Hey all!  It’s been a long time since I’ve done a video so I did a 4-tabling session at 100NL on  Poker Stars for a bit of fun.  In this video I discuss how I’ve been playing these games which includes a premium on blind stealing.  Definitely leave me some comments here!

In poker, as in many things it in life, it is easy to take a concept and to apply it incorrectly. This can mean many things. This can mean playing too many hands on the button because positional advantage is huge. It can mean playing too many hands because you think you can “make up for it” postflop. It can mean playing too aggressively in certain situations. A poker concept that has spun violently out of control is playing in such a way that a good opponent cannot exploit you.

Where this concept is mostly applied is towards bet sizing. Many believe that if you vary your bet sizing with the strength of your hand that you opponents will be able to figure out what your hand is and take advantage of the accuracy of the range that they can assign to you. This is a fine argument if it is taken for just that. Read more about this overemphasized concept
