Poker Video: No Limit Hold'Em by Nolan (Micro/Small Stakes)

Yes I agree, and thanks for a sharper production on the way.

To Nolan, which HUD stats in your opinion are the most relevant in MT'ing at these levels? Just the standard vpip, pfr and af? Do you tend to keep a minimalist HUD to keep the table less cluttered? Thanks.

I do indeed keep minimalist HUD stats in the sake of keeping tables less cluttered. I just use the standard VPIP/PFR/TOTAL AF. I also have their 3b % on the bottom. If I want to know anything else, HEM HUD is dope because I can just click the box and it brings that nice popup, so I find this the best way for me to do it.

In the KK hand around the 46:00 min mark, in an effort to make our river decision simpler, would a shove on the turn make more sense? Being that the turn brought in a second flush draw (5h 6c 9c 6h), and we have essentially a slightly bigger than pot size bet left (about $7 or so in a $6+ pot) and the fact that our opponent is likely stacking off with the overpair if we do get our stack in? Suppose the Ac hits instead of the As, we are still committed to getting the rest in when we bet $4 on the turn, correct? It feels like bombing the turn still will get the money in that spot, no?

You're just about 100% right. I think shoving the turn is fine. Against certain player types (super donks who aren't aware of stack/pot ratios, pot size in general, etc.) I sometimes find it's ok to still bet small like this, as there are certain players who will fold to a shove, but call $3 despite the fact that I'd only have $4 behind. I think that's what I was going for here, even though it may be a little fancy.

Cool. Thanks, I appreciate the reply. This has been a great start to this series. Keep up the great vids!

Hey Nolan i got a question to limping the low pockets from ep-mp: would you still recommend to not raise them (so say folding them because limping gets exploited by the regs) on even NL50-100? in the vid you say " raising is definetely a leak" cause its not 6max and so one but where you see the border in the limits where i should start rasing any pp from any pos?

Great video -- it still looks a bit fuzzy to me though.

I don't think it's ever good to raise any PP from any PP. 66 and lesser pairs from UTG will not show a profit.

Nolan, How do you get the HH to display in the chatbox. Special Script you can direct me to?

Thks for the vid. I think it's really good. A few questions on medium PPs as I'm having a lot of trouble playing them (at NL25).

1. Would you raise 77-99 from EP or only TT+ and add raises for 77-99 from MP? How might this vary depending on table characteristics such as aggressive regulars that float a lot? I get in a lot of trouble raisng these when overcards come on the flop and the calling Villain is aggressive floater.

2. Blinds and medium PPs - how do you advise handling medium PPs from the blinds when facing a Dealer Button raise? Call and see a flop or re-raise pre-flop? Against what Villain types? I tend to re-raise tight regs who have high steal percentages (say 20+%).

3. Post-flop with medium pairs (if we are the raiser) when OOP what do you recommend on the Turn/River when Villain floats our Cbet on say Axx flop or Kxx flop? I tend to value bet until Villain raises me.

4. Post-flop with medium PPs (if we are NOT the raiser) do we call the Villain's Cbet on Axx or Kxx etc flops and peel a Turn card to see if he double barrels? Should we fold to a second barrel? Should we fold to a River bet? How does this vary by Villain type, Villain position and whether we are in position or OOP? I tend to peel a card if Villain has high CBET% especially if Villain has raised from late position. I fold to EP raiser's CBET on Axx or Kxx flop. I don't know what to do when they then Vbet River. Sometimes I call and sometimes I fold.

Thanks.

I'd like to see more NL25 vids as these tables were not representative. I'd like to see separate vids for weekends vs mid week and deep tables vs regular tables. These days (on FTP) there is a lot more light 3-betting and a lot more aggression in general than seen in this video. Weekends are very different to mid-week. Mid-week has a lot of regulars especially on the deep tables.

For example, on Sunday night I had a hand where UTG raised, I flatted with AKs on the Button and the SB re-raised, UTG called and I folded. At showdown, UTG had Q2s and SB had KQo (on Q99 flop). There were also numerous squeezes from the Blinds where, say, MP raises, CO calls and BB squeezes. Or CO raises and Button squeezes. At showdown, it is often Ace rag that squeezed. I've also seen a lot more all-in River bluffs lately.

not sure why, but you kind of sound like Matt Damon in Good Will Hunting especially at 17:00. LOL like when hes explaining in his monolouge why he doesnt want to work for the NSA. lmao just thought id let you know

It must be because your from Boston I assume lol

i get this all the time.

hahahhaa.

I don't think it's ever good to raise any PP from any PP. 66 and lesser pairs from UTG will not show a profit.

I dont think thats entirely true

Just a quick question: how are you tiling six tables without overlap? My laptop does that and it drives me nuts.
