great answer can you go into how you study populations and or how to exploit a player ? THanks!

AGREED 100%. Seeing mistakes has been the most fun /eye part of the process so far. Thanks for the advice I like that idea... And I guess to find decent ranges I can just load different filters into PT4? Not sure how guys are best finding RFI ranges, calling ranges and 3/4 bet ranges preflop...

so what does that leave his range at? I assume he would not call Q8 pre and would 4 bet KK-AA... I think 910 check the turn a huge %. I am curious as to what you put his range at... Obviously super strong to take this line, but I just don't see how it can be wrong to call ? Probably a spot that I lose a ton of $ on so I appreciate any responses. It does really suck he set it up nicely for stacks on the river

easiest solution is to tighten up a bit, and widen your value range. Id just play a stronger range than them and let them go crazy

Id def be betting flop as PFR. your line doesn't look to strong on the turn when you call $1 so on river if i'm villan i'm looking you up super wide since all the draws missed and I'd assume you would bet less with an ace

thanks for sharing hadn't seen this before hollywood is the man

Hey man putting this concept into action and it is really helping me call with the right parts of my range thanks! I found out I was really overcalling in some spots and over folding on other boards so it has been very eye opening.

My ? is how would you change your strategy if you saw villain check back river with an obvious value betting hand based on the action. I know this is an exploitative response and not the focus of the video, but was hoping for some insight. Last night I played an opponent who checked back river with AT on T 4 6 2 K rainbow board. And also checked back a lot of strongish hands on the river thanks

see it now thanks

my payment details are up to date and my subscription is current I can watch all other essential vids thanks for the help

WOW this is insanely good and thanks so much for directly making me a better poker player!
I am going to start doing this analysis immediately and my ? is can you describe the process briefly if the positions were flipped? Say I want to design my betting and bluffing hands on this board as the OOP 3 bettor, so I can really get a grasp on ranges from both positions. Thanks for the really really good vid.

we need this vid as essential!! Pretty please? info so many of us that don't know how to get started modeling this kind of stuff need and can't find it anywhere

Looks good to me you are not beating many combos of hands and i don't know what hands in his 3 betting barrel range this run out misses i say good fold

I think this is a great spot to check back the flop vrs an opponent who c/r this much I think J9 is ahead of him but i am not crazy about playing a big pot with my hand and works well as a check back because you can get to showdown alot and keep the pot size down with a good but not great hand 

AQ KJs, KK, JJ I think are plenty of hands to call river over bet with b/c its not like your going to have an insanely high 3 bet % vrs an UTG open.  I think the biggest mistake is not betting flop tho gives you no info about his range and your left playing a guessing game while giving villan the impression you don't have a strong hand since you checked the flop

Hand 1 yes def betting way better board for your range than his by far vrs both opponents this is a board you can put tons of pressure on small PP's with turn and river aggression, also and wont race bluff raises with air often at all Hand 2 vrs fish i'm def checking cuz he will call way too wide on that type of board and if you have the best hand i don't think fish will bluff turn enough so you can see showdown.  Vrs good reg i'm going to my hud cuz all regs are different and seeing what his calling % is and how often he goes to showdown-High went to showdown i don't think im betting- low im delay cbetting and betting river often unless board gets really ugly

i think that vrs the turn big bet and river overbet all in AA is crushed i think you have plenty of other hands in your 3 betting range that can call, you can fold AA vrs that bet sizing on turn and river.  I think betting flop and maybe turn yields you way more value and you get the added benefit of seeing what he does on flop instead of guessing on turn and river if he is bluffing pair +straight draw.  I think you have to bet this flop 100% for value- what was your reason for checking?

I hope you get some responses to this.  great ? i'm not sure how to figure out this exactly hope some theory junkies come and help both of us, just wanted to give you some things to think about

As BB you want to bet the hands that have greater than 50 % equity vrs his calling range only not his entire river range because he wont call with half of his entire river range and you also want to have a check call range and if you bet all your hands with more the 50% equity what will your checking range look like?  he will have a very easy time vrs your river checks because you will be check folding

wow very tough spot id look at your river range and see where Q8 falls and make a call or fold based on where your at in you distribution.  Seems like a spot where i'd have a really hard time defending enough hands vrs the river bet and a spot i'd be highly exploitable.  My gut says Q8 is not a profitable call vrs a pot sized bet.  very interesting post tho im gonna try and do some work with CREV and get back to you

when you call the check raise on turn and he bombs the river i think he is waaaay likely to bet for value- and you can easily have 2 pair and he doesn't seem to care.  most regs are check calling there non nut good hands on river and not bluffing enough with this bet size i'm folding and feeling good about it 

do you know his fold to 3 bet % I think im setting up a pot size all in on river pretty much the only bluffs in your 3 bet bet bet bet range would be flush draws and i don't see how villan can profitably call down with his bluffcatchers vrs a pot size all in on river.  would you ever be checking turn with QQ-AA? (i'd personally be betting them for value) if he does call you down i am going to make a note and increase my value 3 betting range preflop and exploit him post flop by value betting a strong range knowing he is sticky post flop 

just wanted to chime in and say that i'm really glad that rio gave me a present on it's birthday instead of the other way around :)

and cool idea thought provoking vid as usual

I agree 100% with tooth i am shoving over his small turn bet and feeling pretty good about it and making a incorrect fold on the river is very costly

I like the bet all in alot because he is going to call all Ax hands that he thinks are chops and i dont think he would really check river with a flush because it loses to much value NH

what a strange line by villan i dont think i could ever fold this hand but i dont know what worse hands he could do this with this deep on river.  All of his Ahxh are in his Preflop range.  Is he smart enough to realize what your repping?  If you think he doesnt get out of line post flop  I guess you could make a super sick fold and save yourself alot of $
