Pretty much exactly my thoughts... and I think he will quite often call even A high on the flop and therefore hit the turn those times.
c/shoving turn with AK sounds like a great option when I think about it. It might be hard for us to get 3 streets from JJ, QQ TT etc., and I think he's probs going to check them back and call a slightly bigger bet on the river with them, and bet his draws most of the time so we get to stick in more money against that or fold out equity if he b/f's them.
thanks for the feedback :)
I might be wrong and get snapped off by Ax tho :P In that case as I said I agree with your points
We need to win ~36% and we have ~33% equity ("AKo" vs "77+,A9s+,AJo+ KQo" vs "99+, ATs+, AJo+") do u think I assume correct ranges?
Call AK vs decent stack and a 40bb reshove at the final table felt somewhat questionable (I dont say wrong) considering it was 2 small stacks at the table.
Previosuly I watched a video of a similar FT of 109 by Jono Crute, he seems to be an ICM specialsist. And than i saw you cover two people with AK in the beginning of the final table it made me feel sick. Awful ICM-based move i think. You motivate it with that you're opening wide so you dominate their ranges, and IMO this is no more than self-leveling, but you got lucky to have a piece there. Next time on FT you'll open middle position with AK and call 2 shoves from the blinds and will be busted by aces and kings.
And of course weird sb vs bb spot when you have pocket 88's. What was that. Look how you playing, look how ugly this is, Tony G is furious
On to the hands you are calling me out on if you really want to discuss them. In the QT hand I think any punter will realize it is a spot he can put a good amount of pressure on me by bluffraising the flop (bec of the shortstack). + there are loads of draws there to be semibluffing with. Dont really know what you mean by me analyzing his thoughts as a "ubertopregular", I just said I think it is a spot he can show up with a lot of goofy hands because of the shorter stack. We also get a very good price with a gutshot to go with it. Sure enough he showed up with A6o and checked the turn most likely to c/f. So I was right in pretty much everything here and Im not sure what you are talking about.
about the AK and 88 hands. AK hand someone earlier in the comment section proved that we don't have enough equity to call so I accepted that and admitted I probably made a mistake. That said it is not as bad icm wise as you seem to think. the example in Jonos vid villain cover us and we are second in chips. Here we cover both of them and can keep laddering at the final.
In the 88 hand you are not making any arguments, just saying Tony G would be mad (what does that even mean?). And I even said IN THE VIDEO that 88 in this spot is WAY to strong to fold. When I do hh reviews I find a lot of mistakes and talk about what I should have done, what I did in the heat of the moment is obviously not always the right play. I talk about spots where I did stuff right (in my opinion) and spots where I made mistakes so both you and me can learn from them and hopefully not make the same mistakes again.
Don't you think that (based on what you saw from your opponent previously) when you jam, you will be most likely snapped by range that crashes you ? Also, do you ever consider folding here to a player that seems to play sort of poor ABC, especially against such a big sizing (ofc his hands denies that statement, but it seems resonable considering the previous hands against him) ?
Today, almost a year later, I think 4b/calling is way better than jamming. Flatting is kinda fine too depending on the player. TT just does so well against 5b bluffjaming hands that we dont want him to be able to get away from.
Er det greit å snakke norsk her, eller vil du ta det på engelsk?
Anyway, I was just wondering when was this tournament played? It seemed like the field was ridiculously soft for a 109$ BI... Anyway, what do you think about check/shove the turn with AK at 29 minutes? And, do you feel there is a difference between the skill level in MTTs on the 20-75 $ level between FullTilt and PokerStars? Thanks!
Should be last summer or something, I am not completely sure. Someone else suggested c/s AK there ott, and I agree that sounds like a great option!
Probably is a decent amount softer on pokerstars at the current time in my opinion
Hope you liked the video :)
I try not to but it is easy to end up doing it anyway :P
Hi Espen , great job to be quit beginner making videos , please keep doing it ;)
I got a question , in min 30 of video you got Ak that 3b and get cold call from the button , asuming that his range its pretty face up in this kind of c/call normally are like medium pairs like 99+Aq and maybe some trapping .... and in a board kh5d6d3c could be more efecctive or prof to be smaller like 30% cuz were not afraid or any f/drws to make more room for our oponents to make some kind of move or to get call and make the pot bigger and force him to call a small value at the river ?
Thanks
Hey thanks for the video, def. learning a lot from you.
@27:34
Following questions:
1) On what range do we put villain, if he check/calls our Turn Bet? Flush Draws, A9 of hearts? J9 got there OTT? Given his C/R OTF can we discard a random eight, a Ten with weak-Medium kicker, even AT from his range?
2) Are we done with the hand, if villain calls turn or do we barrel a brick OTR? What size do we barrel?
3) How big of a bet do we call (if at all), if the river bricks and Villain leads out.
THANKS and I#M hoping for an answer even though, the video is an older one.
thanks,
2 year old hand, but I'll do my best. I think most 9x will just bet again unless he has exactly 97s (only clubs and diamonds). I think, from what I said this player will have some medium tens in his range. The turn bet seems to me now to only serve as a protection bet. sure it is nice to get him to fold maybe AJ or QK, but I don't feel like it is worth it, + it opens us up to getting raised again. Pretty confident Im not betting river if he calls turn, just checking back with the sdv but expect to be beat a decent bit. Also folding if he leads bricks..
