WPH #485: Daniel Negreanu Tries To OWN Me!!!!



Cyber Week is upon us with up to 71% off between Nov 27 & Dec 4! DON’T miss out! https://pokercoaching.com/cyberweek

In today’s Weekly Poker Hand Jonathan analyzes a hand that he played himself against poker legend Daniel ‘KidPoker’ Negreanu during a Poker Masters final table!

Jonathan believes that Negreanu’s raise preflop with J3hh is too loose, especially considering the payout implications and the fact that there are two shorter stacks than him. These two shorter stacks are also PokerCoaching coaches – Brock Wilson & Justin Saliba! Having said that Jonathan recognizes that Negreanu is going to be more likely to be playing for the win as he will be less concerned about the payout implications.

As Daniel Negreanu only has 16 big blinds before the flop there are a lot of hands containing an ace that he should just shove, so when the flop comes ace high Jonathan can discount a lot of hands that beat his middle pair which makes it an easy call for him.

Daniel Negreanu is 5th on the all time money list with over $51,300,000 in total live earnings & has 6 WSOP bracelets. He is 49 years old and originally from Toronto, Canada but now resides in Las Vegas, U.S.A. Negreanu grew up playing primarily cash games and has appeared on many popular poker shows such as High Stakes Poker, Poker After Dark, and High Stakes Duel (he won the most recent season beating Eric Persson and Doug Polk and claiming $200,000 and the championship belt).

Jonathan Little is 175th on the all time money list with over $8,000,000 in total live earnings & has 2 WPT titles. Jonathan is a 38 year old professional poker player from the U.S.A. He is also the founder of PokerCoaching.com!

Jonathan Little came 2nd in this event for $154,700, Daniel Negreanu came 6th for $54,600

The 2023 Poker Masters was the 8th season of the Poker Masters. It took place from September 14th-26th 2023, from the PokerGO Studio at ARIA Resort & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. There were 10 events on the schedule and all the events were No-Limit Hold’em. Buy-ins ranged from $10,000 to the $50,000 Main Event.

This hand took place during a $10,000 2023 Poker Masters Event in the PokerGO Studio in Las Vegas! Our hero Jonathan Little was facing off against poker legend Daniel Negreanu on this final table.

🃏 Preflop: The action begins with Negreanu deciding to raise with J3hh on the button with just 16 big blinds behind. Jonathan Little makes the easy call from the big blind with T9o and both players head to the flop.

💥 The Flop: Ac 9c 5d The flop gives Little middle pair and he opts to check to Negreanu, the preflop aggressor. Negreanu continues to tell his story of strength with a bet of 75,000 and Little makes the easy call.

🔥 The Turn: Ad The Ace on the turn pairs the board and Little checks once again. Negreanu doesn’t slow down and fires out another bet for 175,000. Little still doesn’t believe the story that Negreanu is trying to tell and makes the call once again.

🚀 The River: 6s The river card changes nothing with regards to the strength of both players hands. Little checks for a final time and Negreanu fires the 3rd and final barrell, practically putting himself all in with just jack high! Can Jonathan Little sniff out the bluff and make a great hero call? Watch the video to find out!

WPH #483: Rampage Poker With ACES In A HORRIBLE Spot!



Have you ever wanted to know how to play draws perfectly? Well look no further as Jonathan Little gives you everything that you will need to play straight draws & flush draws PERFECTLY!

It is important to remember that all flush draws and straight draws do NOT have the same value! Generally draws that have overcards to the board will have more equity, especially if your opponent has a marginal holding like a pair.

Flush & Straight draws are incredibly profitable hands if you play them correctly. Here are 3 quick tips to help you make the best possible decision when you have a draw:

1. Raise more often against small bets 2. Raise more often from out of position 3. Do NOT raise high equity draws that would have to fold to a re-raise

🔥 RAISE MORE OFTEN AGAINST SMALL BETS 🔥

Small bets will indicate frequent bets, this means that your opponent will be betting with a very wide range that cannot often face too much aggression. For this reason you should raise frequently to apply pressure to your opponent’s marginal hands. On the flip side, you should raise less often against large bets and you should actually fold more often when facing a larger bet size, especially with your worst draws.

🔥 RAISE MORE OFTEN FROM OUT OF POSITION 🔥

From in position, you will realize your equity well. From out of position, you won’t! Position is power in poker! Imagine playing a game of rock/papper/scissors and always getting to act last. You would win every single time! Poker isn’t as simple as this but it gives you a good idea on the importance of position.

🔥 Do NOT Raise/Fold Your High Equity Draws 🔥

Draws with decent equity that would have to fold to an all-in usually do not raise. It is a disaster when you have a lot of equity but are forced to fold to a huge raise size as you will often not be getting the correct price to mathematically call.

WPH #481: Chris Moneymaker CRUSHES This AMATEUR Poker Player!



Join Jonathan Little as he reviews a poker hand played by the legend himself and the reason for the 2003 poker boom! It’s Chris Moneymaker, yes that’s his real surname.

Jonathan discusses how it is important to know your preflop ranges so that you do not get into too many tricky spots! Playing a hand like JTo from early position facing an early position raise should be avoided! Jonathan also believes that Moneymaker’s call from the small blind with QTo is a little too lose due to it being a 3 blind game. Moneymaker now has 2 players to act behind him that could potentially squeeze him out of the pot.

When you are playing in multiway pots you do not want to use a large bet size because it indicates that you believe you have a range and/or nut advantage which is extremely hard when there are so many players in a pot.

Jonathan also breaks down the thought process that you should have on the river in a multiway pot when you hold the nuts. There are certain ways when playing out of position that you can maximize your earnings. In this particular instance Jonathan completely agrees with Moneymakers check on the river as he is likely to make more money this way rather than if he were to lead.

Chris Moneymaker, is an American professional poker player. He won the 2003 WSOP Main Event for $2,500,000, and is seen by many as the reason for the poker boom which saw many people all over the world start to play poker. He has $6,152,000 in live tournament earnings putting him 251st in the world rankings. Jibrael Hindi is introducted an amateur poker player from America. He is a lawyer and professional bodybuilder.

This week on Hustler Casino Live was advertised as ‘Moneymaker Week’ as it was his debut on the stream. Moneymaker was scheduled to play around 3 days of live streams. But he ended up getting too intoxicated during the first game which resulted in him not playing on the stream again that week. Other notable poker players on the stream were Johnnie Vibes, Alec Torreli, Mariano, & Rob Kuhn.

This high stakes poker hand took place during the ‘Moneymaker Week’ hosted by the Hustler Casino Live poker room. The blinds were at $25/$50/$100 with a $100 Big Blind Ante.

🃏 Hand Highlights: Rob (UTG+1) kicks off the action raising with AdKh, next to act Jibrael decides to call with JsTc, legendary Chris Moneymaker calls with QdTh from the small blind, and popular poker vlogger Johnnie Vibes completes from the big blind with A5hh.

💥 The Flop: Jh 9c 4d The flop misses the original raiser who decides to check. Jibrael seizes his opportunity with top pair and decides to bet $500. Moneymaker calls with his open ended straight draw and Vibes calls with his backdoor flush and straight draws. Rob also decides to make a questionable call with his two over cards and potential backdoor straight draw.

🔥 The Turn: 8s The turn is the gin card for Moneymaker as he hits his straight, unfortunately for him both Vibes and Jibrael check behind.

🚀 The River: 7h The river card now brings 4 to a straight which is great news for Moneymaker as he has the nut straight! Moneymaker sets the trap once again and checks only for Rob with just ace high to make a $2,200 bet! Jibrael decides to make an interesting call and not a raise with his straight. This is where Moneymaker springs into action with a huge raise to $10,000. Vibes and Rob make the easy fold but Jibrael now has a huge decision, he only loses to one hand! He does eventually make the call and is shown the bad news as Moneymaker turns over the nut straight. With the river card on the table, Moneymaker checks, Vibes checks, and Rob makes a $2,200 bet. Jibrael decides to call, but here comes the twist – Moneymaker springs into action with a raise to $10,000! Vibes folds, Rob folds, and Jibrael makes the bold decision to call all-in.
