Great video Phil! One quick question about the last hand in the video with the J3. Love your thought process here but was wondering what you meant when on the turn you said, "I could check raise here...but I might force out a lot of his hands that are doing well against me."?
Do you mean doing well against your range and not your specific hand? Obviously no hand doing well against you will fold that's why I am confused.
Let's say you do check call the turn. Are we check/calling a blank river? Leading some rivers? I love the check/raise bet river line myself, but just wondering what we are doing on different rivers if we do check call?
Thanks in advance!
Thanks, Leatherass!
I misspoke there. I meant that I force out a lot of his worse hands, narrowing his range to one that I'm not crushing.
I don't have a leading range on any rivers after x/c turn here. I think it's a little too difficult to balance with a turn x/r range, but perhaps it would be nice to incorporate so that we could x/c with some draws that otherwise don't have enough EV and punish our opponent's strategy of betting twice with a very wide range (that contains a lot of showdown value).
I would usually be x/r river if I x/c turn. I like to respond to sizings in spots like these where I have close decisions between call/raise. I think it's important to have some hands that raise against smaller sizings for value but call against larger sizings.
I'd like to follow up with one more clarifying/related question if I may. Let's say we don't check raise the turn here what do you expect him to do if on a blank river with AA/KK? What do you expect him to do if he rivers a medium strength flush or a nut flush? Thanks!
More good questions :)
I think he'd definitely bet a nut flush. The rest of the examples you gave are borderline. He's repping AA/KK for the most part on the turn, so I think he'll need to bet them at some frequency on brick rivers if he's going to be able to bluff a reasonable amount - probably with a small sizing.
Thank god for a Phil session review (by Phil, tyvm). We can't all be playing live (._.)
hey Phil, interesting video. At the 31th minute at the bottom left table where you have AAA2, on 55 9 board: what do you do at a chekraise shove from your opponent?
