Check out the written version of this video here: upswingpoker.com/monotone-flops-kanu7/ Parts 2, 3, and 4 of this video series will be released on Friday over the course of the next month. Kanu7's cash game course is scheduled for a January 2020 release. The price will be $999 for approximately 35 hours of content.
Will we get to see the infamous Kanu7 vs Doug Polk 100k hands HU 25/50 rematch that Doug alluded to desiring in one of his videos where Kanu was pretty much the gatekeeper for Doug to get into high stakes?
Dumbo349 Iirc, the story goes that just when Doug got good enough to be really dangerous, Kanu quit him with perfect timing. Game selection and BRM like a boss.
i guess Im randomly asking but does anyone know of a method to get back into an instagram account..? I somehow lost my login password. I would appreciate any help you can offer me.
Could you give us your definition of "high disconnected", "high connected" etc boards? Disconnected means no draws? Connected means straight possible or any draw possible?
7:30 how do you have a wider range then red baron. you say you would have 25s but he wont have A3o? he wont have 36s? isnt BTN opening range wider then BB calling range?
Yes I believe so. I'm more intermediate so I don't know for sure, but my understanding is that both bluffs and value will be sized down on monotone flops.
Great content! Good examples ,but it is a little difficult to follow when speaking fast and the microphone could have some more depth. The graphics are to little on the phone or tablet.
Why do you think 50% cbet,50% check is a simplication, it's really not that different than 47.5% cbet etc, anyway in game we're playing hands, and deciding between bet/check/raise with our hand, so if there's a clear boundary, it's a simplication, if it's not, then it's not a simplication. So if it's a pure strategy(like range bet),then it automatically satisfy the previous condition. If it's a mixed strategy, then we need to know where the boundary is, if the boundary is very clear, then it's a simplication.Why everyone think 50% cbet,50% check is a simplication?Just because the percentage number looks good? If a 47.779% cbet has a clear boundary, then it's a simplication.I'm interested in your course, but must state this before buy.
I think it's important to know 2 things. Firstly what your overall strategy should look like, and secondly how to play individual hands within that strategy. In the course I use words to describe the overall strategy because it will be easier to remember if I say "Bet a mid frequency on this flop type" than it will be to remember if I say "bet 47.5% on this flop type". For one situation it may sound like both are relatively equally easy to remember but when you are looking at a lot of situations, remembering a ton of numbers becomes very difficult. In most spots I spend a bunch of time talking about these overall strategies and then a bunch of time going over some examples which teach how to play individual hands. You are certainly correct that you need to know how to play your actual hand, just the overall strategy is not enough. I also think though, that just trying to teach how to play individual hands would mean it's very hard to implement, because you're having to remember how to play many different hands in many different spots and if you forget anything you have no baseline to drop back to. If you know your overall bet frequency should be low in some spot then you'll find it much easier to estimate how often to bet your top pair mid kicker than if you had no overall strategy, since how often you should bet a hand of that strength would be so different depending what your overall bet frequency is..
Always respect for playing those stakes. But the betsizing reasons are flat out wrong. Here's a proof: AK9 two tone -- 1.8x pot, tick! AK9 rainbow -- the btn has those same top of range advantages but should not bet 1.8x pot. Therefore the top of range advantages do not affect betsizing on rainbow flops. Therefore this betsizing heuristic is false. QED.
Drier flops require smaller bets in general. This was a single hand example, with probably mixed strat on frequencies of bet sizes. The good thing about the two-tone board is that you can add in decent equity semi bluff hands, so you can then size up your value in line with that.
Kanu did retire from playing full-time in late 2016, but he retired at the top and is extremely knowledgeable about the game. Our team has no doubts that he will bring huge value to any cash game players who consume his content.
Cheese poker 4~5 years ago not the same as now, omg and he leaved poker in over 1 million downswing. What r you talking about? Go listen and learn from Sam Farha he was HS player in NL and PLO.
@@LL-vz7rj All I'm saying is there should be something to learn from him. I can see your point but he is still more knowledgeable then most poker players.
Typical overthinking. It’s all smoke screens - 20/20 hindsight Very basic technique to mislead the consumer Not only that, how many “customers” are playing at these limits? Probably zero. If they were they wouldnt need “coaching”. Amazing how many people fall for the modern day poker coaching phenomenon This rubbish is the truly literal definition of exploitative marketing strategy
You are articulately barbed I read your comment the flow & way you comstructed it I sware I heard your voice Im laughin my ass off bro +1 for keepin it real. Why are these pros revealing their analysis? Because Online Poker is dead. Why would he reveal analysis that made him alot of money, Go back to Phil Ivey statement he was like in my day You dont share/talk about what you know about the game if its making you money. Why give it away. Its so flop specific position specific and player specific sometimes the tempo of the game comes into the effect too (flow of the cards) are players being dealt big hands are the clusters of cards coming out where 2 big hands collide. These small clusters of cards (flow of cards) is a real phenomenon. There are always short term patterns in the flow of cards meaning clusters of hands not perfectly ramdom. You feel how many different variations of flops turns ruvers come out in live play its real. When you play online, you see how weird the cards come out with algorithms and rngs, It never feels right. One thing i noticed is if u slowplay a hand online against one or 2 opponents the opponents will not just catch up but they will get there and you get coolered. Algorithms want you to play your hand straight up. How many rainbow flops do u see live or flops where there are no scare cards? Lots. How many rainbow or no scare card flops do u see online with tpyk? 0. Guy always has a flush draw straight draw or gutter ball board always gets wet when u check. Online TPTK how often do u always get a wet scary lookin flop you check flop online they get there on turn or cant fold their draw on turn (monster draw) and you get fucked because the algorithm is generating action cards. Basically you play face up and hope they call u down with crap if there a rec player hopefully they are bad enough to call with garbage when folding is blatantly made obvious to them.
Very impressive analysis by Kanu7. This course sounds like a great value for players who play these stakes!

R C that sounds about right, funny that he gets recruited to produce content for upswing though
Oooh new course!!?
Great video Alex Millar. Really well explained!

Lovely video, just missed you talking about 1 thing:
Why the frequencies of x/raising go way down on a monotone board?
Im really confused on why he is using non mono tone flops as examples? the vids not bad tho
Could you give us your definition of "high disconnected", "high connected" etc boards? Disconnected means no draws? Connected means straight possible or any draw possible?
Any board that a straight is possible is considered connected if no straight is possible he considers it disconnected.
Great vid

Love the 'poker millionaire' title...can tell Doug was behind that
7:30 how do you have a wider range then red baron. you say you would have 25s but he wont have A3o? he wont have 36s? isnt BTN opening range wider then BB calling range?
Not at low rake
To any more advanced players- if say you’re bluffing a monotone flop should your bet size be weaker ?
Yes I believe so. I'm more intermediate so I don't know for sure, but my understanding is that both bluffs and value will be sized down on monotone flops.
Thanks Alex for the insight!

Play at a slower speed. I guess the contents a bit beyond you if you cant figure that out yourself

@@alexmillar7357 an answer to a question two weeks ago:)
But what kind of software is this?
Sören Wick he said it’s a private solver
Is Phil multi-accounting??? Thought is Stars screen name was Polarising!
That was his Full Tilt screen name.
UpswingPoker. Thanks for clarifying 👍
srki22 upswing already answered this 😉
Phil was know for multi accounting tho i forget which screen names were suspected tho

what is the EV of betting 1.8x pot vs the EV of betting 33% pot on AK9r?

Doug is completely over poker but doing anything he can to kill the games off completely lol
Why you say that?
@@dannypacini9820 because he keeps teaching people how to play better. If everyone is good there's no money to be made

He was playing the most elite online cash player's for a long time at the highest available stakes. Obviously some value there.
