But does your range in this case want to bet low? Considering that part of your overpairs are squeezed pre-flop, you therefore have little incentive to have medium size on this turn since you are going to bet a more polarized range, right? I understand that the average size may favor the bet of some overpairs that we call pre-flop, but I believe that part of the overpairs that have an incentive to bet this turn are squeezed pre-flop, such as KKQT, KKT8 and I find it difficult to bet overpairs that do not has extra equity on this turn.

Yes, your range usually wants to bet small when you are the first player to act 3way on the turn in a situation like this, when everybody checks the flop.

In this case exactly if we want to bet, actually our only sizing should be 10%.
Even if the BTN range is capped, because he didn't bet flop, UTG range it's not, because UTG will check a lot on the flop and both players combined still have a stronger range than we do, they have more overpairs and more 9x+

Looking forward to part 2.

11:50 table 1 jt84 I think I am unclear about what our bet is. Is it for value, because it seems thin? Is it a semibluff with the Th? Do we still bet without a flush blocker?

31:50 table 1 akt9 you said with a bdfd you would check more often. With what we have, why bet? If we get check raised I imagine we have to fold so it seems a spot to check back and pot control. With the bdfd I would want to check to avoid a xr.

Thanks!

11:50 Yes, it's a semi-bluff, but in the video, I said we have a gutter, we actually have 2 gutters, so probably a check would be the best option.

31:50 The logic is simple, you have to think about the EV of the hand, which can be bigger when we bet or when we check. The more backup we have in our case, the more the EV of the check will grow, and the less backup the more the EV of the bet will grow.
It doesn't matter if we get x/raise, it's not like we will waste a lot of equity without additional backup, but if we have 2 BDFD it's beginning to matter.
Blocking the 9 also helps a lot, it blocks a lot of his x/raising range.

You know, the way you explained the second part was very helpful for me in the way to think about hands whether plo or nlh. Learning heuristics is important and learning the ins and outs of blocker and suit effects is as well. But the simplicity of just understanding shifting ev and how it goes from one "bucket" to another is a great way to think about it. Thank you.

Great content as always Paul, really like the format. if you come across any commonly misplayed spots I'd like it if you hopped into monker/vision. I know you've done it before with flopping TPTK OOP in 3bp

Paul Toda 1 year, 1 month ago

I did that in multiple videos in the past but people seem to like content without solver more.
But, since you requested it I will try to do it when a good spot comes up.
Thank you for your feedback!
