You may have been listening without sound, Sam said he thinks it's a fold and as an exploit maybe folding a bit more flop (expecting barrels from the sick one).

Yeh def be good to see some - It's a game that seems to be growing I noticed it being added into tourney schedules now...

Great vid Steve, quick question re effect of posting the bb. Say at 28:20 with 47o, all-in pre is -0.26, calling is +0.26 (26BB/100). But folding is -1 no (-100BB/100)? Does this make calling 1.26 blinds better than folding?

I love it when 64 suited enjoys.
Great video.

Re the JJ@20mins, I don't really think the word inducing is appropriate here. A small 4bet would have been to 24.5K or something like that. You virtually stick in 1/2 of the buttons stack to the point you would almost have to call even if he showed you Aces then jammed. A smart player like gambler here is going to know you are nutted. I think your sizing is such that he thinks you might put him on some polarized squeezes but are just going for it with something like 99-JJ since he blocks AA+QQ and those top pairs might 4bet a little smaller anyway. If he is squeezing polarized, you should be raising smaller imo to fold out the trashier parts or possibly induce some of the better hands he has that you do well against.

12:27 you folded 33 vs OTB steal (we're SB). You said no fold equity, and it does seem to be the case. But vs. a likely range of 22+,A2s+,KTs+,QTs+,JTs,A5o+,KTo+,QTo+,JTo we still have 45.6% equity and we're only M4ish. With the dead money, we only need 44.3% to get it in. Only +2%, but we could possible reduce some QQ-AA given the 3x open (gives us 47.2%eq), and once in a blue moon he may fold... Do you still think this is an easy fold? Obviously we are presuming later spots will be >EV, but we don't have a ton of time to wait it out. I think if the blinds were going up shortly, we may have to sigh and take this spot no?

Enjoyed this review. One of your best vids Dylan, thanks.

Good video thanks Akira. You mentioned betting larger on the 45J 2 tone flop at 6:20. what's your strategy generally on this flop when limped? I would have thought taking a more standard 'stab' size would be better (as hero did)? Will you stab this board with a reasonable frequency? If so, would you be betting small to give yourself a good price on the bluff with your weaker stabs?

Good vid thanks Stephen. I like the slower pace/multiple parts.

Good vid Owen. Is the ProPokerTools HUD you are using customized or just comes as you have it out of the box?

Enjoyed the vid Steve, thanks! One thing that interests me is the actual steps you would take to implement the take aways from this video into your own game when it comes to building ranges. There's a reasonable amount of videos that solve for a specific situation like this but the takeaways are always very general. The hard part is not the solution but being able to use the findings effectively in your own game. I realize players probably don't want to divulge their strategies, but what upcoming work would you be doing, and what tools would you be using to build on what you said "you can make the choice to use one size and get very good at using that size" (rather than making a lot of exploitative adjustments). Would you be building a range for a 150% PSB now in situations like this one? And using the smaller turn bet sometimes now? Is something like analyzing a bunch of somewhat similar type scenarios a step you would take (using PioSolver)...?

Really enjoyed this video, thanks.

For sure. I do thank the editors tho - I imagine putting these together would be extremely time consuming! Excellent viewing looking forward to the battle continuing!

Yep since the site update in IE there is now full screen button which is very annoying.

Excellent video James, more like this please!

Seems like the update doesn't work in Explorer, but then, what does?
I enjoyed this vid but to answer your question I would prefer slower personally. I liked the recent vid you did where you used software to break down a hand (think it was poker juice and then CRev). Thanks Phil.

Excellent video thanks Alexo. Really enjoyed the breakdowns. Re 'chipsandsalsa's comment above, I think better hands you only specifically fold AA, and possibly 3xxx (if it is a recreational player), so you do seem to have a lot of showdown? Do you suspect he checks all non nut flushes turn so are less concerned with him having a weak flush? It did seem like he had AAxx I must admit, possibly with a nut flush blocker...

Immensely enjoyed this video Phil!

Interesting spots, great video thanks Mark! Do you find players often x/r when you do the small 1/3 pot size bet turn after calling flop (you have under pairs in this spot a cpl of times in the vid) ? Obviously they need to defend against this with a decent frequency, but x/raising they generally aren't repping a whole a lot unless they adjust and have enough value hands in there, do you think that's what Muladkhara has done (he has JJ on T55 T)? Also you mention you would be balanced in this spot but it doesn't seem so since on T55 T you would have too few value hands if as you say you would bet flush draws and smaller pairs. Well, unless you consider the smaller pairs value if Ax is calling I guess... does Ax ever call there?
Great video Kevin ty! I noticed @14:52 with the EV difference you divided by 10 (the bb size in the 5-10 game). So it would be correct to ignore this step if we did a calc for stake 50c-$1 since 1 chip would be 1bb? (for example the pot on the flop is 5 chips (5bb's))?
