Jason Koon has cashed for more than $30.9 million in live poker tournaments over his career. As a result he now sits in ninth place on pokers all-time money list.<\/p>\n
Back in 2012 Card Player TV caught up with Koon back during the World Poker Tour Legends of Poker main event at The Bicycle Hotel & Casino for a video interview. At that point, Koon had yet to rise to the super high roller scene that he is now a staple of and had just $2.7 million in live tournament cashes under his belt.<\/p>\n
In the video, Koon discusses some common mistakes novices make when first getting into playing heads-up no-limit holdem sit-and-gos.<\/p>\n
With beginners, theyre often defending way too much out of position. I would recommend making tight folds out of position and being very aggressive when in position, offered Koon as a starting point.<\/p>\n
Also, be very selective about what ranges you decide to re-raise your opponent with. I feel that beginners often get themselves in trouble by not having a polarized three-betting range, continued Koon. So theyd three-bet a hand like ace-jack, get four-bet, and not know what to do with it. So, make sure that whenever you are re-raising someone, you know if you are bluffing or if you are doing it for value and are comfortable playing for stacks.<\/p>\n
