Steve Paul reviews the hands from a friend's session that didn't go his way to see if it was luck of the draw and running bad or if he contributed to his own demise.

8:30 vs a post, over limp, + iso, does BB still want to 3bet a polar range vs an iso range? We have less FE vs an iso range right?

22:30 I think this is a leak for many players who 3bet a standard 10-12% linear range from the SB and it’s a pretty hand getting a decent price, so we are tempted to call the 4bet. We just end up playing a bingo strategy postflop which destroys our redline. I checked HJ vs SB and these QJs JTs QTs hands are folding as well as KQs as we are just crushed by HJ 4bet range and are at positional disadvantage. Then I checked CO vs SB and there is still a lot of folding going on from weaker suited broadways. Something like JJ+ AK AQs continues vs Ep/MP. Then 99+ AJs+ KQs+ vs CO for the pure defends vs 4bets OOP. SCs and smaller pairs are in there but depends on your 3bet frequency preflop with those hands.

Pretty crazy how fast the student was moving up through the stakes. I have heard some of the biggest winners online are the ones that fold the most to 3bets. More likely to be true vs 4bets as well.

8:30 this one is super reg dependent re: fold equity vs iso. In my experience some regs iso wider than they would open - I'm guessing the rationale is other regs don't 3bet vs iso enough and wanting to play as much as possible with the recs. I'm inclined to use a polar 3bet range because a lot of the suited 3betting hands are also nice calls to play 3 way with the rec.

22:30 Agree 100%

Paul,
Enjoyed the analysis of this session. At around 8:30 mark hero has QQ on board of Js7c9cTsQh in a 3-bet pot. Do you think that villain under bluffs this spot and doesn't bet for value with less than a K in this spot? Hero can have a lot of AK as well as some other Kx. Kind of gross to river set and face a jam, but maybe make a fold here?

I think we're pretty unlikely to show up with AK here except AKcc or AKss. I also don't think IP will bet less than a K for value. Our hand is then just a bluffcatcher, probably an above average one since KQ is a very likely Kx hand for him, and very few/no Qx will bluff. As for over/underbluffed I don't have strong feelings here. Can't remember exactly what I said in the video, but I would lean fold but don't think it's a huge deal.
