Muito feliz com esta conquista. A primeira como Coach e logo com o título de campeão nacional. @bernasfigue5 e @somosnosPT são uma dupla incrível, duas personalidades diferentes, mas que se complementam de forma perfeita. São dois craques. Obrigado por tudo e vamos por mais!

@joaofarinha @futebolcerveja Desculpe a minha ignorância, mas o que são as casas espelho? É um mundo que percebo muito pouco , apesar de ter vontade de aprender mais .

@grobinho10 @futebolcerveja Divido a stake entre as casas espelho.

Trabalhar com apostas é bom xemais. Eu tenho que acordar 6 da manha todo sabado e domingo? Tenho. Eu posso trabalhar o mes todo, fazendo tudo certo, e mesmo assim perder dinheiro? Posso. Mas são 16:01 e eu tou deitado na rede de casa, tomando um café, com o ventilador na cara e assistindo um jogo de premier league. Tá ruim?

@joaofarinha @futebolcerveja Mas o que faz quando começam a limitar o valor das odds ou o dinheiro que pode apostar ?

@futebolcerveja No dia que isso tiver perto de acontecer eu me preocupo. Enquanto isso tou ha 8 anos no mercado e muitas outras pessoas ha mais tempo que eu.

Cash Game Mistakes: w/@UriPelegPoker When it comes to preflop strategies, what are the biggest mistakes cash game players make consistently? Uri Peleg: The first mistake I see many players making is playing static ranges. You must learn how to adjust to table conditions. Is your table loose, or really tight? Are stacks deep, or shallow? I talk much more in depth about this in my @UpswingPoker course about exploitation. But for a simple example, in very loose/passive live games, a large open size will perform significantly better than a small open size. There are just so many variables that should have a large effect on your ranges and bet sizings. If you’re not actively adjusting, you’re simply leaving money on the table. Another mistake I see people make preflop is “fighting fire with fire.” An example of this would be matching aggression with aggression. If somebody is constantly three-betting or four-betting you, it’s tempting to “take a stand” and play hard back at them.  But a more effective way to fight back would be to tighten up your ranges, and let your cards do the talking for you. Adjustments like this are often the better, if less obvious, play. I call this “fighting fire with water.” A third mistake is being too loose in multi-way pots. There is this illusion that, when lots of people are putting money in the pot, your pot odds are good. And while this is strictly true, the point of pot odds is always to compare the potential reward to your chances of winning the hand.  Unfortunately, as more people enter the pot, your chances of winning a hand go down just as dramatically as your pot odds go up. The effect is counteracted; the proper response to seeing more players in a pot is to tighten up. And this is something that most players seem to get wrong. Head Games Archives: @CardPlayerMedia

4 Mistakes Keeping You TRAPPED at LOW STAKES 1) not exploiting hard enough: don’t be afraid to cbet your entire range against people who don’t understand what a range is. don’t be afraid to 3b wider for value against people who are only 4b kk+. don’t be afraid to play unbalanced against people who don’t know what balance means. 2) playing pot limit hold ‘em: if your opponent is ridiculously sticky, you should be playing for all the money every time you have top pair good kicker +. if your opponent is a more typical low stakes villain, you should be bluffing for all the money every time you have no sdv. the overall point: the money should be going in MUCH MUCH MUCH more. figure out the type of player you’re up against, and pile. 3) having unhelpful thoughts in hands: how do i protect my hand? what is the mdf? am i balanced here? who has a range advantage? against 99% of live players - these are unhelpful thoughts. 2 questions guide every decision i make in a hand: what is their range? and what happens if (i bet small, i bet large, i check)? simple questions, better results. 4) studying the “wrong” things: look, i’m the biggest solver advocate in the world. we built and entire strategy at hungry horse based around solver work that took over a year to develop. but i also believe if a player isn’t winning 10+bb/hr - there is so much low hanging fruit to be grabbed before even worrying about solvers. address the leaks. build a repeatable thought process. ask the right questions. worry about solvers later.

@wazzo11 Very good thread! 👏🏼

How to crush online poker Using everything I’ve learned while playing and coaching for thousands of hours and millions of hands This is a much longer thread than I usually post, but the topic is too vast to short form. It's aimed at those at the earlier stages of their career, but also those stuck at low/midstakes. Caveat: This is by no means the only way to approach the game. It just so happens to work for me and my students, but there are many other players doing things their own way and it works for them. PART I How to build and improve your game vs regs. We’ll call this your “reg game”. There are four words that sum up the approach you will need. Structure. Simplicity. Accuracy. Discipline. We’ll go through them one by one: STRUCTURE This starts with preflop (using predefined ranges) and ends with river actions and sizes Until you’re ready to start playing dynamic ranges (by knowing your original ranges so well you can add/subtract combos on the fly) it’s a non-negotiable to have structure in place. This game is vast. Structure acts as a lighthouse to help you navigate the stormy waters of poker For example: We open our 29% Cut off range to preset size of 2x. We then cbet our entire range on K72 rainbow. On turns we only have 2 sizes. We overbet on X turn cards and b70 on Y turn cards etc. Our capacity to make a mistake before the river is now VERY low. Sure, they will happen but imagine if you didn’t have a preflop range and played multiple sizes on flops and turn with no idea of when to use each one. That’s exponentially more game trees that you can make mistakes in. Solution: Print out preflop ranges using GTO wizard and learn then. Simplify flop strategies where possible and limit your turn sizes. Usually 2 is all you need, and only play a single size in any given spot. River is more complicated, but you don’t need loads of sizes. Usually 2 plus a block (OOP) is enough. SIMPLICITY: This ties in with structure. You want to play poker on your terms, in your stadium where you make the rules. It’s like having the home advantage. In most situations you can avoid playing the game in parts of the game tree that you haven’t studied. You’ll have to learn those too one day, but for now be efficient as possible with your time. Knowing what your range looks like (and the bet size you want to take) in the most common spots is imperative to progressing in this game. It means you can play that spot over and over again while achieving greater accuracy each time. Practise makes perfect. Until a player gets to high stakes, overcomplicating their game (and increasing their capacity for mistakes) is probably the number one blunder I see students make. You play all your poker in spots you haven’t studied. It’s a recipe for disaster. In case you need to hear this, balancing 3 ranges perfectly on flop is (nearly) impossible for humans. Leave your ego at the door and simplify bet sizes and strategies where possible (ideally aligned with player pool incentives like overfolds). N.B You can squeeze more EV out of this strategy by learning how population reacts and adding soft exploits (without pool realising) that are closely grounded in poker theory. Solution: Simplify your game tree. Solver bets most of the time? Range bet. Solver checks most of the time? Range check. Nobody is exploiting you properly for these simplifications and in many cases you are actually taking advantage of pool weaknesses. Keep the strategic options to a minimum and learn the game trees like the back of your hand. ACCURACY You must increase your understanding of equilibriums, starting with the most common spots. This cycles back nicely to why we want to play in our own back yard. Simply put... accuracy = win rate. Your biggest threat to your winrate is yourself. The more you upload hands and run common spots, the sharper you get. Eventually, this will mean you know when to expand your ranges (and by how much) when exploitative EV is up for grabs. But that’s further down the line. For the time being spend your time on understanding the equilibriums for the most common spots. Solution: No shortcuts here. Get a GTO Wizard subscription and spend time studying the most common spots you face. Think flop nodes, especially cbets and defence vs cbets. The drill function on Wizard (try the close spot button to make it tougher) is a brilliant way to get sharper. Simplify the bet sizes to increase accuracy further. DISCIPLINE: This is a big one. Can you put in decent volume playing a structured, simplified and accurate game? Can you do this even when you’re down 5 buyins only 10 minutes into a session? Can you do this when downswinging for 3 months at a time? It's tough, but it the biggest winners can do this. They wont always play A+ game, but they wont drop much. This starts with (but not limited to) your routine, diet and how hard you work. Solution: Start with the basics. Wake up at the same time everyday. Exercise, meditate and eat well. We are in a performance arena, and you are a performer. Act like one. Keep a dairy of how you are emotionally affected at the tables. What happened that morning before you tilted? Is there a pattern? How do you tilt, is it aggression or passivity? Think about how your life might have created these issues for you in other areas. Often having awareness of your triggers is enough to dampen their effect substantially. But it takes time, work, focus and humility to accept your flaws. Mental game is a vast topic but it felt remis to not briefly mention it in here. Keep tables low while you’re upgrading your strategy or working on mental game aspects. Same with session length. Then gradually increase both as your strategy becomes more subconscious and you’re playing with greater control. Remember: 90% of your industry are not doing this stuff. Think of the edge available. Ok, some side notes that I couldn’t find a way to include above: MDA Mass Data Analysis has shown us (over an enormous sample) that our intuitions as players are not always accurate. I get told time and again that “nobody bluffs enough” in a certain spot, and when I show them the data, they are often wrong. There are spots like this all over the game tree. Get visibility of how your pool plays so you can see for yourself. Data is used in every other performance arena out there. Poker is just catching up – don’t get left behind. EXPLOITS: In almost every spot you face there is a small exploitative edge available vs regulars. BB slightly overfolds to minraise? Open the button wider. Population overfolds to small cbets? Cbet your range for small on this dry board. Pop overfolds to b150 on this turn? Take some more combos that are close and fire them as bluffs. Pool massively underbluffs this spot on river? Fold all your bluff catchers, don’t worry how good your blockers are. Find a way to take this EV without your opponents realising that you’re doing it. Or else the EV won’t be there tomorrow. CONCLUSION: Poker is fundimentally a game about EV. You're trying to steal your opponents without letting him steal yours. People focus too much on trying to steal other players EV and not enough time ensuring your not punting yours away. I couldnt include everything here. There are many other aspects to our “reg-game” so if this thread is well received I’ll follow up with a PART II. It will include some more thoughts on mental game and how important it is, game selection and some other topics. I’m even considering doing a thread on how to play vs recreationals if this is popular enough If you found this post useful please consider hitting the like button or sharing it. Congrats if you made it all the way through. Feel free to ask any questions in the comments GL out there

@fastrlife Caffeine capsules do the work ?

NEVER trust someone who doesn’t regularly drink coffee (caffeine): - Coffee drinkers have a lower risk of ALL cause mortality - Coffee blunts hunger (allows you to fast deeper into the day = get leaner) - Coffee drastically enhances productivity - Coffee drinkers live longer

Poker Wisdom: Johnnie 'Vibes.' What are the biggest leaks you see from most opponents? The number one leak that I see amongst the population is playing too passively, especially from late position. In 2021 the majority of preflop situations have been solved through the mainstream accessibility of simulation software. Yet if you handed the preflop answers to the majority of players they would ignore the advice and do what they want. Granted, if they listened to the preflop strategy perfectly they would often be put in uncomfortable spots post flop. But the simple truth is that there’s no growth inside your comfort zone. Solvers in general call for raising first in from late position with wide ranges and most players aren’t willing to do this. The second thing that seems obvious but is more nuanced, is tilt control. So often people are convinced that they aren’t tilting, when in actuality there are subtle changes to their strategy. For example, after experiencing a tough beat you may play a nut flush draw more aggressively. Sure, this isn’t classic tilt because you have great equity, but your willingness to embrace variance has changed. Lastly, people have a very difficult time leaving the table when down (I’ve had this issue in the past.) We would rather sit and be miserable in a tough session, then leave and book a loss. Intellectually we know it’s one long session but for some reason we feel the need to try and climb back to even while being miserable at the table. One hack I’ve done to help me leave tough sessions is to track the stat of average win and average loss. I know when my average loss is 2x my average win I’m doing a terrible job of leaving while being down. When I have the discipline to book a small loss, I’ll take a peek at how much my average loss drops and find some satisfaction that the number has decreased. @JohnnieVibes from Head Games: @CardPlayerMedia

@briangoodbeat On the river i prefer call over raise.

@briangoodbeat I like jam on the flop. When you shove river you represent something like TT and maybe AK AQ of spades. It is not easy to make villain fold.
