1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,560
Speaker 1: So you want to be a those stas question. Yeah,

2
00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:06,360
from the blinds to the river, Stay smooth, stay stuttle,

3
00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:10,480
stack chips, stack skills, Let the feuds get muted.

4
00:00:12,119 --> 00:00:13,240
Speaker 2: Welcome to this show.

5
00:00:15,199 --> 00:00:18,839
Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome into another episode. You know that only

6
00:00:18,879 --> 00:00:21,879
one percent of poker players understand the real secret to

7
00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:25,440
crushing low stakes poker, and it really has almost nothing

8
00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:28,039
to do with the cards. It's not memorizing perfect pre

9
00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:31,679
flopped ranges, it's not finding more bluffs, not studying some

10
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:36,159
complicated soft outputs. The biggest edge available to you and

11
00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:39,039
low stakes poker is sitting right there at the table

12
00:00:39,079 --> 00:00:43,000
with you. It's knowing your opponents. Not just knowing that

13
00:00:43,119 --> 00:00:45,280
somebody is a fish or a knit or a good player.

14
00:00:45,359 --> 00:00:48,320
I mean knowing specifically how they play, what mistakes they make,

15
00:00:48,359 --> 00:00:52,079
and exactly how you're going to exploit those mistakes. And

16
00:00:52,119 --> 00:00:54,320
if you play regularly in the same poker room, you

17
00:00:54,359 --> 00:00:57,679
have an enormous opportunity to build that edge. It's something

18
00:00:57,719 --> 00:01:01,439
I like to call home filled advantage. So here's what

19
00:01:01,479 --> 00:01:04,560
I mean. I make people tell me that playing in

20
00:01:04,599 --> 00:01:06,640
the same room all the time can just hurt you

21
00:01:06,719 --> 00:01:09,719
because everybody gets to know you. Everybody learns how you play,

22
00:01:10,359 --> 00:01:14,239
Eventually they start exploiting you. I mean at one, two,

23
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:17,239
one three, no limit. Really, I'm not worried about that.

24
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:20,280
I mean, sure, there's a few good players who are

25
00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:22,879
paying attention, but your average low stakes player isn't sitting

26
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:26,319
there developing some sophisticated counter strategy against you. Most of

27
00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:29,040
them are just thinking, I got this hand. I like

28
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:33,079
this hand. I'm going to play this hand. Meanwhile, you

29
00:01:33,079 --> 00:01:36,200
should be paying attention to everything, and that's where the

30
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:40,799
edge starts. So before playing the other night, I decided

31
00:01:40,799 --> 00:01:42,719
to do an experiment. I was just gonna sit down,

32
00:01:42,799 --> 00:01:44,799
look around the table and make some quick notes about

33
00:01:44,799 --> 00:01:46,760
every player, like who do I know, what do I

34
00:01:46,799 --> 00:01:49,719
know about them? And most importantly, how does what I

35
00:01:49,799 --> 00:01:52,439
know change the way I'm going to play against them tonight?

36
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:55,760
If there were players I didn't know, we'd talk about

37
00:01:55,799 --> 00:01:58,439
how I start figuring them out. If I knew everybody,

38
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:02,840
we talk about explos I've already developed. Perhaps, So I

39
00:02:02,879 --> 00:02:06,280
sit down, I know almost everybody. I've logged extensive hours

40
00:02:06,359 --> 00:02:08,840
or nearly everybody at the table. And it was a

41
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,879
juicy game, too perfect because now I can really show

42
00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:15,199
you exactly what home field advantage looks like. So I'm

43
00:02:15,199 --> 00:02:17,599
sitting in seat one, right, so let's go around the table.

44
00:02:17,879 --> 00:02:20,800
Let's talk about this game. Seat number two is Betty.

45
00:02:21,039 --> 00:02:25,120
She's immediately to my left. Betty is tight, not insanely tight,

46
00:02:25,159 --> 00:02:28,319
but she plays reasonable speculative hands, like especially in position

47
00:02:29,159 --> 00:02:31,439
ten nine suited, A nine suited, you know, things like that.

48
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:35,280
But generally speaking, she's playing solid starting hands and she

49
00:02:35,319 --> 00:02:37,520
doesn't really get too out of line post flop, probably

50
00:02:37,599 --> 00:02:39,800
somewhere around a break even player would be my guess.

51
00:02:40,479 --> 00:02:43,680
So what's my adjustment to her? I mean, almost nothing, really,

52
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:47,319
Betty doesn't interfere with my strategy. If it folds to me,

53
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:50,000
I can open my normal range. If there's limpers, I

54
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,039
can isolate Rais like, I don't have to worry about

55
00:02:52,039 --> 00:02:55,400
her constantly three betting me or attacking my opens. She's

56
00:02:55,439 --> 00:02:57,120
dragging them out of left, but she isn't making my

57
00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:02,759
life really difficult, and that's useful information, know. So now

58
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,639
I'll move two seats over and there everything changes. Seet

59
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:09,240
three is jum Marcus. JaMarcus is a whale, the waliest

60
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:13,439
of whales, and JaMarcus likes to gamble, like I've watched

61
00:03:13,479 --> 00:03:16,199
him turn two hundred dollars into three thousand dollars more

62
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,560
times than I remember, and that sounds impressive, But I've

63
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:21,599
also sat there and watched him turn that same three

64
00:03:21,599 --> 00:03:25,240
thousand back into zero, probably the same number of times,

65
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,599
if we're being honest. JaMarcus plays a ton of hands,

66
00:03:28,599 --> 00:03:31,919
and most importantly, JaMarcus does not like folding top pair,

67
00:03:32,199 --> 00:03:36,719
not folding second pair, probably not folding gutshot. Yep, he's

68
00:03:36,719 --> 00:03:39,840
interested over cards. Oh one of those could hit got

69
00:03:39,879 --> 00:03:42,000
a back door draw. Well, I need to hang around.

70
00:03:42,759 --> 00:03:45,800
So if JaMarcus can imagine any possible way his hand

71
00:03:45,879 --> 00:03:49,560
might eventually win, he's probably continuing, So you know what's

72
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:53,000
my answer, Like, I don't ever bluff JaMarcus. I need

73
00:03:53,039 --> 00:03:54,800
to make a hand, and I need to bet that

74
00:03:54,879 --> 00:03:57,879
hell out of it. That's it, that's the strategy. Don't

75
00:03:57,879 --> 00:04:00,120
spend three streets trying to convince a man to fall

76
00:04:00,159 --> 00:04:02,439
who came to the casino because he doesn't enjoy folding.

77
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,800
But there's another adjustment with JaMarcus. Right, he still sees

78
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:08,520
to my left. That means he's going to out position

79
00:04:08,599 --> 00:04:11,080
on me most of the night, which isn't best really,

80
00:04:11,919 --> 00:04:14,439
And I already know he's calling my raises extremely wide.

81
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:17,000
So here's another answer. I actually tightened some of my

82
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:20,680
opening ranges. When JaMarcus has position on me. This might

83
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,639
sound backwards. There's a terrible player behind you. Shouldn't you

84
00:04:23,639 --> 00:04:26,040
want to play more hands against them? I mean not really.

85
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:30,000
If I raise a marginal hand, JaMarcus is probably calling.

86
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:32,360
Now I've created a bigger pot with a marginal hand

87
00:04:32,439 --> 00:04:36,040
out of position to somebody who's not folding. I mean

88
00:04:36,079 --> 00:04:38,759
that sounds like a nightmare trying to navigate that spy. Right,

89
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:42,759
So some hands become folds. Some hands, particularly as stacks

90
00:04:42,759 --> 00:04:46,199
get deeper, can become limps. Sometimes they all Really isn't

91
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:49,040
to play more hands against a bad player. The more

92
00:04:49,079 --> 00:04:51,720
has played more profitable hands against bad players, and in

93
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:56,720
position like that is the money tree bad players in position,

94
00:04:56,879 --> 00:05:01,480
there is a difference. It's worth. I really like JaMarcus too,

95
00:05:01,519 --> 00:05:03,879
like personally he's like a great dude. I'm friendly with him.

96
00:05:03,879 --> 00:05:06,079
I joke around with him. Sometimes I'll show him my hand.

97
00:05:06,879 --> 00:05:08,879
One night, I folded Queen's on a board where it

98
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:11,120
came pretty obvious. I was beat, and I showed him

99
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:12,399
and he looked at me and says, you're a better

100
00:05:12,439 --> 00:05:16,399
player than I am. I ain't folding Queen's there, you

101
00:05:16,439 --> 00:05:18,720
know perfect like I don't know. It's just play. We

102
00:05:18,759 --> 00:05:22,519
play each other in that kind of a way. It

103
00:05:22,639 --> 00:05:25,600
was also interesting that when players tell you things like

104
00:05:25,639 --> 00:05:27,560
this at the table, you need to pay attention. Right,

105
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,279
he told you a lot about how he plays. You

106
00:05:30,319 --> 00:05:33,399
should use that against him, all right, listen, we want

107
00:05:33,399 --> 00:05:35,319
to seat for. This is an unknown player. Seat for

108
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,079
is the only person I didn't really know at the table,

109
00:05:37,199 --> 00:05:39,399
older gentleman. Maybe I played with them before, but if

110
00:05:39,399 --> 00:05:41,399
I had it, it really remembering thing useful from it.

111
00:05:42,959 --> 00:05:44,639
So we're starting from zero in this game, and that's

112
00:05:44,639 --> 00:05:45,279
going to be important.

113
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:45,480
Speaker 2: Right.

114
00:05:45,519 --> 00:05:47,800
Speaker 1: So when you don't know somebody, you don't invent or

115
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,639
read about them, like collect information, watch what they're doing,

116
00:05:50,759 --> 00:05:53,959
let them show you how they play. Fortunately, this guy,

117
00:05:53,959 --> 00:05:56,480
he didn't wait long like I raised queen Jack and

118
00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:59,560
he called to flop kame jack high. He don't let

119
00:05:59,639 --> 00:06:03,480
into me. I called, uh, he fires again, I call.

120
00:06:03,879 --> 00:06:06,759
He turns over something like king seven, like he didn't

121
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:09,319
have a pair, he didn't have a draw, he didn't

122
00:06:09,319 --> 00:06:13,399
have anything. We won the hand, of course, but more importantly,

123
00:06:13,439 --> 00:06:16,000
I learned a lot of information for this guy. He's

124
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:18,959
just gonna be in there bed with air. Now, I

125
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:21,800
assume on the whatever it was jackhi boardy, you know,

126
00:06:21,879 --> 00:06:23,600
he assumed like a lot of players, I just had

127
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:27,680
Ace king and miss. But nevertheless, it's a good starting point. Right,

128
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:30,399
he's already demonstrating he's capable of putting money into pots

129
00:06:30,439 --> 00:06:33,480
with extremely weak holdings, so to or otherwise, I'm leaning

130
00:06:33,519 --> 00:06:35,560
towards a very simple strategy against this guy. Makes some

131
00:06:35,639 --> 00:06:37,240
hands and make him put money in the pot. It's

132
00:06:37,319 --> 00:06:40,680
not that complicated, all right, Seat five is we'll call

133
00:06:40,759 --> 00:06:44,480
him Brody. Brody initially looks a lot like JaMarcus, right

134
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,160
if you if you don't dive too deep into it, like,

135
00:06:47,199 --> 00:06:49,360
he plays a lot of hands, he calls wide, he

136
00:06:49,399 --> 00:06:53,160
has likes weak pairs, he likes draws over cars, back doors,

137
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:57,920
you know whatever. But there is a difference between Brody

138
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:03,360
and JaMarcus. Right, Rody eventually folds, and that's huge. JaMarcus

139
00:07:03,399 --> 00:07:07,079
never folds. Brody will start folding some turns and he'll

140
00:07:07,079 --> 00:07:11,519
definitely fold some rivers. Uh sometimes he'll even hope full pairs. Right.

141
00:07:12,079 --> 00:07:15,759
So against the Jamarcas, I'm almost completely value warned right

142
00:07:15,839 --> 00:07:19,399
against Brody bluffing does come back into the tool box,

143
00:07:19,519 --> 00:07:22,000
like not randomly. I'm looking for situations where his range

144
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:25,480
becomes obviously weak. Maybe looks like a bust to draw.

145
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:27,759
Maybe his line looks like a week one peran, you

146
00:07:27,759 --> 00:07:29,879
know something I could take advantage of. Maybe the boarding

147
00:07:29,959 --> 00:07:32,279
gets really scary and he caps is ranged by how

148
00:07:32,279 --> 00:07:35,079
he acts, you know, I can attack this sometimes with bluffs.

149
00:07:35,079 --> 00:07:37,439
And this is why simply saying the guy's a fish

150
00:07:37,519 --> 00:07:41,720
isn't enough information. JaMarcus is a fish, right, He's a fish.

151
00:07:41,879 --> 00:07:45,480
Brody's a fish. Like they're both fish, it's not really

152
00:07:45,519 --> 00:07:48,959
the point. The point is they have some things about

153
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:52,879
them that will cause you to want to play them

154
00:07:52,879 --> 00:07:56,319
different differently. And I think this is a pretty good

155
00:07:56,360 --> 00:08:02,040
distinction between JaMarcus and play him a little bit differently.

156
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,519
Seat number six will call David. David is straightforward. He

157
00:08:06,519 --> 00:08:09,319
plays ABC poker. He has reasonable ranges. He doesn't do

158
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,639
anything creative. He's not you know, three betting ten to

159
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:15,959
nine suited or queen jack suited. Very often. If ever,

160
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:19,519
he usually just calls with those hands. He's value betting

161
00:08:19,519 --> 00:08:22,360
his good hands. He's generally playing what he has faced up.

162
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:26,040
He might be a slightly winning player. So what's the

163
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:29,000
answer against this pretty straightforward? Like this, like range him,

164
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:32,159
like he's very predictable, Like we can range him really well.

165
00:08:33,279 --> 00:08:35,279
His pre flop action is gonna narrow his range down

166
00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:37,159
a fair amount. His flopped action is gonna narrate it

167
00:08:37,159 --> 00:08:39,799
as much further in a very predictable way. His turn

168
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:43,000
action will narrate it again. So I can use basically

169
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,279
every tool against him. I can value bet when he'll

170
00:08:45,279 --> 00:08:47,120
call worse. I can bluff when his range can't with

171
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:50,639
stand pressure, you know, follow when his range becomes too strong.

172
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,679
You know, he's pretty straightforward and straightforward poker is relatively

173
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:59,240
easy to beat. Seat seven is John. We arrive at

174
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:03,360
John is knit. Whoever knitted his man doesn't have a range?

175
00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:10,399
He doesn't. He has just pretty much everything. Right, let's

176
00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:12,679
learn about the previous night John limped early. Right, there's

177
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:14,399
another limp. I'm on the button of queens and I

178
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:18,240
may get twenty five, and John just jams for two hundred.

179
00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:23,840
So you know, what's the answer. What's the answer? John

180
00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:28,240
probably just has aces, Like I'm barely even exaggerating by that,

181
00:09:28,279 --> 00:09:30,240
Like I folded my queens. And then the next night

182
00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:32,480
I almost watched the exact same thing happen again. Right,

183
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:36,840
Brody raised John jamser on fifty and Brody actually says,

184
00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:39,240
you're the biggest, the tightest guy ever. You only have

185
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:42,480
one hand, and then he calls with queens and John

186
00:09:42,519 --> 00:09:45,480
of course has aces. Of course he has aces, And

187
00:09:45,519 --> 00:09:50,000
it just illustrates how gigantic low stakes mistakes can be

188
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:56,759
right so easily exploitable. Great example, this player correctly figured

189
00:09:56,799 --> 00:09:59,679
out what somebody has and just paid it off anyway. Right,

190
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:03,240
So if you don't learn information about somebody, especially information

191
00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:05,399
that is glaring, you got to use it against them.

192
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:09,679
You don't get bonus points because you correctly announced somebody

193
00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:11,960
had aces and then putting your money in the middle.

194
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:15,840
You get bonus points for folding. Right, But John also

195
00:10:15,879 --> 00:10:19,639
has got another weakness. He massively overfolds. So I watched

196
00:10:19,639 --> 00:10:22,320
this guy full paget ace's post flop because somebody raised

197
00:10:22,399 --> 00:10:24,960
him and he convinced themselves that they had to set.

198
00:10:25,639 --> 00:10:29,080
So like, here's how we exploit him. Respect John's aggression,

199
00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:32,600
but attack is fear pretty simple. Respect his aggression. Attack

200
00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:35,000
is fear. Well, John suddenly wants to put him out

201
00:10:35,039 --> 00:10:37,200
of money in the buy it just fold, he's nutted.

202
00:10:37,279 --> 00:10:39,440
But if we're deep, but he's given me a reasonable price,

203
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:42,440
and I call him and can crack premiums like small pair,

204
00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:46,120
suited asis, suited connectors, hands it making disguised monsters. You know,

205
00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:49,240
I actually make one. He probably is gonna pay us

206
00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:53,440
off a decent amount of the time. All right, ced

207
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:57,919
eight is Jamison Jameson is a professional and he's very good,

208
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:01,159
very good post flop. He also plays a really unconventional style,

209
00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:04,519
plays lots of hands, lots of calls. But when as

210
00:11:04,519 --> 00:11:07,679
a monster, he'll make it expensive, like he uses big bets.

211
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:11,159
He prices people out of draws, and when he flops big,

212
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:12,840
he's very good at getting people to pay him. Like

213
00:11:12,919 --> 00:11:14,799
he has a knack for it, like nobody ever seen.

214
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:17,039
Like his game reminds me of something I noticed years

215
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:20,960
ago watching djaf on Hustler Life. I don't know if

216
00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:23,200
you ever watched him play those games, but he was

217
00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:25,440
play an absurd number of hands, like sixty five percent

218
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:29,639
of hands, but he was crushing. And I analyzed a

219
00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,159
lot of what he was doing, and he's just calling

220
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:34,519
and playing a lot of hands in position for cheap

221
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:39,679
and the players are so bad in that game. He

222
00:11:39,799 --> 00:11:42,720
just get paid when he hits, like it's just that easy.

223
00:11:42,759 --> 00:11:44,679
So I want to play good hands against him. I'm

224
00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:47,480
gonna take good prices, I'm gonna use position, but I'm

225
00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:50,240
not looking to manufacture marginal situations against one of the

226
00:11:50,279 --> 00:11:53,000
best players at the table, Like why would I look around?

227
00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:55,279
We got your Marcus, we got Brodie, we got John.

228
00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:57,559
You know I got another guy firing money at the

229
00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:00,240
potway king high. Like poker doesn't pay you actual sure

230
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:01,960
for beating the best player at the table. You don't

231
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:07,440
have to go battle them out. So I'm sitting in

232
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:09,799
my in seat. One right to my left is a

233
00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:12,080
is a type player doesn't interfere much with my strategy.

234
00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:13,759
Then I got a whale who never folds. Then I

235
00:12:13,799 --> 00:12:17,159
got another whale who may fold, turns in rivers. Then

236
00:12:17,159 --> 00:12:19,120
I got a very ABC player. Then I got the

237
00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:21,759
world's nitius knit. Then I got a strong professional that

238
00:12:21,799 --> 00:12:23,879
I don't particularly want to tangle to to my right,

239
00:12:24,639 --> 00:12:26,399
and then I've got that one and known player in

240
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:29,440
there that I'm gathering information on. So you know, what's

241
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:31,440
my strategy to this table, Well, there isn't one, and

242
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:34,320
that's the whole point. I'm playing a bunch of different games.

243
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:39,720
I'm playing Betty, I'm playing JaMarcus, I'm playing Brody. You

244
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,519
know I'm playing John. You know I'm not playing the table.

245
00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:48,279
I'm playing several different opponents differently. Now, obviously you'll be

246
00:12:48,279 --> 00:12:50,360
in a plot with you know, more than one of

247
00:12:50,399 --> 00:12:53,279
them at times, so that goes without saying. I'm not

248
00:12:53,279 --> 00:12:57,039
gonna get too deep into that. Now here's where the

249
00:12:57,039 --> 00:12:59,360
whole point of this poker cash really comes into flow.

250
00:12:59,519 --> 00:13:02,080
Put me in a different poker room, right, Imagine tomorrow,

251
00:13:02,159 --> 00:13:04,080
I walk into a poker room I've never played in before,

252
00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:07,639
same stak, same cards, same rules, But I don't know anybody.

253
00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:11,159
Suddenly all this information I've just spent a lot of

254
00:13:11,159 --> 00:13:12,639
time talking about in this game I was in the

255
00:13:12,639 --> 00:13:14,559
other night. I don't know anybody here. I don't know

256
00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:16,720
whoever folds. I don't know who never folds. I don't

257
00:13:16,759 --> 00:13:19,919
know who you know three bets only aces, I don't

258
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,240
know who'll call three streets with second pair. I don't

259
00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:24,919
know who can be bluffed. So what's the answer. Like,

260
00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:26,639
when you don't have an information, you got to simplify

261
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:29,480
your strategy. Play very solid ranges, value about your good hands,

262
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:32,720
be cautious with unnecessary bluffs, and pay attention to everything.

263
00:13:32,799 --> 00:13:35,480
Who limps, who raises, who calls to wide, who folds?

264
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:40,600
Start building dossier's on everybody at the table. Every showdown

265
00:13:40,639 --> 00:13:44,120
is information, Every strange bet is information, every face upfold

266
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:47,279
is information. Every hand somebody shows you as information and

267
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:49,679
you just start to build a database on these players.

268
00:13:51,399 --> 00:13:53,759
So let's talk about the one percent edge. Right, Let's

269
00:13:53,799 --> 00:13:56,039
go back to where we started. Only one percent of

270
00:13:56,039 --> 00:13:58,759
poker players understand the real secret to crushing low stakes poker,

271
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:01,759
and as almost nothing to do with the cards. The

272
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:06,360
secret is information, and you have a regular poker room,

273
00:14:06,399 --> 00:14:09,559
you have an opportunity to accumulate an enormous amount of information.

274
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:11,879
Right after twenty hours of Monday, you should know a

275
00:14:11,919 --> 00:14:14,799
few things. After one hundred hours, you should know a

276
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:18,399
ton of things. Like after hundreds of hours, you've watched

277
00:14:18,399 --> 00:14:20,480
the same tendencies repeat over and over and over again,

278
00:14:20,519 --> 00:14:23,080
and now you're just not guessing. Like, you know John

279
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,919
doesn't have enough bluffs, you know JaMarcus doesn't fold, you

280
00:14:26,039 --> 00:14:30,480
know Brody eventually will fold sometimes. You know David plays straightforward,

281
00:14:30,559 --> 00:14:33,759
you know Jamison is dangerous. And here's the important part.

282
00:14:33,759 --> 00:14:36,120
And these things isn't enough, right, You've got to change

283
00:14:36,159 --> 00:14:38,480
your strategy and hands because of the players in the

284
00:14:38,519 --> 00:14:42,919
hand with you. That's the edge. Your regular poker room

285
00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:47,480
becomes home filled advantage because you spent hundreds or thousands

286
00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:51,720
of hours learning the people sitting in those chairs. While

287
00:14:51,759 --> 00:14:54,120
they were looking at their cards or watching TV, you

288
00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:58,399
were studying them. And if you're doing that better than

289
00:14:58,399 --> 00:15:00,960
everybody else in the room, like they're not gaining an

290
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:03,639
advantage plan against you. You are the one with the advantage.

291
00:15:03,639 --> 00:15:07,840
You are. That's home field advantage. So pay attention, build profiles,

292
00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:12,120
find their weaknesses, exploit it. That's going to wrap it up.

293
00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:14,639
I hope this episode has helped. I'll talk to you

294
