Yeah, the more people still playing, their fold probability and your equity goes down a lot.
Damn, Phil got hot
as a dealer for the last 17 years of mostly low stakes rec games, the leak i see the most is people calling 3 and 4 bet shoves pre and then being shocked its aces. a lot of time these players are even shoving JJ and QQ back. in these rec games players arent 3 and 4 betting unless it's AA. and if they flat your 3 or 4 bet its likely KK, QQ, or AK
I’m not going to refer to them as hacks. They still decide to use the word hacks in the title.
Never seen or heard of you before (no slight) – and I was sold on this format and approach after 30 seconds, cool stuff! 🙂 Esp. the grin as you say "i'm not going to refer to them as hacks" as that was my first thought too on seeing the title lol
Best advice I ever received about live low limit is that your success will rarely be determined by your own great play but rather by the poor play of your opponents.
Andy Samberg plays poker?! Jk jk. Phil you're a legend; appreciate the videos!
Hey Phil, what would you recommend to someone who has lost everything at poker. Jobs, friends, savings. It’s such a crazy game and bad luck can leave you without a bankroll quickly. I don’t really play anymore since I can’t afford it but it seems almost impossible to study working a full time 9-5. By the time I get time to study I’m falling asleep. I have a hard time reading so it’s hard for me to study. Do you think that there’s just a level of passion that most people lack in poker? Maybe I don’t like the game the way I think I do if I can’t bring myself to sit down and study. Anyways thanks for any feedback.
