This is "THE BEST" Comprehensive video for a live low stakes (1/2,1/3) live game I've seen in a year n half!! This is how most lower stakes pots go live! THIS WAS OUTSTANDING 💪🏾🔥💯
As a Texas local who is really trying to study and learn the game, it’s been really frustrating trying to apply what I’ve learned and it getting shoved in my face by players who aren’t GTO. This course is exactly what I’ve been waiting for and the free content is SOO incredibly helpful and appreciated.
In Texas you have to remember, these people are playing all sorts of random stuff hoping to get lucky. One of my biggest wins in Texas was shoving AQs as a bluff and getting snap called only to show down A high and take down a 1k pot.
Texas poker is definitely interesting. The standard open raise size in my game is almost exclusively 7-8 BB; at 1-2 $15, at 1-3 $20-25. And almost always at least 5-6 callers and almost the same number even with a 3B.
This is literally for playing any small casino 1/2 game. Thanks for outlining the strategy, it really validated my desire to be better but unable to find better games - so I have to master what I call donkey poker instead.
@@mbradycf Just to add context to my request I notice that at lower stakes a lot of the better players who are clearly aware of things like range advantage check raise the BB on favorable boards very liberally. Probably above the frequencies that you guys suggest in your episode on check raising. As a result I know I'm facing a disproportionate amount of bluffs and would just like some tools on knowing when to continue so I don't overfold. I think if I were to only call with already made hands or things like open ended straight draws or one out flush draws I would likely be over-folding. Although I could be wrong. Cheers.
Limping in EP to set mine is not profitable despite the more advantageous conditions. You just can't get enough value when you do hit that set when you are OOP.
if your opponents are tight or just decent at poker, you're absolutely right. Good players will even be able to recognize that you have a set-heavy range when you start piling in money on a flop like 6-4-2 (I said that in the episode). But in a game where most players are splashy/sticky postflop, limping can definitely be pulled off profitably especially (assuming rake isn't too high). Uri Peleg is a proponent of this strategy -- which is the main thing that made me want to bring it up in this episode. Anecdotally, I was just playing a bunch of $1/$2 at The Lodge with my wife and in most of those games (which have no rake), it would have been super silly to not play hands like 44 UTG. Players were passive preflop and used poor sizes when they did raise. And postflop, there were numerous hands in which 100+ bb found their way into the pot despite all players holding marginal hands. Gotta try to get in there for $2 with 44 when things like that are happening imo.
Ya gotta say I side with Mike here. In this type of game you can bloat pots very comfortably by sizing up accordingly. Your opponents won’t notice if you suddenly bet 120% pot instead of 70% pot on K84. They aren’t folding top pairs etc. Have faith in your own postflop abilities ❤
I need you guys to expand your minds and realize if you play 7/5 suited you are NOT looking to hit a flush and if you do you are check calling most of time . Secondly the community cards determine what is trash and what isn’t … Keep the game simple call with proper odds with playable hands in position and see the flop Too many straight broads come to tell people they shouldn’t play 7/5 suited multi way esp with proper odds .. Be cautious no matter what unless you have the nuts
Peetty dunny that they are advertising the Endboss System.... where you will be told never to do the thinga described in this video. Also, food job guys.
Upswing should timestamp when Mike Brady is talking so people know how far to skip ahead. I keep skipping ahead and landing on more Mike Brady providing useless fluff

Same here

You could literally make an entire career from only Value Betting and never bluffing in those games

Level up is really good
Really enjoy and appreciate this poker teaching duo. Keep em coming please.
best poker series on YT, thanks guys
I got the wrong end of the flush over flush 2 sessions in a row....time to adjust. Thanks!
Very informative! Thank you Mike and Gary!
Finally! Lower limits from $1-2 to $2/5 are largely played multi-way, at least when seeing the flop.
Seeing videos that are almost exclusively heads up and largely are one player vs a blind or 3 and 4 bet preflop hands heads up.
Really enjoying the videos guys.
Thanks yall
Good video. More of these please!

Love the show. Just listened on Spotify. Was wondering if you could do an episode on facing check raises as the in position player post-flop.
Glad you're enjoying it! I've noted down your suggestion, it's a good one.
@@mbradycf Thanks Mike! As long as you guys keep making these, I'll keep listening. All the best.

Kindly make one where we face limp and also one how to contract ranges vs iso in srp and also in 3 bet spot.
how does stack sizes impact calling ranges
I love and respect anyone who says, "I think this, but FYI, there are people who think this other thing"
Not hitting the like button so my low stakes opponents don’t see this in their algorithm 😂

it's very tough to play multiway pots in a heads-up cash game
Food job indeed. And the thinga about the Enboss System is that it’s not free. So it’s pretty dunny that they’re giving away better info at no cost.
