How many of these 9 bluffing tells did you already know? Also, here is the advanced strategy I use with pocket pairs: ruclips.net/video/hhE__2QX9hQ/видео.html
The quick bet and the story not making sense, I’ve heard before.
One hand that still bothers me is I was in hand with a guy at a 1/3 starting with about $900 effective. He raised and I called with QQ. Flop was 2 clubs all below Q. He bet, I called. Turn was a blank and he bets around $100 and I check raise to around $300. He calls. River was a king which completed the flush, was a over card to my pair, and I think also brought in a straight, even though I blocked the straight. Almost as soon as the king hit the felt he announced all in. I tanked and remember thinking that the snap all in is usually a tell, but I couldn’t pull the trigger and folded.
@@jolaz69 There is more to everything than a simple rule. If a card comes that completes every possible draw the opponent might have had, folding is not bad usually.
@@jarirepo1172 op
I knew 6 of 9. Not terrible. But now I know 9/9. 🤘😎
Great vid Nathan. I'd even lower the flop raise percentage to 15%, although I'm a 8+ max tourney grinder, not a 6max cash game player.
These players also usually have a higher than normal 3bet % - and think aggression is the most important strategy element of the game. Great resource to collect chips.
PS - on #3 you hyphenated ridiculous wrong. For REC poker players its hyphenated
Re-dick. :)
#8: In my experience, talking a lot means they are strong. They are comfortable enough to talk freely, not fearing they might give something away.
exactly why this vid is here to get fish
Yes, when they have the nuts and talk a lot, it’s a release of energy
@@easyroc75 not always true... but I get the concept. Some people are very good at lying -- so talking during a bluff as a reverse tell is a plan tactic.
Yeah i mean the Video is a year old but i ususlly experience the exact opposite in nearly every case 😂
I think it generally means they are nervous, could be because they have no idea how bluffing works or they have no idea how to make value or protect their good hand, so they try to conceal it; or the exact opposite, they get a hard-on over supposedly being fooling the whole table and it's some actual smuggy over-confidence, but then they also won't be the ones with the monster when reaching for the chips with a shaking hand. For the bigmouthing type, a shaking hand probably just means he got a bad batch of coke, because when he is dealt AA it's due to the merit of his play (as opposed to being dealt too many bricks, which is the dealer's fault.)
I’ve run into situations like the paired board raise many times, and I’m here to tell you, often, even the WORST of players do have it. Remember well a board exactly like the one you showed. 8/8/4. Bb called my oversized button raise. I had queens. Bb called with A/8 and actually check raised on the flop with trip 8’s. Me, thinking there was no way anyone was dumb enough to make a play like that, got stacked and taught a valuable lesson. Yes, sometimes the bad players are incredibly bad and DO actually have it.
At The casino I regular, this would be the common play more often than not. It’s a TOUGH environment because you have a lot of nits, but some tough players and complete Donks sprinkled in so it’s a hard mix of players
Yep, one size fits all doesn't work in poker. Played with a loose drunk last week and flopped a flush with 78 suited. Someone bet $30 and I just called because you can't get people off draws anyway at 1/3 in this room. Drunk makes it $75 and it's folded to me. I shove thinking he's making a play with a big diamond. He calls his $250 with king high flush. Even drinkers or donators vary their play occasionally
Agree. Seen loads check raise in point 9. Terrible advice on the video
Excellent! A couple/ few of these I have overlooked. Thank You Nathan!!!
I play primarily low stakes, 1/2, 2/5 with typical 10.00 straddles. Have learned to be patient for opportunities and watch closely for bluffs. Most of the time these recs are on a draw that when the board doesn't connect they'll try to bluff with large bet sizes. So three betting, four betting using your cheat sheet, just to see if they actually have it, has been working a lot more for me. Paying for info, right? When stories don't add up and they know most will fold if they put a pot sized river bet out there, or shove. One of my biggest adjustments was NOT being scared off by this play. I'd like to add that only occasionally, 20% of the time I am wrong.
The math anomalies are irritating, but it's like you said, part of the game you just have to suck up and not take it personally, or chastise a fish for poor play. We don't want to chase them off either! 😂
Anyway, thanks again!
That's why you have to mix it up. Stare, don't stare. Smile, don't smile. Swallow large, don't swallow at all. Breathe normally, or heavy. Bet big, bet small, Sometimes fold if the pot is crap. let them take their little victories. There are just so many dynamics at a table. Especially if there are seasoned players.
conclusion: everybody get two cards ... just be yourself.
Number 3 has definitely worked for me. I came in to the sign in table, and someone was there already getting upset because they didn’t call him or he didn’t get there in time or something? So he had to wait a little longer. I knew this was going to affect his game. I end up getting sat to his table and could tell he was still on tilt. Saw him make a few bluffs that didn’t make sense. Can’t remember the board, but one hand against him he kept betting every streak with cards that didn’t make sense, called him down with AJ with just ace high,he got pissed and left lol
"got pissed and left"- you took his money before someone else could. Way to go. Leg up man
I’ve noticed that reading people is one of my weaknesses, and it usually drains out my stack. I find myself senselessly guessing whether someone is bluffing or actually has a good hand and I do this with no actual influence from logic or knowledge.
So the next time I play my friends, I’m gonna use these tips and take their money 😈😁 Thanks!
yeah, these work until they dont. lol.
Yeah what does this guy know! He’s only better than literally everyone in the comments 😅
@@Hedonism96 he is playing micro stakes in thailand where you can literally live with 100 dollars per month, doesnt have live winnings and he was even exposed that he is a losing player at higher stakes.
Imma do these things when I'm not bluffing
@@stormy1514 ok makes sense
@@MHGFTW there u go
Very helpful Nathan thanks again,and happy holidays to you Sir!!!
Thanks HE, Happy Holidays to you as well!
The first tip is bunk. I play Micro stakes, and I have learned time and time again that if they check raise you on the flop, they are absolutely not bluffing and do have it.
It’s a mix I have found with different players , some make it obvious straight up and others will play with your mind and you don’t know when they do or they don’t , be warned you can get burnt lol , I have done it myself , won some lost some , that’s poker and that’s why it’s called gambling.
@@fishmutit's NOT gambling. There is a factor of chance and the game is immensely complex, but be assured there is absolutely no way you'd beat a good player in 1/1000 sufficiently long rounds, no chance, it's like playing chess against Kasparov, and by the sound of it, for somebody like you sufficiently long rounds might be as few as 500 hands. Or 100.
I have problems with number 4. But I find it tricky to put a LAG player on anything because they're so loose. If I put someone on Ks or Qs I'd still need to think about Q10o, any Kx. So for this to work I think you really need to solid read on how loose and how aggressive the LAG is.
Thanks Nathan… always learning from you !🎉
Glad this one helped Barkan!
Nathan, I'm a moderately good 1-3/2-5 rec player in the Palm Desert, CA area and I have done a lot of online research into tutors. Your videos are BY FAR the most practical I've found, so I just also bought your book. Do you ever do 1:1 instruction?
On 884r BB is supposed to x/r very frequently and 66 is a standard call anyway.
Thank you for this. I haven't absorbed it yet and got bluffed off a made hand today. The guy showed the bluff but did two of the bluff tells. Jammed all in on the flop and looked right at me. After he showed, I remembered this lesson. I won't forget!
Glad this one helped you ATC!
My poker game has greatly improved since ive started watching you. Thank you Nathan 😊
Great to hear!
On the snap-betting (bog mostly), is it more likely a bluff in a SRP because the aggression is seemingly more spontaneous? Or is it usually 3BP where fast-play is a sign of bluffing?
The stare at you is really more dependent on the player. You have to figure out if the stare is a sign of strength or weakness depending on the player.
I use to do this in a balanced way like sometimes with a bluff and sometimes for value, but then I realized people always read into it differently (sometimes in my favour and some times not) so just to make it easier i stare blankly at the board
Very true I stare both when bluffing and when value betting
I stare the entire time and might give you a little wink to really mind fuck you
It all comes down to the old adage:
If you can't spot the fish at the table in the first half hour, YOU are the fish. Will always apply. This is chess, not checkers.
Another great video. Thank you for your info!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I am new to poker and the example in number 4 does not make sense to me. How are you determining what the LAG’s range is?
loose players lay all kinds of crap, just like me, you never know what someone may have if they are LAG
Thank you! You do a great job!
Thanks Louis!
this is my favorite video of yours so far
Such nice, friendly, presentation. I love how sincere and humble you are, yet you lay out a ton of great information without being overbearing. I feel like you are one of my best friends, not just some online phony.
From a grammar nazi point of view, your annunciation is excellent, tone of voice is very good too.
Remember the word AND is a ONE syllable word. It's AND not AYE-YOND. Practice saying "AND" quickly. Don't "grind" on it. It's one syllable, no matter how your family pronounced it.
Aye-yond, I just can't say enough about how good your technical advice on poker is. Wow, when I thought about these tips, every one of them applies to my games, and I hadn't really thought about most of them ever. Real poker wisdom. You basically just reached out and put a bunch of money in my pocket so the least I can do is say a bigtime thanks. I subscribed and liked.
Thanks Brandon, appreciate the kind words!
Hi Nathan - question about #4 - why doesn’t the villain have a K or Q In their range? Seems like he could have lots of Kx suited, even Qx suited and some T9 too. Am I wrong?
I think the point was most players will check back flop with Kx and Qx.
But you’re right that we can’t just say those cards are not in their range. There are still discounted combos of KJ and QJ out there, but not enough to make this a fold.
Kx and Qx should really only be the suited diamond version and would likely check back river, so his river bet should contain more bluffs than value
It might be because Nathan described the player as a LAG so it’s more likely he/she would’ve reraised from the button with any pair 88+ (and perhaps even smaller!) or 2 broad way cards like AK-T, KQ-T, QJ-T or JT. After that particular flop, (Js,7d,5d) what would they continue with by betting rather than just checking back? Chances of hitting a K or Q are roughly 12% for both turn and river and less for a A or J because the hero has card removal. Chasing a straight with connectors or flush with a suited A is more likely the reason to continue. When the Turn and River drop Ks and Qc respectively, really the only hand that would make sense is T9 diamonds and that is about it. Remember that the hero RAISED preflop from an earlier position so that K and Q are scare cards for the villain as well. I admit that 77 or 55 also makes sense but the odds of that are 10% so it’s more likely they didn’t hit a set on the flop. By the way, I can never process this in real time at the tables since I don’t get to play often enough!! 😊
Any thoughts about Governor of poker 3. I've been displaying that for fun and to get a little practice in.
#2 - You be getting exploited all day long by a decent player. Forcing you to overpay because you're acting on a "tell". Overbetting is a mixed strategy where a good player tends to be more value heavy, but particularly used to exploit stations
I do not understand #4 - and admittedly I have problems evaluating possible ranges. But in #4 you specifically say the opponent can have broadway hands. Yes the turn and river comes k and q and you say he cannot have those cards. Why? I can see him having K 10 suited. K J. Q 10 and calling preflop as he did. So why can't he have a k or q - and especially since you said broadway cards are in his range. TKS
I tend to try a taunt a player to call when I'm all in and have the Nuts. Lately it has not worked.
Really well done
People know all these things and they do the opposite, or the opposite opposite, to appear to be bluffing when strong.
top pros can raise almost every flop with a perfect balanced strategy
I like to do the opposite of the opposite and then opposite that opposite with another opposite. Works every-time
Skilled players do but this channel is all about milking bad players in micros.
Not everyone, when a player knows you know these tells they exploit these tells by doing the opposite of what you expect
Shit works at little home games or lil home tourneys with people who rarely play, sit down at the casino with real players & all that jazz flys out the window... Best believe I won the majority of home games & home tourneys & when I finally stepped up to casino tables, got my ass handed to me for bout 3 months straight till I finally figured out how the pros really play & then u gotta figure out if the pro is just flexing rich man money pressure or really just a pro putting u in constantly tough positions... but the one thing I learned which is the most important, it's always better to be the guy shooting the gun than to be the guy taking the bullet & that theory seems to work more often than not if u can create the proper storyline no matter what hand ur holding...
Can you explain how nr.2 can co-exist with your continuous push of betting BIG when you have it against recreational players, because they will call you down anyway? What if a 🐟 uses this same tactic and is therefore not bluffing?
This works assuming they are playing GTO poker (or at least trying to play with ranges). Recreational Old guys who raise at any time 90+% of the time they have a strong hand (or even just top pair with a decent kicker aka any broadway card to go with it)
I think you do a great job putting out content and making your personal dream to come true. I don't know for certain how accurate some of your information is to the audience. Sometimes dead right and sometimes dead wrong. But you have found your passion, you make a living doing what you enjoy, and you're influencing thousands for good ( and bad).
You're living the dream and life most of the commentators are desiring.
Regardless of the audience results, you're doing your thing and many are jealous haters.
I like you and follow because you are showing me to go after my dream and my thing...and it's the Pastoral ministry. Pokers just my fellowship time with friends. Keep doing you! It's inspiring to those that want to break free from American slavery called 9-5
Thanks for watching my poker videos, glad they help!
10:25 I’m confused, didn’t you say that pocket kings and pocket queens would have been in the premium part of their range that they 3-bet most frequently with? Why are K and Q on the turn and river not in their range? I think the story would make perfect sense for someone with pocket kings who was trying to protect their overpair and then was trying to value bet their top set later…
Because they would have raised on the flop in that range, but didn’t.
This video is solid gold, it's more than just about bluffing. Thanks Nathan.
Glad this one helped you Rikki!
lmao now come see me at a poker table and you can use all these fantastic tips. they all really work
Just a feedback....i have seen large betting sizes also with the nuts. Because it looks weak, and they want you to call. Again, here, it is important to know the type of player who is making the overbet.
Great tips.... question, I play a local 1/3 in casino Delaware parks. Long story short, at these stakes do these same things apply??
Definitely apply at 1/3. Thanks for watching my poker videos!
Love it.
In the bluff that didn't make sense example, you said the LAG player's range would contain middle or low pairs and a lot of Broadway type cards. So why would the story make sense if they had any of the following: pocket 5s, 7s, KJ KQ, JQ? I am not trying to argue, I am just trying to understand. They're a LAG and either flopped a set or hit their Broadway cards on flop and turn or on the flop and river.
I misread a jugular pulsing really hard at a finals game as a bluff, this guy was taking ages to think how to play the hand, which I learned there and then is a tell of strength not weakness. Glad to see my lesson confirmed
Great video bro 😎
Happy to help, thanks for watching my poker videos!
HI, I PLAY HER AT MY LOCAL POKER CLUB IN SMALL STAKES TOURNAMENTS. YOUR TIPS HAVE BEEN INVALUABLE IN HELPING ME CASH FOR OVER $1000 THE LAST FOUR SESSIONS. IM MORE FOCUSED, AND DISCIPLINED WHEN BETTING LARGE OR FOLDING THANKS SO MUCH!
Great stuff! I'm actually guilty of a few of these tells, myself.
Happy to help, thanks for watching my poker videos!
#9: The amount of XR in the equilibrium for this board in BBvsBU spot is 25.8%...So, it is hard to stablish that facing a XR in that spot is a "fishy signal"...Indeed, a low XR in that spot is signal of "weak reg".
I watched till the second time you said "fish". Got about 20 seconds in. People that think about other players like this are a)rude and b)overconfident. It really comes through and makes them easy to spot.
Ty Nathan😁👍
Tony G is a good example of the false tell chatterbox.
He straight up tells you he has nothing... you call you win.
Half the time its true lol.
I miss seeing Tony G everwhere.
The guy was a stand up comedian who used a poker table for material. 🤣
Went to play 1/3 no limit yesterday. New table, $300 max buy. I hadn't even paid 2 blinds and got AQs. Flop was garbage, I was on the button and bet 5bb. Called all around. Turn comes A. Get called again. River comes garbage. He checks, I bet $50 and he raises me all in. He check/called me every street and goes all in. He played every hand before that too. (All 6)
Easy call. Doubled up and left. They weren't happy with me.
Was it a dick move?
Not at calling stations
speaking of #1, when i raise with the nuts and opponent is deciding whether to call i'll sit silent and tell myself i'm bluffing and say to myself, "FOLD!, just fold, fold, fold c,mon just fold" hoping he somehow picks up on it , the opposit is true when i actually am bluffing, i'll say " c.mon call , CALL IT call "
I saw this video just before I played yesterday in a day 2 of a tournament. I just saw the first example then left for the tourney and it back fired for me. After playing for 4 hours and the best hands I had was 1 pair a few times. I had to steal a lot just to keep my stack would not get to low. I got caught a few times and I think I was playing very good considering the dead cards I was being dealt. 10 handed first to act I have pocket Aces. Blinds were 8k 8k/4K I raise to 18K everyone folds except the SB and the BB they call. Flop 8d,8s,2h - SB checks, BB checks I bet out 35K. SB re-raises to 85K (I then think about this video) I call. Turn Jack h, SB bets 45K I call then the River was 3s. SB bets 55K I call and I lose most of my stack - he had 9,8 off-suit.
I felt like such a rookie not being able to get away from this hand. When the SB bet again on the river I knew I was behind but had to make the call considering how many chips I already deposited into the pot.
I don’t agree with the example number 9 cuz I feel like on a 884rb the big blind would have more nutted hands then the hero would opening from mp but I tnink it’s still a call on the flop tho
It would be nice to see a video on how important it is to only be one level above your opponent. A quick example, you point out # 7) Acting too quickly.
I can't tell you how many times I've tried to reverse this by instantly shoving quads and FHs, etc. and it never works. If level 1 is just looking at your cards and level 2 is realizing that acting too quickly is fishy then level 3 is acting too quickly on purpose. It will work against level 2 and always fail against level 1. They're just thinking "oh wow must be a strong hand"
bro you have quads, what do you expect to get called by lol
@@danielferrari3211 I'd actually slow that down and make them think I'm a calling station or think I'm full of crap by hesitating sometimes n looking down
When you have a monster try to let them get a street or 2 to get a straight
Let the fish grow n harvest it lol
@@nautgamingnautgaming9949 this is the best way to play quads most of the time, if you flop a full house or quads always check lol. Unless they expect you to do that…….. ;)
@@danielferrari3211 What does Quads have to do with it? The hands are face down for a reason. You think someone will give you credit for quads just because you shove? Really?
I've head the paired board thing before, BUT I was at the poker club earlier this evening, and he raised on the paired boards, AND ended up having trips! I wasn't in hand, so whatever. He did min raise, so that's something.
on number 6, it was heads up on the flop, i had 9 6 suited (big blind), i had the flop came 956 2 clubs one spade, i had spades he bets i raise he jambs all in , i flopped 2 pair he flopped a straight , i din not boat up
Revisiting this one after discovering I’d been blown off some good hands recently on Ignition by ridiculous bluffs. #9 and #7 ring particularly true, and as always, the fish on tilt.
I’d add another form of “bluff” that these players use is overvaluing or raising flop/turn with a weak top pair. Learning that I just need to call down (situationally dependent) with some strong top pairs, even when the pot gets bloated.
People like you are why game's have gotten so hard to beat now in days, everybody nowadays are getting all these videos and have all these training sites to smarten up all these fish now the games are just so hard to beat now.... cool video You're clearly a high level player....
These tips and trick videos used to work before everyone started doing them and educating everyone on the game..most people had to pay their dues to figure it out now what had to be learned by experience is now basic and common knowledge because of these types of videos..it is like knowing where a gold mine is and telling everyone where it is..no one would do that they would mine all the gold and then sell you a map of the now empty mines location to make more money and that is all these videos are anymore because if the gold was still there they would not tell you they would still be getting it..the views and ads are their new mines thanks to us..
Thanks for watching my video!
Can't even make it past hand 1. I've been in this exact situation before and got check raised only to find out my opponent had KK. I had 66 on a 445 board. In my experience in low stakes poker you should always be weary of the check raise. It seems like the majority of the time you get check raised your opponent has a hand you don't really expect (usually pretty strong.) And they check to induce you to bet so that way you're more likely to call a raise. It's easier to get you to call a bet after you've already put money in the middle.
Nathan can you tell me which pokerstrategy i should apply when playing against eastern europeans/russians? They are ultraa agressive and even with all in situations when im favourite, they hit their needed card on the river. When facing an eastern european player, should i only play premium hands such as poket kings, pocket Aces? Or is it better to not play a hand against them at all?
Just forget their nationality and play what you learnt about ranges. The maths does not take account on where you live or were born.
I am an Eastern European just gimme your blinds fold to my 3bets and we will be friends forever
@@losyart lol totally
No pro's can beat a Russian who hits' every needed card on the river. Or an American who does. FFS, even a Nomadic Shepherd will take all your money if they hit every needed card on the river. I think you should play a different game, like snap or dice maybe?
Would someone clarify this for me. You only pair the flop 1 out of 3 times (33%). And if someone is raising the flop 20%+ of the time they are probably bluffing. How does that math work? Shouldn't it be if they are raising more than 33%+ of the time??
The first example is a load of horse sheet. So many pairs are higher than 66 I've found fish don't raise there, they call or fold
For #4, Can anyone tell me why the K&Q would not be in the LAGs range? Seems like they would have plenty of them.
Reverse psychology. Acting strong when you are actually strong. This doesn't mean anything. You just need to know if the psychological action that you are doing will be in your favor or not. Anything on this can be used against each other too
Assessing the strength of the rec you're up against is crucial here. Far too generalized suggestions in this list, even though the effort is there and there are certainly bad regs that play this way.
(eg what doesn't make sense about a Jxhh hand continuing to barrel a board to the end, or hands like KQhh, KJhh or Kxhh that c-bet their semi-bluff and decide to be aggressive with their improved perceived equity as opposed to obtaining showdown value? Barrel-barrel-shove could mean nothing, or it could be 2pr or a set.
One thing that does happen quite a bit with more dangerous rec and reg players is flatting with a big pair. A raise on a paired board certainly could mean "you don't have an eight" and it also could mean "you don't have an eight, and I have you crushed". There are a host of good pros and regs that will attack a c-bet into a paired board with great success in the game right now.
One time I had aces and I got check raised on a paired board of sixes. He needed up having quads lol.
By myself the switchie makin me feel ten deep…two half of birds when I’m saying I’m makin ends meet 🔥
i got punishment on a paired flop yesterday in a big belgian tournament.Blinds 2000 -4000,guy next to me raised to 9000,i raise 22000 with AA,get called.Flop 664 rainbow,i bet 26000,guy goes all inn for 140000 ,icall .He had 76.I stayed with 12 blinds
What online poker sites are you using ?
on #4 nathan says , it's a reg, with a 20% range, with alot of broadway hands, so this one doesn't make sense.
Your tips are great! And it has improved my game. I just try to play with a relaxed attitude. And try to just look at the cards others played on and not get too excited about losses.
Glad my poker videos are helping you, thanks for watching!
there is no set rule in poker..too many variables...no set strategy works ..
Ive done #8 and won a bunch of money by exploiting that people who go play in casinos watch these types of videos. Thanks for the content
Yeah first hand so whats our plan for the turn and river than with 66 calldown and let them hit an bigger pair?
Fantastic tips THANK YOU
Glad you enjoyed!
What if someone views this & then avoids doing them to avoid bluff detection?
When a player that has position continues to raise the pot over and over. Usually bluffing a high percentage.
I love watching your content, however this one is quite confusing for me. I consider my self a recreational player, simply because of the fact that I do not play full time, sometimes, because of the nature of my job, I don't play for 6 months. Number 9 I don't find to be correct. I had few situations like that where I was a BB, just called a raise with small pair and flop would come something like K,K,8 and I had 8,8. After my check, button would bet and I would always raise. Logic behind my thinking is that if he had K,which he did, with 3, would put me in a tough situation later on, no matter which card came, because he could represent it. Anyway the guy folded on my 3-bet and showed his cards. It happened to me more than once, so I'm not really sure about this one.
On #4 example your explanation of QK not being in their range has me puzzled? I don't understand how a Queen or King would not be a common range for your opponent? There are many times a player will float with overs to the flop. I don't really see how you could feel there bluffing with 2 overs to your Jack. Im not saying i would not call there river bet but i would not be confident that they are bluffing having either a K or Q.
I’m literally the villain in every scenario you would thrash me on the table 😂😂
😂😂😂 I like how u describe the different types. Some people Fast bet ALL IN the minute they sit down at the table. So they could be bluffing? And constant high bets. I call if I think I can beat them. And win. Will have to dig out my laptop and try some software.
#1 i look at players all the time right in there eyes when i have it. I think everyone is different on this. I don't think i would call someone just because there looking at me in the eyes. It would be more on my instincts or how the hand played out. Maybe for you its worked out in this situation but if you played me you would be like wow so much for that theory
Saw a hand last week at a casino in Serbia.
Everybody folds, SB raises 4BB, BB calls.
Flop 34T, rainbow.
SB bets half pot, BB calls
Turn K, the board is a total rainbow, no flush.
Check-check
River 5.
SB check, BB bets a bit more than half the pot.
Now, the pot is around 5000 dinars (25bb)
SB shoves for 55k dinars. 11 times the pot. BB tanks for eternity and calls with 35suited, SB tables 67.
It's a story about the bets that are too big for a normal game. BB didn't trust and paid like 40k Serbian dinars for it.
If somebody's interested, 1 USD is about 110 dinars, but 40k is enough for a grown man to buy food for a month.
As a bad player, I can confirm: I can't shut up when i have a nothing burger.
If I had A8 of spades or hearts in first hand. I Might call pre flop raise and check the flop. The more players behind me the better.
This whole video summed up, strong is weak, weak is strong
Im by no means a specialist here but, what i have noticed on online play is that, when some of these ''fish'' get tilted (usually after they have just lost big) they are going to toss all-in pre flop. Im not at all convinced that you should call them at that point... unless you got nuts yourself because, well, its basically just luck at that point, no?!
my simple math is on the paired board, there is a 1 in 3 chance someone has a set. 52 divided by 18= 2.88 again simple math. 9 handed game
11:54 most of the time, they have the nuts, against me at least. 😂
I would disagree with looking right in the eye - it’s actually when people try to intimidate you. People with strong hands make eye contact. The big difference is when they try to intimidate you out of a hand- they’re showing that they want you to fold. As a woman, I frequently experience player who give me intimidating energy
9) A rainbow flop can turn into a flush if turn and river match a suit on the flop and player has 2 of that same suit
Anything can happen in a game of poker , people can only speculate not knowing what’s in the hand of the other beholder , risk management your gut instinct 50/50 win / lose that hand or any other . Play the risk with your own cards at your own will known as poker lol.
at 1:46.....what are the chances that they have an 8 and a 4?
Tried this a week ago with A 💎 J 💎 , flop came J ❤️ 7 💎 2 💎 with my top pair I check and drunk guy raises double the pot. I call, J ♠️ on the turn I check, he goes all in. Who can guess his hand? The river card 9 ♠️ I lost that hand and a good portion of my stack.
Only the best players in the world do false tells--laughably funny. He’s a comedian. 😊
Thank you again guy ask me while I was tanking what I had I told him top pair he fast said no good I thought the way he said it so I called he said you win. Looked me strait in eye like you said made me call.
No worries
You can call. That always works.
Not sure I understand 4. He could have . k10 q10 a10 pocket 5s a whole bunch of things, if calling loosly
i smell endorphins. i use my spidey sense, thru the eyes into the soul
Bluffing is an overused ploy. Never bluff because you are desperate. Never bluff because you missed your draw. I have learned to bluff when I can sense no one loves their hand ('orphan pot') but without risking a ton of chips. Going all in should be a protective play, never a pure bluff.
Villain donk bet shoves the flop. He is bluffing 90 percent or more of the time or overplaying a medium pair. If you have top pair on the board, like a split pair of aces, you must call.
Number 4 doesn’t seem right to me. The LAG OTB flats your open raise. That is a wide capped range but it would have to includes a lot of Ax and suited Kx Qx Jx hands. If you check the turn overcard and flat their bet, you are making crying check call, and again on the river overcard IMHO. How does their betting behaviour confirm that they are just bluffing? Unless this is just the classic “LAG’s like to bet scare cards” bluff?
