Micro Stakes Online NL Poker Forums

Hi all, either I have been unlucky lately (getting rivered/not betting when I should for value/protection) or I am not fully undertanding pot control.

However I haven't really decided whether I think pot control is a myth and I either have the best hand (so I keep betting / or I check if I cant get 2 steets etc) or dont so I bluff or give up.

Are there any good resources/vids that discuss pot control? And I'm thinking more advanced than "bet my strong hands, check call my medium hands, check fold my weak hands."

Ta

give some examples in when yuor pot controlling?? Iam gonna say maybe your calling to much when you are pot controlling??

As in vids dont know any, but pretty much every poker book has something on pot controlling, well the new ebooks anyways...

There's definitely a time and place for pot controlling, but it is not OOP. I think a lot of uNL or SSNL players have a lot to gain by just giving up on their medium strengthed hands OOP instead of playing them, cause you just end up putting yourself in a shitty situations on the turn/river where you don't know what to do and make even bigger mistakes. You can't really pot control OOP, so in that sense it is a myth. When you try pot control OOP, you turn your hand face up especially on certain boards and allow villain to play their hand perfectly.
