Have you ever faced a poker pro before? Also, here are the 9 poker strategies that will skyrocket your winnings: ua-cam.com/video/nY5aJmpM4mU/v-deo.html
#5.... is golden for me, I always see/believe certain guys are winning consistently (everytime).... and I have weeks like this (#5). And I thought I just was making big mistakes.... tht helps alot, I kno im not gonna win everytime, this reinforces tht I don't have as many holes in my game tht I thought!! THK YOU. On top of this year I kept data on ALL my sessions n my graph is 📈
Randal Grichuk did a radio spot ad for sportsnet when he played outfield and hit dingers for the BlueJays ... at the end of the ad he calls himself just to hear his voice greeting: "Hello. This is Randal. No one cares. Work harder" Those last two sentences offer excellent advice. So do your videos. Thank you.
Hello Nathan... you mention thin value a lot and emphasize its importance as a key part of a successful poker player's game is there any scope for a BlackRain79 video on the subject in the near future? Also, you mentioned red-line rate in a recent video. Can we get a short episode on what that looks like for an effective player? Thanks, Edward in Alberta
Dear Nathan! What do you suggest in the following situation? You face a LAG who (re)raises and you are in position, eg otb. But there are some other players around who love to call more often (than you suggest at least). You have eg QQ or AQ or a similar premium hand. Generally I would like to reraise in order to isolate, but thats a kind of fighting "fire with fire" with the mentioned risk... On the other hand you face a multiway pot which decreases the worth of my hand...🤷🏼♂️🤔 Thx for your answer and your content in general!👍🏼🙂
I'm not Nathan but I will offer you my best advice. With a premium hand you should be happy to play an inflated, isolated pot. Especially against a loose player. The looser they are the less reason you have to fear Aces or Kings, in the case you have queens or AK(Or AQ for that matter). Fighting fire with fire only applies to postflop in the sense Nathan uses it. The more you can get in preflop the better. Simply call anything postflop and bet 50% pot if checked to you, and if check-raised then call. The stack to pot ratio is low in a 4 bet pot.(First raise, they 3 bet, you 4 bet) They simply do not have the implied odds to play a speculative hand for profit. Call them down if they bet into you, and value bet if they check to you. Good luck my friend!
Not gonna lie, one of my favourite things to do on your videos is check out the hater comments and I wrote that before I got to the end of the video lol 🤣 My buddy/coach plays very similar to you and has made a lot of money in poker and I have found that studying here in between sessions with him has completely changed my game. Gonna keep going up. Putting all this in my toolbox! Working on #7 & #4 especially since maniacs are easier to exploit than passive players but they're only a fraction of weak players. Started getting a hang of the HUD stats too. Not stacking the fish yet but taking a bite of their stacks. #1 love it. All good stuff. Go Leafs 🍁
I'm relatively new to these videos and blown away by how many haters there are. This guy makes constant videos of solid advice for free. Why would you shit on that?
@@tuxedobowie887 Tbh I don't think all of them actually realize how good this advice is. I mean I don't want to compare BR79 to my coach guy too much it's obviously two very different situations... But seeing them both play and listening to them both, he's basically giving you the roadmap to be successful in this game it's just a matter of getting the strategy into your game effectively. Still new but have come a long way lol
What about the poker rooms that offer high hands every half hour every hour offer bad beats. These people that you play against will stay in to the end. Just to try to get a high hand or even a bad beat. How do you address that?
I have a question for all players playing in smaller casinos with only 1-3 tables a time. Im rarely visiting these casino. Im more online focus because of my geographical location. When I visited these casinos I saw many people every time I was there. Weekdays and weekend. So I assume they are regulars visiting the casino 2-4 times a week. Are they pros or just gamblers. I talked to one and he spoked about the game more like a amateur but he was there every time I played. One other looked more like a pro and he didn't said anything in 4 hours.
Had to laugh at the graphic of a Capitals player hoisting the Stanley Cup. I was at the WSOP during most of that 2018 Cup final and flew home the day after it ended. On the flight to Philly, I had never seen so many Caps jerseys in my life.
blackrain im ur biggest fan!! can you tell me how bad these leaks have been affecting my game ? see, ive been c betting 100 percent of missed flops if i was pre raiser unless the board is wetter than fish. ex: ak miss? i never check! ive been leaking bad. ive been raising blinds with lower than premiums , ive not been 3 betting tt jj if im in late pos and i have been folding mid pairs late to one raise if theres was only 1 player
I don't get #5 and #1. How do I know whether a pro does not care how much he wins/loses? 😢 How do I know what a pro puts as his screen saver?? Or if they visualize their success?? 😢
#5 has nothing to do with recognizing you're playing with a pro. Unless you're talking about observing them and how they react to big winning days and big losing days.
At what point do you question maths on the sites ? I can tell you I have chased exactely 40 flushdraws on flop since yesterday and ONE ( 1) came through. Is this statistically possible? Some of them was even with straighdraw so I should have a good shot at the pot but instead im at 0 dollars.
these are correlative things that don't necessarily translate into whether someone is a PROFESSIONAL (by pure definition) or not. Visualizing success is sort of a cop out to just working hard, almost as if it's implied that we deserve to win just because we put it on a "vision board" or we think we are special and the reality is that very few people are truly special at playing poker. you could play devil's advocate for the three streets of value example, and say it's fishy to go for thin value vs. players you underestimate, which is why I would have "they never underestimate people" on this list, before I'd have "three street one pair, vs fish". I think the reverse implied odds of underestimating someone's ability puts that single bit of advice upside down, provided that "never underestimate people" is not on the list. two things i think you did hit on that are indeed very important is that people don't flat enough vs. aggressive players, and (most importantly) never let the highs get too high, nor the lows too low. overall, pretty solid list overall.

What stakes does your elite poker university cover?
Hey, is ultimately the best way to play, is to play tight?
Best for beginners definitely!
Maybe I am crazy but your first example only hand that might call the river is an Ax and you block that hand. So more likely he reraises than calls.

Most fish I know are scared to call because they assume they're going to lose lol. But they're brand new to it
Good point!

Too high :/

Doesn’t throw fits at the table when they lose

What site is he using for online poker?

I made another video on that.

Exact same comment as above. How does this guy not get tired of saying the exact same comment over and over again?
@@BlackRain79Poker Not sure why this ended up here twice and I do get tired tbf 💁♂️
Bet the flop, the turn comes a brick, but the fish has 5 3 and you give him more money, because online poker is made for fish
Well said!
Sign one, they've never seen this channel.
But you have haha. Thanks for letting the algorithm know about it too :)
