AQ: 16:00 Why are you x/calling turn? On the river you said he doesnt bet Kx/Tx on the turn, So I can't see worse hands on the turn which are betting.

AA 19:00 Are you also playing hands like JT this way? otherwise we dont have blufs in our range

K9o 25:00 I think I like leading my value range on the river. I also don't see Ax in his range. I think most of his range is Qx/Tx since most of his flop blufs turns some equity and I expect ppl to just barrel those blufs. So his looks like medium value which I don't expect to bet river. thats why I like leading river with value (and also blufs like this hand)

16:00 Occasionally he is betting an ace aswell. And this is one of the few aces that can improve to a straight. But i agree that this is quite a thin call.

19:00 I normally dont have JT in my 4bet bluffing range in these positions. I would play AKdd like this though.

25:00 I dont like leading (all) my valuerange here. Thats because when we lead all our valuerange we basically lose every time we check and he bets.

He still valuebets sets, straigts and flushes i would think and he is probably folding his 1 pr hands to a decent donking bet anyway.

Hey Mark,
nice videos, watched all of them!
How would you defend your BB against an 2x Open Raise? I would say pretty much any 2 cards, cause you need such a low equity of just over 20%. Do you think this is reasonable?

Hey Mehrraisen,

Thanks!

Vs a minraise we need to have 22% equity ( getting 3,5 to 1)
Because we won't realize all of our equity being oop and being vs an uncapped range we need to defend hands that have more than 22% equity.
Its hard to say what beneeded equity really is.
The tougher our opponent the tighter we defend.
The playability of the hand is also very important. A hand like 72o plays very poorly while a hand like 34s plays better.

Thanks!
How Would you call a 3bet oop in ep lets say against a 3bet range of 5%? Which hands do you use to 4bet?

EluSiVeMark 10 years ago

If we are in EP and we face a 3bet range of 5% we immediately think that this is quite high and perhaps unbalanced.
If we have a tight range and defend accordingly vs 3bets he cannot expect to make money 3betting/ 5betting QQ, AK.
If we dont add those hands into his 3bet value range he has too many bluffs (0,9% value, 4,1% bluffs) and we can adjust by 4betting more blockerhands and expect tons of folds. If he does have the AK and QQ in his range we 4bet with KK+ and add bluffs accordingly.
