Not re-raising large enough according to this video. Granted, I typically don't play as deep as 100 bbs, but the raising and check-raising sizing surprised me a little. I'd probably have raised about 3x rather than 4x in most of these spots.
Thanks Jonathan, your coaching is great. I've been watching this only for a few weeks but already it's made a big difference, from simply RFi instead of open limping. Awesome.
20:43 I don't agree to the size of the raise here. 50 Is a really small raise size that makes me pot committed and gives draws the odds to call . Given the size of the pot and the stack (only 182 left) I think I should push all-in here. If you disagree can you answer please?
if you just bluff like 10-25% of the time (maybe towards the lower), the more you might get the opponent to fold if you follow through on all 3 streets. But obviously board dependent. Sometimes you have to stop and check if you think opponents draws/flushes came in. But you can bluff more with blockers at least in these situations
Why are Pocket Aces folding more often than other paired hands/unpaired hands in the 4 bet call and reraise ranges? I would assume AA is a 100% in any preflop situation.
They're never folding pre, but once it hits the 4 bet range, especially heads up with the weakest ranges, aces don't need as much protection if any with a pot that large and are happy when an opponent bets into them on enough textures with an SPR that is so small. KK by contrast appreciates both the protection as well as not being in a tricky spot with the A high boards postflop.calling AA also protects the calling range.
Been finishing in the $ 80% of the time on BetOnline nightly big tournament and Sun big tournament. However I have 2 top 4 finishes , same w 5 n6 but can never get in the top 3 or win the tournament. Payoff difference between 4 n 1 is 3k and 21k vs 6k in the big one. What could I be doing wrong? Also I play w BB as my indicator instead of chips. Should I be rfi 2.0x or 3x or? I usually rfi 2.2x. Thanks for your input. It’s bc of your channel I’ve improved so much and honestly if I had not lost a few flips or gotten drawn out on I’d have even more big wins.

You leave me utterly confused. What Button? If the SB raises 2.5BB, then he is OOP throughout the hand. The BB player is in position. Check for yourself next time when it folds to the blinds and you’re in a HU situation
The button is also the small blind in a heads-up holdem poker game. You’re confused because you think he’s talking about a multiplayer game, instead of a 2-person table.
What do YOU think is YOUR biggest leak when playing heads-up? 🤔
Actually playing zoom heads up tournaments. Could you apply this to that type of tournaments?

Playing wayyy too tight pre-flop! Thanks for the fix JT!
I am not check raising...
The problem with heads-up is that by the time you get really good at it nobody wants to play you anymore.
? There are multiple sites and some pple on the come up will always want to play you no ?
Or Heads Up tournaments. They have to Play against you
How much tighter does the range have to be with only 25BB starting stacks instead of 100BB? And how much do the 3-bet and 4-bet sizes change?
1st example makes sense but 2nd example was so confusing.
Thanks Jonathan, your coaching is great. I've been watching this only for a few weeks but already it's made a big difference, from simply RFi instead of open limping. Awesome.
Rarely do we play HU with 100BB. I would rather learn short or mid-stack (under 40BB) HU strategy than deep stack.
True that
Thank you Jonathan! I’ve been waiting for some heads up content, this is great

In 30 plus years the only heads up no limit Holdem I have played is maybe 3-4 times in tourneys.
Rough
you obviously suck at running deep then
Odds are you are not a winning player. Rough
@@JuJu916JuJu maybe but more like not enough volume
example 3 also makes no sense
How were these ranges created? These don't seem like solver ranges.
Definitely not finding enough flop bluffs heads-up. But that's really more of a general leak for me.

Ok so thats not pre-flop, thats after its looking like there is a potential big set or 2 pair made on the flop?
Thank you very much....
More heads-up videos would be greatly appreciated. How about covering shorter stacks next time? Thank you kindly.
Fantastic video. Specially your advices in the end about the swings we accept on signing up.
Poker enjoyers be like "always prepomp a pape from a pupe but don't forget your big tree cup after the goofie gum is in position"
why gto wizard recommend limps from bb from 5,5 and above ? no offense.
10:05 WHY IS AA ONLY 0.65?????
Check raising turn … if it exists haven’t found too many(after calling flop bet in a 3 bet pot)
Great content! Thank you so much for sharing. Looking forward to seeing more content about NL Holdem HU cash poker from you!
I'm glad you liked it!

😂😂😂😂
Poor flat tire hand. What's a Jack 4? Lol
What percentage should we be flop c-betting. 6 max I´d aim for something like 70%. Tune it down HU?
really good video and your tone is funny. thanks.
so when would you cbet? with good draws and top pair+?
You the man coach💯
you sure you dont limp in the sb ?
What would be a good preflop range for the BB when the SB player limps?
ivd heard doug polk say before "defend all hands vs limp, youre simply getting too much of a good price to see the flop"
FEATURE NOT A BUG lol
nice video, senks Jonathan
LOL @4:52 😂😂😂
I would never play heads up with a rake. That's just crazy. The house is the only one who wins.
Thanks!
Thank you!!!
