How to Play GOOD Poker when You're Running BAD 

This style video is just incredible for someone like me who has only been playing poker for about a year, does a ton of poker studying but still struggles with the basics. Just seeing which spots are trivial for you helps highlight the common spots I need to study more! The database driven grade E tips you throw in are a nice plus too 😂

You're the first coach to encourage me to consider battling through my mental blocks instead of walking away from the table. I like it. I gotta master myself someday right? Haha

Pete, it would be nice if you could share your results so far in the 100NL challange.

A lot of Peet today. Just rewached one of your grade 3 and one of your grade E videos. Love them!!!

Pete i thought your trying to max exploit for the biggest winrate possible. Surely that AQ v AK hand where you get cold 4 bet from a nit is a massively losing call on the river. I would go as far as saying you win there 0% of the time vs a 15% vpip nitreg bet bet shoving. Pot odds are cool and all but they dont matter if youre never good. Hed have to be tripling off Kings / queens / jacks which people just arent doing especially that type of player or a random suited broadway bluff that hes probably never cold 4 bet in his life. Even him having AQ is quite doubtful they usually just check back the river in this spot since a good % of people just flat AK to cold 4 bets.

Love the content! Pretty interesting live play with your indepth thoughts! Looking forward to the True EV course 🔥

The chips riffle thing 17:09 is not an Emote Button. Its just when using scrollwheel for betsizing. Its enabled by default. He might be mouse wheeling Tik Tok on the side and that shit will still riffle.

Great work Pete! Can't wait to for the Carrot Crew Launch!

Absolutely awesome content keep it coming!

thanks for uploading also the not so good sessions

Disappointed we have to wait longer for the subscription service, but happy because I know the value will be immense. I respect and trust Pete to put out the best product possible and that’s worth waiting for.

About the 84s at 08:00 - your explaination makes total sense. What do you think about the general kind of blueprint strategie of probing turn for B25 and bombing river for small overbet, when the opponent checked back flop as aggr? (In context of playing microstakes) I just play NL2 rn but even I realize that checkback ranges of people with more than 15Vpip are super weak.

We can always blame the rng being rigged

Hey carrot man. Recently You said it couldn’t be done and that “if you don’t already know you never will”. But I did it. I found out why pocket 10’s are called potatoes. I grinded over 100 hours of your podcasts and videos in the last month. The secret is revealed in one of your training sessions with Mark from over 1 year ago. Ha

If this is a bad session then you run extremely well

Does your coaching site offer 9max hold'em cash game content?

Does the subscription includes all the grades?

The riffle in chips might be used to give strong impression , to have a checkdown with mediocre range.

Appreciated

nice one

I'm loving your videos, just binge watched several. I'm also a big fan of The Grinder's Manual. I would subscribe to your website, but as a microstakes player, it does not make economic sense. Maybe I'll buy your Cash Injection course at some point.

Good video

Is that Jarretman in the avatar ?

I always thought the riffle was weakness. Feels like its overbluffed. Like they want me to think that they are thinking about the size of their value bet. The classic acting strong when weak

are there different methods to distribute cards? or its golden standard among big sites, like truly random simple mechanism? i´ve been playing on a new small site back home and its wild. it seems sometimes like its tweaked for big setups very often, haven´t seen so many flopped flushes, boats etc anywhere. and all the time.

The AQ hand at 4:00. Question: I get the calls on flop and turn, and obviously it's not good to bet given the preflop action. * The river call, though, I don't get. The opponent's just given you (I would make a strong distinction between that and "you have", since the opponent has dictated the bet sizing throughout) odds whereby you can call 55BB to win 204BB. Preflop action strongly suggests that neither of you have two pair, since it would have to be A8 or worse. I guess a set of 8s is possible, but a lower set is also very unlikely. You have to be right about 1/4 of the time in order to make this call. * Isn't this a massively underbluffed spot? Unless the opponent's a total fish who's decided he's going to three-barrel bluff you no matter what happens, he's very unlikely to be betting the river with worse. Your hand is very face-up at this point. A set of 8s is possible, but your most likely holding is AK, AQs or AJs. This means that your hand is now a bluff-catcher since every reasonable value hand is beating you. It also turns every one of your opponent's holdings except a set or high ace into a bluff - so if your opponent has KK, it's effectively a bluff. Same with QQ, JJ, etc. * I just can't see any competent opponent betting you with worse on the river more than 25% of the time. You've shown no inclination whatsoever to fold on any previous street, and at this point a bluff is all you can beat. The opponent might also have AQ (I'd question if even this is betting the river) but other than that chop, what are you reasonably beating here?

your logic sound very good but sorry i have trust issues i want to see your winning chart or BB/100 in 50-100NL before i consider buy a course its good for you business i think

Cold 4b and triple off on A high board vs a nit, I think we just fold AQ. This nit isn’t value shoving AQ here.

If you break down being a longterm solid winning poker playing to its most basic level its quite simple. Learn to maximize your value when youre winning while minimizing your losses when youre losing .

Bring back the orange background

15 vpip on 6max is extremely tight and yeah it wasnt cooler rather stubborness

love it, but i thought those spots werent difficult or soul crushing at all. lose full stack AAvsAQ four times in a row and give me a strategy for staying level headed for that situation lol (i take a break ..)

nice! 27:55 ist this a 4bet bluff spot with 78dd?

Hey pete, Im going through a 35buy in downswing in nl200 with a winrate of 8bb/100 (on app games). Your video came at the best possible time for me. Much love from France !

it's about time to show your 100k hands run on rush and cash)

nick might beg to differ about this run bad :D

I've found that when they riffle their chips they are often weak

Es espectacular el contenido de esté video 👏👏

So why not bet smaller if you think a spot is overfolded!!???????

That’s a very good video Pete. Also you are very handsome. You have a nice big carrot

4.99 per month? Pretty good value

Good vid but come on you hardly went through a variance storm there Pete 😅

What does your haters have in their heads? 😂 I think they don't like carrots at all 😂😂😂 the king of baboons is not claiming to be the best cash gamer in the world, but imho he is very good at teaching and thats another story 🎉🎉🎉 i just play for fun nowadays, i'm old, having a family, job, still studying 😂 i put my 2 cents, this is a genuine content for almost all the viewers, witch i think are playing under nl200...otherwise they don't really needs those contents 😮 so in Italy we pretty much appreciate the carrots 😂 and also the peoples who are good at teaching ❤ and Pete is so fucking good that if you don't see it you are blind!!! I was playing nl50 at max 15 years ago, stopped 4 years ago at nl 25 after a big cash out...camed back with 20 euros at nl2...pretty humble and climbing it back from the sewers😂😂😂 i can see the improvments that i got from those videos...so big thanks boss ❤❤❤ now im at nl5, playing just a couple of hours each month and i am happy!!! Still love the game and hate the haters❤🎉

no longer launching on march 1st? you dont even deserve to coach the game

imagine "running bad" as a losing player.
