  1. How do you spot the rec players? Also, use this simple formula to never lose at poker again https://youtu.be/2iRj2tTbdHw

  2. Excellent video, as usual. I've learned so much from you. You do a great job of keeping it simple. You're gonna make it where everyone's a great player. So quit.🤣

  3. I disagree about limp re-raising. But you must pick your marks carefully. In most games, it is not optimal. Here is the exception. When you have a known loon, the kind of guy who will raise a $3 limp to $25 (or more) with trash and he does it frequently. You can do this profitably because people will call or ever raise him with a wide variety of good hands. Suppose you have a stack of 300 in a 1-3 game. You limp and so does another player. The loon fires $30 and gets 3 callers before you get to act. Now you shove all in with TT+/AQ+. This is far more profitable than raising to $12 or so with your hand directly. Most likely the loon will call your shove, but won't re-raise your initial raise.

    Of course, this should be transparent too, but people are focussed on the aggro tard, not you.

  4. Phil Helmuth is pretty good and he seems to take bad beats poorly. This point you make might have some general truth, but it is far from universal. Players have good and bad days emotionally or run so bad that they lose their temper. Now if they subsequently go on tilt, sure, that is a massive leak. But for others, such events harden their edge to play better and more aggressively or it can make them too passive, but not on tilt in the way we normally think of. This is true for good and bad players.

  5. Thank you for another great video. I just paid for your university course. I’m looking forward to using it.

  6. If you can't spot the fish at the table within the first 5 to 10 minutes, …. your it!!!

  7. So how do you spot the fishy table in the poker room (ignoring the super-obvious like people being drunk/loud). I don't/can't play often, so I only recognize a few really bad regulars by their face.

  8. I made a $100 from 0 off your strategy before quitting, I'm rethinking about getting in again what is your opinion on gto or exploitive gto should I bother studying them.
