Do not over-stack more than 30-40 big blinds with top pair, control the pots with top pair without a kicker J Q or K.

Don't pay 3 streets of value with top pair

Don't do magic. Don't create lanterns, raise on flop and turn with air.

DON'T MAKE ABSURD, INVENTED LANTERNS, I'M GOING TO SEE IF I THROW IT AWAY

Never make continuation bets against 2 bluffing players.

Never vet hands from the showdown (see video Revision Mnoas showdown Sebas)

NEVER EVER (99% OF THE TIME) DO CBET, OR BET, OR RAISE WITH A HAND OF
SHOWDOWN (no auto value tear)
Examples of showdown hands: Top pair without a kicker, second pair, third pair

SHW hands that can improve top pair without a kicker + flush draw or straight draw.

Call strategy against the 3-bet

Summary of hands to call the 3bet with

In a utg we pay with AQs, AJs, pairs for set value.

A middle AQ, AJs, 99-QQ

Starting from the theft area, we pay

AJ offsuit, AQ offsuit, AJ suited, AQ suited, KQs, KJs, KQ offsuit, 88-99-TT-(JJ against rival can be 4bet)

Ideal values:

WTS% 27 (hands that go to showdown)

W$SD 55+

WWSF 43-47

AK and QQ we don't go all-in if we open in UTG and Middle, they never 4-bet.

Common error in micro players

Make 1 barrel, 2 barrels, and check fold river

Either we don't put in the second lantern or we put in the third one.

You only bluff as the aggressor 1 or 3 times regularly.

Most of the time just 1 bluff cbet and that's it

Watch video Whale runner runner (tables)

Against 2 players with a second pair on a dry board, you can bluff.

When a top pair hand becomes a showdown hand?: When the kicker is lower than T.

If the kicker is equal to T, it is bet for value.


Another example of a showdown hand that should not be bet: second pair and gutshot (project)
of internal staircase)

Showdown hand: it is a hand that does not need to be bet for value because it doesn’t have any value. It usually
being a medium hand (top pair with kicker below T, second pair with a flush draw, second
gutshot straight draw, second pair, third pair, all hands that are not for value

Less aggression in turn with showdown hands (see video Review Showdown Hands)
Sebas)

In the CO, BTN, and SB you should always 4-bet AK and QQ+ to call the all-in 100% of the time.

You should add a 4bet bluff range in a steal position.

AToff or KJoff

For example: In BTN you open 0.06. The BB is 3beta 0.18-0.20. Forbeteas short 0.42-0.44 (and if it pushes you,
foldeas)

With QQ+ and AK always 4bet. UTG and middle AK and AA almost always 4bet and sometimes.
(depends on the opponent) just call

In UTG, open 1 out of every 3 folded. Open only 66-77+ AJoff+ ATs+ and some polarized KQoff KJs.
(KJ)

Always play 100 big blinds and do not call a 4bet all-in or 4bet with JJ and AQ.

Situation of the most profitable poker when we are behind: It's the flip (coin toss)
with dead money with AK against a couple (AK against TT, 99, JJ, QQ, 33, 88)

Dead money: Money from the pot of inactive players or those who are likely to fold

With showdown hands or bluff catches, we never call three streets.

-----------------------

For nl10

In the BTN, open with 2.5 bbs because it is the position that receives the most 3-bets.

Have 1 or 2 standard bluff 4bet hands in stealing position, which you will 4bet.
always (90%) and you will only fold (never cold) against rivals with very tight 3bet data

AToff–Kjoff (Santi in nl2–nl10 without position)

A2 off A5 suited A4 suited

QToff or QTs

A hand in position like KTs, AJs, AQs that plays really well postflop we should not
NEVER 4-bet it
Same KQs KJs KJ JTs

BEFORE MAKING A MOVE OR DECIDING AFTER THE MOVE OF


RIVAL, START THINKING ABOUT WHICH HAND YOU WOULD MAKE THAT MOVE WITH AND YOU'LL SEE THAT 80-
You would do 90% of it with a much stronger hand than the one you have. That's how it will be.
ALWAYS FOLD

How to play JJ QQ KK against very rock opponents, I always crash into AA

It depends, with JJ I never end up all-in preflop and with QQ I only go all-in from the CUT OFF.
KK I always go all in preflop

If I or the opponent open in UTG or Middle, I have JJ QQ and I 3-bet and they 4-bet, I fold. KK AA
push (microlimits nl2, nl5 and depending on the case nl10)

With AK, QQ don't stake in early + middle

Vs CO + BT + always 3bet with 99+ ATs+ AJo+ KQ+ KJs

When an opponent defends the BB and there is a double check, we can bet the turn with second pair.
draws, overcards, etc.

For those who play cash with 100bb: When they reach 140-150 bbs or more at a table.
We're leaving. We start with 2 dollars and when we have 2.80-2.90 we're leaving.

The move that makes us win the most in micro-limits is 3-betting out of position with a hand.
bet the flop, check the turn and when the opponent bets, you raise (go all in).

Never lose the box with top pair when being the one who defends.

I would never pot all-in with 3 barrels out of position with only top pair.

When you check-raise a flop and they raise you, just call (if you have a mega draw for a flush and a straight you can...
push yourself if you want, the rest is 'ONLY CALL'

3bet amount: Raise x 3 with a minimum of 9bb, e.g. Raise 6 cts = 3bet 18 cts / Raise 5 cts = 3bet
18 cts / Oper 8 cts = 3bet 24 cts. If we are not in position, we add 1bb more.

Amount of 4bet: 3bet x 2.2 times.

Do not call 4bets except for AA, KK.

At Micro Limits, it doesn't make sense for us to call 4-bets with anything other than AA or KK.

Only stack with AK and QQ if the first Open Raise or Raise Over Limp is from the Cut Off.
(UTG and MIDDLE NEVER PAY). ** Except against players with a fallen stack of 50 bbs or
less.

If we 3-bet, we 4-bet, and he gives us the 5-bet: IT'S ALWAYS AA or KK!!!
