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

first

my comment there

Second...darn. Oh, well. Thanks for the great series Nolan.

Just wanna say it says "with foxwoodsfiend" in the weekly schedule on the main page.

well im only halfway through but a couple comments

I think its a good video nolan but at the same time I kinda feel like your knowledge could be put to better use. If you are going to do HH review I'd like to see you pick out hands (and I realize I should have sent some when you offered in the last vid) that are going to lead beyond the specific situation and get into some good theoretical discussions.

I play nl100 for the bills and the play, esp. reg on reg, can def get to a level where some interesting things come up. FWIW I'd like to see discussions on things like playing vs solid regs who are 3betting you light and how you should adjust your calling/4betting ranges. Also I've been having trouble with regs who are stl/calling my blind 3bets light and not folding much to cbets.

Again, I know its retarded to only bringing this up now and also another good all around vid.

I like being able to see see the hand histories written out before they're discussed. That way I can go through it myself and see if my ideas are in line with the instructors.

Nice vid Nolan, I disagree about your knowledge being put to better use. I found the HH review to be a nice change of pace, instead of being able to talk about a hand for 30 sec while youre playing a live sesh, its nice to hear extended thoughts and explanatations for those thoughts. I also enjoy hearing you comment on others plays, you have a good amount of videos commenting on your own live play, I like this format and hope you do another one.

He's referring to the hands that were reviewed, not the format in which it was done and I 100% agree with him.

I thought the hands selected were quite illustrative so I guess I disagree with consuellas_revenge, too. But then I'm only at NL25.

With TPTK OOP you suggest betting both the Flop and the Turn with about 80% Pot. But if you then check the River, what's to stop a Villain from Bluff-shoving the River (which by then is about a pot sized bet) to take advantage of our bad pre-flop Stack-Pot Ratio?

good video imo.

People don't bluff shove the river that much. It's not a fun spot to be in but I think in a vacuum you can give people lots of credit generally.


Also I really liked this format and it helped me think about some hands I played sub optimally at 6max.

Excellent video. I think it's often easier to talk about other peoples hands because you don't feel you have to "defend" a play I/you made.

Am I missing something on the 88 set hand you said to fold when there was a possible straight and the donk potted the river. He cant be doing it with 2 pair?

Im bad so im probably missing something.

This series is surprisingly good...

Very good stuff I am enjoying it so far...

Nolan ftw IMO. Very well explained very well presented.

Thanks.

a Q45 board is checked around 4 way and a turn is a deuce. You check fold here to the button out of the small blind? This seems super weak.

iphone version please
