Entertaining and informative video!

How long do 3 way sims take to run?

5:20 it shows that aj with no spade likes to bet. I wonder about pfr xr rng there. I know lately I have dealt with xr jams putting us to a tough decision. I assume we always call vs a jam?

Thanks!

Happy to hear you liked it!

It depends a lot on the accuracy you want to achieve and the stack depth, would say around 2x an equal pio sim if you are aiming for average accuracy.

As for AJ, I assume it folds to a jam

Great video Alex, interesting to note in the 99 hand at 29:08 it looks like QJ/QT/JT are low frequency bluffs blocking IP's folds from TT-QQ but a lot of the missed fds with two low cards or one high one low are bluffing high freq or pure.

I also noticed the use of the turn overbet in the delay line which I don't have in my arsenal, will need to investigate those.

Thanks.

The 53o hand BvB @35mins, what hands are you using as overbet bluffs that have checked back the flop. Seems by overbetting we can fold out hero calls with Q hi, J hi.

1 How do you adjust vs the SB player type behind who's likely to flat after you flat vs RFI?

2 I have just begun studying multiway basics and I understand "There are often NO large bets MW" AND "1st player to act isn't really supposed to lead/raise vs bet into uncapped ranges"
but, most mid-stake fields I play, in the tournament stages where avg stack is 50-100bb MW pots seem just impossible to play "well".

Very often SB/BB leading B50 or B100 and their MW bet on flop % being well over 50-60%
AND
If not the donks, then the PFR almost always uses the B50~B70

Could you please suggest videos where I can learn appropriate adjustments
OR
I'd request you to make a video about adjustments in MW pots basis straightforward observations.

Thank you,
B.

Hey, thank you for your comment. I am not sure if such a video exists on RIO and regarding making one myself, I think it is an interesting idea for sure but the problem is that we potentially face different deviations from our opponents on different buyin levels/sites - for example I have never seen sb/bb leading B50 or B100 MW and having a donking of over 50-60%.

Thank you for the input, Alex.
I will continue watching Multiway pot practical videos + try and focus on such spots in HH videos.
If not particularly above tendencies in MW, please consider making an Adjustments to "common population mistakes" in MW pots as a video theme.

Good day,
B.

When you notice AKo being called from BB + fairly correct river sizing, how do you factor your adjustment vs such player type?
When it is a pure 3b hand, is it reasonable to make adjustment from a single showdown?
1. Particularly interested in how you weigh in on their 3b ranges IP and OOP.
2. How do we make EV in the long run vs such player types?

Thank you,
B.

Against such player types we want to be opening wider as our weaker opening hands won't have their equity realisation denied by getting 3bet but we should be more careful postflop and bluffcatch/barrel less, especially on high card runouts.

30:41 I understand your arguments for folding ATo here, but I feel like you might be over-estimating how much Ax you block given UTG is mainly suited heavy and they don't bet them at full frequency on the turn. Tx no draw seem like the first folds here (like T7s), but if you're folding AT I think you're overfolding. At equilibrium you'd have to hit almost 70% of hands here versus this sizing so we can fold 2x, and weak draws like 97 or 87, plus the worst Tx. Anything more than that seems like overfolding. IP can still bluff K8s, lots of Ax that we don't block and then 66-99, trying to make some of our Tx indifferent. What do you think?

Alex Theologis 1 year, 11 months ago

Yeah I think i agree with your thoughts, it looks like a fairly marginal continue but should be a continue indeed. Thank you for pointing it out!
