34:10 i overfold in this spot facing the jam. I feel like it hurts my stack too much to double him up and if he is a strong player i would prefer not to risk him doubling. Is that bad thinking?
Hmm, I think the opposite logic should apply : against stronger players you probably have a lower edge so you should be looking to take more marginal spots whereas with more clear edges passing up on some breakevenish gambles is fine.
On the very last hand 38:31 you mentioned that you could call a bit wider if you think the opponent is not jamming as wide as he should is the correct approach.
I'm a bit confusing here since if villain is jamming less, shouldn't our equity be a bit worse in this case?
Hey, I listened back and what I'm saying is that it makes sense for me to call slightly wider if my opponent is jamming as wide as he should, because of future ev considerations. I'm sorry if it's not clear.
