First video I have watched with the elite subscription, loved it

What a coincidence i was actually going over this spot today. I used to have a split range from the sb vs co but have been thinking lately that it is much easier to construct my range by only 3 betting.
Splitting my range appropriately was very tricky. I think splitting against the button works because they are more than twice as wide so u get to call more hands

Doesnt that formula ignore the range vs range equities on different boards? I know in your example the equities were 50/50 but what about boards that are 55/45 or streets where there is a bigger shift to 60/40. How will the defending frequencies change when there is an imbalance in the equities?

This is a really cool video that demonstrates the complexities of NLH. What do you think of "pruning the game tree" to make it easier to construct your range? For example, eliminating a x/r or x/c strategy.

The hand where you bet/folded A4s on the turn in the 3b pot. You said you expected him to call. Do you expect people to be calling those size bets? I have been betting much smaller so his check/jam isn't as attractive. I feel people are leveraged to shove or fold vs that sizing with that SPR

Hi Felipe,

I just registered to ROI and was interested in your second hand. Do you think your sizing on the turn invites a shove and perhaps a smaller sizing can promote the turn+river subgame? Or do you think that that his range is so compromised that it doesn't matter?

My general default range for someone cold calling in this kind of spot is TT-QQ, AQs, AK

I like your strategy of only checking back on this flop.

I think this hand is well played

In this hand you are 33bbs effective which is a fine stack size to 4b jam a hand such as 99 versus the described opponent. I'm not sure if you are going to be able to induce worse at this depth given the gameflow of you folding to the previous 3bets. Further, I'm not sure 99 is a hand that you want to be inducing with.

Yep - unless you have a read that says otherwise. 250 ppl left is pretty deep for a sunday and I dont think anyone is just gonna random shove an airball

Hey Didier!

Hand 1 I would range the 30bb shove as something like JJ-77,AK-AQ,AxJx i.e. the kind of hands that a player doesn't want to see a flop with and not have to play post flop. I think this range is skewed towards the AK, JJ type of hands. And with the original raiser yet to act I would fold AQ in this spot.

Villain check/raising TT,88,AQs,KJs,AQo,KJo

This gives you 47% in hot and cold equity.

Not sure if all combos of KJo exist since a nitty player wont be flatting these from the SB.

This leaves me thinking that it is best to muck the hand on the flop.

What did you have his flop x/r range to be?
