Blind vs Blind Strategy on Dynamic Boards

POSTED Jul 05, 2020

Francesco Lacriola presents a challenging topic in today's video that still gets misplayed frequently in the pools: dynamic boards in single raised pots when the preflop aggressor is OOP. Studying this spot teaches important insights on when players shift to irrational decisions and the GTO discussion in the video shows why the OOP player can still implement a considerable betting strategy.

Hey Francesco, thx for this nice video. I always enjoy decent analysis of an categoric spot. One question for understanding:
OOP betsizing are kind of 1/4 or 1/3 for small and about 2/3 for big sizing?
But you mention an overbetting sizing for the IP-player and i would be interested what kind of sizing is usuefull here.
So maybe i can make a somewhat general adjsutment about this. Having closely running equities, what sizing as an overbet makes the most sense. More like 110%-130% or maybe even 200%+
Denying equity might be quite important in these spots, but on the other hand i expect FE to be quite low often.

Hi, in general I like around 120% of the pot for the turn overbet as the IP. It still threatens to play for stacks and it allows us to control the size of the pot by investing less amount of money on unfavorable rivers and still being able to shove on favorable ones.

Oop doesn't have an incentive to go for huge bets on the flop and turn on very coordinated textures, but we can consider huge bets on the river, as there is no more card to come.

Hey Francesco, Nice video!
At 2:50, I suspect your Ip ranges are extremely wide, hence there is relatively higher betting frequency from OOP.

Francesco Lacriola 4 years, 8 months ago

I think I used Pio's defense range vs 2.5x SB open instead of 3x, but there shouldn't be a huge difference in this scenario.

Wide IP calling ranges tend to interact better with this kind of board textures and worse with Ahighs or broadway boards, so I don't expect a huge difference in Cbet frequencies compared to a tighter range.

Great vid, tough spot to play for the SB, can you do some similar videos looking at 3bp as the OOP 3 better and 4bp as the OOP caller? :)

Francesco Lacriola 4 years, 8 months ago

On similar board textures or in general? I'll consider a video about 4bet pots, as I think I haven't discussed this topic in depth in any of my previous videos.

24;35 Do you think IP would choose smaller bet turn at a high frec if you allow him to ?

Francesco Lacriola 4 years, 8 months ago

Small bets on the turn from IP are a great exploit against players who have very weak checking ranges on the turn after cbetting the flop (it works a lot against recreational players who tend to bet too much their value hands), therefore end up check folding too much. Against a well balanced turn checking range bigger sizes are preferred.
