Nice video and very good explanations overall !
9:15 folding QJo MP. Are you pure folding this hand preflop? See a lot of sims pure opening KTo and QJo MP. Where I usually have ATo+ KQo+ from UTG. then ATo+ KJ+ from from MP as default, but have been mixing KTo and QJo 50% from MP open but idk if they are just break even hands and should lean towards pure folding them or pure opening them. I assume pure open if fun player is in the blinds and pure fold if regs are in the blinds? What if fun player has position on you MP vs BU? Are you opening or folding these?
Theyre a mix in optimal play I believe. You can choose to RNG, pure open soft lineups, pure fold tough lineups - not going to matter much. Here when rec player is IP to us and regs in blinds, think fold is good as we get cc'd/sq'd/go MW often which is bad for our hand
Hey Psek,
How do you get villains stack size to show up in red if it is less than xbb like you had on the player in the bb @5min. ty!
It is a setting in starscaption somewhere
i'd love to see an imbajimba style thing from you but obviously a lot of work so do what you want
Thanks for the feedback, will bear it in mind for the next recording :)
nice vid! :)
Patrick Sekinger with these frequency hands like J4s at lower stakes 200NL or 50NL anonymous tables when they are mixed and blinds have low 3 bet % but high call % being they will defend stuff like J7o or A4o etc at a high frequency would you recommend pure folding or pure opening these hands? Also would you consider the rake into this? This is more in reference to anonymous zone, so no HUDs. Part of me says pure raise because we realize more of our equity with the hand. Other part of me says too much of their calling range dominates us and even more hands dominate us because they are not 3 betting some of the strong hands they should. Makes post flop a little difficult.
I think the main concern should be the rake, although its not an exact science. I find it difficult to see compelling arguments to want to RFI tighter with specific combos because OOP is defending wider than optimal. This could make a lot of sense BvB for example where our eq realisation is quite a bit worse due to being OOP but when we have the positional advantage I think its fine.
Great video Patrick. At 17:50 you say that vs smaller opens we should 3bet less and vs larger opens we should 3bet more. Are you speaking strictly about just being in the big blind, or from any position vs any position and why is that what we should be doing?
Thanks.
Yes this is true vs all positions (although in high rake games playing cc'ss less attractive generally so there is this to consider). The reason is that PF you have a tradeoff between a) pot odds b) $ won when 3B and get fold. Vs larger open sizings pot odds are worse and the $ you win when you 3B and get a fold is greater which shifts our range more towards 3B and folding
Great vid Patrick!
17:45 - You make the comment that in theory you should 3b less vs small opens and more vs large ones (and that people get this backwards). Can you elaborate on why that is the case? Is it because you are risking more to win less when you 3b a small open?
