My game is getting so much better. Not only because of JL, but those of us who put in the time to get better, usually do
Live is waaaaayyyyyyyy softer than online forsure
Is Indica or Sativa best for tournament play?
Sativa...
Haha great question try not to fall asleep
Sativa/hybrid.
Here's the thing. If you play 1/2-2/5 range the HH jackpot makes the bad players play way worse than normal. I always played specifically 1/2 if they had a good HH jackpot bc some degen is gonna put in $100 to try to hit a runner runner straight flush draw and fold when they miss. It was absolutely magical. Some of the loosest bingo tables I've ever played. I gladly payed the extra dollar.
100% Most of the card rooms near where I play have high hand jackpots. You are spot on. There are two games going on. One is poker, one is who hits the board with quads or straight flushes. When you figure out who's playing what it's like printing money. It doesn't hurt when you hit the high handle which I have done three out of the last five trips. For the people who bemoan the promotional drop, they just don't get it. There is one card room that has a bad beat jackpot that's over $200,000. Qualifying hand is quads. That will probably go to 300 or $400,000 before it's hit. It gets headlines but you have to be an idiot to go play there specifically for that reason. And there's plenty of them!
The majority of players are suckers, sheep, and some addicts, who will all take whatever the poker room wants to charge them rather than using their collective power to force poker room to take only a fair and reasonable rake. Then rooms take say $1 for bad beat jackpot and $1 for promos like seat drawings. All of which is taxable, so players give their money only to have it given back to a small few but who also now have to pay state and fed taxes.
Back when I played a lot more than I do now, I did the math on how many bad beat drops I paid. I estimated that in a few years as a regular rec player I had paid $8K in $1 drops based on some assumptions around hours played and number of pots won per hour. I was a marginally losing player who could have been a marginally winning player without just the bad beat drop. Never did catch a piece of a bad beat.
If I am a Premium member, does it cover the concepts in your books as well, or do I need the books also?
The training in PokerCoaching Premium is more in-depth and advanced than my books. It will cover all of the topics that are covered in my books.
The House is beating the game...
A little coffee and an hour drive to the card room? LFG
Beautiful cash how to play against drunks ?
If the dealer is paying attention and controlling the table, I tip well. If the dealer is talking , looking elsewhere, etc…, I don’t tip sh!t
High hands really do mess with the games.
The old free computer and buy-in scam.
Thats such a common story in the Poker world. I have heard several others with the same story. Bought my buddy a laptop so they can get in on online poker, promised to pay me back... they never did either thing they said they would and kinda just stopped coming around. 😂
Its why I don't lend money to friends. My buddy in college bunmed 100 bucks, said they would get me back their nexr check. The next check was small and bills were due so they said 2 weeks... and then they stopped coming around. It wasn't cus he tried to rip me off, he said he felt bad and didn't wanna hang out til he could pay me cus it was awkward and he felt like a jerk.
But then he also bought a Sega Dreamcast and some games, and had money for the bar before paying me back... that was the awkward part.
So I broke his thumbs.
Nah JK... I got it back way later. With an extra 20 for the trouble. I never really pressed the issue. My GF was real loud about it cus she loved gossip, so the pressure was still there 😂
Tip your dealers or you won’t have dealers and won’t have a game.
I agree. Too bad most game operators do not value the dealers.
@@PokerCoaching I agree. I’m a part time dealer and it’s opened my eyes. I just bought the 3 books mentioned in this video to start working on my cash game! I want to transition to making money part time as a dealer and earn it as a player. I’m not a winning player yet and I need to start earning around $30 an hour. We really only have 1-2 in Oklahoma.
Love the content.
Where u deal/ play in Oklahoma?
Very well spoken little fella. A little Little. lol (Oohh someone had to say it)
you get a lot of rest when you're playin in big tourneys..
James and I have the same birthday! Christmas Eve baby!
a repeat goes to show its lasting value
Some people seem to be being critical of Jonathan for 'only' tipping a dollar for each hand he wins. Bart Hanson has been far more explicit about this. Tips , rake and other casino costs can wreck a pro players win rate. If you're an amateur and you feel like treating the dealers, noone is stopping you BUT just add up howany pots you win a year in a casino and subtract anything over a $ from your win rate and you'll likely not make much as a pro.
Awesome video, THANK YOU.
I agree a buck is enough for a tip
Yea, rake is illegal in Texas and I am glade to pay $12hr for a $2/$5 cash seat. No rake!!
Capuchino so cute 😍
thanks for the video mang
You bet
I find it difficult to adjust to a fishy 1/2 game after regularly playing 2/5, 5/5 and 5/5/10 with tables full of regs. It takes me a couple of hours sometimes. It’s a bad idea to go down I. Stakes, bc it dumbs down your game.
Glad to hear you think Live Cash Games is still pretty relevant as I have it!
Which are better bounty tournament or normal tournaments
I'm not sure what you mean by better, they are just different.
Jonathan Little - Poker Coaching May I put the question this way : Considering the bounties you could win , playing bounty tournaments makes lower variance ?
You should tip the dealer like 10% because it's kind of like Christmas when you give a bad.
That's my opinion.
That's coming from a dealer's point of view.
It's a lot of fun players that are playing the games that are taking for a jackpot. Celebrity a little throw some money.
You mean in general or with a bad beat?
Your son speaks better french than I do! hahaha
2.5-5% on bad beat is customary, Mr. Little. Why u hate dealers.
Teach Berkey Capitalism.
He is uninformed.
Isn't he pro capitalism? I can't remember.
I’m sure you’ll tip if the waitress brings you a drink but not a slot attendant if she brings you 3,000. You have money, be kind to someone maybe a dealer.
Just lost $225 at 1/2. I THINK I am a decent enough player but can a good player lose that much at $225 or is that something that should NEVER happen?
Um yes its easy, get AA all in pre flop vs QQ and queen comes on flop, u lose $200. Reload and pay blonds for a while, lose a small pot.
that's just over one buy-in right?
in no-limit a 10 buy-in downswing is super standard
Are you serious? 225$ is nothing bro. You can loose way over 1000$ and its super standart for a winning player
Even if you’re getting the money in good, you can lose as much as you’re willing to burn in a single session at any stakes. But poker is a long term game, so you can’t think in terms of “one bad session.” Gotta keep learning and playing
If you are a good player, you'll know more about variance. The fact you worry losing a buyin means you're probably missing a few things about what being a good player involves.
so cute
Home game with rake? Gtfo
I personally rarely tip for winning a hand. But I do tip dealers who are quick, clear, communicative, get their levels of banter just right.
I do tip waiters / waitresses, helps with quick service and as the drinks are free I am happy to pay less than I would in a pub / Starbucks.
I'm guessing you have more than a quarter million saved for retirement and are generally a miser
@@SteveRay911 Afraid not on both counts, probably just a different culture.
@@liamhalliday8437 keep hording that money. Thats not cultural. Thats a disease. A common one at that.
@@SteveRay911 lol, of all my comments to trigger somebody, I didn't think not tipping somebody for doing their job averagely would be it.
But your right to be offended by it, I suppose.
SteveRay911 i play with several millionaires several days per week. They aren’t huge tippers but are great people. They do tip, mind you but not nearly what I do with far less money. They don’t throw money away. That’s why they’re millionaires.

I want to sit with the Bellagio nits and press tiny edges for thousands of hours! I want to wander in the desert and become isolated and depressed! This would make me a professional and then I would have a nice car at age 45, but no family and a terrible view of human nature and crippling mental illness. Eyes on the prize!
There are plenty of full-time professional players who work very hard, put in lots of volume, and enjoy time with family/find balance their life.
@@PokerCoaching I think this is true, but at the same time, I've yet to meet or hear from a successful pro who didn't, at some point, take a deep and somewhat obsessive dive into the game, usually involving some personal emotional crucible, often a deep downswing or an excruciating failure (busting a big tournament, failing in Vegas and having to move back home, getting stacked by teddy kgb for your entire roll, etc.) For some it was Macau, for others years of online grinding, and for you, maybe it was the Bellagio nits. Poker is kind of an empty mathematical zero sum void that just goes on forever until the game is replaced by better ones, and us humans struggle to assign meaning and narrative in this framework. If there isn't necessarily a crucible or a coming of age or a test, perhaps we like to invent or incite those things? Like maybe there's some guy whose graph is just a straight upward gentle line and he never stabbed himself while losing at online poker just to see what it would be like to be hospitalized. And more power to him.
I'm just saying really that for me, what looks and feels like conquering my own demons is sitting in a room with eight of the men I'm terrified of becoming, and coming out the other side; making money in a place designed to take it from you, being hopeful and generous in a place designed to make you selfish and impulsive, and feeling strong and solid in a desert that's hostile to human life. If I did that I would feel like I didn't have to prove anything else and I could set my mind, now at peace, to humanity's serious challenges, specifically the erosion of our republic and the destruction of the natural world.
@@gregg2828 also merry Christmas lol
@@hymnofashes And then the Chupacabra eats you as you wander the desert, proving you were right all along.
@@thisismagacountry1318 are you a Bellagio nit? Clean your lobster, bucko, I'm coming for your stack.
Listened to you for years and bought many of your audiobooks. Was a fan until I heard your opinion on tipping.
Sorry, but I think people should be paid well, which is why I drastically over-tip. Why do you think people should not be paid a livable wage?
@@PokerCoaching $1 a winning hand is drastically over tipping? In this video you said tipping is unnecessary and discouraged it to your audience. Especially if someone was to win a Monte Carlo or a high hand...
I hope you have changed your opinion since this video. Many people depend on tips to live and feed their family and for you to sugest people not tip is cruel IMO.
@@movingthroughaddiction you completely missed his point 👍
lol, complains about the rake being too high on one hand, yet also refuses to tip dealer when you win a high-hand or a bonus....
What's the issue with this?
Amazing content 👏
