Movin' on Up: Episode One by FoxwoodsFiend

FoxwoodsFiend plays 2 tables of .50/1 NL and explains the ways to adjust to the particular styles of play of the fish and the regs at that level. Emphasizing a loose-aggressive preflop game versus the fish, he utilizes the strategies he discusses in order to illustrate how they work in practice.

About Movin' on Up Subscribe to

Ever wonder why you can't break into that higher limit you're always taking shots at? FoxwoodsFiend moves up through different stakes of No-Limit, starting off at .5/1 and playing gradually higher stakes. He illustrates the different types of gameplay at each limit while explaining the adjustments players from one level to the next must make in order to be successful in their ascent. FWF talks about the different types of fish and regulars at the varied stakes, plays he would make at one level but not at the next, and touches on which playing styles are more suitable for which stakes. DeucesCracked is going to show you how to make the leap.

I never understood this 'first' thing everyone does. Seems moronic to me. I never look at the person and think "He's cool." Let's leave that sort of thing to that 'other' site where it happens constantly! Maybe I am alone in this, who knows. Anyhoo, about to watch the video, can't wait!

About 9 minutes in, you limp 33 OTB on the left table after 1 or 2 limpers. Why not raise here and try to take it down PF or with a c-bet on the flop?

Heart, the J5 shove..

I liked the point you made about getting hung up on analyzing the biggest pots.

This is a realy good consept, I think it might make it a lot easier to feel comfortable quicker, when taking shots at higher stakes.

This has been a problem of mine moving up, even though I'v had good bankroll management, and felt that I have an edge. I get stuck in a rut trying to make sense of the adjustments i should make, where frustration eventually lead me to play badly and having to move back down.

Cant wait for 2/4

I'll post it here but it also applies to the last 3 vids (HU and PLO series): I just renewed my account just because of these videos. Can't wait for the next episodes of all of them Smile

Great video! Crack some more jokes though, youre good at them..
The overlimp with 33.. I do this too vs UTG limp, but im not sure why and you didnt really explain why either? My range is exclusively 22/33/44 and suited babyaces. I don't think it's exploitable which is why I keep doing it I guess.

I thought him having a huge calling range is why you should raise T6s and basically any playable hand on btn? He was never 3betting you, and you should feel pretty comfortable in your abilities to outplay him postflop Smile

Why did you choose to 3bet AQs in UTG+1 vs LAG UTG opener? Even though it let you shove J5s vs him (awesome btw, and really shows why players 4betting pot are making such a huge mistake) I feel like it turns your hand into somewhat of a bluff plus it's not like youre ever getting squeezed off your hand and even if it lets others in, AQs plays well multiway.

I'm guessing someone wrote "first" and it was deleted. I think that it is often done ironically. I'm pretty sure that whoever wrote it wasn't trying to be cool.

Hi, I'm a 2/4 player and I just moved down to .5/1 after a big downswing coupled with a need to cashout a good portion of my roll. I find that your analysis of the different types of players at this level is very much in line with what I've remarked over my ~2k hands so far there. Solid vid overall, and I loved your mix of hand analysis coupled with general talk specific to the level.

Very nice vid. I also just moved down to 100NL (fuck you very much Prima network for freezing most of my roll god dammit!). Excellent analysis of many of the 100NL fish - the nits and the super-loose passives. However, I am noticing quite a few players that have much better stats and are semi-decent players (21/18/3 - types). Obviously table selection is key and its best to just find the fishiest tables, but I was wondering what you thought of these guys in doing your 100NL research. IMO, they are similar preflop to a lot of 200NL players, but have a higher degree of exploitable tendencies postflop - i.e., not mixing up their lines enough, making bad river value bets or missing good ones, etc.

Anything else you have noticed about the better 100NL players to focus on and exploit?

The best way to exploit the top regs at any limit is to game select better. Smile

HERE HERE! Seriously though, FWF, you are a natural at doing vids. The flow between analyzing a hand and discussing theory is second to none, and I've watched many vids from both here and CR.
