TRUEPOWER

did you ask some of the coaches if they would do a review session of your hands?

great explanation here last hand with hating the 2/3 bet

to do you prefer going something between 125% - 150% pot?
if we do decide to have 2 sizes, having like a small bet as well at some frequency like 1/3 pot size bet?

reminds me of a spot i was in the other day, where i 3 bet J10 and ak actually flatted

villain played this hand awful actually, but if ep just 4 bets this i have to make a decision if im flatting or folding vs the 4 bet pre flop vs specific villain, because aks just flatted the 3 bet, you give the 3 better such a great price to 3 bet you, A) they just fold pre flop B) you flop a big hand C) you c bet and villain can fold when they dont hit

hey tyler great video

Great explanation on the benefits of of these lower stakes playing very exploitatively vs super theoretically sound.

in these stakes, 25nl 50nl 100nl, i think its very important to have a good GTO theoretical base knowledge of the game, but understanding what your opponents are doing using the information you have on them to exploit there tendencies to maximize our EV, like you explained in this video. what ive tend to be doing, when im table selecting, ill trend more carefully vs players who i know are more decent vs players i know who are weaker rec fish.

also near the end 52:00 you talked about how we REALLY need to be 4 betting AKdd pre flop here, which i couldnt agree more,

at 100 bbs, actually i believe when you get 3 bet with AKo out of position gto wizard it actually just likes a pure shove lol, in that its easier to just play, pick up equity when our opponents fold and are in decent shape vs some opponents who are calling with aq or aj, 1010, jj, qq pre flop. However, i think just pure 4 betting ako and aks can generate value when we hit the flop as well.

great video tyler!

Yes, day to day, what do you think a good goal is? Is it money? Time? Or hands played,

Sometimes, ahh yeah we had a great winning session yesterday I don’t have to play or don’t have to play as hard today, because yesterday was so successful,

Or omg I lost so much money yesterday I have to play ALL day today to try and win it all back lol,

For example let’s say okay I want to make $500 a day playing poker,
Should some days, will be break even, some days can be loss, some days I may reach that goal, some days I’ll go over the goal or some days I’ll win less than that goal.

Should we quit after playing for an hour if we reach that goal? Let’s say we play for 8 hours and we don’t reach our goal? Or say we get in 5 thousand hands in a day and we’ve lost numerous buy ins.

Or is it just focusing on all the things that lead to long term success, going to to the gym, eating healthy, and putting in a solid 8-12 hours a day of good poker win or loss?, if we feel like playing play, if we don’t feel like playing don’t?

No no the 54 dd hand, another combo 109hh would have made the straight flush on the river I forgot about mentioning!

makes sense! i wasnt suggesting to fold the k either in relation to which k is better to call with!

how do we reach our goals without being results oriented, if the goal is based around the result

for example, lets say our goal is to grow our bankroll and move up the stakes right

although, during a downswing this can feel really tough, or almost impossible even,

stick to, playing good poker, improving in a specific node of the game, put in x amount of hours, instead of having the goal a $ amount.

It has to be rooted in the journey, coming to work everyday, enjoying the process all the way through.

Like i may not be where i want to be at the moment of my poker career, but if I look back at myself even 1 year ago, im a lot closer now than where i was then. imo

just takes consistency and dedication!

Another great video Chris!

really great breakdown here of this hand

you mentioned here for linus making this call, to call with the Kc more often assuming because k9 suited would raise more often than k9o

however isnt the kc a bad card to bluff catch with because its less chance Stephon would be bluffing here with say AX of clubs? And if we do decide to make this call were hoping Stephon has clubs?

hey tyler great video again! love hearing your breakdown of these hands!

this flop action outside of anything i do in my games
high stakes 3 way bvb action,
small bet, davy jones re raise fine,
but the 3 bet on the flop from stephon just seems wacky haha i guess backdoor spades and straight draws. you mentioned its purely exploitative, think maybe theres a leveling war going on here as well.

thanks again!

awesome!

i went to the wsop last year, but mainly just been studying and playing cash since! mix between online and live

great video Steve! really great format fun to review run it twices hands!

sidenote, reading through the comments checked out your hendon mob, see that your from kitchener! i live in london so not too far, are you mainly playing cash nowadays or do you still play some tournaments now and then?

thanks again!

pretty sick hand here, in a game i wouldnt be playing in, in a 4 bet pot with hands i wouldnt have lol sick call though

hey nacho great video, fascinating trying to decipher these live cash game players thought process,

58:00

ew what a gross turn card, i like raising the turn as well, then he just bombs it, rip

really gross spot here for Garrett and a wicked raise by Robl here on the turn, Andrews actually got a ton of outs but has to feel hes behind, Garrett the old top pair top kicker has to be somewhat cautious with calling here as there are some scary rivers, interesting hand!

some of my favourite players to watch play live! thanks for doing the hand breakdowns here very informative!!!

its my favourite hand of the video! haha
now that i think deeper about the hand, you mentioned it in the video, hard to find that A7 shove here, little scary given the board

another hand i forgot to think of is 109hh, i guess could check back the turn and just bomb the river. Also has to 3 bet pre flop with it, shrug

yes, because nothing is totally absolute!

yes, when youre just clicking bet or checking without thinking about those other things youre like neglecting that whole other part of the game tree that should be helping you with your decisions throughout the hand

Ahh yeah, I mostly play cash on pokerstars Ontario, but I’ve played a little bit of tournaments on gg, but if a hassle having to go into craft and drag the files back to hm3 because gg has its own hud! Think about playing cash on gg a little bit more but I believe the rake is a bit higher not sure about their rake back.

Yes I’ve watched you take notes during your play, it’s fairly quick something I should do more often! Especially when it comes to your thoughts about the hand, especially, your thinking process during the hand, can deviate a bit after you study, look at the hand after, you’re thoughts during the hand, how you played it, and then what was the best way line taken given all the factors taking in for consideration!

if villains always checking here his non value hands basically can never call when he bets because its always value! which means hes not bluffing enough lol

lmao just rip the river

really great explanation why this jam is just bad, and youre only getting called when your beat.

Great video Tyler! I’m currently playing 100nl and 50nl online trying to grind it up and move up stakes! So this videos great,
It’s awesome to hear your analysis of the player pool in this demographic. I think a common misconception is that players don’t generally bluff enough at these stakes, and they tend to always have it on the river. Although if you dive deeper into there lines, they often don’t make sense! Just about paying attention while you play and get a feel for their range in specific hands/lines they take! Thanks!

Hey Luke great video! Thanks!

Ahh yes, it’s always humbling to go back to the stakes you first learnt the game and realize how much your game has changed since, and that you suck now and can’t beat these stakes anymore lmao …

Fantastic video here Tyler!

Sb vs bb 4 bet pots, not line I’m super well studied in only because live 1/3 and 2/5 blinds just chop,
Online when I’m playing 100nl, generally opening from sb the bb in my pool just flats a HUGE amount of the time, to where if there is a 3 betting in the bb often it’s the top part of there range,, as well, or maybe I’m just a nit and not giving them credit for 3 betting as wide. a lot of the time facing a some
Limps from earlier position to where then sb isolates, and if bb 3 bets there range is fairly polar imo, I’m gonna run into gto wizard and practice this specific spot tonight, 4 bet pots from sb vs bb and 3 bet pots bb vs sb.

The ak in sb hand 4 bet vs 99 interesting in that 354 board, when bb shoves the flop, like you say we kinda hate it and life’s a bit awkward!

Great video!

Hey Luke great video!

Great to see how you process your day, studying/play routine

Something I do that just really bad tendency, I’ll play or see a really interesting hand, want to run it or think about it while I’m playing re analyze what happen, open hm3 tag it, re play it while I’m playing, maybe pick up on some things about my opponents but it kind of disengages me while I’m playing, not that I’m too distracted but I feel like it takes away from me focusing on the tables I’m at, while I’m looking at a hand I just played. So I just need to look at it after my session lol.

wow outstanding hand here, we block nothing, when i find myself with straights, on paired boards and flush comes in on river its like uggggh we have pure bluff catcher lmao. Great read, and great explanation about why the Ax hh doesnt make sense, sure he can have some a6 or 66 small amount of the time.

Also outstanding video luke! Love all your videos but love watching you play 200nl because it’s close to the stakes I’m playing atm! You’re always insightful and Always teach things to learn from!

Love the 40% sizing here with the set of 22s
