THANK you for 1 tabling. I’ve watched so many play and explains where the player is playing “only” 4 tables. I understand that 4 tables or 2 or whatever isn’t very many once you have a solid winning strategy down pat and just need volume. I multi table when I play. But when I’m watching a play & explain the whole point is I’m watching the video bc I _don’t_ know what I should do near 100% of the time. And it really just is so hard to follow 4 different tables and keep in my head all the action of all 4 (since the person making the video will often direct your attention to any of the 4 tables at any point). These kinds of things are much better as just single tables
@@CarrotCornerPoker yeah if anything it makes it so much easier to label/take notes on exploitable players. I do multi table (not that much) but I like to spend about 1/3 of my time at least single tabling just so I can focus on the individual people in my pool. A lot of the money I make is just from identifying maniacs and calling stations.
This is an excellent format and i normally dont comment - one table and rant about one particular aspect such as protocol thought process is really good - can't believe the content doesnt get huge views - thanks Pete
I gave this a shot today. I struggled with it as there was a lot of talk about frequencies in this video that you don't normally focus on. It was very helpful to slow down the pace and play two tables, really thinking through each spot but it did give me a bit of like uncertainty over whether there were other options available other than pile money in with our value hand and slow down when we can't say we're betting for value. Really good video though and do like this format with little homeworks! :)
I really love this format. Stellar delivery and just how you are holding people accountable with self awareness is aces! Your edge is your work ethic, your edge is your attained wisdom, why keep the tools collecting dust by mindlessly auto-piloting? Thank you for this!
Pete gives great exploitative advice too. E.g. there's lots of hero calls in his videos that I'd never make. I definitely feel that I learn a lot by watching him
Hey Pete, this is a good format; four tables is a bit much. One topic I would like to see is: How you assign the player type based on the player's actions. Is Grade-E different from Cash Injection, and will it be included in the CPS? Cheers and good luck with the golf lessons. I suggest searching for Robin Williams's golf routine on YT.
Hey Pete. I would like to buy your ranges but I’m only really interested if I can get the solves (you used simple right?) to see the ev. I remember you saying this was possible at some point. Is that still the case?
Hello Peter. Been enjoying the TH-cam content lately. Great as always. I stopped playing but enjoying watching poker streams. Hope you are well. Jim B. USA
Really enjoy the format! Recently started a new in game routine that this is similar to. I try to always think “what do I think the equilibrium mixing between” (I.e has the exact same EV at equilibrium) followed by “What is the pure play in practice based on the MDA (or HUD data) I have”. The goal is to almost never RNG and assuming there’s more or less always a highest EV line in any given situation. Maybe like preflop BvB where you have to sometimes 3B something like K6o I’ll mix. But honestly you could just pick a few of your favorite 3b bluff hands in that range and pure them so that you get roughly the right amount of weak hands in that range. Possibly it’s even the case that some exact combos do better as calls and some as bluffs and you should pure them accordingly. I admit that’s hard to figure out though and might not be worth the effort. Super frequent stuff like flop cbet BUvsBB SRP might be fine to mix too. But honestly think it’s sub optimal in practice. Even if your opponents collected 10’s of thousands of hands on you it, would likely be hard to notice anyway. We’d be adjusting differently vs different sub categories of players anyway and data would merge towards normal. Also, if your opponent is the type of player that is very good and tries to exploit you it might very well be the case that your over all stat is not representative of how you play vs him, assuming it’s not a HU challenge. Sorry for long post. Couldn’t help myself to nerd in on the topic 😂
I wonder if there’s soon or ever gonna be an AI/solver hybrid where you can give it all the stats available on your pool, let it approximate the node lock for every node in the game tree and produce a solver output for what the true optimal strategy is. Basically have the AI figure out some sort of semi clairvoyance of your opponent. More or less the same process as a human just orders of magnitudes more powerful. What many often forget and what’s not mentioned a lot is that equilibrium is a product of max exploitation. When you look at the solver output the strategy is maximally exploiting the opponent by being clairvoyant to that strategy. The thing though is that the opponent does the exact same thing and there’s no exploits left in the end (the final output we see). If the solver knew it was up against something different and what that was in detail, everything would look way different. Even in the most theoretically accurate games played by humans.
So at 4:00 when you say it’s a mistake to dive into opponents range, you just means it’s a mistake to dive into your perception of their range in practice and it’s still OK to dive into their theoretical range first right?
I think it’s a mistake to dive too deeply and lost combos exhaustively while losing touch with the shape and distribution of the range. I think we can bypass a lot of this by learning theory - what ranges are roughly meant to look like and what options we have before looking for exploitative differences between the theory we’ve learned and the real world.
I applied your reccomendation Pete, now I lost my house and my family is now suffering due to your inexperienced advice. I'll go back to playing with my strategy, if I have top pair I Bet because I have top pair !!! leave me and my family alone in the future
@@pokerandphilosophy8328 oh wow thanks for pointing that out otherwise I would’ve never known that somebody saying they lost their house and family after following advice from a video posted 2 hours ago was not true😂😭
Hey Pete, min 8 JJ7. Could u go deeper into your thought process? This inside cards 8,9 are probably the worst cards for your range. You folded out almost all air with your flop bet and op should have much more Tripps+. Could we at least consider checking for this reasons? Guess betting frequency should be very low, how do u avoid betting way to much or way to equity driven? Small raise looks extremely ugly to me. First i would expect playerpool to either jam or call/fold weaker Trips and Flushdraws, second u block a high flushdraws. Enough reasons to make an exploitiv bet/fold?^^
I think I agree this sizing is pretty underbluffed but I think we still call AJ as it has value beater properties and redraw vs straights and even some redraw vs 88 etc. I think folding is too big of a deviation though it’s certainly not a spot we’re happy about. As for checking turn, yeah I think it’s a fine option. That said we should still have a betting range of some sort here.
Hi Pete. I filled out the contact form on your site regarding signing up for part 1 of the poker school a good few days ago, but not heard back. Can you get someone to look at it for me please. Thanks. Great content by the way.
I love your free videos because you actually shows theoretically correct bad plays but why do you focus on Zooms? Like with HUD and non-Zoom the first hand has so many theoretical ramifications for new players, I don't understand why you would use Zoom in that context.
11:22 Q is never a good turn for you range. Should be a pure check for KT and basically a range check on that Q turn. You can definitely deviated from theory if you had a straight on turn and always bet but not KT.
I liked this one a lot actually. It's an easy way to get familiar with the theoretic options in several common spots!
Thanks glad you liked it!

I really enjoyed this format. A single table was great for this old man. Homework completed. Confirmed that I still hate the sound of my own voice.
Good format, easy to follow and very useful.
I like this format! Please make more.
Really great video can't wait for the next episode in the series!
It’s about live poker and my hated of it.
the unfortunate/fortunate had me cracking up. you literally teach poker. and the editor put the video effect. CLASS
I guess we’re a good team sometimes.
Such a simple step that helped loads
this video is so good for people to learn the "language"" of poker strategy. good stuff pete
I agree. I think some degree of accurate universal language is helpful for leaning the game.
New to the channel. I really like this format. Like most I dont feel I am as strong in theory as I should be. Great video.
Thanks for commenting and welcome to the gang!
Pete gives great exploitative advice too. E.g. there's lots of hero calls in his videos that I'd never make. I definitely feel that I learn a lot by watching him
Great format love it! off to play
I really needed this, I play micros on acr with very low time banks and constantly start hand reading too early running out of time.
Yep and you never get to the verdict because the thought process was too zoomed in. We need that right level of specificity.
Nothing like a good poker rant!
