Hey, always love to see your video. no doubt.
4:56
So what is the specific reason that we bet all the 77 but not TT 99 88 55 44?
let me guess , the reason is TT 99 88 relatively need less protection , 66 is set, so ready to X/reap or protect X/C range. 55 and 44 can cover some low card river runouts so it's comfortable to X/C. so may be 77 is the only pocket pair that needs protection.
but It's pretty counter intuitive to me to barrel 77 70% OTT. Isn't it too big? Idk lol.
I want to hear your idea.

love this AxKh > AhKx solver logic. I wasn't capable to think about effect of block /unblock AhJh AhQh.
I was like having Ah is better because it has BDNFD.
and also it looks like AcKc is good to go B/C on same reason because it has bdnfd and dosen't block dominating NFD Ahighs. lmk is this right XD
Thanks!
I think theres a few reasons 77 is betting the turn rather than higher pairs:
Folds out higher pocket pairs like 88-TT.
Gets called by worse hands - FDs. Although it can be hard to realise this equity without hero calling the river. By folding better and getting called by worse it achieves a merging effect.
77 doesn't show down as well as the higher pocket pairs - TT for example can try to check down vs IP's 99, 88, 77 etc.
The higher the pocket pair, the more it blocks IP's folding region. Looks like IP is calling flop with ATdd, KTdd, QTdd, then folding them on the turn. TT blocks these folds, whereas 77 unblocks almost all of the folding region.
It sounds very reasonable! Thanks for sharing your good idea!
4:56 matlittle explained it perfectly. I didn't realize it at all in-game, but yeah 77 betting the turn folds out better and gets called by worse.
24:06 yes, Ah is worst because we block a lot of bluffs. AKcc is good because beats all the bluffs and doesn't block any bluffs and draws to the nuts.
Thanks for the kind words:)
Great review.
18:24 solver likes to bluff with a5hh only and a6cc only. How do you go about figuring out whether to bluff a busted bdfd or front door flush draw? Is there a heuristic or shortcut you can use?
26:05 why is it better to have the kh instead of the Ah to call the jam? Does it just come down to blocking more bluffs if we have the Ah?
Thanks!
18:24, seems like the lower your kicker is, the better it is. Because they have to fold their worse fds ott vs overbet. So this means that otr, you don't block their folding range (because they already folded thei 86cc ott). So A6cc becomes a bluff.
26:06, You nailed it. You block more bluffs w the Ah. Kh blocks less and dominates the Axhh that are ripping otf.
13:18 - Jx8h river I suspect your hand (and range) plays raise much less frequently if you force IP to have a range split on river, or even if you nodelock for overbet/check. So probably not an error in practise even if it might be in theory.
Yeah well said. I felt that villain's sizing indicated pretty much nuts of bluffs, which then would leave the option of raising to be completely worthless. But true, letting villain have two sizes otr would most likely change our play.
