17 minute, That T8 hand is interesting, how would you play it nowadays? and what about your opponent comment to be shoving river, have merits? ( having Tx and 8x blocker are quite decent, not sure how great its in HU)

Kevin Rabichow 6 years, 5 months ago

He's right, it's a top quality bluff hand for that size, and if we have a high freq of QT/T7 here we could probably use this combo almost always. I think I should use this line more often than I used to, but otherwise could just check back turn to call river.

hey, great video
at min 11, table 1, what do u think about 2nd barreling with small sizing in that type of spots, and going for protection w some Tx, maybe even some 88, 77, 99, against OOP's over cards which XC flop, i know most of them are A-high, but we are not folding our Tx OTR if OOP bets? Please correct me if I am wrong.
We have same example on T73r when u Cb small OTf and XB turn K, what do u think about small sizing staretgy OTT, to get some protection against J9, J8, QJ, 89, 86, 45, 46, 65...

Thanks

It's not a bad idea, but I think it comes down to whether our range has the equity to use a higher frequency bet at all. On the board in game, I think we don't, because villain has way too many Ax for this line. On your example - T73K, I think we might do better (more folds from Kx on flop, more floats that turn equity and we want to deny vs). Remember we can't always go for protection, because we might invite loads of x/r from a stronger range.

Hey KRab, Great video as always :)

Was wondering about the Th8c at 16:15. You say on that this hand doesn't make sense to bluff river. Which makes sense to me as you block missed hearts and have some SDV. But was wondering what hands you would choose to bluff river? Considering even 67 got there which would be a hand that I would expect as a reasonable triple barrel (say with a heart on heart rivers, and without on non-hearts) it seems like you'd have a ton of value here. Of course with your small flop size you have many more bluffs to choose from on turn, but would also have more value (e.g. 98 that may check flop if using a larger cbet strategy). Would you say you have enough river bluffs using just hands like KT/maybe AT? And also on river would you split sizes?

Thanks

Thanks Daniel. I think we'll find enough regular-sized bluffs with Tx hands (including KT probably, maybe not AT), as well as Q6/Q7. When we start looking into our overbet range (and I'd definitely try to use multiple sizes on this runout) I like to take the higher end blocker stuff like AT or, if necessary, something as strong as the hand I had in game.

hi kevin, Amazing video again :)
What is your recommended cbet sizing on low disconnected boards and connected ones, and your reasoning behind it?
Particularly on low disconnected boards, i have seen you preaching a big sizing , But i have seen you use a very small sizing on these boards. Do you suggest a mix, and in that case how do you decide which hands to put in which range? TIA.

Kevin Rabichow 6 years, 4 months ago

I'm planning to do some theory videos surrounding this topic in the near future, so I won't try to explain an entire cbet strategy in the comment section here, hope you don't mind waiting for a better answer :)

Linc 6 years, 3 months ago

~22:36 after opponent took a weak line with pair of tens you say instinctively you are looking to play alot more pots with the opponent, widening your preflop calling range. Ofc that makes alot of sense against someone who doesnt bet enough for value. How do you adjust preflop if at all vs someone who does the opposite, meaning someone who bets too thin for value in general postflop? And what if that same person on top of that also bluffs too much generally postflop? My idea is we probably adjust more postflop and not much preflop but Im curious here.
