Thanks for the video Paul, interesting hands.
Real quick, in the QTo (2nd to the last) hand, I'm having a little trouble finding hands that we beat on the turn. There are only a few combos of SCs that don't have a pair and wouldn't have bet the flop. All of the most likely hands that you mentioned (weak Ax, Kx) beat us. Do we think that he is betting worse than QT for thin value? Thanks for the clarification.
I think when we call as well as the outs we have we have to turn our hand into a bluff at least some % of the time OTR as Paul did for it to be a profitable call.
Hey JR.
I was basically listing out his value range here. So yes, I think we're behind anything that's not air. The reason I didn't list out his possible bluffs is that there are plenty of SC combos that could be played this way at mixed frequencies. I don't think there are many specific bluff combos that I can point to as always playing this way.
LIVIDSC is on the right track here with his comment. This hand is basically too good for me to be x/f on the turn after flop goes x/x.
Enjoyed the video Paul. In the QJdd hand @ 18:05 you mentioned that you prefer to 3b the suited variants of your broadway hands in the sb and call the non-suited ones. Just curious as to why you think that way. I feel like the offsuit hands like QJo would benefit more from the fold equity out of position, so is the better postflop playability of the suited hands simply worth more? Or am I completely off the mark (which is entirely possible lol). Thanks!
It's basically that I'm more inclined to 3b stronger combos more often than weaker ones when composing a linear 3b range. Further, I can call a 4b with QJs (unlike QJo).
Great video Paul, Really Enjoyed it.
I also think its nice to see hand review on hands you still won, especially with the essential members and people playing lower stakes as well like myself, we tend to look at pots that we loose but never really review hands that we win, cause we think we played them good, Because we won money..But like you said we can still make mistakes pre and post flop and still win the hand, So showing players that yes you should be reviewing hands that you do win is just as important as reviewing hands that you lost.
That being said on the last hand with the A5s
Why not raise on the flop? Can't we generate alot of folds this way and still able to continue on alot of turn cards. if a 3 or 8 shows up on the turn or river i think UTG and MP will start to shut down alot of the time, and our range crushes that flop texture.
Look forward to your next video. Keep up the great work.
@ ~11:00: Isn't a 3b with KQo from the SB a little loose? Not a loaded question, but legitimately curious. What about in the 10NL-25NL range?
KQo plays well as a call and a 3bet VS a standard CO open
to loose if CO opens tight though
put KQo in a equity calculator against various CO open ranges See how it does equity wise,
Why do we want to play out of position with qto against utg raise? You said that was standard?
