Weekly Poker Hand #348: On the most recent series of High Stakes Poker, Jean Robert Bellande plays this hand perfectly against Tom Dwan in an attempt to extract maximum value from his full house. JRB does an excellent job of creating a loose & carefree image at the table. In this particular episode he is seen to be drinking very expensive wine from a huge Vegas goblet which could be one of the reasons that Dwan decides to call him down.

A common mistake I see students making is not adapting their strategy according to their stack depth. You must always remember that your range will alter depending on your own stack size as well as your opponents’ stack sizes. In this live webinar I will be teaching you how to adapt your 3 betting strategy at multiple stack depths and remind you that you must always be aware of how many big blinds you have. This is much easier online than in live play but it is just as important in a live ...

Weekly Poker Hand #347: It’s not everyday someone flops quads but when they do it can sometimes be difficult to extract maximum value. In this hand from High Stakes Poker, Brandon Steven finds himself in a multiway pot with flopped quads. Facing a bet from Tom Dwan and a call from Bryn Kenney, can he get maximum value? I’d be interested to know how the old Tom Dwan would have played this hand and if it would have been any different to how he played it here. What do you think? Salomon bet...

Weekly Poker Hand #346: Fireworks happened in this hand from the new season of High Stakes Poker as a huge $873,000 pot developed between Bryn Kenney and Rick Salomon. For this hand analysis I do something a little bit different as we play the hand from Bryn Kenney’s perspective. Let me know in the comments below if you like this style and I will aim to do some more! Salomon bets a Lamborghini on the river but can Kenney find a hero call with a set that has now turned into a bluff catcher...

Some of the biggest mistakes I see from my students come from playing in the big blind. It is a tricky position to navigate as you will more often than not be out of position. Once you have learnt the correct ranges to defend from the big blind, the next step is figuring out what to do when you face a continuation bet on the flop. Generally we want to simplify our game tree and decision making process by checking to the aggressor when we are out of position so the next logical step is ...

Weekly Poker Hand #345: In the old episodes of High Stakes Poker Tom Dwan was known to be hyper aggressive as he consistently put his opponents in tricky situations. The new Tom Dwan that we’ve seen in this season has proved to be a lot more tame as he is looking to have a more standardized GTO approach to his hands. In this hand against Rick Salomon he attempts for some thin value on the river using a small sizing, do you think it was too thin? Take my FREE Cash Game Quiz: https://poker...

A common mistake I see from my students is not finding the right spots to value bet on the river. Some people value bet far too wide and some don’t bet wide enough! It’s important to always keep in mind what your range looks like on the river but also to figure out what range of hands your opponent will have made it there as well. Today I will teach you the adjustments you need to make to consistently find solid river value bets to maximize your profits at the poker tables. Sit down, l...

Weekly Poker Hand #344: JRB takes on Rick Salomon in this hand and plays it beautifully, extracting a huge amount of value. He correctly identifies that Salomon likes to bluff and induces him on the river with a check. Will Salomon take the bait? Bellande has been known to give himself the nickname ‘Broke Living’ but after this poker hand on the new series of High Stakes Poker he should be able to afford some more luxuries in life!

Weekly Poker Hand #342: Ever since Tom Dwan has returned to playing on TV there has been a lot of discussion about the differences between ‘Old’ Tom and the ‘New’ Tom. The ‘Old’ Tom would have taken a completely different line on the river here but he does make an incredibly correct read on Rick Salomon. Would you have ever checked behind on the river in Tom’s spot? Unreal! When I first heard about this hand my response was “Tom Dwan did what?!” Check out my Valentines Day SALE – http:/...

One of the many leaks that I see in poker players is not having the ability to adapt their strategy relative to their stack size. Many players will play the same way regardless of how many big blinds they have. It is vital that you are constantly changing your ranges depending on not only your own stack size but your opponents stacks as well. In this live webinar I am going to take you through a short stack crash course and explain exactly how to navigate yourself in a tournament when you ...

Weekly Poker Hand #340: In this hand we see Rick Salomon take a pretty much perfect line with the pocket rockets during the first episode of the new High Stakes Poker. He’s up against Michael Schwimer who clearly showed he was not afraid to battle! On the river, Schwimer even said, ‘This could be a super donkey call, but I’m gonna make it’. Would you have made the call in Schwimer’s shoes? Salomon picked a perfect bet size to get paid off from the marginal hands that Schwimer would have in hi...

Books, books, books. I definitely think everyone could do a little more reading. Unfortunately, the power of poker books has been somewhat lost in this new digital age, but I still believe nothing beats a good cup of coffee with a book in hand. Watching poker movies or learning online is great, but there is just so much distraction out there that it can be difficult at times to fully immerse yourself in growth and training at a computer. In this live stream I am going to share some of my favou...
