You must learn the correct preflop strategy or the rest of your poker game will fall apart!
Whether you are a recreational or professional poker player the same rules apply, preflop poker is something that you need to master. Studying GTO strategies is a great starting point, but if you want to make the most money in your games, you must learn to exploit your opponents at the poker table.
Watching this webinar will teach you preflop fundamentals, common poker leaks to look for at the tables & exploits that you can use right away in your games to make more money!
When you are playing against weak poker players it is vitally important to focus on playing as many pots in position against them often using preflop 3-bets to isolate them heads up. You should adapt between linear & polarized 3-betting strategies depending on your opponent’s tendencies.
One big leak that I see players make is that they tend to lose all of their money when playing against nits! Tight poker players will mostly always show up with the nuts when all of the money gets into the middle so remember that you don’t always need to stack off in cooler situations – especially preflop!

On GG 2nl I run into a few of players with a pretty high 3 bet percentage (think 20%+) while most players are down in the 2-5% range. Would it be viable to 4-bet bluff hands like suited Aces or Broadways like KQ and KJ mainly (which block their value range) more often? I usually don't run many 4 bet preflop bluffs since most players 3 bet a tight range which is not all that much wider than a 5 bet shove range (QQ+, AK seems to be about average for 5 bet shove, where 3 bet adds in AQ, AJ and JJ with some TT).
Also, what would a good 3 bet-percentage be overall? I seem to be around 7% but I feel like I might be under-bluffing slightly especially in Btn/CO and BB/SB vs Btn situations.

Thanks coach
Thanks Jon! Great coaching advice’
Hey JL, on that JJ hand with the flopped top set on the J high flop against the tight SB player, would the story be any different had we (1) flopped middle set on say a KJx flop or (2) flopped middle set on the same flop if we had called with 66. Thanks!

Very nice video!
I like the GTO stuff, and I like the idea of adjusting away from it to exploit , like whatever you can exploit.
Regarding the Find a game you can beat , Play it a lot, Keep a proper bankroll-
I got 1 and 3 , but play a lot is problematic.
The reason is I grow my stack sometimes too quick, and then afraid to play deep stacked.
So I end up cashing out at the expense of playing more. Dont know if I am leaving a lot of EV by not playing longer
Just binked a 1700 runner mtt. Thank you JL for all the content. ❤❤❤ im a much better player thanks to you 😁😁👍
Good one. Thanks!
Hi Jonathan. Sometimes in NLH live cash games, when we have a good hand and we 3-bet pre flop, most of the other players also call our bet instead of folding. In such case, instead of 3-betting, should we 6-bet to make most of them fold their hands and then have heads up with only 1 player for post flop action?
