Hey, welcome into another episode of the Lowland Cash Games Podcast. We're all
about low stage poker and how to crush one two, one three, no
limit, a lot of important stuff at the end of this pot. So
after we're through with the content, you'll want to listen cause things they are
a change and it's I could not possibly be more excited the free podcast is
changing. It's going to be the best thing ever for everybody. I don't
want to borrow you with the details up front because I know how people want
to hate using the fast forward button, So we're gonna jump right into the
content right now. This is a hand history that was sending to me by
Michael on Facebook. For some reason, Michael sent me his hand history.
I always reply to messages. I couldn't for some reason because it said this
person is not available on Messenger, which is weird because they sent me a
message on Messenger. So I'm like, you know what, I'll just do.
I'll just do his hand history on the pod. And Michael, if
you're listening, buddy, thanks for the message. Don't know why I couldn't
reply to you, but you are the featured part of today's podcast. Let's
go. Michael sent me this message and said effective stack size is about three
hundred and seventy five dollars. Under the gun, one raises to ten.
I'm in the low jack with Queen of Hearts, Queen of Clubs, Queen
of Hearts, Queen of Clubs, and I re raise just three bet to
forty five dollars. I like this. So we're just gonna stop right here
and let's talk about race size. I'm a big fan of four x raises
pre fop in low limit cash games, especially when you're three seventy five deep.
So you're in a one two game, you're three seventy five deep.
That's pretty freaking deep. We have a big hand. All hands benefit from
getting heads up, We benefit from gaining position, we benefit from building a
pot like there's no reason to not at three bet. And then when we
think about sizing of three bets, I know a lot of people three bet
to thirty. Here when the guy raises to ten, a lot of people
three at thirty. Some people to three bet to thirty five. I like
it. I like three bet in to forty or forty five. Because low
stakes players are bad, they will call forty and forty five dollars, three
bets with horrible hands, and you just get to big, build big pots
and make money. So our hero here, Michael, who sent me this
message, three bets to forty five, and then the button calls, Okay,
you're in a good game, buddy. Then the small blind calls,
holy cow. Now what he doesn't say to me is if the under the
Gun one pre flop, original razor calls, I don't know, I don't
know. He doesn't say, but I know we got button and small blind
came along. I'm going to assume until I see something different that the under
the Gun one folded. The flop comes nine of diamonds, four of diamonds,
two of clubs. Right, so we got nine four deuce, nine
four deuce with two diamonds, nine four deuce with two diamonds. This is
a great flop for pocket queens. Small blind checks. He doesn't mention an
under the gun one sums, so we can confirm under the Gun unfolded.
But now BET's sixty five dollars, So let's run it back. It's one
hundred and forty five hundred and fifty in the plot, right, because you
had forty five times three. That's one hundred and thirty five, plus you
had the ten dollar raise one hundred and forty five, So it's one hundred
and forty five in the pot and you bet sixty five. You've bet lass
and half plots, So this I would say, this is your first mistake
in the hand as far as I'm concerned. You want to bet over half
pot. So why would you? Well, because there's several kinds of hands
that can call you right. So when you have a nine four deuce,
you're gonna have some low eight sex a sex suited hands that would be wheels
and diamond draws. You're going to have people who might have on the nine
high board that might have flatted you with tens, that might have flatted you
with jack's because low stakes players will do that a lot, so you're way
ahead of them. There's just a lot of hands you can get money from.
Plus Ace nine King nine might be in there, but Ace nine,
for sure, it could be in there. We're just gonna bet bigger.
It's we're just gonna call the pot one hundred and fifty a little biggeran that.
Let's call one hundred and fifty for simplicity's sake. So you've got sixty
five, you bet less than a half. I would have bet more button
folds and the small blind now check raises you to two hundred, so about
three x now you were you were three seventy five when you started, and
when you bet sixty five here and you get check raised two hundred, what
your decision at this point is to just put it in or fold? You're
not calling, I mean, you're never calling here, so just jam it,
get it in or fold. Small blind has another one hundred and twenty
behind after the two hundred race. So that's wine, here's jam and it's
insignificant, you say. Michael says, I thought about going all in.
I've heard you sell on the podcast about not overvaluing one pair of hands,
and also when somebody these limits raises, I'm generally behind. However, this
he doesn't say however, I'm saying however, But he says, this player
who raised was capable of flush draws, semi bluffs, and I've seen him
being aggressive on many draws. The situation is difficult for me. So everything
you've just said says that this situation shouldn't be difficult for you. You're playing
a player that you have seen be aggressive with flush draws. They've been aggressive
semi bluffing. You have way overpair to the board, and so what hands
are you worried about being behind here? There's not many of them, right,
there's not There's pocket nines, pocket fours and pocket deuces, and if
they have those, God bless them. Right, it's just one of these
spots where God bless them. So that's the first thing I want to say.
The second thing I want to say is you've done something other people have
done in the past that I've had conversations with on our Patreon, which,
oh God forgive me for mentioning Patreon. Over on the patren we have the
discord channel, and we've had a lot of discussions about those people who have
over time have made comments about this. They have misinterpreted or applied one of
my principles wrongly, Like almost anytime you ever hear me talk about you should
be concerned when low stakes players raise you or check raise you, or there's
you know, undue aggression and you have a one pair hand, or you
should consider folding. This is almost always river right, almost always river,
then slightly less turn and then less than that flop because the flop is when
people don't spring the trap on the flop, right, They sometimes they do,
right there's a flush draw and they have a set, they'll go ahead
and spring the trap with their set because they're scared of the flush draw.
But lite of times they want they look to spring the trap on the turn.
So if you have a player that you have with your own eyes,
as you've said, witnessed raise with flush draws, semi bluff withdraws. I
mean, once you identify that this player is capable of that, and so
he has all that and range now plus sets, you just simply can't hold
at this point. You just you got queens on the nine high board.
You just gotta put it in. So look, if you take anything away
from this, Michael, and again thanks for sending me the message. And
I don't know why I couldn't reply to you. It wouldn't let me.
But it's fine. Turned into some content for today. Remember, the further
you are in streets, the more the less likely it is to be bluffs
and stuff. Right, nobody is semibluffing on the river. That's why the
river it's locked in. Right, if you get raised or check raise on
the river, people at one to no limit. Don't raise or check raise
rivers as bluffs. They just don't like one out of a thousand times someone
two player might do it, but it just never happened. But on a
fly, people will raise and check, raise, flush draws and straight draws
and combo draws and all this stuff a decent amount, not as much as
they should, by the way, they don't do it nearly as much as
they should, but they will do it. And then once you've witnessed a
player that has already done it, you know they're capable of it, then
you can just never fold queens. Here, we're just putting it in.
And if they've flopped a set on us, you know what, we got
two outs. Maybe we'll get there. And if we don't, God bless
them. Congratulations on flopping set. Now we get downe to the exciting business
portions of today's pods. After two different messages today of people who don't like
me taking up the first part of the podcast to thank people who are kind
enough to leave me reviews on Apple podcast for people who don't like me taking
up a minute or two at the beginning of the pod to thank people who
become fans of the pod and toss me five bucks a month to be fans
of the pod for people who don't like hearing ads and the people that what
the list of things to be able don't like the podcast lately is long,
so we're fixing it. Man, this is exciting, So no longer will
you have to do any of that. We're changing. We're going to one
episode a month. It should probably be the first Sunday of the month.
You're gonna get a free action pack, strategy pack help you crush one two
episode of the pod just like you love. We're gonna jump right into it.
Nothing at the beginning of it, no ads, no thank you.
We're gonna jump right into the strategy section and we're going to bang it out
and try to help you become a better one, two, one three no
limit player. After we're done with that part of the pod, that will
come one time a month now first Sunday of the month. Then I will
jump into the ads where I share with you how you can become a fan
of the pot if you'd like to get three more episode a month, and
I will share it with how you can get amazing training to help you crush
one two and one three new limit for only twenty five dollars, which is
nuts. So in today's world of pover training, I will share it with
you how you can get one on one training with me. All that'll come
at the end of the pots. You won't have to hear it at the
beginning. Oh horrible fast forwarding or any of that. That'll all come at
the end, and any other ads will come at the end. So,
boy, things are gonna be exciting from here on out. Man, I
have seen the light. I'm a believer. Beginning of the pod, we're
gonna jump right into the strategy. We're gonna knock it out. We're gonna
help you become a winning player. Then after the strategy section, you'll hear
me talking about fans of the pod. You may hear me think people who
did reviews, but I'll put it all at the end, and then you'll
hear me tell you how you can become a fan of the pod. And
if you really have lightd here in four episodes a month, every single Sunday
of every month for four years, and you want to keep hearing that for
the low, low, token insignificant price of five dollars a month, you
can be a fan of the pod and you'll get the other three episodes over
on the Patreon feed. Now, the way that works is when you sign
up to become a fan of the pod, you will get an RSS feed
that will be sent to you by a Patreon and nearly all podcast platforms except
this. Now, I don't think Spotify does. I don't know, but
I know if you use the podcasting app on iOS devices, I know,
if you're using some of those podcasting apps that you use over on the Android
devices and stuff, you can just input that custom feed and it'll just show
right up in there like always. Right. If perhaps you're a Spotify person
and you can't do custom feeds and you don't want to download another app or
whatever, you can just get the feed on Spotify. Just put Spotify up
on your phone and every Sunday it will say, hey, there's a new
episode of the pod. You can just open the app, click and listen
to it. And the great thing about those episodes now, so you get
the one free public one like you've been getting forever, but it's only gonna
be on Sunday. No stuff up front, right straight into the strategy,
you'll always get that and then the next three Sundays of the month, or
four, if the month is long enough, three or four sundays of the
month. Sometimes it will be four. You will get episodes every Sunday,
but they will come over through the Patreon platform only for fans of the pod.
And there will be no thank yous. There will be no mentions of
reviews, no mention of thank you notes from people, no success stories,
a little bit I share from people. There will be no ads, there
will be nothing about APT, there will be nothing about page. It'll just
be straight man. It will just jump right into it. We will get
deep into the weeds with strategy. I'll help you become a winning player.
And boy, it's be great, be win win for everybody. My sanity
levels will go back down to normal. I'll be living a much more stress
free life. You guys, as listeners who hate hearing me, thank people
for reviewing the podcast, and you people who hate hearing me read success stories
from people, and all you guys that hate hearing you know a sixty second
ad and you don't want to fast forward it. You guys will be happy
because you just you'll just be fans of the pod and none of that stuff
will be in those episodes. This is this is an exciting day. So
the pod is moving forward. After about four years of the podcast me diligently
being here for every Sunday for everybody for free, it's changed and you guys
have been debating him with it on year. But boy, the messages I
got this past week's in it over the job because I'm like, I ain't
reading these messages no more. I don't want to hear them. I ain't
got time for all that. I don't get paid for this. I do
it as a passion and if I'm not gonna have fun doing it anymore,
I ain't doing it. I ain't gotta help nobody become a winning player.
I ain't got to. I just don't have to. They're still pointing it.
Why do I have to do? I don't have to. I love
it, but I ain't gotta put it with no stress over man, I'm
retired. I don't need income. I just love playing poker. I love
talking strategy. I love helping people. I've always loved helping people. All
my businesses, the one that I sold some years back, it was a
whole it was all help you business. It was all about helping people.
So sorry for the cough. I'm not even editing that out. I don't
care no editing. You get it just as straightforward. Look, so here's
the thing. If you want to get them every you want to keep getting
the episodes every Sunday, you're gonna have to become a fan of the Pot.
Otherwise you're gonna get one episode a month. It's gonna be on the
first Sunday of the It'll be streamlined. There'll be no ads up front,
no talking up front, no thanking people up front, no reading reviews up
front, none of that stuff people hate, and it'll just be straight into
the strategy and then all that other stuff will come at the end. So
you can just shut it off and never listen to it and live a stress
free life the way you like it. But you won't get the other three
episodes. You won't get the second, third, fourth, or even sometimes
fifth Sunday of the month unless you're a fan of the pod, which is
five bucks now, So two things, and then I'll stop talking about it,
because god, I know you guys hate me talking about stuff. So
you can sign up to be a fan of the Pot, and it's five
bucks a month, but now you do have the option to do an annual
subscription, and so it's still five bucks a month, but you're just paying
a year in advance, so you're paying for twelve months. And if you
do that, you get like a I think it's like a ten or fifteen
percent discount or something, so it becomes even cheaper. It becomes like four
dollars a month or something four fifty a month or some highly trivial, insignificant
amount of money for people who want to play poker and gamble. So the
links to all that will be in the information and description section of the podcast
below. The links to the podcast, the link to the apt trainer,
the link become a fan of the pod. All that stuff will be down
in the information section. But if for some reason you're on a podcasting platform
that doesn't have that section, here's the only link you need. Lowlimit Cash
Games dot Com, Lowlimitcashgames dot Com, Lowlimit Cashgames dot Com. Uh boy,
it's been a wonderful ride every single Sunday for four years. I've enjoyed
ninety eight percent of it only in the past two three months. If I
not enjoyed one hundred percent of it, and we're all going to enjoy it
moving forward because we're all going to be getting what we want and man out.
My hopes is to continue to help people beat and crush one, two,
no limit. That's my goal and that's the way we're going to do
it moving forward. Love you minute, see you next time.
