to me, the most valuable part of these videos might be to see you take sick beat, after sick beat and just be emotionally unaffected. Really puts one's own "bad luck" in perspective to see a real pro deal with it like a real pro. Thanks for these videos!
love all the shit u doin on poker explainations @tonkaaaaa i think the playstyles and adjustments are everytime nice topics in poker and there are kinda endless theory. thank you parker for your pokerstreamin and stuff. wish u the best from da buttom of my heart brah.
Hey Tonka, can you please discuss opening ranges next time (from every position preferably), and/or may be some calling ranges pre flop. Great vids man!!
I love these strategy videos, I watch all of them when they come out. You're obviously super knowledgeable, is there any specific resource you used to learn over the years? Training sites, books, etc? Or does it just come with a ton of volume and experience?
Could you do a strategy for 6max Turbo? Like bubble play with 20bbs each between 3 players and when you have the HUGE chiplead on bubble and also when u have the smallest on bubble
Is Tonka explaining how his *current opponent* would play from big blind vs small blind w/ KQs? I did not quite get his explanation of KQ dominating Ax, 7xs, etc.
Taking into account he then shut down (even when he rivered trips :0) It's still going to be profitable to call 2nd pair and try and improve or bluff scare cards
Yes but also draws bet the flop big. Still overall its so hard to get pair that folding middle pair is kind of impossible without amazing reads about specific player.
Not betting turn with TJ is horrible for villain because there is so many draws out there, also checking river is super weird due to big blind extremely often having middle or bottom pair and if villain is betting them it will be for small sizing. Since villain is bettor he has weak hands he wants to bluff with and thus value betting and bluffing with big sizing works way better with that river card. It is also worth remembering that 99% of poker professionals and 99,99 of all player population are essentially recreational players in that specific stake and game should they play it so assuming that recreational player is "your local casino rec" is very wrong.
I'm surprised that you say your opponents will call more at higher buy ins. It's been my experience that a min raise at low level buy ins ( $5 - $15 ) will hardly ever result in a fold. But I've never played high stakes so what do I know. Good vids always.
I think what he meant is, at a lower buy in you dont mind going post flop IP if they do call as the villians on average will be less competent post flop
checking a players stats on pokerstars to see if they are a good player is absolutely ridiculous. Personaly i think tonka is maybe a half decent player, but in no way a pro online. Probably a pro live. And definitely a pro streamer, i enjoy his video's very much cos of his personality. He gets lucky online alot when he calls all ins in bountys. And he cashes so much cos he plays the big buy ins, with alot smaller fields with hardly any donkeys. Im guessing if he played the low buy in tourneys hed have terrible results just like the rest of us. He also has the freedom of not risking his own money in tournaments which makes his decisions even easier at big moments.
This comment actually makes no sense. He's a very good player and you should be able to see this. Also, the same proportion are paid...... and there are a lot of low stakes winners... I don't even know what to say
Always when its 4 handed in 6 max hypers, it's bingo time, strategy only lasts about 5 to 10 hands. Think its stupid doing a strategy video for these types of sitngos mayte. To be honest strategy on all games at stars is kind of pointless, your either chosen to get lucky and win or chosen to lose lose lose. Parker is one of the chosen ones.
stars isn't rigged you are just fucking terrible at poker get a god damn grip dude. You must suck ass at life if everytime you are bad at something you twist it around in someway so it's not your fault. Maybe actually put in hundreds or thousands of hours spent studying poker at then you'll win
Dude it's called variance, not rigged. I'd love to see your poker graph over a sample of million hands and then let an expert to analyse your database and point out the leaks. You would pretty quickly go from ''rigged'' to being stupid.

Exactly what I wanted to comment :^)
Yes, the condition of being "unaffected" by losing money is called being *rich*
@@trenziedapug1428 he is far from rich. He is living solid but not rich
gotta say, your content is probably the most consistently entertaining poker related stuff on youtube at the moment! really enjoying it! keep it up!

Hey Tonka, can you please discuss opening ranges next time (from every position preferably), and/or may be some calling ranges pre flop. Great vids man!!
Dennis van der Heijden agreed! And Tonka, same request for which hands to three-bet from where pre. Cheers Tonka. Love your videoes 💪

Staislaus he means its better for him to have kq against speculative hands like 87 jq 89 68 ect than having a2 a3 a4
Has anyone ever pointed out your doppelganger in American Pie - Book of Love?? - Brandon Hardesty? I thought it was you the whole film :o

84o vs JTs... from my experience, rec players often pot the flop with vulnerable top pair hands
Taking into account he then shut down (even when he rivered trips :0) It's still going to be profitable to call 2nd pair and try and improve or bluff scare cards

jim smith i think at higher BI they def bbway more and r more competent post flop.....
I think what he meant is, at a lower buy in you dont mind going post flop IP if they do call as the villians on average will be less competent post flop
I miss the days of the supernova

you literally have no idea what you are talking about
This comment actually makes no sense. He's a very good player and you should be able to see this. Also, the same proportion are paid...... and there are a lot of low stakes winners... I don't even know what to say
Lelianna Lee in no way is parker a millionaire lol, not even close
Nick Ball lets see him cash in a 5 to 20 dollar mtt with over 5k players then
Bag Dad name one part of my comment where i am wrong
Last
why don't you tell everybody how to play make the tables even harder. Great idea
Still not sure how you can be great at a game that has sooo much luck involved.
Because the luck factor filters out in the long run.

marking someone as a 'chosen one' immediately tags you as a bad plaer .. true
Oh look I found another ridiculous comment. You're just terrible at this whole strategy thing.
Nick Ball you're literally too dumb to abuse
