Great video!

3:00 if 100bb deep do you consider a turn or river fold?

4:05 aqq9 if the ace were suited would you call the squeeze?

31:14qt87 you said double suited you would want to 4bet. Why is that? This hand has a middle and top gap and seems too weak.

36:35 kqj3 if we chk river and opponent bets does our hand make a good xr bluff? Would we prefer to have a spade? Does having a Q and J actually hurt because we block the hands we want to fold out?

Thanks!

Hello SoundSpeed!
3:00- 100bb would have meant calling another 14.4bb OTR. Would have paid it off blind vs blind but just something to consider had we been playing vs UTG.

4.05- yes, call with the A high suit and call with the double suited version as well(and not re raise).

31.14- I knew that from practice, and if I were to justify that I'd say it's a rundown that's not as smooth as say QJT9(which does not 4b ds as it flops better), so it flops slightly rougher and does not mind making bluff combos like AJJT:Jhs or AJT9:Jhs fold or make value combos like ds AQQ and AKK fold now.
It's not the only rundown that 4b bluffs though!
If you get 5b then you can easily call it off.

36.35- yes, we'd really like having a high spade. When we have Q/J he bets less often anyway. When he does bet it's AK and middling flushes. To fold AK out, we'd need a high spade and would ideally like to not have a K as I'd really like for him to have AK and K9.

Thanks for your very thorough responses!

With regard to the hand at 36:35 I have trouble in plo with overbluffing. It always seems like we have blockers in one way or another to do it. How do you moderate your bluff frequency? It is a much easier task in nlh.

you can ask yourself- what would value do?
Clearly, straights would not bet big. If they did bet, they'd block. Mix in some flushes with that sizing. As far as donk bluffing goes, look for a K:spade to do that. Ideally don't have Q/J as this is what you'd like for him to have.

We've already discussed where the x/r come from.

Taking your individual cards into account will get you more success as well as get your frequencies in check.
