Crush & Move-Up: Coaching Thread with Asimos

asimos · 2015-12-08T20:40:58Z

Hello guys. I decided to summarize /discuss some of the concepts I introduced in the first two live sessions. This guide is far from complete, but I think it can be helpful in the direction of crushing the micros. * I ll might update it in the future. Feel free to ask any questions regarding poker strategy in general or specific plays presented in live sessions. :f_drink: My basic philosophy regarding poker is based on the following: [1] I DON'T LIKE THE RULES, SO I WILL USE MY OWN RULES [2] I WANT TO PLAY SIMPLE FOR ME.... BUT NOT SIMPLE FOR MY OPPONENTS [3] I WILL HAVE FUN AND I WILL WIN FUN BC I ENJOY POKER... WIN BECAUSE I WORK HARDER THAN MY OPPONENTS FUN BC I WIN AND I WIN BC I HAVE FUN In particular, in micro stakes (<= 25nl) I suggest the following (*but also applicable higher some of them): 1) Try to not play blindly according to other people's guidelines / charts etc (they are ok but not optimal for every single spot). Develop your own game plan / strategy depending on the leaks of your opponents but also on your strengths / weaknesses as a player. Know your self, learn your opponents. 2) Game plan should be simple for you, but putting same time difficulties to Villains. Your strategy shouldn't be very obvious to others, but should be very clear to yourself. 3) Bet for value big / play your goods fast --- fold vs aggression --- bluff regs when they show weaknesses. 4) Trust the tells of your opponents, they are going to give out their holdings most of the times. 5) Do not care about what you rep (in most spots), or if you are balanced etc, since people do not pay enough attention. 6) DO NOT LEVEL YOURSELF. Play mostly straightforward, your opponents will make enough mistakes...trust them!!! For limits >= 50nl zoom: 1) Know your ranges and how to defend them [DEFENCE]. 2) Start studying the regs... they still have tones of leaks !!! [ATTACK] 3) Learn how to play 3bet pots / especially oop. 4) Have a good reason to make a move (i.e. 3bet preflop, x/r post flop etc). Don't play randomly, but based on a game plan constructed out of the tables. :f_drink: 5) Develop more than one strategies / have more than one weapons in your repertorie... confuse your opponents. 6) Exploit the fish as usual --- global constant.:f_love::f_love::f_love:
