PS- your you know switched to i dont know :S lol, well, i tried charge my friends for swearing at poker 1 dollar each swear, but cant say it helped the issue at all~ and its not such a big deal, unless someone is teasing you
Few questions:
1) At about 3:00 mark, 834hh, you talk about peeling the turn to improve your equity, is this your standard instead or more reads/timing/opponent based?
You mentioned continuing on any non-heart, even non-heart cards that makes a lot of straights-that doesn’t make you a straight of course? Does this change if his flop raise is bigger?
Do you still call the flop raise if villain was 250bbs+ deep? This spot seems to be the most tricky when you 3bet oop when your hand is kind of faced up (naked overpair or naked pair + something small) against a smart opponent (I find myself in). This is a spot where I have been trying to make a 3x ish raise with something marginal (pair or pair+gutter or pure gutter with overs etc…) and have been finding a lot of folds. It seems to be a spot where they just have to fold especially when their HUD shows me raising flop so infrequent unless they filter it out for 3bet pots.
2) At about 3:30, on K45dd, you CR AKQ9 with Ad blocker, first of all I think its an awesome CR spot for us to balance the times we CR KKXX or K5XX or nutfd… Also when we hit two pair, we are often ahead or way behind and easy to play on later streets. So the question is, do you barrel off on any non diamond turn that don’t make us twopair or trips? More specifically, what is your barreling frequency on straight cards vs blanks like 9, t, q, j?
3) At about 14:00 mark, what do you think about bluffing the river (just betting the river instead of CR’ing river) when he has a ton of overpairs on the turn that is scared to bet (and remain overpair on the river) and weaker holdings (e.g. KT, your hand without the flush draw, other TXXX, trashy 2pair) when most people will fold their range on the river? OTH, what do you think about CR’ing this flop when deep w/ your hand-there are a ton of good double barreling cards imo?
4) At 19:30, you mention about if u had the Kc with your kings on Q48ccc. You talk K hi blocker on monotone boards a ton, you briefly mentioned in previous posts that after you can take out the Ahi blocker out of their range, you can use the Khi blocker like an Ahi blocker. Hand combo wise, they have less flushes and you can barrel off with the Khi blocker. Are there anything I’m missing out when you mention the Khi blocker in spots like these?
It seems to me that you have somewhat tightening up in this video preflop (e.g. folding j894ds pre utg), is this a case of i)shorter stacks on the table, ii) more profitable to play a tighter style, iii) tougher games, iv) u readjusting to how your opponents view you (but there doesn’t seem to be a lot of regs in this video)…
You just call with 3457 in the blinds against a min raise in the video. Do you think its more +EV to 3bet hands like these (i.e. semi disconnected rundown) or just to call with them IF not opponent based?
2) barrelling a lot of turns, just a lot of good turns for us to barrel, akqtj9 any diamond etc etc pretty close to 100% of turns I'm barreling here
3)I don't think people are folding overpairs here too often unless very nitty for it to be a good spot to bluff.
4) having the k blocker reduces a lot of club comboes he can have significantly, not just means if he doesn't have the ac we have the blocker to the nuts, so mainly it's more I think we have a much greater cbet % rate with the blocker and it's better to bluff with the kc than without it
5) I think as a video maker I should show more how to play profitably, and include less close marginal spots with mediocre holdings. 489jds is not particularly going to be profitable to play, even though I may do it in practise in some games. I have reviewed my preflop hand selection a lot and concluded that playing a wide range like I used to isn't the most optimal strategy, even if it was fun to do and I enjoyed it. There are some hands I used to play that are just not profitable to do so, and my only justification was 'whatever, it's fun and good for the game', not exactly the soundest logic in the world.
6) totally depends on the player and how they play vs a 3bet. if they're weak tight and folding a lot/straightforward postflop I like a 3b, if they're very tough and good 3bing just bloats the pot with a mediocre hand OOP where the initiative is not worth nearly as much. Also we have better odds to just call vs a minraise
I'm normally playing a lot more shallow games and therefor noticed you're folding doublepaired hands preflop like 6622ss and 3366r. In my games these type of hands are very profitable to raise, 3-bet or call 4-bets with. Whats your opinion on that?
Very good Video! I liked it a lot :)
I also have a few questions:
1.)
Minute 21:40 AKQ2ccc: You raise A73cc board w/NFD and 2nd/3rd Flush draw blockers because mixing it up but you said you´d prefer calling and raising more hands with Ac and a low club.
Minute 28:45 AhQTh5h on Ad6h3h: This time you call, what makes sense. But in your explanation you say we wanna keep the K/Q flushdraw hands in, which are more likely this time, because we can make more flush over flushes. If we raise, isn´t it more likely that those 2nd/3rd flush draws will continue than in the first hand where villain is folding almost everything but his sets/2pairs because he won´t have callable flushdraws? Shouldnt it be exact the opposite? Calling AKQ and raising AT5?
2.)
Minute 39:10 KKQ2r: Flopcall is obvious. Turnbet is obvious too. There you wanna rep flushes and straights in order to make fold straights/overpairs and weak equity. Now the river is interesting: Why do you bet? You say its a decent spot to bluff, but its not at all consistent with our turnplay isnt it? Your turnbetting range is as you said flushes and straights. Would you also bet 2pair/sets there? Imo you would check them behind isnt it?
Villains Turncalling range imo consists of weak flushes, straights, top2 and sets. It hits his range way more than ours. Furthermore would you bet the river this big wight Nut/2nd Nutflush or a straight? It almost heavily polarizes your range.
3.)
At the end of the video you fold J985s from the BTN??
thx!
