first of all I liked the video!
I have a few thoughts on the a2s hand at 36:50. I dont know about the preflop decisions too much because I dont play a 2,5x pre raisesize at this effective stacksizes in mp, which should influence villans 3beting tendencies. However my first instinct going to the river in this spot was to shove the river to get him off the cobos of ax which we would be choping to.
You said that the ten on the turn is not a good card for us, but actually I think it`s better for our range than it is for his since the ten hits our preflop defending range quite a lot and our flop floating range too, whereas he is maybe not 3beting as many ten combos as we defend in the first place and should definitely check back a decent amount.
So I think the only calling hands that beat us he should show up with often are ak, aq, kj (maybe he flats that pre?), at, qq and aa, which are not too many combos to be afraid of. And I think calling for just a chop should be -ev for him.
The only down side to that is obv that busting there is pretty much a disaster...
The T is a def a good card for our range, however there is no need to lead it because we have a PSB left and can get all the money in on the river if we want. My main issue with the river are that even though there are only 3 combos of QQ I think its fairly likely for him to have it, as well I think my ace has enough sd value, that I would rather check and showdown because, making him fold a chop does not even out for getting called by better and its possible he could have QQQ, AAA, AK, or TT.
great video. At 27min on QdTs4s, Do you c/r hands that fold to the shove ? like 98dd or 65dd that can turn equity and jam if flatted but can't really call? Rather then just strong draws and nutted hands? In his position, do you flat the flop with AK/AJ/KJ and fold to turn jam unimproved without any additional equity?
also at 33min, on the turn with a2dd, it seems you have little to no bluffs. what would you turn into a bluff? I would think KJ and AJ dont always bet flop and dont wanna be bluffs so maybe T9s if you bet flop with it? Issue is also he has a lot of flushes so can't bluff too much but still, it seems like your whole range is vbetting pretty much.
I don't have much of a flop c/r strategy, I'm normally check calling, that said I'm only getting in 2x the pot OTF, and I have a hand that is vulnerable on a lot of turns (spade,king, jack ace, 9). While a 9 is a turn I'll stack off I often let him check back in position and realize equity with a bunch of hands. If we were deeper I would c/r fold hands but at this stack depth, there aren't many hands that do great as a purebluff, especially because I don't expect my opponent to auto cbet the flop.
If we were deeper I could c/r a weak draw like J8, or AJ, but realistically on this board, I'm gonna have enough draws that can stack off and while I may fold out AK, AJ with a c/r I think I stack qx, fds, and KJ most of the time so I prefer the raise.
33min., I agree, my range is very value heavy, I still need to bet, I posted a hand in a video a while ago (pca hand review), where I bluff AsJx on QJTsss8x and got the villain to fold 9x. In this spot AdT and AdJ are probably bluffs I could have, as well as something like 99 with a diamond perhaps. It def is a spot where I don't have that many bluffs which is why I bet small, however with the nuts I def need to bet something.
when we have the k9dd and donk jam OTR i think donk leading turn would be bad cause it would defo suck to get jammed on . i loved how you played the hand where you call flop turn and donk jam river when we are never good at the river for showdown
Lucas, great video thanks a lot for posting!
At what stack depth, if any, you would start min raising instead of 2.5X-ing? (either your own stack depth or average stack of the players behind you)? Also, do you think it makes sense to raise larger from EPs and smaller in the later positions, esp on the button? Would appreciate any response. Thanks a tone.
BIG 62!
Hello Lucas
One comment on your K8cc hand that faces a c/r on the flop. If I listened correctly, you forgot to include all 9hxh hands in his c/r combos which are beating you and add a reason to just fold your middle pair. I know 9h was river in that hand but you obv can't know 9h is still in the deck. I think call the c/r would be better in 9h 8h 2x flops where he's got some 2hxh combos (mostly A2hh, K2hh and a few others if he's on the wide BB defending side). Anyways, good stuff and good play.
