Small suited connector are definitely worth taking a flop with. Be careful, if you don't improve you must either be ready to let it go on the turn or to pile money into the pot as a bluff. It can be costly to bluff with when you miss the hitting the board.
It's Nathan mate. He'll probably put out a video in a few months lecturing us to do the opposite of what he's suggesting here. I like Nathan, but comedy is part of the reason I come here now, lol.
Having little experience and none in person, it's nice to see that I've been playing most of these hands on this list, pocket 7s though I definitely overlooked
Another two great hands to play with are J10s and KQs because they can make the 4th and 2nd nut flush respectively and most people will be too sticky to fold TPTK or two pair when you make a disguised straight.
I recall Tony G destroying a guy he beat with KJ vs his A low kicker off suit. he abused him and sent him off on his bike with KJ Not a big fan of KJ off
Best advice yet! I love this because, yes, these hands are overlooked simply because plasters don’t understand the potential. Great job explaining the winning versatility and odds of each. Thanks!!
That's probably true but everything he saying is true. Especially on the 6 and 7 suited. I'd rather have a 6 and 7 and if your a good player and ya preflop raise they will never tell ya have a 6 and ya pre floped raised 3x the bb
I guess it varies too. Who are you playing against? Is it big or small pots, are you at the casino or just with friends? You need to read the room and make an educated % bet based on past hands, player strengths, ranges, weakness, etc
Give it a few months or a year. Nathan will look over his stats and see he loses more often than he wins with these. Then he'll make a video saying only fishy players or noobs play them.
A lot of these hands have reverse implied odds. I wouldn't be flat calling these like 67s, 9Ts, T8s. (yes to pocket pairs, or most suited broadways) 3b or fold to get it HU these hands play terribly multi way. Even if you make your hand, would you feel comfortable going all in deep stack on a 7 high flush.
Hey man, I wish I could see you on some livestreams. I’m new to playing poker seriously and I follow all your strategies but not getting the results I wanted. I know it’s something wrong that I’m doing but can’t figure out what.
Nathan I also have seen another video not to play these I know it depends on the situation but at 2/5 casino game standard would you err towards playing these or not playing these??? I appreciate your response and advice
Hey, Man! Thank You for the outstanding and most helpful work and content! Good health to You!!!! One thing that I guess most people never think of is getting out of tilt... As this condition limits the focus of the majority of your thinking abilities. It would be awesome if You could give some anti-tilt and tilt-recovery advice! Have a good day! Every day!
if you watched nathan's video on bad players it's very simple: keep your emotions out of it. you're not 12 years old anymore and sometimes things don't go your way. if you get upset when KK cracks you bullets then this game isn't for you. also, use a bankroll that you just don't care about. you have to be able to make the right play long term without being concerned for short term variance
2:03 - are we taking into account any cards that have been folded by opponents? Cuz you said 2D in hand and 2 on flop is 7D left (11-4=7), yet how do we know nobody has already folded a diamond? I get it for statistics just saying bro got good stats otherwise, also my fav hand to call with that 3B also works with too is 89S. Scary when peeps got the overStr8, yet when suited idk seems to work better haha
okay i want to start off by saying i absolutely love your videos. and have even considered taking one of your courses. But I can remember you making a video about hands not to "over value". and a lot of the hands seem to be the same...
A5s is a horrible hand to 3 bet light. The vast majority of the time you will be up against a better A (AT+), KK, QQ, JJ etc and you will not make 2 pair, a flush or straight. I have tried 3 betting A5s per BlackRain's advice, villain nearly always shoves, and I'm stacked. Oh, sheesh, I noticed he just said he 4 bets this hand as well. OMG, follow it if you want to lose $$ consistently against tight players.
Agreed. You generally wind up against big hands , hands that won’t fold like JJ , or in precarious spots when called at low and mid stakes. Sure they this at higher stakes I guess but no need to get cute with A5s , people give you a thin just find with AA, KK, QQ, AK etc so why would they fold to your A5?
Great question. It’s more profitable to raise over the limpers, according to my database. I would base my decision on whether you can isolate one of the limpers with position, because chances are that these 6 hands (or similar) aren’t smashing the typical microstakes limping ranges. Would be nice to get Nathan’s input on this one.
Only limp if on BTN/BB facing limpers (as on btn you have absolute final position) If anywhere else in field facing limpers, fold or raise to either isolate and play heads up or close to it, where you can take the pot on a favourable flop / run out with a cbet.
The odds that a flop comes out 663 well holding 67 or 885 well holding 10/8 is literally 1 in 74... And so on for making any trips on the flop. In some situations I'll fold it.
I would not say never fold . But yes those are all great starting hands that you would like to play deep in tournaments unless you have all ins in front of you
I love 67s. I will play it as a 3b most of the time at most tables. I hate 98s in 3b pots. You are soooo dominated by Al that I don’t even want the straight lol
Excellent 👌 sir. we are made in HIS image A good prayer: I'm a sinner JESUS please forgive me for all my sins I know you shed your Blood for me on the cross at Calvary.

dude straight up contradicts himself baaaad! It might be true what he is saying now! But on these exact hands exactly these hands hr said the opposite! Easy to find look it up its crazy af ha ha
Do you play these 6 hands? Also, here is my ultimate advanced guide to 3-betting strategy: ua-cam.com/video/mn57kx-8hbI/v-deo.html
KJ ? Really - you literally said not to play it before . King jack lose my stack… 1/2 this seems to be recipe to get on the wrong side of a “cooler”
I went all in with 73 off. I got quads and my kicker played in Nashua NH.
Won the high hand too $500.
Small suited connector are definitely worth taking a flop with. Be careful, if you don't improve you must either be ready to let it go on the turn or to pile money into the pot as a bluff. It can be costly to bluff with when you miss the hitting the board.
Excellent point. I think the key is just that- knowing when to let go
Your explanations and examples are easy to understand, the fans appreciate you Black Rain
I could swear I saw another video from this guy where he said that KJ is an overvalued hand l and here he’s saying to play it strong?!?!
It's Nathan mate. He'll probably put out a video in a few months lecturing us to do the opposite of what he's suggesting here. I like Nathan, but comedy is part of the reason I come here now, lol.
You are correct, I watched it yesterday.
That vid was when oop and you get 3 bet/reraised. In that situation, odds are you are beat. In this situation, you're not facing a reraise.
Videos are so contradictory. Sometimes you say never fold and other videos say to fold the exact same hand.
Having little experience and none in person, it's nice to see that I've been playing most of these hands on this list, pocket 7s though I definitely overlooked
I already know most of this stuff but i still love to remind it myself by watching your videos
Why 77 specifically? Why not 66 or 88?
Another two great hands to play with are J10s and KQs because they can make the 4th and 2nd nut flush respectively and most people will be too sticky to fold TPTK or two pair when you make a disguised straight.
Thanks for watching my poker videos, glad they help!
I recall Tony G destroying a guy he beat with KJ vs his A low kicker off suit.
he abused him and sent him off on his bike with KJ
Not a big fan of KJ off
KJ is objectively a good hand. It's just tricky to play because you never have top pair, top kicker.
I've seen Tony G consistently folding KJ. I'm pretty certain he hates that hand (with good reason).
Best advice yet! I love this because, yes, these hands are overlooked simply because plasters don’t understand the potential. Great job explaining the winning versatility and odds of each. Thanks!!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for watching my poker videos, glad they help!
You realize you have made videos saying NOT to play these very hands rite?
That's probably true but everything he saying is true. Especially on the 6 and 7 suited. I'd rather have a 6 and 7 and if your a good player and ya preflop raise they will never tell ya have a 6 and ya pre floped raised 3x the bb

@The 4th Dimension I 10000% agree that every situation is different and sweeping generalizations about anything is a mistake. I added the last part.
Two nights ago I flopped a str8 with suited 9/10. Another player turned trip As as he had pocket AA. He went all in, I made a nice pot!
Give it a few months or a year. Nathan will look over his stats and see he loses more often than he wins with these. Then he'll make a video saying only fishy players or noobs play them.

Brother bear winning poker is not multi-way. Almost every hand you play should be heads up, in position with you leading period
@@freddyfargo9409 you don't have to type the word "period" you can always use a "." 😁
Absolutely love myself a T9s. Such a pretty hand. However, almost never hit 🤣
Hey man, I wish I could see you on some livestreams. I’m new to playing poker seriously and I follow all your strategies but not getting the results I wanted. I know it’s something wrong that I’m doing but can’t figure out what.
I play ace/anything suited. Won a tournament last weekend with A/3 spades. villain had K/Q spades.
Nathan I also have seen another video not to play these I know it depends on the situation but at 2/5 casino game standard would you err towards playing these or not playing these??? I appreciate your response and advice
Your pictures indicate a 6-handed table. Does this apply to 9-handed as well?
these have been on the edge of my range, will consider, thanks !

He does.
Take a break, eat some food.
Glad this one helped you Poletov!
Found this more interesting as now more experienced than my 1st few reads of your PCS ! Thx sir!
He has previously said kj is a problem hand. I usually like his content, but this video was mostly nonsense.
Sometimes dominated by Ax suited and died!
2:03 - are we taking into account any cards that have been folded by opponents? Cuz you said 2D in hand and 2 on flop is 7D left (11-4=7), yet how do we know nobody has already folded a diamond?

You courses is structured how? Meaning they are videos that we have to watch or live that we have to be available?
What about J-10/J-10 suited???
Just played 67h and won with trip sevens. Never would have played that before watching. Thanks!!
Hey. I have short question. When i will buy poker manager 4. Than i have that program for ever ? Or its only 1 year payment ?
Thanks for all the tips helps a lot.
Happy to help!
okay i want to start off by saying i absolutely love your videos. and have even considered taking one of your courses. But I can remember you making a video about hands not to "over value". and a lot of the hands seem to be the same...
Preflop is different from post-flop. You DO have to be careful with these hands if you don't make the nuts or near-nuts.
A5s is a horrible hand to 3 bet light. The vast majority of the time you will be up against a better A (AT+), KK, QQ, JJ etc and you will not make 2 pair, a flush or straight. I have tried 3 betting A5s per BlackRain's advice, villain nearly always shoves, and I'm stacked. Oh, sheesh, I noticed he just said he 4 bets this hand as well. OMG, follow it if you want to lose $$ consistently against tight players.
It depends on position because A5s is a great re raise hand from the button or sometimes cutoff depending on the strength of your opponents
If ur in middle position or UTG and they’re raising more than 3x it’s a snap fold
Agreed. You generally wind up against big hands , hands that won’t fold like JJ , or in precarious spots when called at low and mid stakes. Sure they this at higher stakes I guess but no need to get cute with A5s , people give you a thin just find with AA, KK, QQ, AK etc so why would they fold to your A5?
King Jack lose my stack ! Literally have said not to play some of these hands before.
THank you Lou Ferrgino.
I understand to raise first in but what if there are limpers, would you limp behind in late postition or bet preflop?
Great question. It’s more profitable to raise over the limpers, according to my database. I would base my decision on whether you can isolate one of the limpers with position, because chances are that these 6 hands (or similar) aren’t smashing the typical microstakes limping ranges. Would be nice to get Nathan’s input on this one.
@@ElJefe0719 Thanks Adam, i agree 100%. I wanted to hear what others had to say.

I would not say never fold . But yes those are all great starting hands that you would like to play deep in tournaments unless you have all ins in front of you
The main question is what to do with those hands facing a 3bet after your rfi
I agree. I hope this is addressed in another video.
I am sick to my stomach. I folded King Jack last night. Something told me this was a bad fold. Thanks for an excellent video.
Sorry to hear that
I love 67s. I will play it as a 3b most of the time at most tables. I hate 98s in 3b pots. You are soooo dominated by Al that I don’t even want the straight lol
7-6 Suited...The new A-A !!!
Yes ❤
cool but you also say these are overrated and overplayed and bad hands in a diff video. I get it tho...
Instructions unclear : busted within 10mins
Nice hairstyle bro 😂❤
Thanks 😅
i literally just watched your "5 hands to stop playing" and 6-7 suited was on there too lol, what gives?
Where is all your furniture? Did you bet it all in poker or something? 👀
Some of Nathans videos are extremely useful and interesting. This is not one of them. Sorry bro.
All good
