6.50 Top right
I am surprised at your Flop Sizing, shouldnt we mostly bomb this board with at least a PS Cbet? And on the turn we should have two sizes I suppose (~125% and 35%-50%) where our combo mostly wants to bet small.
36.20 bottom right
I do not understand the block at all. What is it supposed to accomplish?
6:50. I think this is roughly correct. I like dark 30 as a strat in a lot of these spots because I think people still dont play that well against it for the most part.
I like your turn split but I think given how little $ went in on flop, my combo is now strong enough to pick the bigger sizing (but it's probably the threshold and mixes across both)
36:20 I don't really understand the question. It accomplishes what all blocks accomplish. It allows me to put a little bit of $ in with some hands that reasonably strong but super strong. In this spot it's like KT/JJ-KK and some weak Ax. It also allows me to bluff for a smaller size with a few combos. I'd end up playing 2 sizes on river with some blocks and something around pot.
@ 36.20
I get that, but this is an Ahi board 3way where he stabs BU vs an EP opener check. He almost never bets Tx on the flop. So his river range is Ax, air and the rare trap and vs that range it does not make sense to block KT (or any hand really). Your value threshold for a bet should probably be somewhere around ~AJ, meaning you want to at least pot the river.
You might think block is fine as an exploit, but I am 100% positive villain is competent enough to raise appropriately vs that.
14:50 top right table . 88 on K87 I thought it was a mandatory check/raise flop on this deep SPR and unblocking TP what are your thoughts here? Just some mixing or protecting your Check/call range? I thought we could use some of our middling KX to protect our check/call range.
That was a pretty sick hand . His tank call is just crazy , sick nitroll as you said..
I think it mostly checkraises but there's some amount of delaying your x/r into the turn so that he cant bet turns w/ impunity and only face shoves from turn improves.
X/r flop is definitely the highest frequency play.
Also wanted to mention this, there are a few hands like that in the vid, where a certain play is fine at a non 100% frequency, but you just make them w/o any comment on frequencies or why you would always wanna do it in that certain spot.
The JTs rejam, the AKo 5b jam HJvsLJ 125BB deep, the 55 openjam for >25BB eff (you talked a bit about that, but am still sceptical whether that is the max EV play).
I think it's just a bit too loose in this position pair. The suited broadways do reasonably well all in but I should have either waited for a slightly looser position pair or a slightly stronger hand. It's just a mistake on my part but I don't think it's a total disaster.
Some of your flop x/c with a 9 or a pair (so T9, 89,99 all seem like decent candidates.). Maybe JT gets in there too at a lowish freq so you dont always have a straight on the straightening cards

Thanks for the great content (as always)
at 21:06 with the KJs, don't you prefer open-shove over minraise? how does your strategy looks like in this stack depth?
Thanks!
I think with 16bbs from ep im just raising and dont really have an open shove range until i get shorter

Hello Chris

Thx for the vid

37:25: JTs: Is that a standard 20 bb reshove low jack vs utg1 for you? I think thats way too loose.

Which hands do you use as bluffs on the turn in the 88 vs kk hand on k8710?
Some of your flop x/c with a 9 or a pair (so T9, 89,99 all seem like decent candidates.). Maybe JT gets in there too at a lowish freq so you dont always have a straight on the straightening cards
What is the theory behind leaving <0,5bb behind when all in in the 88 hand?
Why not just open shove QJs UTG @10:22 ?
At 14:27 bottom left, you open Q9hh LJ and fold to btn 3b. Is this a standard fold? Too tight, no?
