Poker Video: No Limit Hold'Em by slowlane123 (Micro/Small Stakes)

Is it really a mistake to fold a hand because if you loose it then you think you'll get your money back anyway? They guy was bad I know but if you were sweating a student in this situaiton would you encourage him/her to call down because we can win it back later anyway?

You seem to be forgetting the fact that a decent % of the time here we will be good as he is just spazzbluffing or whatever.

Against opponents like this it is more +EV to make more marginal plays like this as they will be spazzing so much more often than regs.

Hello,

nice video so far :-)

I think, this board fits the limpingrange very well and you have not a lot of foldequity in general on this type of board.

What would be your plan for the hand, if you got called on the flop?

Which kind of cards would you secondbarrel?
Which kind of cards would you go broke, if you got raised on the Turn?

Thanks for the answers.

That is a great flop for us so if we're not planning on cbetting with 2 overs, a gutshot and backdoor FD then we should raise pre.

I'd be dbarrelling A, K, Q, J, flush cards, maybe some other depends on my gut feeling of the hand.

Too many factors to consider for going broke. How much did he raise, how quick, what card came, gut feeling etc.

Table 4:

Why did you bet out on the Turn?

The A seems to be a good bluffcard for the preflopraiser and therefore I think, that a ch/ca line would have an higher EV, because you would get additional Bluffbets from your opponent.

What do you think?

The board is really drawy and we have no sample on our opponent so I'd rather just bet and expect to be called by a lot of worse hands.

x would be ok if we had some sample and he was quite aggressive but tbh if he's aggro he'd surely just bet flop.

Table 1:

I think, if our opponent checks back this board, he will have very often a weak hand. If he made a Pair with the 7 (which is imo very unlikely, because he raised from MP1) he is not likely to call a Turn and River bet.

Would this be a good double barrel spot?

We have no sample on him so saying it's very unlikely he makes a pair with the 7 is a big mistake. In addition, when the turn comes I feel like he's usually picked up some equity with gutshots making it harder to get him to fold better and there are so many bad river cards it will be hard to us to get to SD profitably if we feel we're good.

Table 6:

Why did you fold AJo to the mindonk?

I guess, you did not saw it in the middle of the heat.

What would you do on such a drawy flop?
Would you prefer to raise or to just call?

I wouldn't ever fold here, you're right.

Either option is fine, raising small would probably be my default with 2 overs vs a clear small PP here.

Table 5:

Why did you c-bet on the Turn and River? Which range do you assign him?

You have the best hand very often on the Turn and River, but I see not any hand, which is worser than your hand, that will call a Turn- and River-Bet.

A ch/ca line would be better imo on the Turn, because he has the chance to bet worser hands. If he checks behind you can make a small River-bet for value.

I think he has a decent amount of small-mid PPs that I am way ahead of and want to get value from. I don't think he folds them to the tiny underbet, in addition I think he will often spazz. Your questions often seem to have missed the fact that I have massively underbet pots in some spots.

You also seem to want to be x/c a lot against opponents that we have no idea if they will be aggressive or not. This is a waste of time, you can assume most players at these stakes will not be overly aggressive unless your sample tells you otherwise.

cant wait to watch this, all these comments are great. i play micros and i suck if this guy can say 'these guys are bad and this why so i do this' sounds like the best information ever to me!

I laughed so hard juice came out my noise. Some really funny comments. I'm not sure why people got so touchy in the feedback. As you do explain very clearly why the villains are retarded. Good video!

Thanks for the feedback. Doing another series that launches on Thursday.

Stay tuned, similar concept to this one but mainly zoom focused.

slowlane, i notice in most of your vids in this series you tend to min bet steal, i feel as though this prompts villians to 3bet lighter, putting me in tough/marginal spots.

Also in your 50nl vids you open to 1.25 at times, In a few of nolans videos however he opts to 4x from all positions. I would like to know your thoughts on this . great series!
