must be KhJh?

yeah just noticed that you can see on the bottom left

Yes I was thinking along these lines as well.
Also I think you forgot to put the flop texture into equilab when you were talking about range vs range in that hand.
and with KQs you showed that you have 54% vs his opening range but didn't talk about what range he flats a 3bet with.

Other than that I really enjoyed the video and I think you made a lot of good points.

Alright good to know, thanks!

Hi Steve, I found the video very helpful.

Around 45 mins top left table we see a BTN open and a SB 3bet and you say you don't play a cold calling range there. I also just play 4bet or fold there as well at the moment but I feel like this can't be the best choice in a lot of situations. Now that a lot of SB regs are 3betting around 20% in this spot I feel that it makes more sense to start flatting with hands like 88 or ATs, which have pretty good equity vs SB in position and also do alright even if BTN comes along.

We will end up flatting a fairly narrow condensed range but I am not sure how much of an issue this is given that we are IP and SB has a fairly wide linear range. SB also can't attack our capped range with large bets 100bb deep due to the low SPR in 3bet pots, and will have to play fairly honestly when BTN comes along for the most part even though BTN will end up calling with a wider range than usual. We open ourselves up to getting 4bet by BTN but he still can't go crazy with it as he has to worry about SB.

I play micros atm so it's probably best to ignore the above for the most part as people don't 3bet wide enough to justify having a flatting range imo. Would be very interested to hear your thoughts on this though regardless.

Just misclicked and flagged your reply by accident and not sure how to undo that, sorry!

Why is it horrible advice?

+1 to check flop

consider flatting pre depending on how fishy MP is

Absolutely not imo
If you can learn how to be solid pre then postflop will be a lot easier and you should move up quicker
Also you will improve loads if you can figure out good ranges and reasons why certain hands are good/bad for opening, calling 3bets with etc
If you just play then you will keep making the same mistakes and train your brain to do bad stuff automatically

3bet pre

as played I would probably x/r based on the limited info we have
would only lead vs very passive fish

call river imo

vs population folding isn't terrible though

don't usually squeeze here fwiw but I think postflop is fine

Well obviously we are happy to snap off turn & river as played
Just bet flop imo 3way with a fish behind, he will have a lot of stuff to continue here
Would bet turn bigger as well but whatever, guess it worked out, dunno how you could question your turn & river calls after you took a line which was supposed to exploit this guy for being too aggressive

3b/5b or 3b/c depending on stacks and villain's 4bet sizing (as well as any reads you might have)

I realise this video is pretty old now so maybe there isn't much point in commenting, but will give it a go anyway. Around 23 mins you peel Q96 and decide to put the 6 in the middle rather than locking in 2pair at the bottom. There is only one 9 left in the deck and you didn't discuss options at all so I am guessing you just misread the hand? I am fairly inexperienced at pineapple so maybe I am just missing something.

Nice vid as always.

Given your analysis I am not sure why SMB would jam AhXh hands on the river in H1?

Cool cheers. Yeah hypothetical I know. I would have some overpairs in my range there, not many but I wouldn't squeeze them all.

JJ hand was really interesting, I would definitely be auto cbetting there but I liked Ben's line so might use it in future. If the positions were different and the fish was in between us and the other reg, assuming we cbet the flop and the fish calls do you think it is a good spot for the reg to raise any overpairs that he didn't squeeze pre?

Q9 hand is ridiculous, I would be impressed if I didn't tilt pretty hard there!

'I'd rather check / call with QT / JT type hands, perhaps even 78'
These hands probably aren't in our range on the river though seeing as we chose to donkbet the flop.

Great video as always, nice to see some 6max

Yeah that makes sense, thanks

Thoughts on overbetting turn in the last hand?

Nice vid as always, didn't know SMB was such a crusher now but it is hardly surprising!

Good video guys, I have a couple of questions.

1.) In the 77 hand what sizing would you make it if you were villain and had JJ? I think it is a pretty good fold btw.

2.) In the AK hand vs m3nix you talk about his flatting range being fairly wide, do you think it is good to flat those sorts of hands in that spot?

3.) In the KQ hand you talked about villain flatting 3bets really wide with stuff like 74s, but given positions can he have that wide of a range to begin with? I like the flop check but I would have bet turn as I think his range is more weighted to pair + draw type hands rather than complete air. I know Simon talked about this a bit already.

You can't give him every AA and JT imo, he would flat with a lot of those rather than 3bet. Maybe just JhTh and one or two AA combos but add Th9h as well as some Khxh hands

Yeah I agree not with KJ. Was thinking more like 22, some 88 and some strong draws

Nice video mate!

Do you have an overbet range in H1 on the turn given that you expect him to raise all his strong hands on the flop?

Great video as always

Hi Lucas, always enjoy your videos.

At 15:30 you fold AJo in the CO vs MP who is presumably a weak player. Could you explain your reasoning behind that?

Hi James, I've been really enjoying the videos so far and have finally caught up with the uploads so thought I would leave a comment.

I personally hope you keep making these types of session reviews as I learn a lot from them; I think a live commentary would be interesting too but you might miss out on some of the really good bits of analysis.

As far as concept videos go I would love to see something about donkbetting, or check/raising flops as the preflop opener (maybe you could combine these into one video, or maybe you don't really recommend doing either at all very often!). Another video idea would be to take some hands from the forums that other people have played and go through what your thought process and actions would have been. They could have a general theme e.g. all hands were 3bet pots etc.

You were also talking about calling 4bets in some of your previous videos. I play micro stakes at the minute so this isn't something I tend to do, but it would be an interesting concept video nevertheless for a lot of people I think.
