How to CRUSH Live $1/$2 & $2/$5 Cash Games

Where do YOU play your live cash games? 😃

So this strategy is to help you crush at low stakes vs players who aren't good but the strategy only works if the players are decent and follow this gto?

was grinding hard against some big stacks today, couldnt call much less bet for most of the session. woke up with 65s IP and flopped the nut straight. finally got paid with this very versatile hand

Something other than red green would be sweet for the colorblind folks

Where are the charts Little. I'm on Pokercoaching and i dont see

Loved this video, I’ve been calling w 9/10 suites far to often leaking chips even in position. Had a great session right after this running up 275bb!! 🙏

Why is 65s better than say 78s?

Poker has a similar amount of "luck" as chess or pool in the sense that you're halfway betting on the ability of your opponent to be able to surpass their own shortcomings or not...AKA don't play streetside chess hustlers or dive bar pool sharks unless youre sure you have the ability to properly bet against them in the event of a mistake. Thoughts?

I am learnin lot of things whaching your staff thanks everything you i have done 👍

can I voice a little devils advocate to this type of video? And sir Jonathan this is not a "hater comment" it's also kind of a question: I play 2/3 (300 cap) at players casino in ventura. It's 90 percent men over 50 seven days a week. These guys are playing ANY two and I mean ANY two did I say ANY? Yes ANY. There is no way to ever know where you are at UNLESS you 8-10x preflop. How in the world can one apply your strategies/principles to those type of guys? Minimum 4 callers on 5x raises.

This video has helped me a lot. Thank you sir

Cash games with no rake is basically a home game. Every casino in LA / California definitely has a rake

Utilized your concepts last night (def didn’t play perfect) but found it so helpful! Thanks again. What would you charge for private coaching?

@PokerCoaching - I was just watching this video, I have been watching your stuff (I think some of it was older than others) but just saw the Nov 9-13th black friday sale...is there any extension to this? I totally understand if there isn't but I feel like this is priceless and I am crushed that I missed it.

Gotta buy yourself a Poly headset with Acoustic Fence tech. We'll never hear the little screamers

Disappointed to hear 89s is not that great of a hand.. I’ve made bank w that hand when it hits (not the 10 J Q straight haha)

As the dad of a 2.5 year old it gave me a chuckle to hear your narrative of your kid causing a ruckus. I very much relate to the chaos, except my kid would be losing their mind because she’s being told she can’t climb in the freezer. Thanks for the content, there is so much to learn!

One thing I would disagree with is the assumption that low stakes players are bad because if they weren’t they would’ve moved up. I know lots of really fantastic low stakes players that don’t move up because it is recreational and the low stakes are just more comfortable.

Love the fact you mute the stream to go deal with your kids 😂😂

Why is 65suited so powerful? Is it because it doesn’t interact with their range ?

Jonathon Little making cash poker a worse experience for every single person around the world.

This is possibly the best poker strategy video I’ve watched. After watching it I played $1/$2 cash and cashed nearly 3x my starting stack!

Had a bad week, normally I would just consider it a downswing and bad luck but actually for once I looked over some hands and realized I was playing like shit. Lol

Midway through, you spoke about how "open-raising bigger than 3x BB" is torching money. My local games can raise anywhere from 5x-15x when RFI. How do you adjust preflop strategy for weird raise sizings? Would be great to have a video on this :)

I played my first 1/3 game in over 10 years. Last Friday I went at it the Poker coaching way and made $300 in 4hrs Crazy enough if I would have played like a dummy I could have made possibly 300 more and lost it all with too much risk and variance…. I felt like I was playing a low risk game and was just slowly stacking chips. I Even folded Pocket 10s preflop one hand To pocket AAs Folded AJ off a few times too the guy next to me thought I was nuts. Playing this way allowed me to get thru 2 really good bluffs

The kids in the background is everything. 100% relatable as a parent

Why do the live cash game charts have no rake?

You’re training videos have been excellent for recent profits and minimizing losses. Keep making these videos!

You should consider making a video on how to adjust and play in the wild cash (1/2 and 1/3 match the stack) games going on in Texas. I went out last Friday expecting a loose, but normal 1/2 game and was immediately off my game at how crazy they are. We opened the table with 300 dollars. I was only going to kill a couple of hours before I had obligations, so only brought 400 total. Within an hour stacks built (and matched) up to about 1K and I was the overwhelmingly shortest stack. People were opening 10x, calling with any 2, 5 way all in for 1200 pot...I didn't adjust, was kind of caught off guard. I tried to be patient and pick a spot in position to get it in, but no one even blinked at my 180 dollar shove. I was stacked when I got KK 4 bet the two 10x opens for 180 got 4 callers. I think I know how to adjust to it going forward, but its a whole different game than most are used to.

You said that any game where people are raising more than 3x they are just torching money. I play 2/5 full time and standard raise is 4-6x, by good players too, and any stream I see it is the same. Thoughts?

I love playing super low limits, why would I want to risk losing to better players. Granted, I am an oddity. I must be the only player with no ego. Super video as usual JL. I wish I had more time to fully get into training, it’s not feasible unfortunately.

I appreciate how precisely Jonathan annunciates the word “blunder”

We only play when we are hard. We never play with a limp.

Is there a way to make the chart bigger on the app, I can barely read it

What is the software you use to get the hand charts and everything. is that free? where to get?

I have always tried my best to crush the micro table but, it was always me...who finally got crushed...lol

Nice job JL

Was hard to tell the difference between the colors

JL are you going to the ACR event at the Atlantis ?

Thank you for the pass and the value Jonathan!

working here

Watching from UK,great site

The comments from the live chat always has me rolling

Checking the marginal pair 88 on the river seems to fall in line with keeping the pot small with marginal hands.......why risk reopening the betting?

Thank you for doing this JL

Weird to not use a solution that doesn't account for rake when you're talking about games where rake is the highest

I'm REALLY looking forward to this new chart system going live!

JTo is an almost 100% fold against CO raise and button call?? That's insane

Besides Bob's basement....Where on this great earth can I play $2-$5 with no rake??

My daughter is learning long division with decimals. I can relate to homework gravitas!
