Fold Equity – PPP #60

Fold equity refers to the equity that you gain from your opponent folding. But how do you calculate it? That’s what the team discuss in this episode of the Postflop Poker Podcast. If you want to try your hands at calculating fold equity, there is a great tool you can use for that over at Red Chip Poker.

We also welcome a new patron, Brannen Hough. He is our first gold patron and gets a bunch of cool rewards. To become a patron yourself, check out patreon.com/postflop. Our stratchat hand (17:45) comes from our patron Grant Thomas, where he makes an interesting bluff on the river.

Where’s Your Head At? – PPP #59

On this episode, we welcome poker mind coach Elliot Roe to talk about some of the mental aspects of poker.

Elliot has worked with hundreds of poker players (& UFC fighters!) on improving their mindset. His poker clients have over $40million in winnings, one of those being last year’s WSOP Main Event winner Scott Blumstein.

This week’s Postflop Poser is on how to deal with emotions at the poker table. The stratchat hand (43:14) features no other than Phil Hellmuth, who is about to have a meltdown.

Liquidating Limpers – PPP #58

It’s a common sight in low stakes games: limp fests!

In this episode we tackle the question how to play when there are a lot of limpers at your table.

Our stratchat hand of the week (21:59) comes from Poker Night in America Season 4, featuring Sam Abernathy and Michael Laake. There is a straddle in play in this hand and we observe what effects this has on strategy.

Fear of Busting – PPP #57

It’s one of the biggest obstacles for tournament players: fear of busting! How do you become that aggressive player that is always aiming to win the tournament and taking risks in the right spots?

The stratchat hand for this week comes from Andy Howie, where he holds a draw to the nut flush. Should he play passively to try and get there, or take more risk by betting and raising?

Facing a Donk Bet – PPP #55

In this week’s episode we’re talking about what to do when facing a donk bet, in particular when you have two overcards to the board. Do you fold, call, or raise?

We also have a cash game hand where Hero finds himself with Top Pair Top Kicker. Should he barrel all streets, or slow down at some point?

Stealing is Eating – PPP #54

Stealing is important in poker. Stealing is just like eating! But what do you do when you consistently get called down and none of your steals seem to work?

Peter “Carroters” Clarke, a 6-max cash game coach from Scotland, joins us to discuss this question.

He also has an exclusive discount code for listeners of our Podcast to get his new book “100 hands” at a steal!
