lovely video!

So if i end up with a minimum defense frequency of lets say 33% in the bigblind versus the buttton, do i have to defend this percentage alone? I dont think so. I read somewhere that you must split this percentage between the two blinds. So how often do have to defend as the big blind, and how often do the smallblind has to defend and vice versa?

thank you for the great video, i really liked the realised equity part.

Nice Video!

I would say that you should take shots at NL10 if you find juicy tables, but mainly play NL5.

Great Video! Really luv your explanations. Can you do an Introduction of PIOSolver? Basic things like how to use it and when to use it.

Edit: Only got the free version

Depends on villains playstyle imo, definitly can be a fold.
A small thing that I dont like about your play is the flop betsizing. I think 1/2pot is too small, you need to charge him a bit more, like 3/4. His implied odds of QT/8T for example are too good. In future I would advise you to bet bigger. You get more Value from his TP-holdings and protect better against draws.

Why dont you 5Bet-Jam preflop? I think you navigate you in a lot of trouble if you coldcall his 4bet. (like you did) Every Ace High Flop hits his range hard and you have a lot of difficult decisions. Do you think that his 4Bet Range preflop only contains Aces? If yes, it is a Fold. And if not, you are doing so well in equity that you can happily shove.

I think his range ist primarily A5cc-ATcc. Maybe A5o with the Ace of clubs. But I think that would be a more advanced play.

i think you need to raise the flop for value and protection. There are so many Combos in villains range like twopair, trips, flush draws + pair that have to call your raise and are in terrible shape against your straight. You build a big pot with a lot of equity and you make your future decisions on the later streets so much easier.

How could a typical turncallingrange look like:
KQss,KJss,KTss, K9ss, QJss, AKo, A5s, 55, 66
So in my opinion it depends on wether he is capable of having a hand like AKo in his range. Your equity/decision depends heavily on this fact in this spot.

Okay, makes sense. Thx!

Yeah, you are probably right, realising our equity is pretty hard in this case.
But I have one more question. Do you think that a 9% Coldcalling Range is far too tight? In my opinion, the button should include many more hands than just 99+ and premium broadways. Especially against a tight range from utg. You need a lot of combos like suited connectors/gappers, so that you can hit those 7/8/9/T-High Boards pretty hard? Thats why I would include those Q/T or JTs Holdings etc.
That's why it was obvious for me that villain has hands like Q9s/JTs in his range.

Okay this is how i wouldIanalyse the raise on the flop:

First lets give him a range that coldcalls preflop and raises your flopbet.
In my opinion we have a total of 32 combos including:
JT, AT, AJ KQ, 8s7s, 8s9s Ks9s, Qs9s

This Range "stoved" a combined equity of 54% against your holding.

If we put your equity of 0,46 into the ev formula we get:

Equity * Pot - Call
(0,46)(11,25) - 2,85
= 2,325
So your Call earns 2,32$.

So your Call there is profitable.
