Are you winning at poker yet? Also, here is the simple trick I use to beat the fish every time: ruclips.net/video/D-KmmetV_1Q/видео.html
did the 95 percent thing stepping my game up to 5 10 completely broke and just pulled 5 grand together ..... I'm lost as to what my bankroll in cash should be we have a 5 grand buy in , in colorado ... i hear 30 buy ins ....thats 150 grand ... Who has this kinda cash ? any input on this ? thanks Phil
I’m +21k this year but was up 27.2k on a terrible downswing at 2/5
Good points. I'd like to add that to be successful in poker, EVERYTHING starts with DISCIPLINE, DISCIPLINE, DISCIPLINE. The discipline to study poker, the discipline to review hands we played, the discipline to put in the hours playing, the discipline to control one's emotions, the discipline to exercise good bankroll management, the discipline to table select, etc. It ALL happens with DISCIPLINE.
I used to be that 95 percent of losers. Now I am on a upward slope. I have only been going up thanks to you and playing allot and learning from you and from my mistakes. I plan to make millions within a few years. It's just gonna take time grinding the stakes.
Nice work Nicholas, keep me updated on your progress!
Im only 18 and trying to learn as much poker as I can because it is a game I absolutely adore. I've made upwards of 700 dollars just from playing with friends in the past 3 months by following your videos. Once I was able to identify how each person played, it made it so much easier to exploit them for maximum value. I recently enrolled in your elite poker training university and I hope by the time I'm old enough to gamble that I have a good enough understanding of the game to dominate the low stakes.
Good friends don’t exploit their friends
@@Greene362 we love playing poker and they have no issue with it
You can play in Florida at 18!
Just found your channel today after spending the last week breaking even online (not exactly a bad thing). I need some kind of advice on taking my game up another level, and so far this channel is the perfect companion to my goals.
you're so correct. Dedication,determination, training and work ethic will always surpass people that piddle!!
Thanks for making these videos. I may never go pro, but I am dedicated to becoming a winner, not only in this game, but in life. Bless you for speaking clearly and helpfully, and not judgemental. in your approach.
Glad my videos are helping you!
@@BlackRain79Poker , I just entered, and won, my first online tournament, earning $351,000!. Now, full disclosure, it was only with play money and on a well-known site, but even that was impossible before I studied your Strategy sheet and followed the tips I picked up from you. I will keep you informed periodically about my progress, so don't forget the name, Game Master J. One day soon, perhaps I will be a foregone conclusion at poker tables; thanks to your advice and training!.
This is so accurate and well stated. I think once I retire I’ll move from the 25% into the top 5%. Until then life won’t allow the necessary time commitment. It comes down to the 10000 hour rule.
Can you recommend a site to start out with online poker? Been playing casually in real life for a while and following your tips, but would like to start online with a beginner friendly low stakes site - I’m UK based if that helps!
Thanks for the video! Can you make a video about bankroll management and discuss when to move up and down in stakes?
Great idea
While he makes the video, a not-too-conservative/not-too-risky method is to move up when you have 60 buy-ins at your current limit, and move down if you only have 20 buy-ins at your current limit.
Good idea, will discuss that in a future video, thanks for watching.
Hello Nathan! I've only recently discovered your channel. I started applying your recommendations. They work. Thank you so much.
Awesome Sandra, glad my poker strategies are helping you!
Hi Nathan,
First of all, thank you so much for everything that you post and teach.
Since 2016, I started playing online from the lowest stakes, and not only did I just play but also I studied for thousands of hours, watched a huge number of videos; moreover, read tons of aritcles. The articles of Nathan's contents helped me to improve my game a lot in ways.
So, I would like to advise to others who truly dedicate themselves to become 5% of the field that Mr.Blackrain's contents are just gold !
PS : Overbetting with nuts is the most profitable play 😉
Glad my poker videos and articles have been helping you Batmanlai!
Been playing live 14 years just started taking online seriously your videos have taught me a ton
I always like the video before I start to watch . Really helpfull!
Superior work ethic and emotional control are also pretty important for success in many things aren’t they ?
03:54 having a bottle of palinka while playing poker. I see you are a man of culture as well.
Hi Blackrain. Good video indeed. One success story that always sticks with me is Matt Staples. He started with a bankroll of just $8 now has over 300k in earnings. I guess bankroll management is a key component of this.
I dont want to be a 5 percenter or even a 1 precenter. I just would like to be good enough to spin a profit on a monthly basis. Maybe just a couple hundred a month. But I believe what you say that it's true that most people (myself included) just loose. I've only played at a table one time and it didn't take long to realize every one at that table was not in the profit as far as career earnings goes. They were all in the negative.
You can’t make this game as couple
Of hundred a month and not do what he is saying and I mean playing tens of thousands of hands!
That will make you becoming a winning player and would definitely teach you how to be disciplined.
I played a lot of hands and I always thought about poker as a hobby.
Till few months ago, when I started playing small tournaments in my local casino.
I finished 1st once, chopped the prize pool with some other in the final table maybe 4 times, I finished 6th once
I realized that yes, I can make it a side hustle but it’s still need a lot of studying and playing hands!
Thanks for the good advice.
I personally think the number one reason people go broke in the game is bad Bankroll Management.
People tend to play to high stakes without having the bankroll for it, plus being too overconfident.
Cheers for the video.
Agreed, glad this one helped you Sebastian!
I must be on the right track because my wife and kids are telling me that poker is consuming me and I'm up $7 in one week
lol 7 dollars
Thank you very much .....:))
Thx Sir Nathan..
For me, pocket pairs that miss the flop, are always based on my opponent, their range, position and their tells.
If you're not qualifying hands and studying tells, get to work. Good luck everyone
I'm having problems with the all in bet.
I’m very happy to be in the top 30 percent. I can practice to get in the top 5% without losing my money. I also love playing poker and I’m happy to do that without losing money
I’ve never in my life seen any profession where the very top 1% even less than 1% get rich. That’s pretty much with everything. Lawyers, doctors, pilots, engineers etc even business owners only the very top 1% of the businesses out there are making enough to get rich off it. It’s just about finding what you have the best chance to make that money in. If you have the personality of a lawyer and like to fix problems in other people’s lives you’d probably have a good chance to make it. But all who are rich and successful have 3 things in common that’s luck #1 this also holds the most weight. What I like about poker is everyone has luck. Everyone. It’s a game with a certain amount of luck tied to each hand. It’s beautiful really. Along with that #2 discipline/hardwork and #3 love/obsession
I agree with the emotional part. You have to be able to take the hits, cause they are gonna happen. And it is a game, when you get rocked, chuck it aside and keep playing your game. That said, I'm one that cashed out a winner, not 6 figures or anything but ..... the problem with making a living doing this is that, it just ain't worth it. The highest of highs are not 1/10th of how bad the lowest of lows are. And what you said, towards the end ... I get 0 joy from playing anymore. I sat with pros and never felt outmatched, they are playing the same game I am. I'll play for a couple hundred bucks but that's it, and just for fun, I'm bringing my A game but just with buddies. Rather get drunk playing $5 blackjack than poker at this point.
Winning at gambling is dangerous. More so than losing.
I had a buddy who won $25k on a slot machine the 1st time he ever went to a casino, and it made him a gambling addict that lost many times more chasing that dragon.
He couldn't afford to lose and was counting on winning, it ruined him for a while.
I forget which comedian said it, but that car ride to the casino was always way more fun than the ride home. 😆
I'm curious, when you say 5% of poker players make money, what do you consider the population of poker players to be? Is it just anyone who plays it in a casino or is there a more specific guideline?
anyone who ever play i guess
I used to waste more money on Zynga then I ever did on real Poker. 😂 I got good at Zynga and made it to a half billion chips before I quit playing
My biggest problem In poker is spending is much of my winnings on stuff u only buy with gambling winnings . My biggest win at Aria I cashed out and didn't care about my room drove back to long beach .
I’m definitely in that 25% of “small winners”. I win a few hundred bucks in my local 1-2 game every so often. I’m above break even, but not by a huge amount, and I’m not grinding away at the tables. I personally get more enjoyment studying, getting super into the math of the game, watching the best players, going through situations, examining the psychological element to the game, and working on my game slowly but surely than I do actually playing. I’m not incredibly motivated by money, I play this game so I can watch myself improve, thats where I get my enjoyment. I’m a lawyer, I’m not strapped for cash, and I love my job.
If I do lose in the end at least I didn't invest nothing. I am starting off with a bankroll I made from playing freeroll tourneys for cash prizes. Beating 600 to 800 players in a tournament isn't easy but I did it and built my bankroll from scratch. I didn't invest money. Just my time playing and learning. I play all day every day. Even when I work i am playing. I still do my job but I play all night long when I work also. 😂 Addicted to poker!
I got pocket kings in the big blind. I raised aggressively and got two callers. The board comes up A74 with all different suites. One of the players bets about 1.1 times the amount of the pot. I fold. The other player calls. The turn comes 9. Then the river comes a 2. That player bets the size of the pot. The other player calls and wins with pockets jacks. The bettor turns over Q10. At that point, I am fuming because I just got bluffed out of pocket kings. I get pocket queens. The flop comes up A95 with two cards of the same suit. This same player that bluffed me last time bets about 1 1/2 times the size of the pot. I am thinking that I am not going to allow this player to bully me. I raise the size of the pot and we end up getting into a raising war. The player turns over two pair showing me A9 and my hand doesn’t improve, and I lose my entire chip stack. What did I do wrong?
Also, the pitfalls outside of poker and money management off the tables, or lack there of, is also a big reason why poker players go broke.
Yup. You see the same thing with employees in high paying but volatile industries like oil and gas.
If someone told you 95% of the people at this job you apply for lose money at work would you take that gig?
Belief makes reality
I'm a 16 year old highschool student who plays on SWC for 4 hours a day on average after school and way more on weekends. Been doing this for about a year now, and am hoping to build up the work ethic to become a pro poker player when I am able to play at casinos.
edit: I have disregarded all of the responsible and reasonable advice from the adults in my life and I am currently crushing NL25 online. I regret nothing.
Don't. Apply that work ethic to something else and build a normal career. You'll almost certainly make more money doing that and you'll have the financial freedom and time to play in your spare time. The bad sessions and the bad beats aren't that devastating when you have a good paying job to fall back on.
@@indianapatsfan What this guy said. Prepare a safety net first. Statistically, it is very likely you will be a breakeven player or worse for a while before you see results come in to support the lifestyle you want.
@Bappo Casino play will be in the evenings and weekends because those hours are when working people have off and are able to go to the casino. So you'll want to still play online during the day, casino in the evenings/weekends.

How can you make a video with this title without mentioning rake?
I lost my money too badly
Great video
Thank you, I appreciate the kind words!
A big mistake I did early on was to play too much without studying. The amount of study you need to put in to win any money at all is significant. You should probably study more than you actually play in the beginning.
No coach will ever tell you to study more than you play, that's ridiculous. You need volume and consistency. You don't get that by studying 6 hrs and playing 2 hrs. You're gonna be thinking miles ahead of any micro stakes player and losing.
@@G0DofRock Wont help you beat even NL5 if you dont know the proper hand ranges, 3-bet ranges, how to read player stats, how to read players, the importance of variance, reviewing your bad hands etc. I believe you should always study. The amount of hands means nothing if you play bad.
@@Chuck_N0rris Yes, I know, you don't need to be studying hand-ranges for any good length of time, you follow basic range-recommendations and develop your own ranges over time. If you play well, you won't know because you'll have like 5k hands or less per month.
This is such bs.. you will lose or break even fellas.. get a real job or start a new business
ANSWER: Because they play ONLINE poker!! Impossible to win there!
Lol you're out of your mind if you think 1% of poker players make millions and 5% make life changing money. You're telling me 1 out of 100 random poker players are going to earn 1 million + off poker? Not a chance.
He's not talking about random poker players... he's talking about the pool of poker players who are studying or taking the game seriously.
@@G0DofRock Ah. That changes things. Still, 1 out of 100 is too high.
most successful people in ALL fields practice what you are saying.
🤔
So you mean treat this game like your Wife ..
Advertising about getting time freedom, advocates about playing more than 10 hours a day... Not sure you fully understand freedom, the only thing you are getting financial freedom of is selling your books online. Working as a software developer or pro poker player, same hours, on avg the same income, I bet that programming is much more stable and less emotionally exhausting job
You've played tens of millions of hands. How many royal flushes have you had?
Hey I can the tell you away everybody is u loses at online poker and that is this number generator this is also why people think that the game is hacked but it's because it uses a thing calld deterministics in the program to be able to have indeterminate causes and these are in relation to chance and they are the things you call variance this what the number generator s are programmed to do and it's contradictory to this kind of program and you'll get beat full House over flush for times in one day and what's the odds of that happening this is where I'm at in my life in poker determination it's my problem I suppose but why do they call it random and generator when you get 6 2 over and over again t or an onslaught of Jack's in every hand and it's hard to bluff every time you want when there's a full tab so Black rain 79 I'm a player that needs to have the upper hand or advantage somehow and so how do you achieve this I know equity is the cure to variance that was my guess what is yours
You know you can and everything but just remember to is you cannot play one game at a time and be a pro either
I am not playing this nonsense gambling game
The people who win at poker are the people running it…
They lose guys they listen to nooblets like this guy. Im up 100k since 2001. I lost a bunch in the beginning but then started crushing 2003.2012. It was so easy back then,. Now GTO, theory, advantage poker, exploitive poker, poker bots pretty much make the game harder to win at. The best players have more gamble in their game preflop. Once the flop comes, the best players can over run a weaker player in the long run. Find the weakest tableand stay at it. Avoid the better table.
Because There is only 1 winner
sir I am a big fan of you .I always watching you on RUclips.i have been playing poker since two years .I have lost lot of money and now in big tilt .kindly give me some teach and strategy to become an online poker pro .pls accept me as your student and reply son. I am from India
Gambling is quick money, and going for quick money is a trap. Wealth accumulation is a long-term process. People who gamble like this are too stupid to realize they'll never have anything in life trying to make money like this. They may go up in the short term, but most of these guys will end up in the street dead broke
Its all gambling and luck
I can tell you that your tips are not working as helpful as they are! I've been watching the same people night after night play any 2 cards and constantly win! Anytime you raise or reraise they just force you all in! If you try to float they force you all in every hand! I watch them take at least$400 a night! They stay for about a month then a new wave comes in! Usually about 4 players! Its happening for 3 weeks now again! Thay get $50min per table on .05/.10 abd they play all available tables!
7 minutes to say nothing.
Because it’s gambling… only the house wins
5% cannot be correct. What about all the poker players who have career winnings in the millions. Well over 5%. Unless there's I'm missing here
Prove your winnings with facts not trash talks.
