Honestly all HH review videos should be just like this, great format.

Really good video / lesson

From what I can tell from my DB and notes on players they 3 bet or will iso a limp at very high % but play very fit or fold post flop. Also, they seem to give way too much respect to a limp re-raise, and are only continuing with AK/ QQ+ in most cases. I have been waiting for them adjust but its like they are bots or something very rarely deviating from their strategy.

Hi I have a lot of experience but have recently been spending more time studying and trying to improve. I am a regular at 25NL & 50NL on a few sites and have a database of a few 100k hands. I was winning at 9/BB per 100 but on a really bad downswing now sitting at 5.88/bb 100 on 25NL zoom.

Discord would be good but always looking to learn or help others.

PartyPoker has the best rakeback & promotions plus softest cash games.
If GGpoker didn't take a pre-flop rake I would put them #1.

Is having a low frequency limp range from EP ( LJ & HJ ) in nitty 6 max pools full of rakeback grinders that 3bet at a very high % but overfold to 4 bets bad?

Small frequency limp range would include:

22-77
Almost all suited aces
AA, KK, AK.

Limp re-raising the suited aces and AA,KK & AK, limp calling the pairs.

I would be interested in the coaching but I already have all of the solved PF ranges, charts, tools/software etc.

Great video and it was a nice to have some unique content.

Shaun do you take on new students for coaching? I am mainly a 25NL & 50NL player starting to dabble in 100NL. I have a lot of experience but am trying to improve.

Thanks HawksWin. I think those conditions include a scenario where I limp and then call a 3 bet though right ? I am trying to to filter for just the hands that I limp and end up raising someone raising my limp, or maybe I am getting that wrong?

I have studied this video extensively. Going to give this strat a try at 1/2 on PartyPoker.

One of the best videos I have watched in a long time.

btw LOL at the top set of kings vs the Q3dd float ...what a run out.

Love the stud high content. The game is making a big comeback!

Good stuff. It does seem like the small turn or river blocker bets get raised almost always, several spots in this video.

Great video, would be a nice to a see a live play vid of RunItTwice with Steve Paul reviewing 2-4 tables.

As a full ring only player ...mainly because I come from a live poker background, videos like this are great. There are some FR NL cash videos on the site but would welcome a lot more and would make it a easy decision to keep subscribing.

105bbs deep and 2nd in chips? I would almost always fold here unless I had a good read villain could easily show up with a really weak hand here. Even then I might wait for a better spot.

If your in a big downswing, take some time off. You are mostly playing 25nl? Which probably means you are not playing for a living. The game will be there when you come back.

Why not go out for a camping trip, hike, or out to the bar with some friends etc. Come back after a week off and you will be feeling fresh and hungry. Maybe I am just superstitious but whenever i take a little time off and then come back, I always seem to run really well.

I sort of liked this hand up until your bet on the turn, checking back here would be optimal...As played this is a fold on the turn.

Flop lead then turn check raise, that is a super, super strong line, we dont even beat K10 here. Unless villain has shown some maniacal or spewy play, calling the river seems pretty crazy.

Villain is going to have some equity here however we are going be ahead so often given the flop texture and action. You should almost always be ahead here and I would never be folding in this spot.

Your cold 4 bet sizing is definitely interesting, also why such a small flop bet of like 30% pot ..you kind of induced this on yourself :)

I still have a lot to learn about this game but I definitely don't understand how calling here would be profitable.

TT is a premium hand, especially in 6 max and we want to be building the pot with this holding. I like your 3-bet here against the MP opener, as obviously we are ahead of everything except 4 hands, JJ,QQ,KK and AA.

Flat calling out of position here seems like it is going to make the hand a lot more difficult to play however against a specific villain, EP raiser or in a multi-way pot sometimes calling can be the right choice.

This is a pretty decent flop for our holding, I would be betting for value here and re-evaluating things on the turn. As played, villain is showing a lot of strength however as Samu mentioned we have a lot of equity to make this turn call. Your line also looks very weak, so life is going to be difficult for you on the river :)

I don't think I have ever been good here with one pair, when calling in this spot on the river.

I like your sizing pre-flop and I think this whole hand would have had a different outcome if you had bet larger on the flop. I would have bet around 80% pot here.

Not trying to disagree with others here but this isnt 5/10NL, where betting small on the flop with the intention of barreling future streets is optimal. This is the micro's, new, recreation players are going see the good price they are getting and peel, then get married to their marginal holdings.

Put the fear into them with a healthy sized bet :)

This spot sucks!

I think I would have played it almost exactly the same, really dependent on your read of villain here...People dont 4 bet bluff very much in the micros and his line is so strong.

Try not to make life difficult for yourself by playing pots like this when you are out of position.

At the micro's just try to make things easy on yourself and try to avoid difficult spots, this wasnt the best board to pull off this type of move given the action.

A couple of things to take away from the hand, look at the villains stack size. Unless he is a fish on a heater this is most likely a very competent and good player. Given the action why would his river over bet be a bluff? I think his most likely holdings are very nutty like AA, 7x, 33.

This is a really tough spot..

I almost always check behind here and re-evaluate on the river. I don't think we can be committing as much as we are in a spot like this with our somewhat marginal holding.

Your going to be good here a lot of the time and villain will most likely play very fit or fold on the river since his check on the turn opens up his river bet range to include tons of bluffs and he should know, that you know that.

Opening the button with T9 is great, unfortunately this flop is not so great.

It is super connected and will be hitting a decent portion of the BB's range here. Even if the villain does not have an ace here, he is going to call with so many hands, and keep in mind even if you hit your gutter, it might not be good.

Just fold here and find a better spot.

I tried poker stoving a tight range for villain here and stacking off was really close to break even, or slightly +EV.

Having a blocker to the K of spades makes it kind of tricky, as it eliminates a lot of the potential flush draws he might have. This is 6 max not full ring and it being CO vs a button 3 bet makes me lean towards getting it in here.

...Definitely going to be seeing a set here a lot but people at the micros will show up with all sorts of things and even against a competent player you should be doing okay versus his overall range.
