This was a very good video. Regarding the first hand discussed the fact that it impacts your winrate to the extent described seems very surprising. Is the implication that you are a losing player at -4bb/100, and the next day you play this spot differently betting full pot half the time instead of 1/3 pot 80% of the time and now you're a winning player?

1 -I think the continuation bet is good. you might get lower flushes calling. 

2- I would not go all in after the c/r I think you need more to go with your nut flush draw. It can't be that bad to get it in here though because you have 11 nut outs.

3- As played I think you can fold turn at this point you are drawing to 2 outs against most of what he plays that way.

I think you've posted this hand in a very confusing way. How deep were stacks to start? I'm guessing 100bb. If so I think its pretty easy to get all in here. You block 777 and 333 so other than 222 you have very little to fear.

At 7:00 with the JJA6 full house could he ever be value betting worse. IF he has AK, AQ, 77, TT, or KQ could he go for thin value, since you called all the way, or would he just check that back?

4 Places pay out. Opponent is pretty reasonable. In a cash game I think this is a call because there aren't many scary turns and hands that are ahead are stacking us anyway. However on the bubble in omaha where equities run closer would it make sense to shove now to maximize fold equity?

I like the way you played it. If a heart comes maybe you are now behind his range. But are you enough behind his range that its worth folding with the pot odds you'd be getting? say 10% of the time he has 2345 7899 or some crazy bluff and now you're giving him a chance to blow you off the turn on a heart.

Jan. 7, 2014 | 3:21 p.m.

I think this is a tough spot. I don't think he has to have NFD+set. I think it could very easily be just a set. If he did flop the nuts with 57 I'd expect him to C/R the flop a decent amount so I think I'd call here. Not sure though.

Jan. 7, 2014 | 3:12 p.m.

Why aren't you 3betting some of the double suited hands that you sometimes do in videos. B/c of that short stack?

Jan. 7, 2014 | 3:02 p.m.

So you're saying he has to have the nuts plus a redraw? Couldn't he just have ace high flush draw or set?

Jan. 7, 2014 | 2:53 p.m.

I think its a clear fold. You have no redraw totally missed the flop and he's representing strength. You could be ahead of a draw but you still might have to fold the hand later. 

Jan. 7, 2014 | 1:08 a.m.

You're definitely ahead of his range and if he's passive you can probably get value by raising the flop. As played I would also raise turn.

Jan. 7, 2014 | 1:02 a.m.

Great Video. On the hand where you flop top set and the flush draw with kings how often would you check back. It seems like there isn't a lot he can call with there since you block so much. 

Dec. 24, 2013 | 4:09 p.m.

I don't think he has an ace very often since there is only 1 left. He probably does have a hand like a lone 6 and this indicates a check would be good since he is sitting there with a weak range looking for a way to win and might consider bluffing. Even if he checks back he has a chance to catch up. I originally thought it would be a disaster if he had small hearts but I guess it isn't since there's a decent chance he calls again with that anyway f he has other equity plus pot odds.

That is a tricky spot. I guess when HJ calls the flop his range is pretty strong because you took a strong line and when HJ calls SB is yet to act. I think I would check and see what he does. If he bets small or checks behind I think there is a decent chance we are ahead.

Dec. 19, 2013 | 5:57 a.m.

I think he can value bet JQ, J7, and maybe 67 and AT. He can also bluff here some percentage of the time. This is a "locked down board" which some people would consider good to bluff. 


Dec. 6, 2013 | 10:33 p.m.

What basis is there to say that HJ has a weakish range? All he did was bet every street. 

Dec. 6, 2013 | 10:24 p.m.

Tough spot. You have the 2nd nuts. Would he call preflop with 35? he can probably play JJ this way. Most players wouldn't bluff this way at these stakes but I guess you have to call. 

Dec. 6, 2013 | 10:20 p.m.

Every draw missed so its tempting to call but I guess you're too deep.

Dec. 6, 2013 | 4:57 p.m.

I think you played it well. His range is really weak on the turn especially with your blockers so I like the small bet. Same reasoning on the river I think his range is really weak. You can't rep a bluff really on the river. Obviously he took a weird line on the flop turn and river.

Dec. 6, 2013 | 4:52 p.m.

I'm very confused on the setup of this hand. Its 6 handed or HU? You lead the flop so it must not be him in the sb and you in the bb. 

Anyway I would b/f or c/c the turn. I think b/c is bad since his ranging range is ahead of you and you have few outs to improve.

agree

I think I'd much rather just call here. Was your intent to fold AA KK? I'm not sure he plays those like that. You block a lot of his full houses so I think his range is polarized on the river. I think he would have a hand like a wrap or AQ often enough for you to call with your pot odds. I think raising he folds often but in most of those cases you were winning anyway. When he does have a full house raising is very bad for you. 

Dec. 6, 2013 | 4:35 p.m.

I would definitely call the turn and not raise. If we raise I think he calls most of the time and if we call the turn we can fold some rivers.  

Dec. 6, 2013 | 4:29 p.m.

I don't like villain's call on the flop.

Dec. 6, 2013 | 4:23 p.m.

I would check call. With 4 players in the pot you are unlikely to have the best hand now and if you hit your flush you still want to keep the pot pretty small. If you lead out here you have to call of course but I don't see a good reason to start building a pot yet. 

Dec. 6, 2013 | 4:20 p.m.

I think you should fold. They both could have 2p+ especially HJ. Also if you raise here and get called you won't have much equity.

Dec. 3, 2013 | 3:51 a.m.

I would definitely bet. I don't think hes bluffing that often if you check. Also it would be a good card to bluff on so I think betting is best.

Dec. 3, 2013 | 2:50 a.m.

Interesting I would never check fold that AK at the beginning.
