Had a fun hand vs unknowns at nl100z last night.
200bb eff. stacks w/ OR.
MP opens 3x, CO calls, hero completes on bb w/ KJhh.
Flop: KJ5ddc goes x/x/x
Turn: hero leads ~90% on 5rb, both villains call.
River: 4rb, pot ~35bb hero overbets roughly 1,2x pot, mp shoves and co folds. Hero?
My thoughts: this is the best bluffcatcher we have but since our line is so polarizing and pop tends to underbluff here w/ this line ime, this seems like exactly 1combo of KK. Hero also is uncapped having one combo of 55 played this way 100% but obviously lacks KK,JJ. Maybe we don’t need to call anything other than 55, K5s here but that’s not enough combos from mdf pov since we also bluff decent amount here and split sizings w/ some 5x.
Also, I’m often squeezing but play this as a call some % of the time pre too, esp at this stackdepth.
Villain shouldn’t slowplay JJ ever otf and KK is dicy at best vs both of our ranges. Also 5x isn’t strong enough to shove vs overbet 3way otr. Villains are unknowns though so I guess everything is possible if they suck. Obv calling is really bad if OR can show up w/ 5x otr.
Sorry for the messy HH btw blush

yeah looking back I think given opponents range on this texture I think a flop c/r could be worked in here too maybe.

If there was a backdoor flush card OTTI would be more tempted to call however and re-evaluate river

Yeah im making the fold v reg at 25nl. There's so much better value hands he's betting and thats really not a board that average regs at 25nl double barrel Ax air. Also an average reg will probably check worse Jx on turn as he won't be scared of many rivers and will know he cannot get 3 streets of value

TheAstiAsti yeah fair enough. I defo think the turns a bet though then its less of a guessing game come river :)
Nov. 16, 2018 | 7:54 p.m.
TheAstiAsti yeah as the Dddogkillah said for value and to mainly deny equity. I do not want to give villain a free card on this board. What villain checks a K in the above? If i bet turn and he calls and c/f most rivers despite it being exploitable by regs it is still an exploit fold imo.
Why would you not be a fan of cbetting this flop against an average regs 3b calling range on the button TheAstiAsti ?

as played though fold :)
Nov. 16, 2018 | 5:59 p.m.
That is a strange hand. If i were you I would lean towards betting turn with most of your range when the flops checked through to avoid awkward spots like this though I can understand why you checked that turn. Just on the flop too I would nearly always be c-betting near entire 3b range on that board.

Great Video. New here and thats the first of your videos I've seen.
I think it would be beneficial to maybe record your session in advance and pause when you are discussing something. I just find myself start stopping alot which is fine but I would rather you do that tbh. I find you have alot more info in one vid and I want to soak up every bit of it so maybe start/stopping would be better in future. If you can't don't worry about it because I don't mind doing it myself :)

say raise turn to ~2, what you doing on river? I'm guessing c/f to a bet which i like, no real bluffs then in his range
Nov. 16, 2018 | 10:58 a.m.
yeah weird hand. I'm calling against the player you described and it would be a really tough spot against a reg, honestly not sure
Nov. 16, 2018 | 10:52 a.m.
This is an interesting hand and flop is definitely player dependent for me between GII and calling but as a population of 25z i'd definitely lean towards calling. Not great having Ad but as you say there is worse they will GII with.
I wouldn't be betting turn 3 ways and as played I think is fine
Nov. 16, 2018 | 10:49 a.m.
If you have him down as an aggro reg then i would definitely call this river.
Bluffs J10 combos
He could be betting for value with worse here. Given you called flop you are weighted towards Qx so he is fine value betting all the strong Ax hands on the turn and on the river as piownu said he can be value betting all the worse Ax hands for value aswell as J10

Maybe an idea for next video would be similar scenarios except multiway? loving the content

Another great video man, keep em coming

Hi Viktor Luis Larsson, at 36:34 if in fact you did c/r flop would you continue barrelling on that particular turn card or would it just be one and done?
