Ep 567 - Chats: Matt Affleck is BACK to Talk Strategy!

The Rec Poker Podcast

This week Jim Reid and the RecPoker RECing Crew are BACK with pro player and coach Matt Affleck! We get right into the strategy talk this week, taking questions from social media and the YouTube chat to dive into subjects like limping, donk bets, how to study efficiently, how to apply your knowledge at the tables, the benefits of playing online and live, using variance against the villains at the table, expanding your ranges to exploit other players, and a lot more!

We also play Stake/Study Stack with Brock Wilson, Jonathan Jaffe, and Alex Fitzgerald and of course we give away a free prize at the end for folks in the YouTube chat. Join us LIVE on YouTube next Monday at 7:30 ET for free to ask our guests questions in real time, and you can win too!
