Unpolarized means "not polarized";
Which is different from merged (that means your range is top x%).

Comment | JohnM commented on A tournament spot

Preflop is a call, then bet flop to protect (he'll fold a lot of hands with 6 outs). As played you can go for 220 river or smthing like that, just try to make him call some shit, coz I think he would have bet a K or a T.

Hello,

http://weaktight.com/7391235

Villain is a reg, open 25% from CO overall (probably more around 30% here , BTN is nittish), 4.5% 4bet range,20% fold to 3bet, I 3bet overall 8% in this spot.

Flop: I don't think it hit my range that hardly and well about this particular hand, the meriteof cbetting seems obscure to me, but could easily be proved wrong and don't see my range as well constructed at all anyway.

River: Pretty certain that villain will close to never bluff shove, but he could have some low flush... But the main concern I have comes from my own range, except some AsA/KsK(QJ/QT)r it is hard to see what I could turn into a bluff i might say. 9hi straight+ blockerflush ?

My sizing seems too big as well,

opinions ? :)

I have to point out that they are not only mocking islam, but every religion, and many people (everyone posting only islamic cartoons make it look a bit hateful :D).

Interesting discussion about sizings. How do you adjust when average BB is getting lower, do you cbet more? Or do you keep the same strat (and lower the sizing anyway)?

Nov. 14, 2014 | 12:10 a.m.

Check flop, vs 2 players, JTss is really hitting their range.
As played you can't lead the turn, it makes no sens, being raise flop and leading turn, you will make him fold all the hands you beat, let him continue his bluff. On the river, betting or x/calling are fine I guess. I'll check call if villain is aggro, bet if he's passive.

Nov. 14, 2014 | 12:02 a.m.

Your odds are just too good here to fold, there's a lot of missed draws, 56 etc, he can blockbet with a worse Ace. Nh.

Bet more on the turn. Nh.

Comment | JohnM commented on [nl50] bluff vs weakness

Exploiting weakness is cool, but here with this hand, I'll just give up, if you are against an A, you have no equity. Or bet instead of x/r. I don't think he'll fold an Ace vs x/r.

Nov. 13, 2014 | 11:55 p.m.

You need some notes here on villain, to know what kind of hands he's x/raising, how he acts when he's bluffing and miss etc. The river 7 makes me want to call. ^^
If you fold river here, you probably should fold directly on the turn.

Nov. 13, 2014 | 11:51 p.m.

When you are IP it's better to just call. I won't have any raising range here, so you keep your range wide, and it's more difficult for your opponent to put you on a hand, and thus to play against you.

Nov. 13, 2014 | 11:46 p.m.

Nah it's fine.
You will often get multi barrels to pay. With that SPR preflop, you can just play to hit the set.

Nov. 10, 2014 | 4:38 p.m.

As villain is sb and call he won't have AA, KK, JJ or AK, and we have AcJ blocking nutflush, he mostly reps 55 or QT with his line, and doesn't have a real reason to overbet in this case. So it's hard to fold.
And I agree with general consensus about bluffjamming (I played too much PLO lately I guess).
Thanks for comments.

Comment | JohnM commented on NL50 AA

I like to bet 4 preflop here. And on the turn something like 11, after it you have better odds to jam and you get called wider.

Comment | JohnM commented on 99 ip

I like to check behind here, and see what villain does on the flop, you don't have 3 streets of value anyway.

Comment | JohnM commented on JdJs OOP 99x 3betpot

You are not doing very well against UTG's range, so you should call this JJ preflop, and if you 3bet, go for a larger bet, against 2 opponents I'd go for 1.3.

I'd bet the flop, 996 is not really hitting his range.

And turn, as played, I prefer to call again, when you shove, you narrow his range, he will call with better hands almost all the time.

Sept. 25, 2014 | 7:46 p.m.

Flop is ok. I'd like to call on the turn, he can be on a bluff, and if you raise he will just fold, you don't have to worry about the nut flushes as you have 2 diamonds in your hand, most of the time he will have something else.

Sept. 25, 2014 | 7:38 p.m.

Leading turn here is fine I guess, your range is stronger than Bu's range, so most of the time he will juste fire 2 barrells, by leading turn you can get one more street of value against all his good aces, I think going for a small blockbet like on the turn (so you can do it with some draws too maybe), and normal bet river is cool.

Comment | JohnM commented on Top 2 oop

Oop on this flop, seems pretty standard to me. nh

"No info, [...] i always se him at the tables."

Takes notes! Even more if you don't use a Hud.

Preflop is either a 4B or a fold if you don't really know villains range, but as on the flop you decide to let him bluff, I guess you think he can 3B bluff, so I'll tend to 4b.
