  • What about if you see 3 hearts on the flop, and you hold King(d) King(s) - would you still play to the end with your cowboys? What about another heart on the turn, against a better in position?

    poor advice to tell amateurs to not lay down pocket pairs situationally.

  • Strong, good advice buddy.

  • Hello there! Have you ever read the ebook How to Shake the Online Poker Money Tree ? I got some very useful tricks from it and now can play like a pro and win all the time now with no nervousness.

  • @AwesomeSuperbaws You're completely wrong. With KK or AA you want to get all your chips in pre-flop to avoid someone getting a lucky flop. If you shove with AA and someone calls, they're mostly likely to call with something around AQ+, or QQ+. Against such premium hands, AA is a massive favourite: unless a lower pocket pair hits trips (1/5), they're almost drawing dead, especially if their top card is an A .

  • I was playing with a woman who had been dealt A-A three times, she played them everytime, and lost twice with them, I hate A-A. Also Ace King high is a very dangerous hand to play, you can lose alot of chips with this hand. Don't commit like this numpty says.

  • this fucker is talking shite!!!!!!

  • why is this guy giving advice if he only played in one free tournament? Shouldn't they get an expert instead of an amateur?

  • So what, in the other video he insists on going all-in pre flop with queens. Sounded bonehead to me when I heard it. This sounds much better, raise big blind and see what others do, possibly mucking the ladies.

    Same guy, different strategies to play queens, choose how to play it bro
