Poker Video: Limit Hold'Em by danzasmack (Micro/Small Stakes)

Lots of general stuff in here that I think is pretty important. I play though @ the same time and while I do it. I figured I'd get one more playing episode in.

It's been great guys!

Great series Danza, loved it. Great way to finish it off

Can't wait for your next production

danzas,

great series! towards the end, there was a loose UTG limper, all fold to you and you muck
86o. If I think my opponents are weak players and the chance of BB raising is slim, I complete.
You think this is too loose?

Love the grand finale w/ your Td7d. So, what would be your cutoff limit for you to play for you
not to have done that? I'm sure you don't care about the couple bucks you threw away in 1-2, say up
to 5-10 would you be willing to give us that entertainment? lol

I don't think it's too loose but it's close, especially with the rake. I think mucking is fine in that spot with 68o.

So you want me to play 5/10 and try and win every pot? Sounds like a challenge!

Best series of season 1!
Thanks danza, can't wait for your next series.

I'll buy danza some shots tomorrow night after our Deucescracked basketball team goes undefeated for you guys liking his series imo!

Holla! With my MS Paint "mad skillz" I made this thing in a little under 4 hours.

Danza,

Just finished the series. Great work. I've learned a lot and my game has definitely improved by studying your videos.

More importantly, thanks for being a class act. Sometimes i feel there aren't enough people like you at the tables. Looking forward to your next installment.

Danza,

I've just finished watching this series. (I have an excuse for being late - I'm a relative new guy to DC). Just wanted to say what a great series it was. I really like the way you present stuff. I also enjoy the jokes! Good stuff. Downloading CAN'T FOLD as I type this ...

Best Wishes,
DD

Chuck,

Great series, watching the 3 minute previews is what convinced me to join DC and I'm really looking forward to Can't/Shouldn't Fold (starting tonight).

I do have one complaint though...8 hours of material and not once did you mention I should help control the pet population by having my pet spayed or neutered. Bob Barker must be rolling around in his grave...



yes I know he's not really dead

Thanks guys!

I also enjoy the jokes!

OK, I got to admit that
"nothing I say is 100% true, ok, my name is Chuck and this really is deuces cracked" made me laugh.

Amazing vids by the way.

Price is Right is some of the best content and comedy on DC, fo' sho!

Woot woot!

Realy great vids!

Really enjoyed the series Danzasmack. Will there be a season2?

Check out Shouldn't Fold - which is my 201 LHE series so to speak - this being 101.

Hi Danza,

I'm a recent convert to the poo flinging and thanks to this series have moved up to $1/$2 and am winning at a good rate.

But I'm just bumping this thread to see if the starting hands chart was ever posted?

Off to check out Shouldnt Fold soon!

Steve

Yes it was. I just have to find it...

I'll link you to it in a minute.

Thanks to iryoku for this!

Somebody else made a table background out of it if anyone has it.

BUMP. +1

Great series! Great jokes! Had to rewind quite a few times because I was laughing too hard.

On the side note, would also like to see the hand chart.

Am I the only one who thinks micro-stakes is .05/.10 and not .50/1.00 ? I assume any advice for the .50/1 level is also good for lower levels, or are the players just too unpredictable at lower levels?

Hi ironcladmerc, I'd say .05/.10 is "nano" stakes i.e. smaller than micro but other people call .05/.10 micro so it doesn't really matter.

.50/1 is the upper limit of micro stakes and 1/2 is where low or small stakes begins imo.

You could say that play at .05/.10 is predictable in so far as it involves lots of showdowns and wierd plays

Due to the general poor level of play you'll find there, it probably only benefits you in so much as you can practice starting hand ranges, getting comfortable with the game, flop textures, betting for value etc - all topics covered in the Price Is Right series - at little risk to your bankroll.

TIP: Don't spend too much time trying to understand why the spewy players at those stakes do what they do but obviously watch out for thinking players like yourself that are taking the game seriously.

As soon as you find yourself beating .05/.10 games easily, MOVE UP!

Good luck.

Nice post oba!

Thanks for the answer, oba. After watching the price is right, I tried for the first time the .05/.10 FL HE tables on Full Tilt, and I see what you mean, it's unbelievable how bad the players are. They'll call every street with bottom pair. I don't consider myself that good a player, but I've been winning consistently at these tables since watching this series, so Danzasmack must be doing something right. I always used to lose a lot at full ring NL games, I think I found my niche in the FL 6 max games.
I'll definitely be moving up in stakes once my bankroll supports it.

Congrats! I'm happy to hear that a) you've enjoyed the series b) you're winning and c) you're enjoying it! Best trifecta ever imo.

Does anyone have Iryoku's starting hand chart? The link seems to be broken. Thanks!

Hi chuck, i just wanted to tell you that i really enjoyed the serie and that it really helpd me getting started on limit poker, ive seen my playing ''making sense'' and its already been profitable, so keep up the good work and imma be following your other series for sure

i see you do not practice what you preach.
twice you have raised from the sb v bb with hands that you do not advocate playing with.
How can i or anyone else learn like this?

The starting hand guidelines I put in previous episodes were for people new to the game and just learning. I mention in those episodes that as you move up/play more you will probably want to be playing more and more hands as these hands will be profitable (and specifically more profitable now that you are better postflop).
