When I realized the "fold-river-vs-nits", it really changed my winrate. The fear of getting bluffed is harmful. Let them bluff you once in a while. It is ok. Let them believe you are a soft spot. It is ok. Build up their confidence to a point where they overbluff vs you and pay you off when you have the nuts and check it to them.
I mean who in poker thinks that calling big bets vs nits with anything less than the nuts or 2nd nuts is profitable ? This is basic poker theory 101 in cash games. When nits bet big, you fold all but a few select hands.
this is one of the best videos i have seen so far, which is exactly my leaks or rather the one leak, call the river with medium strong hands. thank god and thanks to costa that i saw this video. let's wait and see what happens in the next months. thanks :D
O seu ultimo vídeo já havia sido sensacional. A dinâmica de encontrar de qualquer jeito uma maneira de vencer a mão (já que estava proibido de foldar) é algo que nunca tinha visto antes. Abriu minha mente de maneira absurda. E esse vídeo aqui, principalmente a parte sobre os calls no river... sobre como 1 call ruim a cada 1k hands já acaba com seu winrate... Sério, essa p##ra foi pra mim. Salvei os dois vídeos nos favoritos e vou revisitar por muito tempo até martelar esses ensinamentos na minha cabeça. Obrigado, Saulo.
GOOD JOB BRO! TELL ME IF THIS IS TRUE - SINCE EVERYONE IS PLAYING GTO OR ARE BOTS, IF YOU PLAY EXPLOITAITIVELY IT IS NOW THE BEST TIME TO PLAY POKER SINCE YOU CAN PREDICT WHAT OTHERS ARE DOING!!!!!
thanks for your content coach i play mtt at the moment but your videos are helping a lot to understand ranges and aplying a lot of theory on early game and middle game lets go
The other day I sat down at a live PLO table. Within the first couple orbits I had the 2nd nut flush in a 4 way pot. By the river I was very confident no one had the nut flush. But the river paired. This guy ended up value owning himself on the river with a Q high flush. I was floored because it’s like how could you bet in this spot? Someone could easily have a boat because the high card on the board J paired on the river. In the past I would get upset. But at the end of the day if you’re calling in that spot not knowing who your opponent is because you just say down then you can rest assured there will be spots in the future where you will call in a similar spot and lose.
Keep it up Saulo! I think your content is especially helpful because you focus on the process. This is the best advice one can give, and it will grow your channel most, if you can stick to it.
It really is amazing that some of the best poker advice one can take to heart is a bit of simple common sense that everyone can understand, "don't pay people off", and your discussions about the reality of GTO poker is something that I feel most good players do not even recognize, as well. This is quality content.
Hi Saulo! I have found out about you at the russian speaking web site pokeroff. I like your way of making video and your easy and brilliant tips. I used to grind up to nl50 10 years ago! back in 2013. And was never able to beat it in a multiple hundred of thousands hand git depressed and quit :( I've become somebody else though. But now, oh my god, I am coming back to the poker scene. I still love the game and now I see it much more clear and even different. And it is amazing. Thank you for the materials. And you're handsome by the way too.
By the way, I think I had the same calling issue. I think I was doing it because I have not had complete understading of opponent ranges and out of curiousity and out of trust issues. Plus those thoughts in my head... the one you mentioned about "Dude you must call here sometimes and so on". And on the other side in those moments when I had to take action I was not aggressive enough and I was not realizing my EV into money. And I was not pushing opponents to the wall when I had to, I aws also afraid to bet out of fear loosing money and getting called . Horrible. My red line was going down rapidly, from time to time it was horizontal but then always followed by streak
I dont like opening more from sb as a preflop exploit. Its hard to get folds and you’re always out of position in the hand. Dont see it being that much +ev, even if you do get 3 bet less than gto
It's so interesting how the 'you're folding too much' narrative pervades poker, on places like Twitter. Builds this axiom that you can never fold top-top+ on safe rivers. But in my 25NL pool every time I call big river shoves I am muttering 'ffs people just never bluff' 2 seconds later 95% of the time. About to fire a session, might try out your second tip!

"Solvers sometimes develop a limping range in this node, but most professionals ignore that option for simplicity." It's not clear, but pretty sure that's right.
Great video!! Well done!! Amazing that you mentioned Ishter.. One of the best on zoom500 and not only with more than 6bb ev.. .also i heard he was the most unlucky player and still the best!!
Great content as always . I am every single time I watch a new Video suprised by how much conent do you give for free. Couldn't thank you enough for that. How do you categorize the nits ? By w$wsF . Something like
The nit classification for me is more of a VPIP/PFR thing. VPIP below 22% I'll tag as nit. Then weak reg I use WWSF < 47. But surely those 2 groups heavily overlap
Hey Saulo, I follow your videos (both youtube and your older RIO), usually you're clear but right now I don't get it. You actually said previously that people overbluff and to call them more, and now you're saying fold more. Yes I understand that #2 referred to nits in big pots. Still, against which exact player type should we overcall and against which player type should we overfold and how do we diffrentiate between them in R&C? eg, nits are the ones with lower Vpip,simple as that?
Bluffcatching can't be overgeneralized when the context is playing vs regulars. Against fish you can close your eyes and call in almost all lines without much thinking, but against regulars the decision needs to take into account the villain profile, the positions, the actual line taken, the betsizes per street, the board texture. Its a much nuanced analysis. A loose rule you can use that is decent is that regs overbluff in small pots, and underbluff in big pots. And then to go deeper than that you gotta use large amounts of data
@@saulocostapoker a big part of the question was how do I classify a player as a reg or a fish in a game like R&C@gg. Based on their vpip where I expect regs vpip to hover in the 20s, less than that a nit,over that agrofish? Or is there more to it?
The biggest indicator for recreational player is their VPIP-PFR gap, followed by their VPIP. Recs enter the pot by calling way more often than regs, so there is a much bigger gap between their VPIP and PFR compared to regs. Regs average gap is 5%, while recreationals is 15%. So you can spot a rec quickly by taking a look at their VPIP-PFR gap. Then VPIP is also very telling - 30% VPIP or higher over a few dozens of hands quickly increases likelyhood of recreational player
@@saulocostapokerJust want to say that I feel blessed that you’re there man. You inspire me to work hard on my game. 1 year into poker I’m crushing live poker (2/5,over 50$/hour) but I won’t rest until I’m crushing online poker as well. Thanks Saulo.
Are we seeing the same exploit results openraising 3bb from the button but only 2bb openraise from the SB due to position disadvantage? I'm usually only raising 2BB any postion cause it gets the job done and makes my bluffs pre cheaper.
I haven't done models with other betsizes. But I can confidently say people make mistakes against all sizes. The question is which size they make the most mistakes against
Hey Saulo, love your content! This may seem like a random question, but how come you speak perfect English? Did you spend some time in North America during your upbringing?
Hey mate! I get asked that a lot, so not completely random xD The truth is that I learned english by watching all seasons of Friends multiple times 😂 only been to the US once, which was last year WSOP. I guess my brain just likes english 🤷🏽♂️
Fala Vinicius! Cara em portugues tem o Max, ali voce ja ta garantido com bastante conteudo. Da uma olhada no canal dele www.youtube.com/@maxlacerdaviverdepoker
I am a casual/rec in 2NL/5NL and your videos just blow me away with their quality. I don't feel I would enjoy poker as a grind but videos like these give me so many fun strategies to implement when I do play. Love the content as always. I rely a lot on charts for pre-flop right now and I'm hoping to instead take up that fighting spirit and implement some of the exploits you frequently mention.
Learn to play your charts from memory, then move to the exploits. It is ok to be a " losing player " when you first start. The lifecycle of a poker player is usually fish then nit then wherever from there. Saulo is a loose aggressive red line guy ( mostly from what I have seen), that is an extremely difficult play style and it takes quite a while before you will be able to get there. Master your basic preflop ranges before moving to the next step.
@@saulocostapokerit is really cool that you share that you were a losing player at one point. I think that is probably the biggest misconception in poker.
Oh this point is interesting. I'm used to overfold a lot on the river and used to hate myself for that. Cause you never know for sure if you do it right or not against the exact opponent. But probably only because of this 'feature' I'm not a bankrupt😂
Yeah, the uncertainty can be overwhelming...and eventually you might be making a bad fold. But perhaps that's a better alternative than looking people up all the time
@@saulocostapoker you give it for free that's a little bit unfair when some people do the off table work , but the biggest issue is the Meta game poker stable .. poker rooms are filled with yr horses ..every day in pokerstars I play with yr horses some times they are at the same table. Do you believe that is Good for poker ecosystem? What can I do to play a fair game ? I am tired to play vs Brazilians teams / wanna be pros at low stakes .. but the most serious thing is probably that they know at the same time my history data image etc cause they are TEAM. Also the MDA thing it is totally unfair and illegal where did find 2 million hands ? Dou y ask these people when y use their histories ? I can write all day ...
I thought we should press the call button more 😂 Yeah, what was presented as the real story sounds more relatable when playing on massive nitfest sites.
In the real story, I start bluffcatching a lot a few months later xD but thats for another video. In general, you should absolutely press the call button more. Just not against nits in big pots
You make great videos. Can I ask do you think poker coaches should have to show their graphs? If one refuses to show theirs should we take this as a red flag?
I don't think I have a strong opinion about it. I think people should use their best judgment about a particular coach using all the information available, not just graphs - their reputation, the actual content provided, students results, methodology utilized. There are so many variables. I've had coaching in my career with players that had great graphs and superior results to mine, but that weren't really good coaches. That being said, I think at least some personal track record is very welcomed
I like the idea of changing the open size explotatively, but you gotta run some models to see which sizing is best. I don't think min raise from SB is the best sizing, as it allows BB to 3bet less. Anyways, gotta run the numbers and see
Hi Saulo, Thank you for your content which almost always surprised to be free 😅 Small question : what stakes do you currently grind ? And if it is possible to know which rooms ? Last one : do you sell your h2n pop up to work on your database ? I only have mine but would like to work on my vilains as playing regular tables
Hey Nicolas! I don't grind much these days. I play a few hours per week only, mostly to record videos. In those sessions I play the 200 rush and cash games on GG. When I was grinding more regularly I was playing mostly 1knl. And no, I don't sell the popup :/ H2N has a store where they sell popups tho, check it out
Wow Saulo you're incredible. So many videos have similar titles but completely different content. It impresses me how giving, reality based, and articulated you are every video. Every exploit is better then the last but man the last tip is like mentally shoving the brain. I really appreciate what you're doing. Obrigado brother.
I was expecting to see 1-2-3 these are the top 3 exploits, but this video was much more. Your story is very inspiring, and I love your thoughts about gto and exploitative style. Keep up the good work!
Yeah true. Sometimes people think that a tighter preflop player with 20/18 stats as opposed to the more competent 23/19 or 24/20 automatically means nit. When in reality, I’ve seen some of those tighter players with much higher bluffing frequencies than the LAGs. It’s all about paying attention to the right stats.
There is a very high correlation between VPIP and bluffing frequency. So while there could be some tighter players that overbluff, someone making the assumption that the tighter player bluffs less often will be correct more often than not
Funny how times change. Back then they were called weak for being maybe a small winner and now they’d be praised as crushers and probably with higher winrate vs the new crop of mindless players 😂
WTF are you talking about? "Folding improved my win rates. I've been giving people too much credit on bluffs." What? Which is it? Literally said in the same breath.
Beginning is wrong when you raise you make 1.5bb not 1. The .5 bb is dead money. And also when you raise and fold to 3b its -2.5bb since .5 is desd money
That is only correct from the perspective of the action of raising. From the perspective of the hand result, what matters is your stack after the hand minus your stack before the hand. In that case, the small blind belonged to you in the first place, so its not a part of the winnings from the hand

Big time.
Who cares if they bluff you off top pair.
It’s rarely worth it to call.
This makes so much sense. Whats the appropriate stat to look at for this? Is there a call river and won stat?

I don't grind much these days. I play a few hours per week only, mostly to record videos. In those sessions I play the 200 rush and cash games on GG. When I was grinding more regularly I was playing mostly 1knl.
And no, I don't sell the popup :/ H2N has a store where they sell popups tho, check it out
Wow Saulo you're incredible. So many videos have similar titles but completely different content. It impresses me how giving, reality based, and articulated you are every video. Every exploit is better then the last but man the last tip is like mentally shoving the brain. I really appreciate what you're doing. Obrigado brother.
Thank you for the feedback mate, really appreciate it
nice nice!!!
An incredibly valuable video!
Very nice, Saulo! Thanks for the advices!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks Saulo!
I was expecting to see 1-2-3 these are the top 3 exploits, but this video was much more. Your story is very inspiring, and I love your thoughts about gto and exploitative style. Keep up the good work!
Thanks buddy, appreciate that 🙏🏽
Thank you very much mate 🙌🏽
Just like folding into the money
“ it’s just meth “ got me dying hahaha
just gotta be carefull about who you call a nit, i have been called a nit multiple times, while i was one of the most aggro reg at the limit lol.
Yeah true. Sometimes people think that a tighter preflop player with 20/18 stats as opposed to the more competent 23/19 or 24/20 automatically means nit. When in reality, I’ve seen some of those tighter players with much higher bluffing frequencies than the LAGs. It’s all about paying attention to the right stats.
There is a very high correlation between VPIP and bluffing frequency. So while there could be some tighter players that overbluff, someone making the assumption that the tighter player bluffs less often will be correct more often than not
Shout out to Purple Line Aspirants!
Yoooo David, how are you bro?? Crushing poker?
Now imagine that even every weaker reg in pre-solver era actually knew that 😀 and we had to come this long way... to find good old truth 😀
Yeah, that's pretty crazy
Funny how times change. Back then they were called weak for being maybe a small winner and now they’d be praised as crushers and probably with higher winrate vs the new crop of mindless players 😂
WTF are you talking about?
"Folding improved my win rates. I've been giving people too much credit on bluffs."
What? Which is it? Literally said in the same breath.
What an absolute gem my friend 🔥
Outdone yourself with this one. Best poker video on the internet.
Wow thank you for the compliment!
Сейчас бы, катая быстрый кэш с кепкой 3ВВ/100, пользоваться ренжами для рег-столов с кепкой в пять раз меньше! 🤦🏼
Thank you Saulo for all the free content and strategies. My winnings sky rocketed when I finally found the fold button!
Well done Andrew!
Beginning is wrong when you raise you make 1.5bb not 1. The .5 bb is dead money. And also when you raise and fold to 3b its -2.5bb since .5 is desd money
That is only correct from the perspective of the action of raising. From the perspective of the hand result, what matters is your stack after the hand minus your stack before the hand. In that case, the small blind belonged to you in the first place, so its not a part of the winnings from the hand
Your videos are so addictive man! Once I see a new one is online I have to see it and can’t stop until it’s over 😂. Thanks for the great work 🙏🏻
Haha thank you my friend!
