31:35 what is your thought on the 99 checking the turn vs delay value/deny equity bet. As it's kinda hard to call and play vs bet. Do we need to consider to bet for protection vs KJ/AJ/AT type hands.

sample size too small and from you 25nl graph, you running a lot above ev and you think you running bad? (graph bit small can't really see the numbers)

I rather have KThh to call the jam than this hand, since he could be jamming some Ahx,
pretty sure it's a fold, could be a call vs some villain since we are capped at 22/QT at most and are always b/f KJ

Comment | ssg commented on NL400 AKs BBvsSB 3bet pot

don't people 3b really huge at reg tables?
turn has to be bet ,
curious on people's thoughts vs a c/r on that turn
otherwise I don't really see you have a calling range after taking this line if you are folding AK(A4s is probably the only one if you don't check back KK)

and for the river I guess you can find a fold if you are vb/bluff really wide (as low as 99 etc)

I think people tends to bet more when checked to, especially when we have the fd+2 overs. and it depend on the villain more. you haven't said anything about villain. Vs a random I prefer a bet on the turn.

as played definitely raise river bigger. at least 90.

Feb. 23, 2015 | 11:32 p.m.

any reads?
looks fine as villain is folding a lots of one pair hands ott

Feb. 5, 2015 | 12:30 a.m.

think checking does cap our range to a few combo as we should be betting our QQ/KK/AA hands,(don't think we would 4b JJ though). But then again his range for calling twice is pretty strong which make betting not a very favorable option. I also dislike checking as if villain is decent,he could probably bet twice with hands like TT/KQ/KJs and we are folding like 90% on the river unimproved

Comment | ssg commented on NL200z 2pair Blind war

I'd raise flop with our mid pair+BD FD.
otr both vb/checking back is fine. I actually think we could b/c river here as he is betting most of his flush otr and he isn't turning his two pairs/sets into bluffs. so he is repping pretty thin. So I think we could b/c and expect to see Adx a decent amount from a good reg

Feb. 4, 2015 | 11:34 p.m.

looks fine except I bet a bit smaller ott

Hand History | ssg posted in NLHE: 200z 5bet pot with KK 400bb effective
Blinds: $1.00/$2.00 (6 Players) BN: $326.23
SB: $1035.56
BB: $1057.58 (Hero)
UTG: $209.12
MP: $662.22
CO: $793.10
both villain in the hands are decent lags and very clicky both,
CO is running 26/21/10.6 fT3B 39% fT4B 41.7% 4B 11%. he is pretty competent post and know how to put pressure on people

sb IS RUNNING 27/20/10 3B from SB is 10% and 10% 3b vs CO opens, he is very aggressive post and barrels pretty heavily on flop/turn and river


Preflop ($3.00) Hero is BB with K K
2 folds, CO raises to $6.00, BN folds, SB raises to $20.64, Hero raises to $52.00, CO raises to $121.00, SB folds, Hero calls $69.00
I'm not that familiar with stack this deep but I assume we still have a clear 4b for value. there are many hands we could cold call this deep,and KK isn't one of them. I expected to be flatted by SB a decent amount but we have the second best starting hand and position so not that concerned.

CO tanks for around 20s before make that 5b., SB snap folds. I think with stack size it's hard to fold, he definitely could have some bluffs. Maybe we could construct a 6b/f range here.
But I guess flatting is default. AKo and QQ would be pretty tough.
well I think we could fold QQ and not worried about the time we get exploited and maybe consider 6b/f AKo.
Flop ($262.64) 5 3 J
Hero checks, CO bets $86.00, Hero calls $86.00
standard c/c, I actually like the board as we don't block any Kd/Kh
Turn ($434.64) 5 3 J 2
Hero checks, CO checks
turn plan was actually to c/jam and not care because of the double flush draw.
But to my surprised he checked back so I was sure he didn't have aces
River ($434.64) 5 3 J 2 J
Hero checks, CO bets $356.00, Hero raises to $850.58 and is all in, CO calls $230.10 and is all in
river is a bit interesting I did make a spew/huge mistake, I think he does indeed have a some jacks as 4bet bluff, with AJ being majority of his range. having said that, I can't really think of his other Jx bluff he has as we block KJ, unless he is just doing some random 5b clicking.

I'm not sure how often he will be bluffing this river with his missed hearts and diamonds, I guess he shouldn't because some of his Axhh/Axdd would check the flop unless he had AKhh/AKdd.
My range on the river consisted probably majority of Axs with AKhh/AKdd being majority of the range I assume(although i shouldn't really be peeling with them pre), very few combo of QQ and rest is KK and AA.

I'm sure he is aware of this and he shouldn't really trying to bluff me off AA and even KK at this point after he checked the turn.



Thoughts on the whole line? obv ignore the river where I spew.
It's just that this kind of spot comes up so rarely so I'm confused

Jan. 25, 2015 | 7:03 a.m.

since we are deep vs both CO and BB, we should make our 3bet large pre, something like 24.
post flop sizing is just too big everywhere, and you mentioned BB is a loose on average reg, and vs your sizing, I won't be surprised it he looked you up with TT-QQ.

how would you played your AK/AA/KK combos? would you have sized differently?

Jan. 22, 2015 | 5:58 a.m.

firstly you are in position, so you don't really need to make it that big, anything between 100-115 should achieve the same thing, you didn't mention anything about UTG. if he is also a fish/rec player, then your sizing does make sense. The problem of making it this big is that it leaves you with the weird SPR post, which you did realize on the flop. if you think his majority of his range consist of suited broadways and 99-QQ, then obv you shouldn't bet, as we dominating/doing very well vs his broadway hands and he is very likely to check jam his pairs which we have to fold.

I think you could comfortable check back this flop being HU and could most likely call at least one barrel on later streets, which allows to us to realize our equity vs 99-QQ and prevent us making folds vs his 78hh/67hh type hands on the flop.

I'm not saying the default strategy isn't good, (sqz/ bet 1/3 pot), you can't just use it in every situation especially vs Fishes/rec, you don't need to try to balance that much.

Jan. 21, 2015 | 1:32 a.m.

think our 4bet is way to big, we are only 140BB effective anyway. and what do you think SB's calling range pre?
don't think we should bet flop vs this kind of villain in this particular spot. We are going to get c/jammed so often

Comment | ssg commented on 200z line check

Not in love with the sqz though, Rest looks fine, probably bet the flop a little smaller

Jan. 18, 2015 | 2:16 a.m.

Comment | ssg commented on NL200z set vs good reg

raise the flop or flat the turn.
as play, I probably just c/f, think he is gonna play his range pretty honestly on the river

Jan. 16, 2015 | 10:01 p.m.

how are you playing your AA/KK/QQ/AK/KQ on this flop?
I assume you always betting KQ/QQ, betting sometimes with AK/AA and sometime checkinng and always checking KK?

having said this, I think our range is well protected and agreed that you don't have much fold equity especially if you bet 1/4 of the pot, he is gonna peel all Qx and most gutters.
So i check back this flo, and looking to bet or call at least one more barrel depending on runout and villain's sizing

Comment | ssg commented on why run it once?!

because obv it sounds like RIO has bigger balls than other sites

Dec. 16, 2014 | 7:07 a.m.

looks like a easy call given your line.
tbh I don't really like your call on the turn, there are gonna be many river that you hate.

Dec. 9, 2014 | 1:53 a.m.

Comment | ssg commented on JJ on QQQ

if he opens mp 27%, JJ would be a 3bet even vs a 4x,
as played, just call flop, not much value in raising and you could already be drawing dead.

Dec. 9, 2014 | 1:50 a.m.

At first glance I would think this is always a c/f. But then I thought about our range with consist of nothing better than flush, and with flush, I think we are jamming > 90%. Which means we are mostly always c/f this river after we check, with villain to make a exploitive jam when checked too. But I'm not sure about jamming ourselves. As villain is probably folding 99-jj, and never folding a flush. So maybe there are some incentive to considering c/c with some of our range as his incentive for jamming river is so high

Dec. 6, 2014 | 8:57 a.m.

I mainly play MTTs, just jump into zoom whenever I feel like, I know ur SN and we haven't had any big pot together.

anyway that's what I thought, he got tons of 86s/78s/98s/T8s/ type as well as QQ+ that might also choose this sizing as we almost never hit this board.
with his bluffs, usually it's some hands with decent equity, at least FD or some 45s/A4/A5 type, So I felt it might be okay to overfold a bit in this kind of spot vs some good regs and you will just be running into a lot of tough river spot.

Dec. 4, 2014 | 10:26 a.m.

Comment | ssg commented on NL200z trips vs fish

well, he raised over ur ob not pile over it.. so definitely stronger. and I don't think we need to ob this turn as we have the Kd and blocking AK which could be one of his 3bet pre.

and AxJs, I think he would start by betting flop.
so you basically looking at drawing one outer against 3 combo of QQ or you are way ahead .

so just bet normal sizing ott

Dec. 3, 2014 | 6:55 a.m.

well you are repping a boat otr and bet close to pot and he still jams....
why would he ever jam a flush on the river

Dec. 3, 2014 | 6:37 a.m.

yeah people said things about sizing pre.
who would c/r AK9 in a 4b pot.. not like he is gonna b/c AQ on that flop.
just bet.

turn could be a check raise if you took this line.
and bet the turn way bigger as played

Comment | ssg commented on NL100 AQ in 3bet pot

yeah and lose to AK and take like a man,

Hand History | ssg posted in NLHE: 200z, turn spot with JJ vs a good reg in 3b pot
Blinds: $1.00/$2.00 (6 Players) BN: $303.37
SB: $279.57
BB: $200.00
UTG: $300.22 (Hero)
MP: $213.42
CO: $330.98
villain is one of the decent LAG reg in the pool, running 26/21 with 11% 3bet, 3bet 10.4% in CO and 8.7% vs EP opens.
barreling stats 61/49/55
I felt he has been slowing down in his barrel tendency recently in pots where he has little or no equity. usually just betting it once, at most twice, so haven't really seen him 3 barreling bluff that much.

Preflop ($3.00) Hero is UTG with J J
Hero raises to $6.00, MP folds, CO raises to $18.55, 3 folds, Hero calls $12.55
Flop ($40.10) 8 3 8
Hero checks, CO bets $24.30, Hero calls $24.30
Turn ($88.70) 8 3 8 2
Hero checks, CO bets $63.85, Hero folds
pre and flop is pretty standard, nothing to be said about those.

Turn is actually pretty cool spot., he bet pretty large pretty quickly, setting up almost a prefect river shove,
and i find here it's hard to assign a calling range here, probably KK/AA in case we slow played, as it's hard for us to have any hands, on this board if we play our range correctly pre.

thoughts?
Final Pot CO wins $85.90
Rake is $2.80

Dec. 3, 2014 | 4:04 a.m.

easiest snap ever,
go with 88+,AJs+ would never be wrong here.

Dec. 2, 2014 | 9:57 a.m.

Comment | ssg commented on NL200z KQ 4b pot

why is your 4b sizing so small? don't think he is folding anything pre, and post I think you missing a check somewhere, KQ is not a handed you can get 3 streets value on this runout.
