Hey Owen, another great video from you.
Wanted ask few questions about some spots. Will be waiting for your answer as i am very interested hearing what you think about theses questions/ideas.
@2:38 what you think about betting flop with intention to bet turn potentially smaller sizing vs recreational (70% vpip and 0% pfr over 10 hands) player who limp/call preflop.
I am thinking there is enough pros and not enough cons for betting on flop.
Pros for betting:
We get value from lower tx like T7/T8/T9/JT and draws like oesd/gutshot what he can easy call 2 times if we give him attractive price.
Very importantly we are not giving him free card (free equity). If he folds his 15-20% equity hands on flop what have outs vs us it not bad result.
We are loosing vs stronger hand like Qx 1bet on flop + mid-small bet on turn what not seem more what we would loose with check back flop and he decides to start put money in or if he check turn we are betting turn+river anyway. (i guess when he check 2x we are betting 2x for value with our 2nd pair good kicker anyway).
Cons for checking:
However if we check back flop we give all his draws/overcards free equity to improve.
Pros for checking:
Sure we give opportunity him bluff us off later street and KT can bluff catch with 2nd pair, but do we expect player with pasive stats who limp/call preflop and plays 4$ game to make more calling mistakes or more bluffing mistakes? I am thinking lot more calling mistakes with his weak pairs/draws and lot less bluffing mistakes.
Same @2:38 time stamp - With JTs being 18.5bb, what is bottom of your flat range there with this stack size? How much less bb would you call with this JTs hand there?
@7:05 opening QJo on 4 progressive ko being utg+1, would you open without antes? Would you open if it not KO game? Would this be your bottom of range there?- Would you open QTo/JTo there?.
Just thinking that seem bit too wide open.
