Have you ever seen a poker fish do any of these 9 things? Also, here are my top tips for poker beginners to make $500/day ua-cam.com/video/gZjroGYuNnQ/v-deo.html
Hi poker players, I do not think I agree 100% with rule #9 because it is true that betting close to full pot is the way to go to punish villains from chasing draws/flushes etc, but if the opponent is a fish wouldn’t he or she be unaware of pot odds, draws and all other poker math and betting that amount would not mean anything to them so they would either fold, call with a strong hand or raise you if a set probably. From my experience playing with fish sometimes is best to bet less in order to get some money from them.
The most important thing you forgot to mention is the proper bankroll! 6000 thousand dollars is a proper bankroll for 1& 2 cash game or 30 times the maximum buy in ! Without proper bankroll poker is just game of luck !
Hi, some thoughts: Tip 1: that board is a small bet or check spot. Mostly because villain has many broadway hands that will fold already to a small bet. Tip 2: limping is not free money, you have no mathematical proof for that. Do you have any sims proving your point? it is less bad than you think. Limping becomes more viable the lower the rake gets, the inclusion of antes, and the shorter the stacks get. Tip 3: it just depends on the opponents. If your opponents are very aggresive against 3bets, then your tip will lose money. Tip 4: actually, the exact opposite is true: most of the money made in poker is by bluffing fish. Check some Sims and see how wide the solver defends vs check-raises for example. Fishes are wayyy overfolding in so many spots. Like you said, play aggresive. You example is also weird, because AJ is a natural checkback(also cuz fish underbluff), and all the calls that you mentioned are decent bluffcatchers. The other tips are better. Thanks for the video.
I agree to what you said to Tip 1 - if they have any pair or 109 give them a reason to call and don't chase them away with a big bet... But for what you said about limping... I am pretty sure that in the video if you are in position and have a playable hand raising is more profitable vs limpers than calling...you take the betting lead and you are usually not playing against super strong hands. Also "limping gets more viable the shorter the stacks get"... WHAT? In litteraly every tournament strategy I read you should never limp with small stack sizes.
@NeuroticNOOB for limping you can maybe check some GTOwizard ranges. Old ranges dont account for limping I guess, its a new thing. But for example ~14bb BTN there is no open raising. Just limping and open jamming. Tip one betting small is actually to make high cards indifferent i think, pairs dont fold to most bet sizing i would guess, but i would have to check that in pio to be sure
Any advice on how to play against loose and extremely passive players? I have seen an epidemic of players lately that just limp and check-call all the way to the river with ACES. Then for some reason, they tend to raise the river, even on terrible boards. The first time I saw it the board was 10 8 7 6 5.(I wasn't in that hand). I can't help but keep value-owning myself against these players. You can't exactly sit around waiting for a nut hand to bet though either. You lose too much value.
I was playing online yesterday and a guy flopped a boat. I had nothing. I had position. We checked the flop, then checked the turn, then he bets 1 BB on the river. So I figure, sure, why not call? And he turns over a full house he had all along, like wtf man?
He's talking about PokerTracker4. Personally, I use Winning Poker HUD. It isn't quite as powerful or user friendly friendly as PokerTracker4, but it's easy enough and gives all of the same data in the games. The biggest advantage over PokerTracker4, though, is that it's free 😊 I've only been playing seriously for about a month, and with Nathan and the HUD I've turned massive losses into a break even or slight winning situation. Once I have the bank roll to afford it, I might switch to a better HUD.
12:50 just wrong. the elite of the elite online guys have been playing nl10k and nl20k all day on ACR hu, 3, or 4 handed lately. top tier nl500+ regs will routinely have some action at tables with no fun players. Whenever I'm playing a game at a full table with all for-profit players its with the primary motivation to make sure a fun player does not sit at a table I am not at.
There are about 3 reasons for the big bet: A) The board strongly favors our range, especially against a Fish. B) AK is in most cases far ahead when called. C) Most calling hands call big bets: We want max value from A5,T9/65, and 98/76. JT/J9 will still often peel, even against an 80% bet. - While the rest (broadways , etc) already folds to smaller sizes.
Re the first example: Why should you automatically assume that your opponent has a draw on the flop??? Most of the time, they won’t. So, it makes more sense to bet someone closer to 1/2 pot to ALSO induce calls from weaker non-draw hands. Then determine your turn bet based on what hits the board, as well as the effective stack size at that point.
Aren't points 9 and 4 contradictory? In point 9, you say "play top pair aggressively on a draw heavy board", yet, in point 4, you say "you should be check/calling top pair, top kicker".
you dont want an opponent to chase the draw but you also want to make money in following streets, you cant just force your opponent to fold everytime you suspect him of drawing.
It sounds like the main advice (play only strong hands and bet aggressively if you play) is only good to play with people you're playing the first time and dont plan to play with ever again, otherwise it will take people like 20 deals to figure you out. Yeah, i will totally limp with a pair of Queens, so everyone will see my weakness and "take advantage" of me.
what he is really trying to say is the new players that want to learn and think the game is fun and just killing time be a dick take all their money so they dont play and you guys can all sit in the corner and have coffee with no players....local casino had a few pros come in and now they play by themselves lol good job

bro you would be so easy to trap with these methods
Please could you make a video sharing how strategies change in a tournament, when you don’t know the other players, and a bad beat ends your day
This guy literally makes a video like this once a week and I watched the whole thing every time and give it a thumbs up 👍😎
Thank you sir! I know my videos haven't always been the best lately, but I am back in the studio now, fresh content coming.
are you sure he literally?
You make so much sense in a small amount of time.

Overplaying top pair. I had an opponent limp call all the way to the river with pocket Queens. I was shocked she was new to poker

He mustve experienced multiple bad beats and wanted to guarentee some value for his current hand. Its possible even as a pro @@jeffm5991
I have 22 (pocket duce)
one call with AJo n flop is 5c8d8c n turn is a Kc n jgh river is Kh
5c8d8cKckh
Who will win this hand?
Aj will win. You are playing the board..Aj has 2 pairs with the A kicker

What is the software that shows the VPIP, etc.? I thought many of these programs and not allowed by major online sites.

Poker tracker4. It is allowed by most.
PokerTracker, I have a video in the description on how to set it up.
of course its legal. Do you think Blackrain would have won a single dollar without it?
I’m always surprised how many fish are out there. They are everywhere! Every 8 player table I’m at has 1-2.
Thank you Bro. Good tips! Part 6 is my habbit 😂
Nathan you videos are too good to be free :)
Appreciate the kind words, thanks for watching!
which sites do you play that have been the most profitable?
#1 may the best thing Ive seen you suggest.
Thanks still learning but getting better just a medium fish now lol
We all started as fish, glad my vids are helping you!

love ur content !
#1 I don’t know…T9 is 16 combos out of so many other broadway type hands vs these player you’d rather keep in

It's a different position you're in. One is out of position and the other is in position
you dont want an opponent to chase the draw but you also want to make money in following streets, you cant just force your opponent to fold everytime you suspect him of drawing.
LOL I view it as someone dropped money at the poker table and it's now mine to pick it up 😅
13:00 somebody still plays online poker??
My casino. Cheapest ur seeing a flop for (in a $1/$2) is $25-$30 and the Donks still play their crap hands
Where do I sign up? I'll be the old man coffee if necessary.
It took a whole 1 tip for him to find something that poker pros don't often do
I'm a fish....

Well I saw Tom Dwan having more than 60% Vpip and still winning millions 😂
we know these things yet keep doing them - will view this video every day
