Thanks a lot! And definitely enjoying it so far over here :)

Thanks!

Like I said in the vid, I don´t think I have a ton of FE on the river if I bet flop and turn largish and get snapped twice. His range for snapcalling is mostly going to be decent TPs/8x hands and FDs, and I block some of his FDs so I think my FE on the river goes down. Villain can also easily have the backdoor flush with hands like 87dd, QJdd, etc

My approach on the river is very exploitatively vs a weaker player and I pretty much don't attempt to balance anything, like bluff:value ratio for example. But the hands I would bluff are probably hands like T9o/T9s without hearts and hands with diamond blockers like Ad7x/Ad5x.

You should always try to play optimal I think you mean game theory optimal.

yeah. Also if you watch his first series you ll see he already knows what you're trying to say. He seems to know how to exploit pretty darn well. :)

Yeah, I totally agree with you, when I was reviewing my recording I noticed this as well, especially while I was explaining the sheet. Not sure why that is, moving to Canada might have something to do with it or something. Anyway, I hope it wasn't too disturbing and I will do my best not to over-use these words in my coming videos.

Thanks for leaving a comment!

I guess some people may be distracted by such things. I never noticed at all. I was too busy following the content. Thanks for yet another well-prepared and delivered vid.

Thanks! And GL at the tables :)

every hand you call 3 bet OOP is hard to play when you have 100bb and it is HU situation.(22-TT,AJ-A9,KQs,KJs,KQo,AJo).
And he 3betting only (9 procent ,that isn´t so high if i read your Hud corectly)
my def strategy here is 4bet blockers and fold par, maybe it looks too weak fold TT ,but dunno how play postflop profitable with it.

I don't have clear answers to this but I I can give some considerations.

First your hand equity vs villains range compared with your pot odds is important. So if you play micro/low stakes it might be that 3betting ranges are just really tight and strong, so you don't have great equity vs their range, but at my stakes and also at 100NL I do think people are having enough 3bet bluffs in their range that the equity is decent enough to make KQo a call preflop. You can also choose to 4bet bluff this hand as it does have great blockers.

Nutted potential and playability are also important. Often suited connectors hands have good playability and nutted potential, pocket pairs have mostly nutted potential and a hand like KQo relies more on bluffcatching equity.

Third thing is that your preflop frequencies are also important. For example, if you fold too much vs 3bets, you become very exploitable and a lot of players will attack this leak, and this is definitely something you want to prevent them from doing. So even for that reason, opening tighter and/or calling more 3bets is good because you don't want to become a target where people can potentially 3bet bluff you profitably with ATC.

Having reads may lead you to exploitatively call 3bets wider/tighter because of the postflop tendencies of your opponent. An example is that if you know your opponent is straight forward/cbet done type, you can potentially OOP float them lighter to bluff rivers and/or take more marginal hands to showdown.

Lastly, playing more pots postflop and experimenting will make you more experienced and thus a better player postflop in the long run, which may increase the EV of certain threshold hands that now you think are -EV up to a point where they become +EV.

Hope that helps, GL!

Thanks! Yeah I build the format myself with Excel.

Yeah I am having a real hard time trying to recreate them. I don't want to use the exact same as yours but it would be nice to have a template! I can't quite figure out how to put a numbered list all on one cell in a table! I have spent way too long trying to figure it out which is obviously -EV lol.

Hey sorry for not getting back to you earlier (long holiday). I wouldn't say flop is terrible for us. We should have 77-55/98s with a reasonable frequency and villain will not. Given that, I would probably OOP float flop with our K-spades blocker.

I agree with your analyses, great spot to put a lot of pressure with exploitable strategies on villains capped range. I generally would favour a sizing that is consistent with our value as well. The problem therefore with overbetting river is that you polarize yourself that you might induce herocalls, and that is not what you want if you apply an exploitative stategy of (over)bluffing aggressively vs a capped range. I would therefore bet large/consistent on any card except a 5-7, K or A. So yeah, bananabombing a ton should be good ;)

haha I got interested in that too
