6:55 - What do you think of overlimping A6s on table 3 to make sure the rec in the BB plays this pot with us?

32:20 - I feel like our hand at table 3 is so strong here that we can play for stacks against TT-QQ. You say this guy is quite tight, so I wonder if he even continues T9s/98s/A9s against our BB 3bet. In a worst case scenario, he has 3 combos of 33, 3 combos of 55, 1 combo of 99, 2 combos of T9s, 2 combos of 98s, and 2 combos of A9s... 13 combos total vs. 18 combos of TT-QQ. And again, I very much wonder whether he even calls most of those combos that beat us pre. And if he does, maybe he hero calls us down with 44-88 at some frequency.

Welcome back to RIO, Tariq! It's awesome to have you back. I subscribe here mainly to watch your library over and over, so it was a pleasant surprise to see a new video pop up! I hope that you make as much or more money in the Ontario pool than you would on Bonition. Good luck!

So glad you are back! Your videos and your thought process are always easy to follow and learn from.

1:35 table 2 do you peel flop if you had the kh?

6:10 table 1 will you mix in overcalls from the sb with suited connectors?

15:35 table 2 kqo do you ever 3bet or call this hand vs utg being on the btn or do you want to be vs a later position?

32:52 table 3 you said having the heart is not good. Is that because we block his bluffing rng? However, having the heart makes it easier for us to bluff or bluff catch heart rivers.

35:13 table 5 with 99 I am surprised by the flop check.

Thanks!

Yah I'd peel one with KKh on that hand

No not really; I've gone over my DB with 1m+ hands and I used to peel SC in the small blind in those spots and just was burning alot of money. However I will say that squeezing them also doesn't perform that well so folding generally the way to go if the initial opener was the LJ instead of HJ

Vs weak players I'll 3b it a lot; vs good ones always folding unless there's like 2 calls in between then I'm just very incentivized o squeeze it; never calling tho

On the turn with KK yah I'd say the heart is a slight negative because when you think about some of his flop floats it could be like KThh KJhh KQhh and those become natural turn bluffs when checked to; so the fact he's betting turn and I hold a heart it shifts his range to hands like T9s, TT, JJ, QQ type hands way more often

I timed out the 99 hand! I didn't even realize somehow oops nice catch; easy small c bet :)

23min 88 vs SS - with him being shorter, is this making you squeeze wider? because 88 vs HJ 4x seems a bit ambitious without a read he is wide
