7min 45 sec KcQh on 9h-6h-2h-9d board. Can you help me understand the turn strategy here? Posted a screen shot of how wizard is playing this spot on the turn. Also the filter which shows how different parts of the range are played. Is this turn in 3BP with a 2.5 SPR being polar on the turn with small / medium size (33/50)? There is quite a few KTo KJo which would be more low frequency 3bets preflop betting the turn with a heart, flushes betting, only about half of the 9x are betting. Over pairs with a heart. Full houses only betting about half the time as well. Just not sure of overall turn strategy in 3BP. Not just this board but a lot of other boards as well. If we change this flop to two tone with the same turn, now a lot of KxQh are betting. Any advice would be helpful. Thank you
Also 29MIN (screen shot below) you said if you had ThTs combo you would fold. Don't we want to block JTh / JTs and unblock flush draws?
KQ - yeh a lot of mixing on the turn which I explained in the video. If I choose to bet all my offsuit combos then I will be massively overbluffing because of the ratio of those I have compared to value/nutted hands (given its SBvBN). In different positions I'd pure bet these offsuit combos because I'd have far less/none KJo/ATo/KTo in my range, therefore would be more balanced and I'd need to use AJo/KQo/AQo as bluffs otherwise I'd never bluff (eg SBvCO). As for the strategy itself, looks complicated but on the face of it it seems it bluffs when it has the A or K hearts, and checks the rest. This makes sense as it can fold out better hands and has a stronger draw to hands like KxQh, AxJh etc. The 9x and overpairs could do with some protection so like to bet.
TT - think I covered this in the video in some detail. My understanding is that from our pocket pair bluff catchers we want to block flush draws. This is because our opponents' highest equity bluffs will come from unblocking flush draws as I will snap fold missed draws, therefore hands like KQss/QThh which unblocks flush draws and blocks Jx will be strong bluffs for them. Therefore my best calls will come when I hold flush draw cards. Bluffing rivers when you block snap folds (eg bluffing with missed flush draws) isn't all that great a lot of the time -> situation dependant.
ty for the video, Gary!
Happy to see you 500NLz, thanks!!
I think that BB 3B vs BU call hand (on flushing turn) 51:30 is more of a block or check hand (with BB range) after x/x turn, rather than the 2/3 sizing used. I think most flushes continue barrelling turn after choosing to Cbet flop (from hero's perspective). I think your rational for betting your hand is good, however. All other hands look good, well presented.
"I think most flushes continue barrelling turn after choosing to Cbet flop (from hero's perspective)" - I didn't CB the flop so not sure what you mean...
As mentioned in the video, I think my betting on the river is quite polarised and I don't have many thin value bets (eg overpairs/9x as they'd check-call), therefore prefer to use the bigger size.
