Good but, how come most pre-flop strategies don't address limped pots, which are very common live and low stakes? I usually tighten up my range about 1 level (eg if I would normally open Q9s+, I will change to QTs+) and add 1BB per limper to bet size to discourage players after from coldcalling, but not sure if this is good or not.
Generally the equation is a little less than last raise * 3 + any additional money in the pot. For example: 3 x 26 +10 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 1 = 95 About 88 is the bet size. That shows 2 limpers, 1 raiser to 10, and another raiser to 26 in a 1/2 cash game. I like what you said about tightening up depending on the number of limpers. Makes it easy to remember how much you should be tightening up.
This is why I like female as teachers and coaches. They make sure that their students learn from them. I hope you can repeat the fundamentals of preflop and postflop strategy of Mr. Little in your own way and style. Thanks.
Question. I always hear about the opening ranges when folded to, but are these the same ranges to use when other players limp to us? Are there tables for raising when there are limpers?
Same ranges, just adjust raise size. Something to consider is the table dynamics. If everyone is limping alot, play tight aggressive. Punish the limpers with big raises, better cards and better position. On the other hand, if no one is limping and the table is playing tight. You gotta play looser to punish the tight straightforward play style. Ranges are a just a guide imo.
How aggressive are the players yet to act, to me is the most important, followed by stack depth, followed by rake structure. Allows you to loosen or tighten from standard per-position ranges. For instance at short depth and high rake, KJo is going to be better than 87s.
I seriously don't get this ranges... why Shouldn't I play if i get JT under the gun if it is all up to the cards dealt also seems to me all this charts is just a way of better player knowing what your cards are in every spot if you choose to follow these... who said I cannot or shouldn't win a hand with JT off... if there is AKQ ir two jacks or even one dealt. Pliease help me understand 🤨🙄🤯
@18:50 -- so you're *not* opening JTs in early position? That seems overly tight to me, in all but the most aggressive games. IMO, JTs is an example of an *implied odds* hands, not a reverse implied odds hand. When the board comes 89K and your opponent has KJ or KQ, they're going to lose a lot of money -- you just need to have the discipline not to go crazy with top pair.
This is actually correct if there are no blinds and a high rake. The whole idea of blind bets is to prevent this from being best. Hi rake actually moves things back toward playing only AA, and this is probably true also when they allow a button straddle and you are in the small blind.
One thing I never understood. Why include A4s and A5s but not A2s or A3s? You're just as likely to make a straight or flush with A2s as you are A4s. And if you hit 2p with A2 it isn't much worse off than 2p with A5.
and the double-gutter that A3 can flop is 457; when a 6 comes you'll then be vulnerable to anyone with an 8. when A4 flops 356 and a 7 comes you are not vulnerable to a bare 8.
I’m not sure about A 3 - that’s probably being used to balance other actions, but A 2 cannot flop open-ended unlike ALL of the other wheel aces - that’s why A 2 is so bad
What do you think is the most important factor you should consider when deciding whether to raise preflop? 🤔
The action on the table, if it's a crazy one I'm thigh, if it's a thigh one I'mma expand my range
Position
Your cards lol
@@kreatioum thigh? Do you mean tight?
@@counterfeit4450 yeah my bad
You nailed it Lexi! Thank you. Well done. Instant fan!😁

Precious information, grateful for it
Thanks Lexy. I enjoyed your attention to detail.
Good job Lexy! Good information, well thought out and well presented.
She does really good hand breakdowns in her vlogs too

Thank you!!!
Are there any situations where i should just call preflop??
thanks guys
Whats rfi and ev ,Spr ? Give it a Short name site ?
Great content Lexy!
Thank you...thank you... thank you....verymuch :))
Great tutorial
Is this meant to be 6 handed?
Hi, my opponents think my range includes only monsters and broadways. How can I exploit this?
widen your range!
It is wide :)
They just perceive otherwise.
Bluff alittle

You’re so right man, btw can you tell me when and where you play?
@@Sillyrabbit345😂
Played in San Dieog run good with your husband. Shoutout …. I got 23rd Christopher Whitehead , pokernews
"Position is everything" - That's what she said.
She did indeed say that 🧐
My girl says position and stack size don't matter, it's the notion of you boasting.
🤦🏻♂️
My preflop range is the whole board
Hand ranges should be changing every 30 mins cuz now we know that ICM should be taking in consederation very much so

Such a great video, thank you. It would be a mistake to only watch this video once.
Congratulations on your recent marriage.
Position, Position, Position.
Watched this 2x already bout to do a third
Good info but title should read preflop play for absolute beginners.
Who cares
A3ss doesnt dominate KQ ... also icm considerations and SPR etc deserves a disclaimer..
👍👍
Easy just play AA and no other hands and go all in every time you get it = print 💰💰

One thing I never understood. Why include A4s and A5s but not A2s or A3s? You're just as likely to make a straight or flush with A2s as you are A4s. And if you hit 2p with A2 it isn't much worse off than 2p with A5.
maybe reverse implied odds, u lose to better streights?
A2 can't flop a double-gutshot so that's at least part of the reason.
and the double-gutter that A3 can flop is 457; when a 6 comes you'll then be vulnerable to anyone with an 8. when A4 flops 356 and a 7 comes you are not vulnerable to a bare 8.
sorry 356 on A4 is open-ended not a double gutter. 🤪 but the point about not having reverse implied odds (s/o ihaok) applies to both 356 and 357.
I’m not sure about A 3 - that’s probably being used to balance other actions, but A 2 cannot flop open-ended unlike ALL of the other wheel aces - that’s why A 2 is so bad
You can make straights with 72…
Weak , amateurish. Poorly presented w/no backup for the claims. Harrington Volume 4 100x better. Sorry. Glad you been successful tho.
Just say you don't like women.
im not learning poker from woman.
there's things no one can teach to an animal like you.
If you listen then you will learn.
Great video. Thanks coach
