I liked everything about this lesson. The strategies were well-explained. Thanks for doing these!
stop hating on Daniel guys. He's one of the biggest poker players ever, and has accomplished things you can only dream of. Show some rakespect.
Yea he rakes up leaves quick
@@davgallas lol
@@davgallas chips/pots get raked, too
Last time i watched this i went on to get 8th of 1456 players in the SCOOP 6 max $11 buy in, it was my first ever two day tournie, day two i was card dead but managed a decent finish. Im about 10 hours away from that very same tournie so thought i would pop over for a refresher. Im searching YT for ANY Limit content at the moment. Thanks DNegs.
very insightful D-Neg. i rarely play limit and i do not find many helpful limit (short) videos to help educate me. limit seems more action packed and loose, which in turn makes it more fun while also limiting massive up/down swings. i really enjoyed this vid! & this is also the advantage you have over other amateur poker vloggers, you actually provide useful & highly experienced advice on mixed games (not just NL and PLO).
Really appreciating your 'how to' series, Daniel thanks. Helping me spot adjustments I haven't been making on these games. I hope you will be covering the full set of 22 games from the Dealer's Choice bracelet event. Thanks so much for sharing the information.
Great video on limit holdem. Concise and clear. Really enjoying these Daniel - thank you!
Daniel, great video!
I live in Brantford and our casino only has limit holdem (I know that you've played there in the past). I don't play there as much as I'd like, and I've been meaning to studying up on more Limit. I think this is going to greatly improve my strategy going forward.
Thanks for putting this kind of content out!
How to play limit hold' em by Sal T Balsak. 1. Raise your pocket pair pre-flop (everyone calls). 2. Flop a set, bet again (everyone calls). 3. Turn is mildly connected or suited to the board, bet again, (everyone calls). 4. River is another mildly connected card, but not suited, bet again, everyone folds except one player who raises you. 5. Call raise. 6. Watch them turn over their runner runner gut-shot straight. 7. Wish you were playing no-limit instead. 8. Repeat.
Sal T Balsak You should bring up the guy that limps Q's flop a set on a K high board and just calls you to the river, making you believe your top pair was good.
There are many components to poker secrets. One plan I discovered which successfully combines these is the card crusher fixer (google it if you're interested) definately the most useful plan i've heard of. Check out all the interesting info .
literally happened to me a few days ago. flopped a set of fives, two clowns get runner runner to make a straight on the river.
You sound a bit....salty ;-)
...but seriously just play NL if that tilts you
Yup. You nailed it
I'd love to see a video to transition from limit to NL. I realize pretty much all the videos are around NL, but having always only played limit poker in casinos, I'd love to hear your take on the transition in that direction. As always, thanks for the videos and advice!
This was really helpful. I went to play at a casino poker room for the first time this week. The only table was a limit hold em table and I played. I was surprised how different the strategy was with betting. I started to catch on after about a half hour. I found I was the only one betting and it helped me to clean up on some made hands with 5 people in.
But my strategy felt all over the place and I was second guessing all my decisions.
Looking forward to playing again soon with some of these strategies.
Thank you so much! When I read Mike Matusow's book he said: "Limit and no-limit are as different as piss and water". This is magnanimous. Same rules, same water base, but different in **perception** and I was always wondering what the strategy differences were. Excellent.
This was my second time at a limit table and your advice made me very profitable. Thank you, thank you.
Great video! Thank you for doing these little poker educational videos.......great stuff! Taking lots of good notes so far.
Daniel - you're amazing and I know you will never read this, but would love to see some scenarios where you compare a hand of no-limit to limit poker. I feel like this has made me feel like I need to play looser pre-flop, but I don't feel like that's a winning strategy. Since people don't bluff, when you have pocket 4s and have a bet / call in front of you, I don't feel like my 4's are worth continuing with. Your video made it seem like you need to re-raise in that situation. I like your other lessons where you actually talk about specific hands. I feel like this one was more about the rules than the strategy. Also - the strategy is probably quite different between low-limit (2/4) and high limits and also heads-up v full ring. Thanks so much, though, for this resource. Very helpful
I love that vlog! Limit Holdem is my favorite game because of the betting structure, I wish it were more popular today.
When they offer high hands does that change your stategy?
Love playing LHE. Thanks for uploading, Dnegs.
I want to play at a table with Daniel, even if I last only 3 hands, it'll probably be the most fun 3 hands I'll ever play in.
i played with Daniel 2005 World Series Razz for about 3 hours same table, really nice guy
you need to go to the WSOP then...cause it ain't coming to you...
Refreshing to hear limit advice. Wish there was more.
check out runitonce, there are some limit holdem videos
I’ll be dealing the World Series main this year for my first time. I hope to have you on my table O.G.
Thanks for the tips, Daniel. Just what I needed to hear to get my game back into gear. Im up a c-note!
Great vid. Got a new found love of mix games. Loving 7-2 lowball and razz. Thanks Daniel.
If you play as aggressive as Daniel recommends, you're going to have some crazy bankroll swings. LHE is filled with calling stations.

you are bad ass man I love how you show your bluffs sometimes if you think about it that's pretty genius if you got your guy double guessing himself a lot of the time he'll call more often when you go all in with the nutz
This was very helpful. I'm looking to start playing live low stakes limit at my local card room soon, and need to know stuff like this. I played online NL tournies at Bovada for a couple years, but I'm making the switch to live
Matty Sweetwater Pay attention to the drop.
This has been helpful I’m been playing like no limit do to the videos I been watching. Ya I play magic the gathering and I like to play aggressively I like to rush ppl so thank u now I know limit is where I need to be at and to stop playing basically scared like in no limit
3bet pre with any two cards. Bet on every street with A high. Raise the turn with bottom pair. Man I LOVE it when players like this sit down at my LHE table.
Great move to highlight the other pokerarts! I had forgotten how fun some of them are...
Thanks for the vids Daniel. What game are you thinking about covering next time?
Those were the day i remember when you and I played at the bridge club on Bathrust st.
Fun times those days.
I also am learning a lot thanks for the info and good luck to you in the future
More rake is... just kidding, I enjoy these videos a lot. Thanks for the great work Daniel :)
daniel is da man.. best poker player i ever seen, makes it look easy.
This is really helpful, Daniel, I’m going to give it a try! Thank you!
It works, i can attest to that from personal experience.
Great video D! Really explained some good strategies!! Tyvm
Hey Daniel, thank you for the tips, you are doing a great job! :)
I want to ask you, what's your favorite poker variation?
I hope you'll see my comment...
Congratulations on all your winnings. Thanks for the videos also!
Daniel.
you are totally 100 % the best poker player there is. I love Tony G for his aggressiveness . And his obnoxious table manners. It's all part of his game. If I could combine the two I'd be the best player this world has ever seen. Love you both.
Legend says if you are fast enough, Daniel responds!
Great tutorial. Thanks Daniel.
Daniel! Would really like too see a How to Play OFC Poker video. Cheers!
awesome video, it was hilarious when you yelled reraise! with aq
Hey Daniel, can you make a video on PLO8 strategy, give us some tips?
Daniel, i think you should consider reviewing viewers hands. Would allow for more interaction with the community that watch your videos. Awesome video btw!
great video...makes sense...I always wondered if I was correct when I was playing limit when I was playing so many pots I just couldnt fold when I normally would fold playing no limit.
Hi Daniel. It would mean the world to me if you said hi back. :) thx for the video I didn't know much about limit.
Does Daniel have any videos of limit Holden games being played? I'd like to see him play limit.
so if you have a gutshot on the flop, the best way to generally play it is to check raise flop, bet turn and check/fold river unimproved? thanks.
Hi Sir. Can you do a video on Pot Limit Holdem please? Thanks for the great lessons. @Daniel Negreanu
So if everyone is opening their range and playing aggressively wouldn't it be better to be a little nitty? Would the stakes really change your strategy like in a 6-12 game?
John Barry I play 6-12 half kill on a regular basis and I absolutely think It's essential to tighten up your range when on an aggressive table. Going nuts with 2-2 or A-Q in a multiway pot despite not connecting with the board, like Daniel suggested, is just going to cost you big bets in the end---as he mentioned, nobody is folding for just 1 bet in limit.
you are my all time favorite poker player. it would be sick to play with you someday
I think that the advice in this video is for mid to high stakes games but is far too aggressive in low stakes like the 3/6 I'm currently playing. Where everyone plays pretty passively and very rarely bluffs. Raises preflop usually means AA-QQ and AK, AQ, some players I play against never raise, no matter what and checkraises don't exist. People do go too far with their hands but don't call the river without a pair. If you triple barrel with Ace high all the way to the end, you're just giving your money away, I've made that mistake a few times. You pretty much have to have the best hand to win but if you have a better and more disciplined preflop strategy and can make good reads postflop you can still make money. I'm still chasing the two big bet an hour goal, currently winning about 1.75 bb/hr live.
You can’t protect your hand in a limit game. I tried playing limit for years. I only wanted 50 bucks a day. It’s easier in no limit.
excellent heuristics daniel, thank you very much
The biggest pot I won in Limit Holdem was with a pair of 8's. It was a 7 or 8 way capped pot, I had 8c9c and the flop came 6c7c8d, it was capped again on the flop, turn was an off suit 2, it was capped 6 or 7 ways again. The river was another 2. I turned over my hand and muck, muck, muck, muck... The dealer ships me a mountain of chips, its so much fun when the dealer has to stand up and push the chips in 4 or five loads. :-)
What limits are comparable in skill when comparing Limit to No limit? i.e - if your a solid 400nl reg online and jumping into limit poker for the first time where should you start? Also, on same note how should you be treating bankroll management if you would normally want to have 50 buy ins as a NL reg what is going to keep you comfortable playing limit?
400nl is like 8/16 Limit holdem. HIghcard value goes up compared to nuttiness in NL, also ofc thinner valuebets, less bluffing frequency as betsizes are smaller compared to the pot. 500BB would be a "loose" BRM, would rather go for 1000BB, but I would also go in NL for a tigther BRM.

I like the 3 bet pre flop and raising on draws on the turn. I'm about to drive the 3/6 players at my local club crazy.
Let's say I play middle suited connectors (like 6-7s) and bet the flop. At some point, might it make sense to fold them if none of my draws hit instead of bloating a pot I'm highly unlikely to win? I guess it's an investment in showing people that you'll 3-bet with crap sometimes, so your value bets will get called when you actually have something later. I don't think you can do this too often though and still be profitable. I'm sure Daniel has more of a tolerance for variance than most people who play limit hold em too. Not sure how well this will work at the tables I play at, but I'll give it a shot sometime. Definitely interesting to hear his perspective on limit hold em.
is daniel a sucessfull limit players or is nl and tournaments his best games?
Hi everyone ! Hi Daniel ! Thanks for sharing some thoughts about Limit Hold'em. I's a very fun game I started playing a few years ago. Could you guys tell me where I can find some videos ? I've been searching for a while but it's hard to find long tournament / cash game videos on Limit Hold'em. Thanks a lot ! Good luck at the table. Peace from France.
“Just, it’s a friendly thing, it’s a love tap, it’s a punch in the face just to remind you guys, like to speed up a little bit. Ok? So with love, it’s punches with love. That’s what we’re going with.” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
This is the most Canadian thing I think I’ve ever heard you say! You’re one of my top favorite players and I hope I can see you at a final table someday! 🤞
This did help me win more pots thank you Daniel
Does this strategy work for all limit games or higher limit, say 20-40 and up?
BRO. One of my worse pet peeves is people who talk to slow. Slot Thanks for the tutorial and for not talking hella slow.
I gave up 15/30 for slots with my wife and i think imma get back to my local casino. And just watched your vid for the update on poker after covid. Thanks Daniel.
Should you have the same starting ranges in limit as you would for no limit? Can anybody tell me?
I wonder at what games this advice is applicable. In the card rooms I play in, I feel like this wouldn't really work until 15/30....maybe 8/16. But next time I'm playing the 15/30 game, I'm definitely going to try this.
What is best simulator?
"Its a love tap. A punch to the face." Hahahaha.
would like to hear something like 2-7 NL single draw
This video makes me want to play limit hold em so bad!
Super helpful.
Thank you!
i luv u daniel!
I been struggling with my limit holdem games . I tend to play 2/4 because I am not a millionaire . I tend to play too conservative and only win like 2 to 3 hands in a 2 hr session . My question would be if you do what Daniel recommends , wouldn't you lose more money if you dont hit hands ? Unfortunately I get dealt alot of garbage most of the time and have no luck at all . Any advice ?
I guess raise tight with strong + hands
And just call limps with marginal and dump junk.
Everyone has the same luck in cards.
Thanks Kid!
punches of love? hahahaha. Gee thanks. I can feel the love. Does thin value mean thin profits? More time needed at the table to make a buck?
im so new what does 3 bet mean?
Thank you.
I don't know Daniel this may be true for higher limits like 10/20, but I play 3/6 and 4/8 and I found it generally better to bet on folding and knowing hit frequenxy actually. I don't know how many times near the button or on the cut off I have had say 10-j and raised pre and flop 5-10-2 and have an a ace 10 guy bet into me I reraise they call and another guy calls. The turn rolls to 5-10-2-q-k and slows down the action a bit they bet I just call/call and the guy shows ace 10 and with pocket jacks in the lead all along and sometimes someone else is along for the ride for a weird river king. I have done thousands of hand analysis with my shuffle machine and it's generally true 9 handed that you will have the best hand only 3 out of 20 hands. Knowing this and the fact nobody folds why get aggressive with pocket 88? When I play it's 5 -6 players to the flop every time 2 pair usually wins and so many flushes man! Heck when I play and reraise or bet out I get people winning off me with one spade on the flop no pair when I hold ak top pair or 2 pair and it just runs ut to their flush more often then even the 2 pair holding up
Is the stratel bet always an option or just at specific casino's?
*straddle
Average John first of all, it's straddle, second, depends on casino, even within the same state or city. Some only allow button, some button or utg, some anywhere but blinds. some any amount, some a specific amount. as a general rule, only button straddle is worth it, and that's very debated.
Thanks. 🍻
Hey Daniel How much would you charge for private coaching sessions? (Could be done through Skype or FaceTime etc) I'd love to learn from the best in the business (in my opinion)
Daniel Negreanu alright cool thanks for the fast answer man, and yes I will definitely continue to religiously watch all your videos for sure! See you at the tables soon
Google Daniel Negraneau, Masterclass
Best advice yet!!!
My idol
In before Daniel flexes or talks about his muscles.
Edit: 2 minutes in. New record! lol
do Razz
Can the Blinds fold after the cards are dealt before they put their money in the pot?
If you have a hand !Play Aggressive before pre-flop ! Check raise on the flop. Build the pot. Win big Pot.
How to become a player like you . Help me please
What a raise means on each street in Limit:
Preflop: I have two cards.
Flop: I still have two cards.
Turn: I have two cards that connected with the board. Maybe a full house, maybe a gutshot.
River: I have at least top pair. Or I'm just an idiot.
Two thing one the tanking is so bad for the game and fucking brutal agreed. 2. It’s interesting how poker culture changes because originally I played 2-4 limit my first scared day playing live at Borgata. But I don’t see that any more anywhere
The worst is the guy in the 1 or 10 seat that feels like he has to show the dealer his cards every hand.
cool thanks daniel
Are you saying "free bet" or "three bet"?
where are the muscles?
I've never played limit before. How do you three bet in limit 100/200 if the first two rounds cannot exceed 100?
If you're playing 100/200 LHE, the betting increments are $100 pre-flop and on the flop, and the bets on the turn and river are in increments of $200. So if you 3-bet preflop in 100/200 LHE, it means that the opening bettor made it $100, the first raiser made it $200, and you're putting in the third $100 bet to make it $300 to go. If you're 3-betting the turn in a 100/200 game, you're making it $600 total for your opponents to call. The other thing that NL players often get confused about is when we say "I was playing one and two at the Borgata last night..." In this instance, that means that we were playing 100/200 fixed limit poker of some kind, where as if we say "I was playing one-two last night," that means that we were playing 1/2 NL. 100/200 is really big game, btw.
Limit games are basically all 3 chip
6 chip raise or
4 chip and 8 chip raise games. 100-200 is basically 4-8 limit but for high rollers using 25 Chips. Buy in for 2 racks for $5000. The game is no tighter than 4-8 limit. Believe me!
The annoying thing with those games is that you can only find online action in Pokerstars (good reason for Daniel to be making those videos), and the competition there is tough even at the lowest of the lowest levels. I din't try limit hold'em, but I tried Stud H/L, Stud, Razz, 2-7, Omaha H/L, everyone knew their basic stuff.
Well, I guess you have to decide which Guru to follow. I‘m with Sklansky.
What’s a three bet? What’s value betting, don’t hurt me I’m new 😭
Played Limit last night. I'm UTG with QQ. SB has 3, 6 offsuit. SB Limps and I open pre flop. SB calls. Flop is 5, 2, 6 rainbow. SB Checks, I bet...SB Calls. Turn is a 9. SB Checks, I bet...SB calls. River is, of course, a 3. SB checks, I bet. SB calls and wins.
I would have thought the younger generation would be faster than the elder generation as with the immersion of online poker and the time restriction related to it. Guessing I'm wrong but maybe the higher standard online games have a softer/no time restrictions but I don't know, I've never done them myself.
So is the pot the limit? Or is there like some predetermined limit to every bet. Sorry if this was explained in the video :)
No, generally it is 3 or 4 raises over the high end of the limit stakes. E.g. in a 3/6 limit game, the max total bet would be $24 a street.
Ah that makes sense, thank you :P
This was not explained well. If it's 3/6 then pre-flop and on the flop the bet and raises are by $3. So calling is $3, raise to $6, raise that to $9 and so on with $12 or $15 being a typical max for each street (although some places through out the max when it's heads up). On the turn and river it would be $6 to open then raise to $12, raise to $18 and so on.
I meant 'throw out'
so i won 300 on a 3/6 limit game is that a good amount for one days worth of pay can someone let me know
Yes u made 300 in a day and no manual labor what's wrong with that
I tried playing this style my first time out and got hosed ! The table unfortunately was super aggressive . I never been on such an insane table , these guys were whacked . It was just down right crazy and didn't help most were wasted ,lol . I only won one hand that was chopped by 2 other ppl besides me . So this experience sucked to say the least .
