Hey Espen!
@4:10 you say, that the ATs is an easy call vs. the 26bb button shove. What Range do you give this 24/13 Villain? Would you push or fold against a 2,4x raise and does this change his range a lot in your opinion? I ran the numbers trough ICM-izer and if we say there are 11 players remaining and villain pushes this range: 22+,A7s+,A9o+,KTs+,KJo+,QJs,JTs,T9s (never as pure air) the call is slightly -ev.

If we say he'd not push immediately all of his stack with QQ+ and substract this holdings from his range the call is break even (+0,01M).

Even I am completely off with my ranges for Villain, or it is not that clear and easy of a call. How do you decide (IF YOU KNEW IT WAS A FLIP), wheter to "take the flip" or not. Without reads I think I would have made a tight fold and preserve my stack/wait for a better spot.

Keep up the good work, thanks for your fantastic videos and cheers...

Hey thanks for the video, def. learning a lot from you.

@27:34

Following questions:

1) On what range do we put villain, if he check/calls our Turn Bet? Flush Draws, A9 of hearts? J9 got there OTT? Given his C/R OTF can we discard a random eight, a Ten with weak-Medium kicker, even AT from his range?

2) Are we done with the hand, if villain calls turn or do we barrel a brick OTR? What size do we barrel?

3) How big of a bet do we call (if at all), if the river bricks and Villain leads out.


THANKS and I#M hoping for an answer even though, the video is an older one.

Hey, just wanted to mention, that you don't check back 56Q Board 2:53, as you say in 3:30.

why is this a good spot? Villain is pretty tight, opens from MP, okay we have position, but we have a pretty active button behind us still to act. Our hand is easily dominated, is most likely behind his opening range or doesn't our hand strenght really matter in these kinds of situations? Are there hands we just call in this spot? You doubt, that the small 3bets are not a good play. In this spot you recommend 2,4x villains bet as a 3bet size. Is this your general recommendation? What stacksize in BB do you need to be able to 3bet/fold?

I struggle a lot in these spots, because aggressive villains will keep barrelling a lot of turn cards for value. Even on a blank turn or if the board pairs, if have stomache ache to invest more of my stack on a very doubtfull holding, and there is still a river to come. THats why i like your flop fold, if we don't improve. Haven't found another way yet to deal with this situations. Is raising this dry flop an option? Fearless/Aggro + Chiplead is a bad combo to bluff, isn't it?! :)

34:05

Why 3x, because there is no SB? I almost always 2x it in the middle and later stages, because i don't like to 3x with my wiide button open range. What are your thoughts on this topic?


With what plan do we call the flop bet? We won't hit our 4 outs that often. Do you plan to lead some turn cards, to check/raise turn, to lead, when the flush hits?!? You are the coach, but i don't like checking the nuts twice. I'd bet the turn and maybe c/r the river.


A lot of questions, but pls. try to answer them all. thx :)
