In first hand you say you would drop 76 and 86 before 87 but 76 now picked up additional equity. Would 76 not be a better bluffing hand as it has more equity? I don't think we should be afraid of getting shoved on and having to fold.
Shit, sorry about that. Yeah, you're definetely right and it's a mistake on my part.
Good video. Would like to see hands where u call BB vs BU raise.
Also u seems to defend veeery wide, whats ur average defence range would look like vs 40% 3x open?
Thanks in advance!
Tbh im kinda torn about that. I know im defending around 60-ish there but i think there might be room for even more.
Good video Jonas, it would be great if u could do the same for bb vs bu. If u defend 60 percent bb vs SB, do u defend with 3 bets more than 15?
I dont think it matters how much you 3bet to your total defence frequency. At least I dont see it.
I like this format, but what I'm most interested in is this CREV process where you determine whether or not you are overbluffing certain spots. I assume it's similar to what's described in the Janda book?
I havent read Janda's book.
Im using crEV for mostly some basic functions - it's like a visualization tool. Mostly to not need to count combos myself.
And in this scenario I used a "what is considered standart" ratios of value to bluffs (1:2) and just quickly checked how many hands I wanted to bluff, how many hands I wanted to valueraise and checked whether the ratios between them are fine.
Shouldn't that ratio be exactly the other way around?
On the river - yes.
I really like your HH videos, good work.
I would like to see a video about bb vs D in 3bet pot. I defend from bb really wide, and it's really hard for me to construct a 3betting range from bb that balances well the obvious monsters.
Thanks
Hello, what is the meaning of abreviation you use in RST / F4??
RST=resteal, F4=Fold vs 4bet. Though Im not sure whether the latter one is exactly it. I really only use it for pop-up.
Really enjoy this video! One question though. In the J7 hand you said that A2cc would be a clear check call for the villain. Could you explain that? I would personally not mind bet get it in with A2cc on that board vs a wide range.
Sure, getting it in OTF can't be too bad but it's always nice to have some flushdraws in your checking range and obviously the best fds to do so with are the ones that have some SDV along with it. It allows you to bluff some rivers with other hands, it leaves you uncapped on some run otus and it's not like there's a lot of value to be had by betting the bottom pair.
At the begining of the video you said that when you raise as a bluff you want to have bluffs which you can fold easily if you got a reraise and not hands like nut fd.But having this kind of range isn't very exploitable ?On that board k95 you have a very limited value range (~20 combos )and if you don't have good draws to shove you will end up folding a ton when he plays back at you .
Well I will be using pretty much all of my combo draws to raise as well, so there's that. Also if villain starts crazy 3betting then one of the things is going to happen:
1. if he uses a smallish sizing I can still possibly continue with some of my stronger parts of bluffing range leaving me be able to defend about ~50% of entire bluffing range
2. if he uses big sizing then not only I dont need to defend wider than all my value hands but he'll also be losing a ton of money when he 3bets
With all that said I do kinda agree with you. I think at the time when I was making this vid I was overestimating the chances of me getting 3betted and overall with hands like nut fds we can still flat a 3bet when we're IP and not have a too hard time playing them on later streets. But at the same time this is like the perfect scenario for such - it's BvB and ranges are at its widest. So if you'd use the same logic for lets say CO vs SB/BB 3bet pot - raising again with naked A/K-high FDs become a less profitable play than just simply flatting as chances of getting 3betted increase significantly and the SPR changes to such where you can no longer continue vs a 3bet.
At about min 23:00 you talked about betting big when he checks OTT and i completely understood the reasoning behind it .But what about other boards or when he checks on the flop ?Still betting big trying to fold all his range?
But what about other boards
One of many things that I base my bet size choice on is board texture.
when he checks on the flop ?
If the villain was to check the flop then yeah, I'd def. be betting this hand. I don't think I'd be using big size though - don't see much of a reason for it just yet.
sorry i have one question
My english is poor.
so i want to use the word to ask.
In the last hand you overbet at river
how you evaluate his range at river?
i think he b/c the flop have some two broadway high card(AJ AQ AK) and some pp
or Tpair 3pair 5pair
you raise flop and check turn ,i think you cant represent strong hand at river.
maybe some fish will use A high hero call at river.
could you use word to tell me your opinion at river for your overbet.
thanks!!!
Well to be honest my reply would sound just about the same as I said in the video :D
I suggest you give it another try to understand my explanation in the video and if you've still got any specific questions about it - let me know and I'll gladly elaborate on those parts.
Hey Jonas,
Great video! In the last hand you bet 2xpot as a bluff on the river to get more Fold Equity. Would you bet the same amount with Full House, in order to keep this bet size balanced?
Btw, probably you didn't notice, but I sent you a PM.
Thank you in advance.
Highly depends on villain. Vs complete unknowns (but regs nevertheless) I'd be leaning towards making this size with my bluffs rather than value.
