56o is never a fold when getting 10/1 on a call, unconnected unsuited junk gets folded 100% though but through the connectivity of this hand, I can't believe this is a fold, at worst it's breakeven.
AJo – I can get behind a fold here, I would prefer a 3bet or fold strategy in the SB but due to the lack of dead money in the pot (where we are then 3betting 100%) and the fact this is an UTG raiser, I can believe a fold is correct.
Can’t play micro stakes tournaments on the internet in Florida. Not on a truly trusted site.
Best poker coaching channel!!! 👍👍
Even if I they played face up cards and I saw AA KK QQ JJ, I would still call 10/1 this must be a joke folding
Alex is one of the best coaches.
Really muddy audio. Hard to hear.
uhhh….this guys advice was to fold? Sorry but this video was absolutely useless for anyone who wants to win.
It usually takes about 8 hours of watching videos to hear assassinato say “fold pre” twice. I guess the takeaway is don’t bleed chips in marginal spots, a full 180 from his usual content (all of which I’ve found to be very helpful).
Good Job Jonathan, you have a lively debate in the comments about the 56o, I am interested to know what YOU would do?
