You play a 4bet pot at 17.00 where the flop is K93tt. You argue that the flop favors the caller here and that he probably should have some leads.
I dont quite understand this as the 4better should have a much higher frequency of the very stong hands like AA-KK and AK. The 4better should also have hands like QQ-TT way more often which have a pretty high equity versus a 4bet calling range.
As you mention the 4bet caller will have more KQs-KTs but that doesnt amount for enough combos to make the flop favorable for him(giving him a equity advantage)? His equity advantage should also be pretty significant because he certainly dont have a nutadvantage here. In addition - if he starts leading these toppair hands, some flushdraws and some hands like AsJx he will will be left with a very weak checking range.
I had to listen back to the few minutes before this hand, and I think I simply misspoke at the very end ~16:50 when I used the phrase 'favor the big blind'. My argument here is mostly that the texture connects well enough with bb's perceived range that some % of the population will develop leads. I still think the overall advantage is slightly with the button here, although less than usual in 4bp flops. And of course, you're correct in saying that with some leads in bb's strategy, his check range will be quite weak overall.
Thanks for the question - sorry for the delay in getting back to you!
Hi Kevin,
Amazing video. At 28, don't you think the villain should have triple barreled? The only hand that he is worried about you defending is A8 or j9, and he blocks both of those, on a board that heavily favours him. Shouldn't the river been an overbet bluff?
Nice catch, kinda similar to a hand that's getting discussion on my most recent video. I think it's a quality overbet bluff combo, especially for whatever his largest sizing is.

What do you think about this?

hi Kevin, great series!
I seen you playing high stakes 6 max zoom recently, is there any chance you would do a couple vids reviewing that? would be really cool.
They released the video before I could even get around to telling you yes!
haha you're meant to pretend you are just extremely attentive to comments xD
I would also LOVE to see you making some 6max videos!
