Good video. Again, ... ( 2 years ago by Paint13aller)

Good video. Again, these videos are good as they show how people jump into a raise when they are out of position, and doesn't protect the hand.

Nice video, but you ... ( 2 years ago by bsheck)

Nice video, but you gotta make it three bets preflop.

the hand was played ... ( 2 years ago by beg0r)

the hand was played rather weakly. you should definetly have reraised the preflop raiser, as you usually always have an equity edge with AKo. some of the limpers would probably also have folded their hands then. so, reraise 1) for VALUE 2) for PROTECTION you simply can't wait for the flop to start protecting your very good starting hand. this is just weak-tight, sorry.

This was played ... ( 2 years ago by kr4ckas)

This was played pretty well, I think. He had a feeling that the preflop raiser was gonna continue bet, so I like the way he planned the hand, it actually worked out. I will also agree, raising the preflop better was not a bad play. But remember AK is worth nothing till it connects.

I like the flat ... ( 2 years ago by anevildoer)

I like the flat call preflop. AK is a drawing hand, you want to get money in the pot to increase your pot odds--until you hit it, then chase players to create dead money. PLus I think if you had it heads up on the flop your lead out bet would not seem as strong and would likely get a raise from late position holding AJ. This is all just supposition, any thoughts on this assertion would be appreciated.

nice production. keep posting.

What was his ... ( 2 years ago by simonjeste)

What was his position pre-flop? Sounds like the pot was $30 at the flop, 10 bets, and with 5 seeing the flop that means maybe that he was UTG and his preflop raise was simply called by everyone... Hard for him to re-raise himself ;)

simonjeste, he was ... ( 2 years ago by 420Kasper420)

simonjeste, he was the SB. It appears you are playing $3/$6 Limit Holdem. No prob there (except its not NL, lol). Some realism is missing here because you control everything in the situation from hole cards to betting. In my opinion/experience, your reasoning didn't cover the many other ways this pot coulda been played. However, i won't criticize further because i realize you're trying to help newbies learn the basics of the game + 500 chars. max... PS: Where did you get this software?

Ak it would be best ... ( 1 year ago by ahxpluhh)

Ak it would be best not to get into a raging preflop rage with these cards because you will need to hit an ace or a king besides if there are too many players on the table that has raised preflop chances are they've already have a pocket pair so u played it right.i dont know what beg0r is talking about he probably is just a noob himself

Yes works excellent thanks I did this and the guy went all in and I won all... any negative comment try this you will be amazed because it gets your opponents to bet and you will win with good cards. Thank you for the video your defiantly a pro. sometime when i have AA and i bet a lot people fold but now they bet and that means i win 99% if the time....

I think the check ... ( 1 year ago by QuaKKy)

I think the check at the end was a mistake, because it showes weakness. In addition, for the aggressive player would be harder to raise when there is a bet from us (and we showed that we have strong cards with the check-raise) but with this check it's easier for him to bet and we don't want the pot to be very big, because we don't have a really strong hand.

You should do a strategy vid for a good hand in late position, where everybody checks to you.. I had that kind of situations!

i was not impressed ... ( 1 year ago by drewdonham)

i was not impressed at all with ur play im afraid. To not reraise preflop to get the crap hands out is dumb in my opinion. someone could have been in there with an ace 5 and taken alot of money from u. Also i guess that because i play alot of poker i noticed some things about larrys moves. he was the raiser preflop and he bet into 5 ppl after the flop. so i think u can

im srry. im a ... ( 1 year ago by drewdonham)

im srry. im a fucking retard. i just spent 20 minutes of my time writing almost 2 paragraphs on why that was a bad play. but he is playing limit holdem.he played it awesome. if that was no limit it would be different but its not. srry for my above comment i started to write. i ride the small bus
