Don't mean to lather you two up too much, but after a year of membership. this is one of the more informative and entertaining videos i've seen on RIO!! Single board, plus solvers plus analysis of players real world tendencies. All most excellent!
PLEASE do more in this same format! Any game! You two together are gold!
TY!!
41.23 Carlos says “call by XD isn't standard”. How can that be true? We need 18,9% immediate EQ with our hands. Vs random JJ we have 34,8% and if you give a tight but reasonable range to Troutulator we get 42.9%. (pic below).
Also why are we so happy to start betting on 5th? Given we assume the villain has tight range we are not even favorite vs his range on 5th (pic below).
Carlos also says “bet is standard and we are in pretty good shape vs a split jacks which is villains most likely hand”. We have 35.5 percent Eq vs random split jacks on 5th. All in all this folding talk on the 3rd sounds a bit nuts given in the later analysis we randomly talk about Jd guy having even smaller pairs than 66.
I really would like to hear Iteopepe88 comment on that hand.
-I would call the 2bet on 3rd street, think that's super standard (but keep in mind that we need (much) more than direct equtiy, since our playability/equity realisiton isnt't great with this hand...Thats why a hand like TT-Qss (overcard against jack, 2flush) is much better, despite we are still a dog vs split jack
-On 5th street, despite 66-TQK is not pushing an equtiy edge, a bet goes in better if we lead. Against a normal range our equity is 45,6%. If we check villain checks back all the worse hands but bets all the better hands. We want to get value/deny equity against weaker hands (such as 22-Jdd, 67-Jddd). All-in all I think 5th street lead is superstandard for XD89
For trolingen i gave:
-rolled up jacks
-all split jacks
-wired pair, offsuit: AKQT, 2flush: 2346789TQKA
-3straight: lowest 0gap: 9, 1cap: T, 2gap: T
Given those three betting ranges above a fold with 66T no suits may be slightly tight but not crazy tight. Looking at equities only gets us so far, there are four more betting streets three of them bigger, reverse implied odds, and with ICM the chips we win are worth less than the ones that we lose.
We also need to catch some helpful cards while our opponent simultaneously doesn’t help himself tremendously. We can talk about what we need to continue against a 5th street bet and approximate how often we are can go on but if that number is only 60% of the time a 40% erosion is a lot especially considering many of the times we play on we may only have one overcard and are a dog but continuing due to pot odds in this ICM situation

While this video was informative I would like Carlos to be more concise.
