Really enjoyed the idea and analysis!
I think it would be even better if you could do it in form of a hand history format, including the more important filtered out hands.

Great video, Tyler!
At 28:15, i really doubt katya will find enough bluffs on the river, he will have like 130 combos of A highs. and only 32 combos of pairs. So i think linus should always fold K high or worst?

Excellent video, Antonio! More HU content please :)
At 38:17, excellent discussion on choosing our bluffing range on the turn. But how are we deciding our bluffing range on the river? It seems like a daunting spot to bluff in general after overbetting turn.

Excellent video DrLuck! You are the best:)

another excellent video Krab!
At 50:04, how will you choose your bluffs on the rivers? It feels impossible to find correct blockers in this spot, as most of your turn bluffs will be have bad removal for bluffing river.

Nice video!
At 43:21, i don't understand why you have given full frequency of pocket pairs below 88s? I assume 55-22 will be 3betting only at a small frequency, and might even fold to 4bets sometimes? That might have an influence on his leading strategy.

Excellent video pete! Outstanding analysis,as usual.
At 36:20, don't you think this hand should be a high frequency turn barrel, unblocking his backdoor flush draw floats( KQ, K10 bfd), A5, A4, and blocking his good suited Jx. Also this will make for an excellent barrel on brick runouts, blocking KJ suited, and not blocking diamonds. I don't think we should even randomize this combo, betting seems much higher ev than checking?

The videos which i wait the most eagerly for :) Excellent video krab :)

At 15:42, i don't think we should be defending bare Jx hands to a relatively big turn probe. So do you think, Q5 should actually be a hand we should consider bluffing on the river?

At 36:46, on this board i understand betting small for protection with a lot of 5x and 7x on the turn. But do you think maybe we can actually size up with these hands?Because on flop, ip should be betting very frequently, because of the relative infrequency of trips in our range relative to other paired boards, he has no incentive to trap with hands like AA, or check back a hand like 5x. So, i presume a hand like 7 or even a 5( as most of the 7x have backdoor straight draw, they are likely to stab the flop), has more than 90% equity? So doesn't it make sense to bet big with these hands, and challenge his A high and K high hands to continue? As we also have an insane no of bluffs that we want to bet, hence makes more sense to size up.

Exceptional video, pete. Watching it so long after these were released, were totally worth it :)

Hi nuno, Excellent video!
I would really (and many others I assume) like to see a video from you in which you discuss barreling decisions especially in spots where it's difficult to find bluffs , because in HU barreling is way more difficult than ring, just using the high equity bluffs is just not enough. For eg, at 40:20, IP seems to have a lot of non equity bluffs which are not intuitive at all. It would be very interesting if you could make a video in which you discuss how to make these barreling decisions based on the blocker effects, equity and future barreling potential , and develop a pio-like thinking. Would be extremely useful for anyone trying to learn HU, I think .
Thanks for another amazing video :)

Thanks a lot pete. Great video, as usual :)

At 23:03, you mentioned if turn brings in the backdoor draws you will size down with your range, why is that the case? Like the theory behind it.

Aug. 11, 2019 | 4:14 p.m.

Exceptional video partrick!
At 47:52, what would your cbetting range on the flop look like? I feel like it shouldn't be too high on a board where both the opponents are extremely uncapped? Are you cbetting all your overpairs here? Also, which kind of bluffs will you be cbetting?
Would you really cbet AQ here, like you referred in the video? Seems too wide to me.

Aug. 3, 2019 | 2:55 p.m.

Great video! At 25:31, what makes J5hh a high frequency turn barrel? If anything we block stuff like J10, J9 , Ah5h etc? Also block his suited Qx and 3x.

July 28, 2019 | 9:40 p.m.

Excellent video man. I was really shocked to see you find that 89 spot close, then saw the comment lol :P

July 28, 2019 | 6:38 a.m.

Excellent analysis, really enjoyed it!

Great video, Nuno. There is a youtube channel called 'cashgame replays' which contains a lot of heads up high stakes content. Maybe you can review it sometime? Thanks :)

July 23, 2019 | 5:07 a.m.

Great great video Ryan, as usual! :)

Great video nuno, as usual.
The reason why I think 78 is checking so often is because they block the checkbacks from OTB, making his range more bets heavy,
with either bluffs or Kx, over which Linus can shove..
Also you gave A10off to Linus in the second hand, do you think calling A10off is profitable there?

May 19, 2019 | 8:44 p.m.

At 10:35, are we primarily betting Kx when we bet, and we are not pushing any equity, so doesn't it make sense to have a more polar betting strategy?

May 7, 2019 | 1 p.m.

Great video, Seth
At 9:53, Low boards with flush draws, when BB lacks a lot of pairs, pio actually prefers a lot of small bets on. What might be the
reason for it?

Also at 13:08, in the limped pot the fact that his range is fairly capped, and we have a huge equity advantage, shouldn't we size up?

Comment | Shekhar commented on Equity Distribution

Great video man. One of the best i have seen in a long time. one question, how does draws impact our bet sizing exactly? For example, i pioed button vs BB, 823 rainbow and 823 flush draw, on 823 rainbow, big bets are exclusively used, while the one with a flush draw, small sizing is preferred. Can you explain this spot intutitively and mathematically? Maybe make a video on this.
Also, answer to the first question which you asked in the video about why not jamming turn instead with a polarized range?
Great video, Thanks!

Hi ryan, was watching this video again, and a doubt popped up in my head. Let's say two players are playing equilibrium, so by definition can one player deviate from his strategy while other player is playing at equilibrium, such that his EV decreases?
For example let's consider a river equilibrium where the person with a polarized range bets such that the opponent is indifferent to calling or folding? And the equilibrium strategy is calling with 1-a of his bluffcatchers? Now even if he calls with more or less, his ev remains the same, provided the other guy is playing at equilibrium. So, should the definition be more like, if one player deviates, and the other one still plays at equilibrium, his EV remains constant, and not that, the ev cant increase. Or am i missing something?

Comment | Shekhar commented on Block Betting

Great response. Can you elaborate a little but more on how should we consider our flop bet sizing? I used to think it solely depends on nut advantage and equity advantage.
So does it depend on how many bluffcathers our opponent has? Is it because when he has fewer bluffcatchers, by betting multiple streets we will just isolate the part of his range which crushes us as he doesn't have enough bluffcatchers?
Can you maybe do a video discussing this concept, I am quite sure this is something which a lot of us are unsure about.
Thanks

Excelllent video!
At 16:04, the ip uses a small sizing on this texture. Don't you think its kind of a mistake, given how capped we are and how strong his of a nut advantage he hold?

April 16, 2019 | 7 p.m.

Great great video, Peter. Would really like to see more of these.
At 32:11, reason for using small sizing on this texture? Villian has ton of Ax and Qx in his range, so what do we really accomplish by betting small? From the pio work that i have done, pio exclusively prefers big bets on this boards. Although i see a lot of coaches use small bets on this texture.

Comment | Shekhar commented on 1-Alpha

Hi Tyler, at 34:26, how is our calling frequency influenced when villain villian holds a blocker to our calling and folding range, at 34:26. Can you elaborate on how have you come to the number 92.5, and the thought process behind.

Also do solvers these days take into account how might villains bluffing hands influence their own range, and adjust the calling frequency accordingly?
Thanks for this exceptional video.

April 12, 2019 | 6:42 a.m.

Thanks for such a detailed response, Ryan. Rarely do i see a coach put in so much effort in answering a doubt :)

April 12, 2019 | 12:15 a.m.

Hi ryan. Thanks for the detailed response but i feel like you might have misread the action. On the turn, you bet and he calls. So his range to me seemed like some Ac( few through as he flatted an early open, so most of his Ax are good ones, are likely to bet flop), 10s, jis at some frequency and then some flushes. And i felt like he had about 4-5 combos of veritable flushes in this rather narrow range.

Also do you recommend 3betting suited broadways in these position? I almost always flat suited broadways and pull my bluffs from offsuited broadways and worse suited hands.

April 10, 2019 | 7:42 a.m.

Hi Ryan, pretty good analysis. Would definitely like you to continue this series.
At 24:19, on the river, don't you think block with our range actually works quite well. Our opponent range also improves to quite a few
flushes, around 25% at least, so we don't gain a lot by betting big with most hands, and when we block we get raised by flushes anyway and possibly some bluffs, so we hardly lose any EV with the strong parts of our range but gain ev, because we get the same value against hands which call a big bet but now he also bluffs some hands and also calls wider with the hands that we beat.

At 52:45, while analysing whether or not we should call AQ, can you elaborate on how our blockers are influencing our decisions because we actually fold more when we are not blocking FDs which feels strange, or might be a good thing as we block his high equity bluffs.
