Thanks for this video! Feels like this is important. I played like you couple months ago before really learning GTO and strategies. I was a calling station. Now, I pretty much think first before I do something.
Another super cool video, loving these review sessions--they really do help improve my game as well! Do you play online poker ever? Curious to see if you have/had any success there. Looking forward to the next vlog!
@@MagikarpPoker I went on my own poker journey a year ago (did casinos, online, the whole thing). I wish you resilience because it's certainly a tough journey! I now don't play anymore because I will start a family soon and bought a home so have to be more disciplined lol.
Sounds like at the low stakes Aero subscribes to the KISS theory. Keep It Simple Stupid(Definitely not calling you stupid). Looking forward to the next video.
That’s why bankroll management is extremely important to withstand the variance. Which also helps you mentally to improve your game without being distracted by the outcome. When I was younger I used to be like you that can’t control the emotions when losing and still making bad plays and I believe your mentor has the same problem he was younger as well (Aero). To be a winning player you have overcome a lot of things including the mentality which not everyone can handle. I hope you find a solution to this problem and play your A game in the long term skill will overcome the luck of the game
Choose to focus on things that matters to you at this level and play accordingly to the type of player(s) you are working through. Your stress mainly comes from your focus being on being up instead of getting good. The result comes from you exercising good poker execution at spots you are suppose to take instead of being distracted with fantasy. 4 hour is practically most people’s mental limit in the long run. Build Rome daily not instantly. At low stakes, player’s capacities are low therefore give more credits to absolute spots that are nutted.
I suppose you already know your highest paying clients in this field and their show up patterns? Make yourself available for those clients, one simply don’t have time to beat through every dude esp when they don’t all pay the same hourly. Be selective (table selective) you can only eat what you can absorb as nutritions
Appreciate the analysis on hand #2 with pocket 10's. I would like to hear Aeros take on the preflop play of this hand however. My thinking... Calling the UTG 25 in middle position is sub optimal but not terrible. Guy to his left calls 25. Button makes it 125. UTG calls. Action is on Josh with 125+125+25+25 in pot. Josh calls 100 more, is this what you would do Aero with one more player to his left yet to act? Josh commits 25% of stack against 3 other players with 1010 preflop out of position, what do you think of the situation he finds himself in here before the flop is dealt. I agree with you on the thinking of running scenarios multiple times and make plays that are profitable long-term. The situation Josh has found himself in preflop seems -EV longterm and felt it was worth mentioning. I could be wrong and will love to hear feedback!
While Aero answers u, I dont see anything wrong with Josh's MP 25 call. He's looking to flop a set ideally and win a big pot. We cant always assume that it's going to get 3bet. But after it got 3bet to 125, and there was a call, we probably need to flop a set to win. If we need to win 10x the bet to setmine, then we need to win a 1250 pot. If he has about 450 left in his stack, it would mean roughly 2 other non-short-stack all-ins would be needed postflop besides his to win 1250. Thats unlikely, so it's a no-call of the pf 3bet to 125 for me.
Whether to call the $125 raise or not depends on your assessment of the button 3-better in a head's up scenario. If you think you're behind, it's a fold. You're not getting the right odds to set mine. If you think you're ahead, you can call and reassess after the flop. However, this was not a head's up situation. You need 10x the raise amount, which is $100 since your $25 is already trapped, at the BARE MINIMUM to even consider such a proposition. With the pot being 500, 375 of that belongs to the opponents, and Josh's stack of 475 remaining, he can only reasonably assume to win against one other caller, so 375+475 for a total of 850, and this assumes the last guy even calls. If he doesn't, then it's only to win 750. The odds just aren't there. On top of which, we have another problem. You're not head's up in this situation. Let's say you correctly put the opponent on AK preflop. Now the flop comes J or Q high. You're still ahead of the original aggressor, but there are 2 other players in the hand. One of them might have hit that J or Q. Or what if the flop comes 7,8, or 9 high? Now you're ahead of the button 3-better for sure, but what are you going to do? Check this flop and let a high card hit? No, your hands are tied. You're almost forced to bet. But now you have to worry about 7's, 8's, or 9's hitting a set. With the stacks being so shallow, 10's should just be a fold preflop to the $125 raise.
Hand 1: Agree that mistake is on turn especially with the description of the guy you gave. Clearly he has more than 2 pair combinations here (86, 62, 82, 98s) and sure he could have made some straights on turn with 57 (or even T7) . Not sure of correct size to choose from here but probably want to go for near pot (140$) to target pairs that usually have some draw with them (85, 95, T9, tons of flush draws that have a straight draw or a pair here with it) to set up jamming a clean river card (even though there are not many of them, (like if villain called with his hand, T6 and a 6 hit the river, I'd feel that's a clean river to jam here with IF my opponent was loose enough to call with 8x/9x on river) . Hand 2: Ironically this is loose all over the place with such large preflop sizing. Not saying to fold Tens here, but to a $25 open with a $600 stack is equivalent to a $12 open with a $300 stack. Are you going to be calling every pair from an under the gun raise in that spot? You have to start thinking of where your threshold is when calling in these spots next to act. Flop is a clear shove with a set here. Not sure what I would have to balance it out here with because AKhh/AQhh that would shove this flop, AKhh is getting jammed preflop. You're going to have 9 combinations of sets here (3 88, 3 TT, 3 JJ) and 1-3 combos of flush draws with some straight draws (unless you're a wild maniac here and have AJ/KQ here... and if you have those hands you have at least 3 combinations of JTs) . Turn is a clear check with everything getting there. Now losing to QQ, 99 and AK and flushes. You can't even call a shove. Unless the guy bets like.. a quarter of the pot (25% ~$150 maybe 200$) you have a clear check/fold because they will most likely fold river if it pairs (and some of the time they call and you lose to queens full / quad queens). Hand 3: The preflop raise sizing is quite large. I'd fold to the 3-bet. You're just losing a ton of money opening this hand to begin with to this size (not saying not to open KQo utg, but not for 6.66xbb).. The big blind's 3-bet size is quite small but it doesn't matter, it's still a losing proposition long-term to take on this hand. Like if you made it $12 preflop and BB made it $60 (instead of what he should make it like $90), you could consider calling with KQs (and still folding KQo in that spot too) but even opening to $20 and getting 3-bet here to $80 with KQs.. you should still muck that hand preflop.. As for flop.. really unsure and this goes back to preflop. With opponents small sizing, you feel compelled to peel a card off.. I feel that we have one of our few bluff hands here which would be good to raise (especially if you have Kh and not Kd like graphics showed) and raise flop to $150 and fold if he jams and/or just check turn/river unimproved if you get called on the flop. Consideration could be made for jamming a heart turn (especially a Th/Jh/Ah turn card). Hand 4: I'd prefer betting flop bigger to near pot if not full pot when multi-way. Our bet range multi-way is going to be very narrow so we can take a bigger sizing more often. As for after your flop bet facing the small blind check raise, yes they could be on diamonds, but how often will a player check raise a flush draw here. Also CO's big preflop raise size, i'd have to assume they would toss the trashy suited hands and only stick around with good diamonds (of course this depends on SB's range here, but I could definitely see A3dd being folded preflop) .. so I could see only like 12-15 diamonds flush combinations here and then you have to consider how many of them would check raise the flop (especially so small and with CO behind) . If all those flush draws would check raise the flop and jam turn, then the hand is fine. You need ~30% to break-even and vs 77-44-22, if you just add in 4 diamond draws you have roughly the equity you need to call on the turn (most likely you need to find 6 diamond hands that villain plays this way (and depending on opponent, maybe closer to 9 since you're going to see a 22-44-77 here more often than diamonds).. Overall this looks spewy, but it's "fine". Hand 5:.. I don't know, opening Button is fine but not if CO limped.. I guess it's still fine. On this flop and turn texture, I'd just go with checking it and taking my equity and showdown value but maybe a small bet on turn is better to get a hand like J9 to fold their equity. River is .. just incinerating money. Betting is great but calling the raise on this river, the villain is either going to be the top end straight (8x) or a flush 90+% of the time (if not 99.9%)). Like 1 time in 100 you might get shown spades that missed and you feel dumb but 99 out of 100, you'd make a correct fold by folding to a raise. Also with the guys speech of "time to go home" I would feel gross if I had 8x here (top end of straight here) and feel like if I call i'm losing to a flush at least 50% of the time.
I feel i run into the fishy calling stations at .25/.50 cent blinds and its like a table full of them, it drives me MAD. I think i need to exercise patience more because i lose everytime i get jam-raised on the river by the power callers
I think the better bets are half potish when you want to see where your at aka hungry horse 🐴 poker 😮 better hands don’t always raise big bets because it looks super strong 💪
Don’t ever limp with aa or kk unless folds to blinds because from my experience 95% the time someone limp raises its aa or kk sometimes QQ or ak your asking to get outdrawn by limping
I think obviously selective bluffing in good spots (on the river vs loose aggro villain whose "range is too weak compared to yours given the board" But I agree imho generalized bluffing doesn't work so well against 1/3 population
21:34 im surprised your coach didn’t say opening $20 UTG in a 2-3 game is to big. Doesn’t matter how deep you are. Keep it 4x max! $15 in a tight table
Ok I'm pulling for your improvement. But why hire a coach if your not going to follow his advice. You don't have to be perfect, but some your mistakes are huge and why too many. Your mental game needs lots of work. Good luck
@news Monkey tilt is the toughest to fix. Apparently u dont have the patience for it. It's a step process. He's going to continue to make mistakes while trying to improve. That doesnt mean that its pointless for him to have a coach. Acknowledging his issue was a big first step. Getting a coach was another big step. More steps to come hopefully.
Dude can I just ask you, does it seem like no matter what hand you have, you're gonna get outdrawn by the end? Because with these examples, yes you didn't play any of these hands perfectly, but you should think about whether or not a different play style would have even mattered. On the 2nd hand, you gave them a free card, but they would have called any reasonable bet size anyway, no question. So you would have just lost more money. You run very similarly to how I run. If I flop a set of 10s, I know I'm losing by the river especially on a board like that. There's no question that a lot of these poker games in Vegas are rigged using the automatic shuffler machine. If you never have the actual winning hand, you'll never win long-term. I ran like you for a year and a half and lost similar amounts, and I finally realized that the best poker pro in the world couldn't win when the cards are designed to screw them every hand.
There was a lot of terrible advice here. 1. Don't ever limp KK in any game. Your "coach" said limp KK in aggressive games. Terrible advice. Why not limp? Because if they're aggressive enough to iso your limp, they're aggressive enough to 3bet you. It also announces your hand strength, unless you're willing to build a limp-raise bluffing range (which btw is inferior to raising with mediocre hands to steal the blinds). 2. Don't ever make a play in order to "make your opponent think" you have XYZ or to "see where you stand." If you ever hear a player or in your case, "coach" use this kind of language, they aren't very good. That's 2005 poker commentator logic. Stick to analyzing solid theory, range v range interactions, player tendencies, and population exploits. And find a new coach.
I’m going to give you some free advice….fire your “coach.” Seriously. It’s advice from a random guy on RUclips in your comment section…so take that for what it’s worth. But your video got randomly recommended to me (thank you RUclips algorithm?) and you seem nice and like you want to learn. So if you are serious about getting better and going from a losing player to a winning player: Do not listen to this guy who’s coaching you. Seriously. He is awful. Everything he told you in that first hand was atrocious…and it only got worse. Just the fact that he claims he’s been a pro for 16 years and says he has a “two buy-in” stop loss is one of the biggest red flags for a “coach” you can hear.
@Th3Freek for starters, in order to fire his coach, he would have to hire him to start with, lol. Aero has offered his expertise and tutelage for free in exchange to appear on his own excellent vlog. Even if that wasn't the case, your free advice is still terrible. If an explanation as to why would make a difference, I would offer it, but I know your player type so I won't bother:)
@Th3Freek His coach's 2 buy in stop loss is on his 300bb buy ins, not on 100bb buy ins. So if he's lost 600bb's, I dont blame him for calling it a day and coming back the next day. If ur point is that a pro shouldnt have a stop loss because its one long game, well theres something to be said for keeping focus. Not all players can keep optimal focus for 8 hours or whatever. Some keep it better in 4 hour sessions. People work differently. What matters is the quality of work and results.
This guy's free advice is the most ridiculous I've ever heard lol. Yeah, 'cause you definitely want to buy in more while you're already down heaps and tilted. It's not like the Casino isn't open 24/7 or anything.
I've been on a 8 session win recently with a $1888 win in 1/3 this Monday 8/19/24. But I took a brutal -$1529 lost on Tuesday on one final hand. I don't know if I could have played the hand any different. Would you and your coach analyze my final hand. I'm UTG+1 with 44 both black. HJ raises $15. BB calls $15. I call $15. Flop comes 664 (6 spade, 6 diamond, 4 heart), giving me a boat on the flop. BB checks. I check. HJ bets $25. BB calls $25. I call $25. Turn 8 heart (flop now is 6648). BB checks. I check. HJ bets $125. BB calls $125. I call $125. River A heart bringing in the backdoor flush. BB checks. I check. HJ bets $110. BB calls $110 (BB had 6 heart and T heart). I raise $710 leaving me $280 behind. HJ thinks about it and re-raises me all in $1000. BB folds. HJ had AA for a AAA66 while I had 44 for 44466. I couldn't sleep last night. I think if I had lead on the flop and BB with 6T would had raise me; the outcome would had been different. Or if I raise it all in on the turn; the outcome would have been different. I mean, you flop a boat, would you have played it any different?
Turn should have been check-raised to 450 after the 125 bet and the call. Check out my vlog #8. I state clearly "Never slow play bottom boat." Watch more of my vlogs to improve 😊
You made a mess of that hand. Make it 450-500 on the turn and you get value from a 6. Every decent player with an overpair should fold the turn then and you will win a big pot against the guy with a 6 in his hand. Easy game.
Месяц назад
Theyre right you should have raised on the turn but when he bets all 3 streets you should have just called on the river. Slow playing bottom boat to the river is risky.
Месяц назад
I mean since you didnt raise on the turn. When he bets the river youre beat. If he doesnt catch an ace on the river he checks.
Respect to Josh for accepting such brutal assessment of his play
keep up with the weekly vids. you will blow up soon if you stay consistent with your vids
Thanks man - appreciate the kind words!

You have a good coach
I just think PATIENT POKER.
Keep up the good work. Diamond on the ruff
It’s alright brother I’m learning with u. I to have been making the same mistakes and learning from aero. Loving the channel
Love these review sessions, keep it up!
Thanks man - glad you enjoy them!
Taking notes... Thanks! I have alot of similar leaks.,If i ever see you or Aero in person dinner or a drink is on me as a form of payment.

Which limitations?

21:34 im surprised your coach didn’t say opening $20 UTG in a 2-3 game is to big. Doesn’t matter how deep you are. Keep it 4x max! $15 in a tight table
Not really 2-3 games play like 2-5 some opens are typically $15 at my 1-3 games
Watch U-Tube bloggers like Brad Owens or the Texas Lodges!
if the fishy guy has a hand to open raise he has a hand to 3bet or call so I would play my hand and not get tricky with KK UTG
I've learned that there's no need to be super deceptive in the 1/3 streets
KQo UTG is an easy fold pre.
Only if it's a tough table
An observation isnt racism
Ok I'm pulling for your improvement. But why hire a coach if your not going to follow his advice. You don't have to be perfect, but some your mistakes are huge and why too many. Your mental game needs lots of work. Good luck
I agree - a lot of my leaks are a result of tilt or the mental side of poker. Still working on plugging this leak
Damn he just started a week ago how long did it take grasshopper before he could snatch the pebble from the masters hand.
@news Monkey tilt is the toughest to fix. Apparently u dont have the patience for it. It's a step process. He's going to continue to make mistakes while trying to improve. That doesnt mean that its pointless for him to have a coach. Acknowledging his issue was a big first step. Getting a coach was another big step. More steps to come hopefully.
never limp with kings lol
i agree with the coach, if the table is super aggro, i like limping then 3 bet
Time to go home 😂😂😂😂😂
Why would you call yourself big fish?
Dude can I just ask you, does it seem like no matter what hand you have, you're gonna get outdrawn by the end? Because with these examples, yes you didn't play any of these hands perfectly, but you should think about whether or not a different play style would have even mattered. On the 2nd hand, you gave them a free card, but they would have called any reasonable bet size anyway, no question. So you would have just lost more money. You run very similarly to how I run. If I flop a set of 10s, I know I'm losing by the river especially on a board like that. There's no question that a lot of these poker games in Vegas are rigged using the automatic shuffler machine. If you never have the actual winning hand, you'll never win long-term. I ran like you for a year and a half and lost similar amounts, and I finally realized that the best poker pro in the world couldn't win when the cards are designed to screw them every hand.
There was a lot of terrible advice here. 1. Don't ever limp KK in any game. Your "coach" said limp KK in aggressive games. Terrible advice. Why not limp? Because if they're aggressive enough to iso your limp, they're aggressive enough to 3bet you. It also announces your hand strength, unless you're willing to build a limp-raise bluffing range (which btw is inferior to raising with mediocre hands to steal the blinds).
2. Don't ever make a play in order to "make your opponent think" you have XYZ or to "see where you stand." If you ever hear a player or in your case, "coach" use this kind of language, they aren't very good. That's 2005 poker commentator logic. Stick to analyzing solid theory, range v range interactions, player tendencies, and population exploits. And find a new coach.
Oh, you are a fish, still change the tag and the play.
I’m going to give you some free advice….fire your “coach.” Seriously.
It’s advice from a random guy on RUclips in your comment section…so take that for what it’s worth. But your video got randomly recommended to me (thank you RUclips algorithm?) and you seem nice and like you want to learn. So if you are serious about getting better and going from a losing player to a winning player: Do not listen to this guy who’s coaching you. Seriously. He is awful.
Everything he told you in that first hand was atrocious…and it only got worse.
Just the fact that he claims he’s been a pro for 16 years and says he has a “two buy-in” stop loss is one of the biggest red flags for a “coach” you can hear.
I am glad you're not charging for your free advice because it's ridiculous😂😂😂
@@joeyanderson6830 what part is ridiculous?
@Th3Freek for starters, in order to fire his coach, he would have to hire him to start with, lol. Aero has offered his expertise and tutelage for free in exchange to appear on his own excellent vlog. Even if that wasn't the case, your free advice is still terrible. If an explanation as to why would make a difference, I would offer it, but I know your player type so I won't bother:)
@Th3Freek His coach's 2 buy in stop loss is on his 300bb buy ins, not on 100bb buy ins. So if he's lost 600bb's, I dont blame him for calling it a day and coming back the next day. If ur point is that a pro shouldnt have a stop loss because its one long game, well theres something to be said for keeping focus. Not all players can keep optimal focus for 8 hours or whatever. Some keep it better in 4 hour sessions. People work differently. What matters is the quality of work and results.
This guy's free advice is the most ridiculous I've ever heard lol. Yeah, 'cause you definitely want to buy in more while you're already down heaps and tilted. It's not like the Casino isn't open 24/7 or anything.
I've been on a 8 session win recently with a $1888 win in 1/3 this Monday 8/19/24. But I took a brutal -$1529 lost on Tuesday on one final hand. I don't know if I could have played the hand any different. Would you and your coach analyze my final hand. I'm UTG+1 with 44 both black. HJ raises $15. BB calls $15. I call $15. Flop comes 664 (6 spade, 6 diamond, 4 heart), giving me a boat on the flop. BB checks. I check. HJ bets $25. BB calls $25. I call $25. Turn 8 heart (flop now is 6648). BB checks. I check. HJ bets $125. BB calls $125. I call $125. River A heart bringing in the backdoor flush. BB checks. I check. HJ bets $110. BB calls $110 (BB had 6 heart and T heart). I raise $710 leaving me $280 behind. HJ thinks about it and re-raises me all in $1000. BB folds. HJ had AA for a AAA66 while I had 44 for 44466. I couldn't sleep last night. I think if I had lead on the flop and BB with 6T would had raise me; the outcome would had been different. Or if I raise it all in on the turn; the outcome would have been different. I mean, you flop a boat, would you have played it any different?
Turn should have been check-raised to 450 after the 125 bet and the call. Check out my vlog #8. I state clearly "Never slow play bottom boat." Watch more of my vlogs to improve 😊
You made a mess of that hand.
Make it 450-500 on the turn and you get value from a 6.
Every decent player with an overpair should fold the turn then and you will win a big pot against the guy with a 6 in his hand.
Easy game.
Theyre right you should have raised on the turn but when he bets all 3 streets you should have just called on the river. Slow playing bottom boat to the river is risky.
I mean since you didnt raise on the turn. When he bets the river youre beat. If he doesnt catch an ace on the river he checks.
