I liked NL part.
Didnt like PLO part too much. First of all I think you calculated it incorrectly. You already put in 3k which covers the main pot. Lets say u have there 10% equity so you get like 1200$ out of that main pot. What matters is how much equity you have @ sidepot vs UTG. You have to put 3140$ into sidepot vs UTG. You need to get 1940$+ back from sidepot to breakeven, right? (because u get 1200$ from mainpot).
Sidepot: 3140*2=6280.
Return needed: 1940$
1940/6280=So you need to have 31%+ equity vs UTG @ sidepot to breakeven.
(sums might be slighty incorrect, but hopefully you got my point).
Please correct me if im wrong :)

I really hate 55 raising on A95ss, cant imagine how could u be balanced since I dont think you would bluff there a lot. I think you have AQ-AT a alot there and calling for sure with those.

Why so big sizing if 3bet? (#1 hand)

Bet-GII with dry nutstr8 (well u had 2x backdoors) on 765r feels bad.
I think you should have 98 there sometimes after checking back. "Dry" nutstr8 seems to be the one. Or if you would checkback there with 98 sometimes do u choose those with 0-1 backdoorFD's.

29:00 -> No chance he was bluffing? You though about folding A8 - so I think you would have folded lonely 8 there?

1) Im hoping to see more good theory videos in the future. Especially for PLO 6max.
There are a lot good videos for game itself, but not so much theory in those. Would be nice to see some math wizard opening GTO in Powerpoint. Also BTN play in opened pots / BTN vs blinds / Blinds vs BTN etc.
2) Maybe a video which focuses how to calculate hand step by step. There are some calculations in the middle of replayers, but hard to find those from old videos if needed.
3) Also videos for Hem2 use. For example how to find leaks in own game etc. etc.
I have done some of the 2 & 3 stuff before, but would like to do more in the future.

Still waiting App for Samsung TV. That would be awesome :)

Nice video even though I dont agree everything :)
Would be nice to see some database:
a) defending bb HU vs different positions(ranges) with bottom30% range (70%-100%)
b) defending bb vs 2 opponents with bottom30% range.
Its hard to imagine its +ev(lose less than 1bb/hand) to call with T652 3s that bb, even though our position isnt that bad there.
In some point of video u say something "even though we cant realize all equity, its same for opponents also". (Dont remember words exactly because watched few hours ago). But isnt it that if we cant realize all of our raw equity our oppponent(s) will realize more equity than raw equity. Shouldnt it always be 100%?

Obv superstandard. Fish has 0,5 SPR and 3bettor 1,5 SPR. If behind still some outs.

Cant get this hand out of my mind. Are we checking our good holdings here also? I kinda doesnt like that since he shouldnt be stabbing a lot if we do check our whole range (or most of our range). I think we can small cbet-fold this and continue profitable when called (our range is still superstrong).

Had to stop video after that hand and find if there are any comments about it. It felt pretty nitty. I might find a reason to check-fold now when Phil explained it a bit more even though it still feels akward.
What if he would bet smaller, whats our plan then?

If it would be all in situation you would need 31,5%. You have 27,3%. At best you have 12 outs out of 44(we know he has 5 so we know 8 cards out of 52 -> 12/44). + Sometimes you split with 7r if you get to showdown. If he has redraw to full house or clubs we would be in very bad shape.
I guess the question here is do we have implied odds or reverse implied odds. Your hand looks a lot like clubdraw so he could find a check-fold even with 3:1 odds at river. Sometimes when we hit our FH we lose to bigger one.
How about flop. First I dont think its possible to put him 100% 75xx (even though its the most likely hand). So I put him to range (8875,7665,7544,8765,975,75:cc,8754,887,T97:cc,9876,9977:cc,T988,8877,8855):10%-50%.
If he is raising only 75 + some sort of redraw with this range he has 65,5% of time str8. And we have 47,7% equity. If he is raising all the 75 combos(without redraw also) he has str8 85% of time.
With 6100$ stack(not known exactly) we would need 46,7% to get it in at flop.
Vs 75+redraw we have 47,7%, Vs all 75xx we have 49,9%. Vs 100% 75(nothing else) we have 49,9 also. Vs 100% str + some redraw we have 47,3%. So we could just shove flop, but ofc we are most likely able to play it more +ev by calling.
Hope my calculations are correct.
Turn is close. If he really is only raising flop with 75+redraw (he shouldnt raise without redraw) I would fold because he blocks somehow our hand. Then it might be a fold. If he is almost always calling it off when club comes then its a call.

If he has J9+ or big draw I think shove is the worst option. I would call turn and call river with atleast non spade A,K,8,6,4,3,2 + J/5. Its getting interesting if random spade comes and he checks. Could we turn it into a bluff, even against one hand (J9). Maybe not, cos he might be check-calling with medium-flushes.
Good post.

1:40 top middle. Is that KJJ3ssJ even close to standard PF call and if so for what reasons. I think its way too loose.
Jan. 8, 2014 | 12:33 p.m.
Can we really do anything but pot-call here with AAxx when we have less than 1,5 SPR on flop? If stacks were deeper I would like this more. When you decided to check I agree that its better to check-call than CR since our hand/line doesnt look like T8+ and we shouldnt lose action to our outs + we gain more FE on blank turns.
What if Eire would have checked back that turn? I think we are checking river as well (still repping AAxx).

Haha nitty. You also dont have to take it so seriously... Like Rast didnt...
