Good content but you’re selling it for $500.00 USD dollars. The common player who wants to learn basic strategy to compete in low stakes should not have to pay this much to play a basic, straight forward way. Way too expensive.
I love this video so much... nothing turns me off more than when poker coaches start talking about solvers and complicated math, when really it boils down to "does my opponent's line make sense, and do I believe them?"
for high paired boards, are you sure about a range bet? What about when the non-pairing card is really high (eg AAK)? Surely our underpairs like queens or jacks, which are marginal made hands, don't really have much incentive to bet? They don't need to be worried about protection, given that overcards are already on the board, and they will defo get some value, but not a whole lot?

*_FIRST AND FOREMOST,_* poker must be _fun._ Even if I decide to make a living out of poker or even to supplement my income, I first must love playing the game; and let's remember - it _is_ a game. When you take the fun out of poker, you take the joy and the love for the game and you flush it down the theoretical toilet. When Moneymaker created the poker explosion in '03, it was the idea that even some rando from anywheresville could get in there and compete. It hits on an _emotional level._ When you convince a whole new generation that you have to be Alan freaking Turing to play, I think it turns people off to the game. 99.9% are not pros and therefore have very little need for the hairsplitting that is GTO. I wanna be crushing free drinks and BS'ing with the guys, not sitting there staring at charts all day. 🍻♠🍺♥🍻♦🍺♣🍺
yes , when learning, the only thing that matters is the tone and the energy of the teacher. Don't mind the informational value of the concepts. no no, that is not what's about. EXCITEMENT and quick dopamine that is where the value lies
I think he more than makes up for it with the visual comedy he added in the background. And I still want this priceless information that goes against the grain, regardless of his tone. I’d read it in a book with no pictures if I had to. 😄
When I watch videos and they're like "let's say they have a 33% range or maybe a 37% range" I zone out. How are we supposed to quickly figure out what their % range is?
In the QQ6 OTT our kicker did play indeed AKQQ7. Minor point though. Also you noted him slowplaying Q66 even if was QQ6 and he only had a medium strength hand. Even on the river his three-pair wasn't super strong (def worth a block though, if not a bigger bet)

I guilty of this too but first thing is learn to read a board because missed half of boards here. If you are not focused enough to read a board then how you gonna extrapolate complex action or hand read after.
I can't believe I don't even have to pay to watch all these clips. Thank you so much, I hope and think this podcast will drive more customers to your website.
Wouldnt all the value combos like AK AJ and KK and TT all jam preflop Blind vs blind even with heavy icm pressure? And on the river I think most flush’s would just call the bet on a board that wet so isn’t BB just basically filled with bluffs and capped AT for value? Which I’m guessing is why the call was made
youre vastly underestimating how much icm pressure is on the bb in this spot being 2nd in chips having sb the only person that can bust him. his risk premium is so high getting the money in pre is a total disaster so hes not 3 betting AT or AJ here his 3 bet range is probably AK/QQ+ . (Maybe AQ but idk)
@@teeraw4575 if that was true tho then why would villain call with just the straight if the line is extremely underbluffed if icm pressure was that much wouldnt you want to 3 bet with AJ and maybe fold to a jam if ranges are really that tight then the A would block so much of the jamming range which is why I think the jam was called with just a straight
IM still trying to master the skill of winning allin on the flop with the flopped nuts vs .5% equity. Ive lost 4 of these in the past 3 months along with 15+ losses vs flopped str8s or flushes vs one pair. Honestly i dont know how anyone wins on GG mtts. No one ever folds any pair preflop for any amount
That's just poker, you'll get used to it if you keep playing. Try to remember tho, our minds are wired in a way where we remember negative/unexpected events much easier and more strongly than we do expected/good events.
Basically the point when this hand goes off rails is already on the flop. In position player with heavy ICM pressure should not have raising range on AAK. After flop it is a matter of who overplays their hand more. You see these kind of hands all the time in 5$ MTT´s. One poker youtuber (Bluffthespot?) did funny video series where HS reg would analyze hand histories without knowing was it played on NL10 or NL10000. Those were super funny videos.
Exactly my first thought as soon as i saw this hand. Raising is so suicidal with ur much weaker range there, regardless whether is ICM or not. But, if you are going to construct a raising range then do it with your best hands that can stack off like AJ. Not A8o, that makes u super susceptible to flop 3bs and barrel offs since you can’t really stack off with A8
After that major mistake OTF however, both of them played it amazingly well, if not perfectly. QJ with a heart would’ve been perfect but that’s nitpicking.
Elite level hand maybe, but if you consider ICM it was terrible. The guy with A8 was 2nd in chips and covered, so he should have played more cautiously. If you're 2nd in chips at the final table and the jump in money from 6th to 5th is over 100,000 dollars, and from 6th to 2nd is 650k, you have no incentive playing tricky against the chip leader.
Hello Uri! Can you explain better how you idea of "how bigg pot my hand wants" work? Obviously we cant just bet small with weak hands and bigg with strong hands. Can you deep dive more?
What I can take away is, in an ideal world, what size pot does my hand want to have a good chance to show down and win. If you see a bet bigger, then the answer is, my opponent is repping value better than my hand, therefore I’m now bluff catching. Conversely, if you are betting bigger than the pot your hand wants to play, you are now bluffing. As in, you are choosing to represent a hand better than what you have. You can bet any size with any hand, it just changes whether that bet is for value or is it a bluff.
Check out the earlier videos in this series from Uri to learn more about that. Here's the playlist with all of them ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-jbL4eF315fQ.html It's one of the fundamental principles taught in his new Poker Blueprint course.
Amazing hand. Great analysis. I bet your hand reading is incredible. However, your name reading is profoundly bad…. Joe Ann. A Hispanic guy named Juan… and your guess is Joe Ann. lol wow. Honest mistake and made my day. Wow. That’s just great.

I tell you with little luck and good playing you come in Money not everytime but often but 4 FT or win it depeds very often on 1 or 2 Hands happens again to me yesterday gets 22 from 1348 only Tourney by 4 where i get ITM and when i play 1 2 Cards other or calls i gets FT 4 sure and by FT i win 4 1 Months ca. the Tourney as short stack by begin of FT with luck off course and opponents mistake who dont cares about Position or Icm. Money i gets but FT or win depends on 1 2 cards max and luck from variance also without that you cant win Tourney you can be so good as hell !!
I don't understand Dan's bet size on the river. What better hands is he folding out? What worse hands are calling? In this line surely DP has a ton of aces which all call. Then a load of not aces which fold. If he goes overbet wouldn't more of DPs aces be indifferent and as thats the largest part of hia range, put him into a blender? Just don't understand why this isn't a very small bet (v DP you probably don't want to do this because he will c/r appropriately) or a huge bet. Given how DP plays a check here would be best.
