Hey guys, I am getting married soon so I might not be as responsive as usual. I will definitely get to your questions and comments when I have time though!
GG
Congrats!
Congrats!!
Not watched video yet but congratulations on getting married.
Nice video!
8:20 AK hand, You said CO has tighter range, so he might not have that many off suit broadways, so he have flushes more often, and this is the reason you xf flop. But I think opposite. Yes he have more flushes than when his range is looser. But you get more FE. Because he don't have that many offsuit broadways, he missed flop more often. I think you xf this spot is OK, but I don't agree with your reason. I would more attempt to bluff monoton board when villian is suited heavy.
Well, our overall range benefits in this spot from a free card and checking would be easier to balance here. I've run some simulations in PIO solver and it shows that we should be ~15% of the time, in this case i employ a checking strategy.
Why do we bet/lead QQ on OE completing turn on T7XJhhcc board risking reraise? Later we c/f after we said we w8 for SD w/o any comment? Its on 42:50...
Could we see opponents hand once we get called for our VB, AT hand comes to my mind on KQJ flop...?
Why we call As9s and not folding/raising as most times we ll be dominated by better AB hands, especially mw if we dont play vs low pocket pair that flats pre?
Good video overall, interesting spots like JT c/r for instance..Good luck and have a nice wedding party! Thanks for answers when you find time for it...
Hi there, the QQ spot is interesting. On the river I made an exploitable fold. 1. our range looks face up 2. I have filtered my database for river calls in 3b pots for spots like this and I haven't seen anyone turn anything into a bluff. Only case for calling could be made if we think that our opponent is going to valuebetting worse, but given how badly our range plays in this spot, we generally want to check very often here when we get to the river.
As for AT spot, I think my opponent had one pair type hand which is shocking.
And I don't understand about which As9s spot you are talking about, please give a timestamp.
Around 26min you talk about 3betting to ~7.5x in sb vs a 3.5x utg with 5.5-6% range. That seems pretty specific which leads me to believe you weren't just pulling numbers out of thin air. Did you see some good reg using that strategy? Not necessarily related to this spot alone but in general, how do you go about finding/solving these kinds of weirder strategies that most, especially uNL regs wouldn't even think about? Are you just running random crev scripts overnight hoping to find something when you wake up? :D
I've seen this strategy employed by some of the top russian zoom regs and they show great results. As for preflop solving, most spots are trial and error for me. It also depends what price we are getting, if our opponent raises big, we are not going to flat often there and mostly 3bet, so 3betting small with depolarised range makes more sense as we can use our weaker value hands as our bluffs and be completely balanced. By making huge sizing preflop vs huge open size, we might end up against a very strong range preflop, which correctly folds unexploitable amount and we are going to play bloated pot oop, where realising our equity is going to be more complicated.
Here comes some constructive critic.
Dont play 4zoom tables. 2 is perfect.
Get a better mic or dont sit so close to it.
Even the hands u snapfold pre can be good to explain when its more close. That u dont find the time when playing 4 tables.
It get much clearer and easier graphicwise to follow with only 2 tables.
Hope to see u make these changes. I think the result will be great.
Hi there,
Thanks for the advice. My microphone is actually quite good, "Blue Yeti" if you heard of it, I will adjust my sound settings next time. I will try to include more information on preflop folds if you are interested.
28:30 54s on table 3. I feel the urge to check with the turned "sd-value" quite often in spots like these, which is probably not very good. Is there any point in betting this on turn and then not bluffing rivers or is the whole point semibluffing good equity to follow thru on river expecting not to have any sd-value? Would checking turn make sense if we were ip? Obv player and player pool dependent. I just noticed it's a spot where i kneejerk check a lot because pair, couldn't come up with a good question tho :D
Very good video, thanks!
Well, main reason why we want to put in this hand into our betting range is because that our opponent has quite a bit of Ahi and broadway type floats with bdfds and they have quite a bit of equity (6+ outs) and can realise it easily by checking ip and/or barreling multiple runouts.
Hi,
4.25: JJ hand on JQT7K. You x the R in order to bluffcatch with some hands which is fine. I understand that you bluffcatch with hands that don't block his folding range on previous streets but why is TT better than JJ?
Hi there, now when I think about it, given that ppl flat T9s, ATs type hands and AJo type hands they are quite similar.
Hi good video!
At 37 minutes, what flush draw hands would you check raise with a high frequency/always? And would this change 100bb deep? I'm always worried about check raising lowish flushdraws fearing being dominated when i hit and not blocking flushdraws villain could fold himself on blank runouts, and the nut fd's always feel so comfortable to me to x/c.
Could you go a little deeper into how i might construct a solid check raising range on these boards lets say 100 deep? Do we want some hands with the Ah blocker like Ah8 or Ah3?
Thanks
Hi there,
The flushdraws you want to call are the ones with showdown value or with overcards to the top card. I think I would prefer check raising Ah8x and x/c with Ah3x also, if you want to x/r Ahxh type hands, I would recommend going with lower ones as you will get your opponent to fold some AT-A4 type hands which have backdoor draws and that's a huge win for you :)
Hi,
23:00 A8: What are your thoughts on using A8 instead of 88 as the hand combos to check here? Having A8 reduces the likelihood of his Ax hands while increasing his draw probability.
Enjoy your videos. Thanks in advance!
Well, we need protection against overcards with our hand, there are still plenty of Ax, 8x, 7x, 3x, pocketpairs and draws which are going to call a bet. Also, a lot of people 3bet 99+ in this spot preflop, which makes our hand very strong. When we have 88, we drastically reduce his top pair combinations + we need little to none protection against his straightdraws.
00: 50 table 2, you folded A6o bvb. Is it standard?
Woops, def not standard. It was a miss click.
