Nice vid Alien Slayer, and props to editing team for taking the feedback so that now we can see the stack size :)

Great format Alex, Triton's high quality footage definitely makes this more fun to watch with table dynamic and live reads. Gonna be another wonderful series I think :D
Very stoked for the rest!

Solid review Emty! Enjoy this a lot :)

Hey Horse! What a treat, enjoyed the depth you going into these hands, missed the part I due to holiday, will watch it soon :)

Hey Mathias - really good vid this one. Love the way you talk about your thought process, very neat. Thanks for the video!

so I am biased to call sizings that have close to the correct number of bluffs
what size is that? b75 seems more reasonable?
Jan. 10, 2025 | 6:53 a.m.
it's probably an easier bet/call when I look at my MDA
You mean these nodes actually get overbluffed a lot by "easier bet/call" from a MDA standpoint?
Jan. 10, 2025 | 6:35 a.m.
but most players have heuristics against folding okay draws and top pair, so exploitatively the play makes more money
Ah this makes a lot of sense! Does that also mean that when we are bluffing - we should be far more selective since with that exploit our FE is expected to be lower?
Jan. 10, 2025 | 6:33 a.m.
they have more two pair going into the turn
This has to do with the flop texture right? Say like this particular hand with 443r (or maybe a board like T72r) - Villain just has no reasonable two pairs combo in their call-3bet range. Does that mean we could size up the flop? Thanks!

Hey Jan - great idea of the new miniseries :)
Look forward to Part II!

Thanks for the vid Dan :)

Therefore, we should care more for maximising the here and now, instead of futureproofing for the vacuum
This is gold. Just helps my offtable gameplan preps from a more macro perspective.
Great thread, thanks a lot both :) Luke Johnson RunItTw1ce

I'm just thinking would
"if I'm trying to get villain to fold, I bet bigger - if i'm trying to get villain to call - I bet smaller"
a possible thought process for recs on river betting and is it reasonable for us to do some hand-reading if we think they are pure fun player who never study theory?
Jan. 9, 2025 | 3:55 p.m.
To be fair I would prefer your normal video (theory/PnE) all day everyday over PokerGo. However it seems RIO is collaborating w pokergo and pushing content with it.
So -- let me rephrase the feedback - if you have some pokergo quota to meet - making the ones with Gman would potentially be better haha :D

Hey Alex, thanks for bringing this 2.4x flop strats up! Pretty unconventional line, very good to have this sort of video -- as even we don't implement those, we know how to play against it when we see our opponents doing it.
Kudos! Look forward to the near one :)

Again, nice review session Dhruv, thanks for the vid!

If that's online play where someone RFI and we 3bet and get called by two 20/17/7 type of player, I think it's pretty clear that AQs performs better as a check than a bet -- but I'm not too certain about if that's still the case when vs super wide players - since there're just too many autofolds.

Yeah I do agree with the odds of hitting a dominating top pair is pretty good here.
However, when we talk about the table dynamics, you can see this game is pretty loose. You see player like Doyle cold-calling 3b OOP with T8s on the other hand - which means here the range is even wider with a tiny 3b and all flat call - anything like J8s/75s/K6s is well in these guy's range.
I'm Just curious in this situation where (1) villains have super wide range and (2) the board is super safe, a small cbet to achieve equity denial from all autofolds which still have 6 outs against us is reasonable?
Jan. 8, 2025 | 6:10 a.m.
Love this format a lot! Hope to see more in the future, thank you!

Agreed with skipping NLH is nice, thanks Zach :)

Really enjoyable series, thanks for the vid Nathan
Especially appreciate the part in 17:55 where you said that by looking back from 2024 to 2020 you can see many mistakes as an more advanced player of yourself. I think those are very valuable lesson to viewers too
Jan. 7, 2025 | 6:22 a.m.
The last hand 933ss you said for AQs w bdfd, checking probably outweighs betting.
4way pot there as the preflop squeezer on these very disconnected boards with weaker player who calls preflop with some pretty wide ranges,
how would you play your whole range — do we cbet more expecting them to fold out many random hands since ranges are quite wide, or we still be cautious and have some giveups like AJ/KQ type of hand try to realize/showdown?
Thanks Luke!

28:18 you said if IP plays calls, that allows a lot of mistakes from SB. How so? Later in the vid you said we don’t expect Doyle to lead our too many random bluffs multiway. so I guess both of us agree that Doyle’s range is pretty condensed.
Then I just feel it’s a bit difficult for SB to make mistake OTR here since his range does contain more value than bluffs and some common bluffs (like diamond draws or gutter) might just give up river understanding himself is blocking the bluff + IP still have some strong hands?
very interesting topic, thanks Sam :)
