Hi uros19, with A6 my plan was to bet on blank turn, so if he called, pot would be about 250$, so my bet would very likely be 200$. Id prefer to go allin on the flop, but either way with 3 more outs backing me up (gutshot) I would just keep firing.
Regarding K7, I do not mind check-calling the turn with Kx flush draws and some Ax flush draws. Keep in mind I would probably x-r the flop with AJclubs or ATclubs and some other combos as well. JT hands I would fold on the turn, cant really stick around with them when im OOP, and JT of clubs is not in my range because I would raise the flop with it.

Hope this helps, let me know if there are any more questions I can answer for you :)

Thank you Ivanaddiction! Good suggestion, its what I usually use and I will have it in the next video!

Hi Kaizen, thank you very much :)
@7'40 table 3, im glad your brought this hand up, I thought about it for some time even when I was done playing my session. I felt like he knew my range will be weak and was taking advantage of it. But either way, A6 would be a really bad call :D. You are right, doing anything other than shoving the river with QJ accomplishes nothing and its a bad move so if your going to bet, make sure its allin. However, I see myself giving up on the river with QJ and going to showdown. Even though I block some of his calling range with it, it just seems a little too much and not that necessary. In the end, it all depends on how you construct your entire range with such a line, so you will have 6 QJo combos (without spade) and if you want to take out 1 or 2 combos to shove with I think you can make it work.
Good bluffing hands on the river would be, well looking at the hand right now the first combo that came to my mind is 5-4s, or even 5-3s. It would be better if they werent spades of course, but you should be flexible here, so sometimes its okay to shove spades as well. J7ss can also work, and even 76. My reasoning is that Q on the river has just turned most of my turn bluffs into nuts, so KJ and J9. Hands like KQ QJ and so on game me sd value, so im only stuck with 9-7 and whatever I said above. What sucks is that those hands do not block my opponents calling range, but I have to work with them. I guess this also brings us back to QJo that you mentioned, so in case you do not 2pot the turn with 54 or 67 or 97, then QJo is okay to shove on the river.

@10'30: This is a spot where you can mix it up, so with KK or AQ I do not check 100% of the time. If your bet sizing is going to be 60-75% on the turn then yes, you can bet always, but in this case, i prefer to bet the turn no less than 80%, so sometimes I can afford to check back those hands.

I hope what I said made sense, if something needs clarification just let me know! Thanks for your support :)

Hi ok thanks for your detailed answer, the first spot is definitely interesting. I also see myself checking back QJ river without spade not thinking about bluff shove this hand as it's a good blocking hand against his DP. It's sure that we have to be careful about our bluffing frequency and be sure that we are not shoving all of our missed draw river and balance well the two siz that we have. For the second hand, i agree with you that if we size up and bet big we have to mix it up with those hands and check back sometimes but i feel like it"s a big downside of betting big and i probably bet 80ish % of the pot to not have to check those hands but i'm ok with this strategy. Sorry for my approximative english and ty for your answer it was very interesting

I understood everything perfectly, im glad I can help, and sorry for taking a lot of time to reply.

Hi Rubiniho,
11min AA: I think its okay to bet with a club since we have a nut flush draw, so if I hit a club on the turn or river id prefer to be in a position to bet. AA without a club is a much weaker hand which is why I would just check to slow it down. Obviously I wouldn't check fold (unless the opponent makes a ridiculously large bet size) its still a good hand so I prefer to just check-call it.

31min T9cc: my HUD shows that MP player has 20/15 stats which is nitty like you said, but I only have 62 hands and that sample is not big enough to make a conclusion about his style of play yet. Sometimes when I begin a session, HUD says after first 100 hands that I play 18 10, and other times it shows me as a 36 28 player but that is not how I play. Overall it is a little too loose and I do not do it always, so with T9, i would squeeze maybe once out of every 3 or 4 times i get it. My whole squeezing range is premium hands+AQs AJs ATs, i think low suited aces can work as well, A5-2s, KQs, QJs. Pairs I think i go as low as 9s. And sometimes I throw in 7-6s or 6-5s, when I feel optimistic :)

This is my standard squeeze sizing, if I get called the pot size on the flop is really good for me regardless of what I have.

As far as my plan goes, there are many factors, it depends which player calls me, is it both or just one, whats on the flop. I think its likely for me to take an aggressive approach on the flop, and then reevaluate turn and river.
Hope this clears everything up!

?

Sorry for not clarifying earlier Rubinho, what I mean is that when I get called, by one or both players preflop, the pot size on the flop will be okay for me to either bluff or value, it wont be too big or too small, so im not too commited. I can make a nice plan depending on what I want to do.

Thank you Jikos92, I appreciate the support!

Thanks Koos, next one should be up in a week :)

Thanks Fishfeast!
Yeah this all went through my head as I was playing, the min raise followed by a x on the river, it didn't make sense and I assumed its unlikely he was better, but at the same time I just didn't see worse hands he should call with here. Also, I was surprised that he raised the turn with KJ. So other than those 4 combos, I dont think he would ever raise the turn with for example K9 or K8. Hes only left to raise with some fd+gutshot bluff combos, and in the end that is what I assumed he had, which made me think my value bet is pointless.
Also, I realized right away if the river card was not a 9, so if it was an 8 for example, then I would make a value bet with KQ for sure. I just didn't like the 9, because at that point I have K9 combos to add to my value range.
Overall, I did not have many past experiences with this player and I had very limited information about him, but knowing what I know now, then yes, this is a good exploit spot because his range is face up so KQ can be a value bet.

Thanks for watching koivisto, while making the video I realized its a lot different when you say and explain your thoughts out loud, so Im happy to hear that it makes sense :)

Thanks for watching GuestSWE!
@39:49: yes, you can bet JT for value on the river and a raise here should not be your concern. My initial thought process was that I would bet AT KT QT, and JT I just decided to put in my x-c range. Also T9 and T8 I'd cbet the flop, so JT is my weakest Tx hand I would have in this situation. So that is why I checked the river, but I think a half pot bet would work fine as well.

Are T9 and T8 bets because they have the gutshot and therefore have more equity vs his callingrange or because they need more protection vs overcards?

Sorry for the late reply Insilico!
They are a bet because I have more equity, and If i get raised on the flop, I'm more comfortable calling T8 and T9 because they can improve better than JT can.

Hi Dauntless, my 4bet sizing was full pot before, it used to piss off a lot of players :D

Hi mason barrell, thanks :)
Well, Id bet 75 for sure, and it somewhat depends on my playing history vs a certain player, so if I believe my opponent will likely overcall the river and thinks I bluff too much, then I would bet even some Ax combos.

Hey erc007, thank you very much, I really appreciate it!

Hi fighthingcoward, im happy to answer you questions.
2:58 flop play is optional here, I think cbetting is okay, maybe its an over bluff vs a good reg but I think I can get away with it. My goal was to win the hand right away on the flop by betting once and if i got called I would rethink my plan on the turn. Just looking at the flop, I would probably bet most of my range, so premium hands (AA KK AK QQ), two pair(76), AK combos for bluff, some draw combos (45) i have occasionaly and 65. I would check KQ, AQ, probably A4/5 combos.

5:45 K7: sure, i beat some of his bluff combos with Kx but at the same time its extremely difficult for me to make a second call with that same hand on the river. If he has garbage, then I prefer to win the hand right away by making him fold, rather than going to the river and seeing him make a top pair with for example Q8s. I would have 5x to bluff catch with x-c.

10:32 sure, you can bet bigger, I have 2 bet sizes on this flop, 65% and 50%. I just happened to select 50% this time.

11:50 With a club we have a nut flush draw, so if I hit a club on the turn or river id prefer to be in a position to bet. AA without a club is a much weaker hand which is why I would just check to slow it down. Obviously I wouldn't check fold (unless the opponent makes a ridiculously large bet size) its still a good hand so I prefer to just check-call it.

35:20 I think that generally opponents will not bluff enough in this situation, at least that is my experience. I remember countless times where I would see players give up the river with 67. On the river im stuck with Ax hands and mid pairs, so my entire range consists of bluff catchers..the opponents know that and tend to give up very often. Obviously I wouldn't fold everything here, but I'm very cautious.

11.50 Dont we want to protect our hand against small pairs with a club or get value from Kqo type of hands that gonna XB a lot? Isn't a good strategy to bet all your range with a small sizing here?

*I mean with AA without clubs..

Yes, you can bet AA(without the club) as well, but you can also get value from KQ type hands on the turn when he xs back. I wouldn't suggest betting your entire range range on this flop, especially when you miss completely. It also doesnt makes sense to always bet every AA and KK and then just x-f every time you have hands like A4(hearts). But, if your strategy makes you prefer to bet for protection then yes, I think you can cbet any KK or AA but not all the time, so have a mixed strategy.

Zazaaaa thank you :)

Hi Erict87! Sorry i didnt get a chance to respond earlier, ive been quite busy.
I mainly use two programs to study my hands with, the first one is PokerSnowie and the second one is PioSolver, however Ive only used the second one for about 10 months.

So the way I did it, I pretty much play, and then analyze my every move postflop with PokerSnowie. I would look at its range first, then I would try to understand why it prefers to, for example, bet certain boards 90% and others 30%. What boards he wants to check-raise the most and so on. Its a very good program to use as a road map. Very often, i would just create my own range for certain boards.
In the beginning, it was a slow process but, as you analyse more hands you start to see a pattern and you start to develop the ability to think quicker. Then, after getting a good background knowledge, I would adapt my range depending on the players i play against. What I mean is that PokerSnowie will not teach you how to exploit opponents, but it will give you a great backbone, and then you can by yourself change your range to take advantage of you opponents weaknesses. So in some cases you can overbluff if they will fold too much or you shouldn't have a bluffing range if they call too much. This is where your experience comes into play, and you should spend some time analysing your opponents as well.
Also, PioSolver is quite good here too, it cannot always be accurate because you never know the exact hands your opponent will have but it can teach you how to play the same hand against a weak opponent and against a tight opponent.
Honestly, any way you put it, it all comes down to spending your time away from tables and studying your hands.
Really hope this helps!

Thanks offthegrid! I appreciate it!

Hi hypage, thank you, and sorry for not responding earlier, ive had a really busy month!

KJo: Yes, raising the flop definitely crossed my mind when I was playing this hand, it makes sense and you can do it when its blind vs blind, so i suggest 50% of the time call 50% raise, I just randomly selected to call this time. Regarding turn, I think its okay to just check back, there arent many rivers that i wont call. Besides I can induce a bluff very often, since I only called a small flop bet and then checked back the turn, so my hand looks weak and he may attempt a bluff to make me fold 6x or 5x. At least that is how I imagined the hand to be played out. But it doesnt always work out the way I want it to and I cant always avoid a worst case scenario , so a 4th diamond did suck for me on the river. I think it also depends on the field of players you play against, so a "call flop & bet turn" strategy can work as well.

Thank you! Sorry about the late reply, Ive been quite busy for the past month.
KQo: i think he can go either way, it all depends on his own strategy and understanding of the game, but both ways are fine. I do not think he should ever lead the river with AK, because I will only call with stronger hands (4 straight combos, set of 9s and Js) I'm folding all two pair combos, including KJ. Although when i think about it, i may have A9 sometimes, but i probably wont bet the turn often with that hand. Same goes with AA, because I will shove Js and 9s on the river anyway.
When you some that all up, i think i have the river pretty well defended against all of his possible bluffs so, I personally do not prefer to have a donking range here unless I am somehow trying to exploit my opponent.

Thanks!

thank you for the kind words Everize :)
