Tactical Tuesday #147: Breaking Down Community Hands on the PokerCoaching.com YouTube Channel! Oct 18, 2023

Show notes

As you may have learned from our announcement in the CPG online community, Greatness Village (free to join at greatnessvillage.com!), Coach Brad & Jon Chai took the show on the digital road this week, all the way over to the PokerCoaching.com YouTube channel!
In anticipation of the PokerCoaching.com 6-Max Cash course that Brad has contributed to, the boys were invited to do a livestreamed Tactical Tuesday in which they reviewed hands submitted by PokerCoaching.com community members. It's an action packed hour, and the live chat kept them on their toes for the duration.
What's that we said about an upcoming 6-Max Masterclass? You can get a sneak preview here:
https://pokercoaching.com/coachbradpeek
And once the course goes live in the very near future, you can check it out here:
https://pokercoaching.com/coachbradcourse
As many of you already know, Coach Brad has been a longtime contributor to the PokerCoaching content archives, and we're thrilled to see the unveiling of the new course when it drops! Be sure to check out the sneak peak above!
So many thanks to the PokerCoaching crew for hosting the Tactical Tuesday team, and we look forward to doing it again!

Alright, now that we've gotten all of that boring, responsible, winrate-determining preflop nonsense out of the way last week, it's time to give the people what they want:
I'm tallking about SEXY ACES, baby! Three times in one show! *RIC FLAIR WOOOOOO!.wav*
But we didn't come here to "win a small pot" with pocket aces, which is what normally happens. Jon's decided to get TRICKY WIT IT and play them a bit unorthodox. Nothing bad ever happens when you eff around in poker... right? We'll never "find out", right?
There's only one way to know for sure. Let's get into Tricky Tuesday 146!

Tactical Tuesday #145: A Preflop Poker Masterclass... Okay, It's Only 3 Hands But Still Pure Gold Oct 03, 2023

Show notes

Want a free poker course from CPG? Just scroll down below to get it!
Normally each Tuesday, our poker boys focus on hands with a lot of postflop fireworks across all three streets, since those naturally make for the most interesting discussions on Tactical Tuesday. But all this time, they've basically been lying to you and your family about one simple rule of poker. And they're ready to finally confess this week by admitting that preflop decisions are the most important part of the game.
Preflop problems become postflop problems; it's that simple. But how do we make the best preflop decisions to make sure we're entering every pot we play with the highest likely range and equity advantage? We're cutting through the lies and propoganda on Tactical Tuesday 145!

It doesn't happen often, but when it does, you best be ready for it with your sharpest harpoon in hand. We're talking about WHALE HUNTING.

How should you adjust your strategy to navigate these crowded waters? Join us on a high seas tactical adventure as we track the whale and go in for the kill! It's Tactical Tuesday 141.

Tactical Tuesday #140: Trapping With Pocket Aces & Kings (Guaranteed To Never Backfire*) *Not a Guarantee Aug 29, 2023

Show notes

Aces and Kings are pretty easy to play preflop... right? Just rip it in and hope villain has something to stack off with. But wait... what does villain do with their bluffs and light 3-bets then? Oh right, they just fold and you never get their stack.
Jon's come a long way since pre-COVID and always 5-bet jamming Aces preflop, and he's added some pretty ingenious traps to his arsenal. As we see today, the random degenerate player pool of Ignition is only so happy to oblige.
Coach Brad is along for yet another rollercoaster ride where so many more than 100 bigs are going in the middle. Does he approve? Or do we need to reset the "Days Without Incident" counter back to zero? Join us for Tactical Tuesday 140, now with power cubes in Brad's background (podcast people are missing out)!

Tactical Tuesday #139: "What's The Best Way To Get All The Money In?" High SPR Value Betting in Poker Aug 22, 2023

Show notes

We've done value betting episodes before, but his one is a bit different. This week we examine the spots where you have thick value on the river, but there's just one problem... the SPR is pretty high and it's difficult to see how you can pile it all in and get called.
So what's the best way to get all the money in and get maximum value when you have nutted hands on the river? Spoiler alert: it's not as easy as dialing it up to "all-in".
Coach Brad is here to see what poker prodigy Jon Chai decided to do in a few of these spots in his recent poker travels. Welcome to Tactical Tuesday 139.

Tactical Tuesday #138 - The Bet/Fold & Raise/Fold Poker Instruction Manual (YMMV) Aug 15, 2023

Show notes

The pain train is right on schedule this week, as Jon digs... not very deep in the database to find a few hands that illuminate an important topic in poker: how to bet/fold and raise/fold.
It's not a difficult concept to understand... you think you can take down the pot with a bet or a raise, but, if the villain should somehow not fall for our lies and shenanigans, you've got to know the jig is up and not chase good money after bad.
But when exactly are these scenarios, and just because villain doesn't kick rocks like we want them to, does that always mean we're checking or folding to further action?
Jon's pulled up some of his strongest hands (so naturally one of them is 8 high) to walk us through his thought process on this intriguing topic. Welcome to Tactical Tuesday 138. It's free but tips are welcomed. Not sure where the jar is tho.
