Hello everyone! The 2015 WSOP Main Event provided lots of excellent educational poker footage. Instead of typing out a long blog post explaining the concept of playing conservatively when you have a middle stack, I decided to make a video. In this hand, Beckley made what I believe to be a huge error and it ended up costing him a significant amount of chips. Would you have made the same error he made?
If you enjoyed this hand, you will love my exclusive webinar where I review over 30 hands from the 2015 WSOP Main Event final table. Click here to get access to this exclusive educational experience. Be sure to check back next week for another educational blog post.

I definitely love this type of share my pair blog.
Thanks for all of your great coaching products.
hi mr little,
why does he fold the Kx or 8x? i mean arent those at least calls for 1 street (the turn)?
how about 2h or 3h flushes why doesnt he fold these to a 2barrel on turn and river?
thx
tom
On the turn with a horrible bluff catcher, especially when you will likely face another bet on many rivers, you should fold. If you run one pair on a 4 flush board versus any reasonable range, you will find it is in marginal shape at best, especially if your opponent can bet thin.
I imagine you should consider folding bad flushes to two barrels without any sort of a read.
