Very helpful. Good insight on hands and reads on players. Of course this isn’t possible to play live and have all the numbers but still useful information to look at. Looking forward to more videos..:

great video
at min 27:54, u fold hand K8s9s5s, what type of hands do u consider defending as a borderline hands on BB?
and some similar spot when u fold on BB triple suited AJXX when EP opens, u mentioned your Ax is often dominated and triple suited hand has less equity, what hands do u defend in BB vs UTG spot?
thanks

Vs Bu opens I want to have hands that can ideally apply pressure on at least some boards, so Ks9s85 for example could some times flop a strong combo draw that I am happy to build a pot with whilst the hand of the video with the low suits is always easily dominated and mostly just hitting mediocre stuff. So in general at least 1 high suit and some connectivity is nice, or better connectivity and a weaker suit. But staying away from the lowest ranks (hands like 6432ss, 7532ss...) . Examples that are fine defends imo: J865ss, K764ss, 9764ss , KJT2ss...

Vs UTG I would tighten it up and fold many hands that are easily dominated like weak Ax and Kx single suited , rather defending hands like A854ss , 8865ss ...
Also only decently connected ds hands and not ones like J953, T742 that flop very marginal and have problems when facing barrels.

Hope that helps!

I'm 100% that it was Kd5c9d8d. I was suprised you folded this hand.
And also KKQ8 rainbow from SB vs BTN. Probably makes more sense to fold this than the first hand. Question. How loose must the BTN be in order for you to play KKQ8r from SB? (in percent, for example 60% or sth)

My bad, haven’t rewatched the hand in the video. Still triple suited is much worse then single suited because of 1out less the times we hit a FD. So whenever it’s close I fold the triple and call the singlesuited.

KKxx rb has very poor playability OOP even vs wide ranges because we hit not often a strong hand and the times we do we can’t expect many implied odds. So I would rather make it player depending and only call if the BU is very weak and the BB also tight or weak as well.

uros19 & porshy I think you would get more thorough answers to you preflop questions by consulting something like a monker sim or (a much cheaper option) by looking at plomatrix

i havent run any kind of sim relating to this situation, but 28:36 i cannot understand why KKQ8r would be a fold in the SB 4 handed. i have been surprised by how tight monker tells us to play, but still i thought this would be a mandatory call 4 handed

great video, could you share which stats are you using in your HUD please?

Alien Slayer 6 years, 6 months ago

In the small panel are the rfi, flatcall and 3b stats for all positions , in the big one cbet and fold to cbet stats along with reaction to cbet and vs missed cbet, agg freq on all streets, donking, 4b/5b ranges and so on...
