip leaders at our table when I hit the king high flush, absolute 2nd nuts. Guess what Bernie had. When an excellent gets the best cards, it's a deadly combination. Would you rather be coolered by a genius or a clown, when the hand would have played out the same against either? I have mixed feelings about it, but generally prefer getting coolered by a clown, both to encourage them to play more poker, and because it doesn't come with the feeling that "if it weren't for that one cooler hand, I could've given that great player a run for their money." Either way, coolers don't tilt me, but against a good player, I do replay it in my head more than usual.

audio sounds great.

thanks coach

Just got the gist of nut advantage so I'm going to check out this video.

Thank you so much. I'm scared for my opponents a year from now if I keep studying.

So, I play low stakes live. My opponent generally is clueless about range or nut advantage. Is a 2-5 player going to be affected when I play specific ranges?

best to know good poker , you are able then to be exploitative and correctly know when people are makin mistakes

What if they don't know they have the range advantage?

The more I study, the more i realise books are actually messing you up because they just dont talk about this stuff enough

im sure phil ivey and tom dwan is not thinking about range or nut advantage or memorizing charts they live in the moment u have to tap into your intuition

44:00 What makes J8s so much weaker than other similar hands like J9s and JTs? It doesn't want to check-raise as much or call off IP's 3b shove. My best guess is that it blocks the bottom of opponent's calling range (86s-89s) that we can profitably bluff against on later streets - I think this reasoning is consistent with for example how Th8h check-raises way less frequently than Th9h, etc. Thoughts?

There’s a concept called ‘staying on topic’.

This game has become very technical, and sometimes it seems like skill plays a bigger role than luck. I really wish fckn politicians would allow California and other states to participate in online poker.. Dam it.

I agree but you have to play more than you study. In chess studying is important to improve your knowledge in other words to improve the static aspects of the game which do not change. This aspects broadly speaking are opening theory and end games mainly and positional play in the middle game. Which you do away from the table. But in general how you improve is by playing loads because it improves your tactical play (calculation) which is without a doubt the single most important aspect in chess as it trumps everything else. This is the reason why computers are so good not because they have a sound theoretical knowledge but because they can calculate accurately. For sure theory gives you and edge against opponents of similar strength but not as much as your calculating ability. In poker where theory is much smaller than in chess where does this balance lie? In chess a GM could open 100% of his range against a decent Master level player and win most of the time. Not sure if in poker an elite player could open 100% of hands and show a profit against decent players ( perhaps in deep stack cash games) For sure a sound theoretical knowledge gives you an edge against opponents at the same level. So we know that there is an advantage. But the real edge in my opinion is in gameplay at least in chess. Do you think poker is the same as chess in that respect? I guess that it depends in the variant that you play I guess in Holdem theory is more of important than in six card Omaha so long as you are playing short stack. I don’t know what do you think? Is stack depth the single most important variable in poker?

GMs don't calculate as much as you think they rely heavily on pattern recognition. When the patterns matches they exploit. That's why gms do worse in unfamiliar positions. GMs probably study 8 to 10h a day and probably play a maximum of 13 tournaments a year, so they play about 110 days a year and study the rest. Super gms play a lot of blitz and online rapid, so maybe they play 150 days a year

Is I’m Johnathan little’s kid I’m gonna switch from chess to poker. My teenage son is just now old enough to play 1/2 and I play for living I’m like why don’t u learn poker? They all want to play shooter games and chess, and like u said before there is always someone vastly better but poker has plenty of bad players and u can make xtra money doing it!!!

Just a hopefully helpful critique. 58 minutes of which 20 is not on topic. Too long for me.
