Great video man! Fired me up to open some HU tables.
What is the HUD that you are using ? There is some EV numbers and it made me curious.

Seems interesting for HU. I've made questions on previews videos of you, don't know if you still respond but I put the time stamp to help. Very useful concepts and one of the best approaches from the real game theory in Poker I have seen here.
15 30 - Do you like a c/r with the A6hh on K95h 8h? If he checks back, you can show down. If he bets, you punish him by making a big c/r. Or is betting better, because you don't want him to show down a weak hand he would have folded otherwise?
18 00 AK - How about overbetting the turn, because of the amount of draws and your huge advantage in monsters?
It would require work in CREV to determine whether betting turn or checking turn is better. I can't say which is best for sure, though I think either option is fine.
AK overbetting the turn seems like an okay option but it's another spot that working with CREV would be able to give you a better answer than I can.
Glad to see some anonymous videos for those of us stuck on Bovadadog, please follow up with the rest of the footage!
Really liked your thought process on the last over bet with 85 at the end of the video. I think that's one thing a lot of people are missing in their evaluation of good and bad over bet spots. I def agree that when someone calls and is wrong they feel dumb and will be more inclined to fold and when they are right they will look you up more often. Lots of value to be had if you can adjust according to their perception.
It's interesting to see someone else make use of HI on Bovada. Do you find that the EV and win % numbers are at all useful? I'm not sure of their validity and only tend to look at pot odds, but sometimes it's hard to ignore them.
I only use it for VPIP/PFR/AF.# of hands and I always like to know exactly how much I'm up or down in a session so there's a stat that lists that for me in the HUD.
On the T9 hand at 5:45 you say that you check-raise the turn with T9 and QT. I think you'd probably be better off check-raising with your AT type hands because you'll block more of his AK hands which will call turn and river. And if you think that he'll call the river with KQ, then QT makes a better bet-bet hand. In any case, you're probably better off check-folding T9 on the river, since you'll need some hands to check-fold the river.
Good points. I don't necessarily agree that I should c/f anything on the majority of rivers though due to how wide I expect most villain's to bet/call turn. Sure we block maybe 7/22(?) AK/AA combos w/ AT but I just think it depends on if we think the majority of most opponent's turn calling range is very tight which is not an assumption I'm that willing to make. Like ... I think a lot of guys are getting to this river with 60+ combos of Kx, and I have no idea how many flush draws.
I think in 6max when ranges are tighter, your argument becomes a lot stronger.
Loved the video! Very relevant to my own game, thanks Peter!
Very nice video Peter. Is it possible you can do a 6 max live session or session review on bovada again? I used to play there and although not anymore, I would like to see how you utilize the HUD and your general approach to 6 max anonymous format.
Vladimir,
Glad you enjoyed this video.
I completed the other two parts of my HU review series of Felipe's footage. Once those two come out, I'm not sure the next time another video of mine will be released.
I feel that I haven't been working hard enough on my game over the last 4-5 months and because of that I've fallen a bit behind the curve. I know my videos would still be helpful to guys in lower stakes like .5/1 1/2 2/4 but I would rather put out no videos than put out videos of subpar quality.
We haven't decided what I will do yet or how we will continue. Just going to wait it out the next couple months and then re-evaluate in September or October.
Good luck,
Peter
Loved the vid. I play on Bovada (mostly 6 max and zone). Would really like to see some anonymous 6 max play, as I've been having trouble adjusting my strategy from sites with screen names. Do you have any general tips on playing 6 max on anonymous tables?
