its a $5 MTT, nobody is NAI min 4 bet bluffing unless u have the guy labelled as a whale. Think flatting Q9s vs the 4 bet has a TON of reverse implied odds. Dont see a reason to call there. the only way i could justify flatting the Q9s there vs the 4 bet is if u covered him, but you dont. Such a soft tourney, way easier/risk free spots to pick up chips than trying to battle in 4 bet pots when guys only have KK+

It's not a great spot with the Q9s, but that opponent was a loose Brazil reg; those players can absolutely find 4bet bluffs with Ax. They can easily overdo it because there are many more combos of Ax that don't want to flat a 3bet than there is KK+. I don't expect to see AQ or AK or even JJ for the sizing they chose. I feel confident enough in my post-flop skills and hand reading to make those sort of flats vs those sort of opponents. Assuming nobody can 4bet bluff in a $5 tourney unless they are a whale is a bad assumption IMO. I see more crazy preflop stuff from "regs' in lower-stakes tourneys than I do in higher stakes. Mostly because a lot of players at the lower stakes have less solid fundamentals and are just "trying stuff" or trying to outplay people too much.

Good video, good run.

I think 25 bbs is too much to open jam. 20 is more reasonable. I get myself in trouble doing that a lot, too.
Given their play styles behind (passive), at what point should we be jamming into them? 15-16 bbs and min raise anything above? Or do you think 20 is the right amount?

Adam Crawford 2 years, 5 months ago

It all depends on the exact spot, do you have a more specific example? There are some spots where open jamming 20bbs can be the right move, but it is usually only for specific ICM spots. For chipEV, there are almost no spots where I want to open jam 20bbs. SB vs BB is the only spot where it makes any sense to have an open jam 20bb range.
