at 23.25 you say it would be terrible to lead in this spot, may i ask why?

i thought leading this hand would be okay as we do have all the sets and 2P's on that board also i dont think we can X/C this hand profitably.

ive noticed you dont steal that often in the CO but on the BN you open pretty much anything. Any reason for doing so? ive also noticed people over fold the BB but i still think your opening range is maybe too wide.
good video regardless :)

thats how nano gets his insane graphs.

the best NL coach on the site IMO

hey jonas on the 94s hand you say that you have 30% EQ against AK but i don't think the villain would play AK this way at all as i think he would most likely just call your raise OTF. I think it is much more likely he has a set, A high flush draw or air.

also do you even feel that comfortable with your hand when you get there? i just think we are going to be coolering ourselves a lot here and i would most likely without reads just fold to to the raise OTF.

get a couple skilled players to review your HH's and see what they think. Its possible that your just in a massive downswing.

yeah i agree that the Ad probably makes the bluff slightly worse as the reasons you stated but i dont think its enough for us not to bluff here.

not sure whether i should be checking the top of my range here which will be a set. thanks for posting thought definitly something i will think more about.

thanks for the comment 

well i would also jam 4x such as A4s and 44 as well as 7x and 77 so i think we have a few more value combos then 2 and i think i would probs only turn k10s and kj into a bluff on this river. TBH im not in love with my play but at the same time i think this spot is a spot in which an opponent wouldn't suspect me to be making a move. As for him betting a 7 OTT i doubt that's a good play as teh only better that is folding is 88 and 99 as i would 3bet 10's-Q'S.

this guy is actually playing his reverse blockers very well. 

i agree that i have very few combos of value hands that i want to shove OTR however if i were to put myself in the villains shoes i would never expect that my opponent would turn a K into a bluff here and when i call i will see a value hand almost always.

barrel like donkey Kong IMO. TBH when he takes this line i suspect he is giving up almost always and when the board bricks as it does i could see the villain calling down super light on the river when the turn go's C/C. Also you want to be able to bet your strong made hands as well as your draws.

 i would suspect this line would be the most +EV on this board run out etc. Checking at any point in this hand would be kinda weird IMO.

thanks for the reply stefan :)

hey stefan i noticed that you flopped bottom set twice in SR pots and raised their c bet both times. do you ever consider just calling with bottom/middle sets in those spots to protect your calling range?. i feel as if if you are always raising bottom/middle set then you are far more waited towards drawing hands when you are call c bets and therefore can be relentlessly barreled when the board bricks or pairs.

also i figure you will run into a higher set some of the time and lose the maximum.

paul not to hate or anything but surely you could have recorded a few live sessions and upload the best one. this video has few interesting spots and therefore was slightly dull IMO. OH well atleast your a fellow Englishman and therefore i can forgive you.

how does one flop quads with 5,7?

also "In my honest opinion the large majority of the hand is just fancy play syndrome, and really isnt need, especially not when your aim in the hand was to 'balance' your ranges in a 3bet pot multiway 250bb deep, and at 50nl" i didnt know that the pot was going to be multiway and will be HU a large proportion of the time. I believe it is good to balance your 3b range even though its at 50NL just so that when you do decide to move up you understand that your 3B range should be polarised. 

no i never said SB is middling tier player. SB is unknown.

the guy in the CO is not a fish, he is either a middling tier player or reg. If you are stating that players dont fold 2P or bottom set 250BB deep then you are msitaken.

thanks for the breakdown. I agree that pre is spewy but i had history with CO and he had called me down a ton and i had showed him a value hand always, i made the 3B more to balance my range then anything else. I think the SB almost always has 10s,js here and i can get him off his hand. The CO could fold a very strong hand IMO as it is very hard for me to be bluffing and i am the only player that can rep a super nutted hand.

I wouldnt have raised QQ on the flop or any of my sets as there is nothing to protect against. Also do you think he can really put me on a busted draw after shoving into 3 people? especially with someone as shallow as player2? I think i leverage myself so much that player6 can fold his 2P/ bottom sets. I expect im showing up here with 88,99,QQ almost always and there are basically no hands that i would turn into a bluff other pairs+ BD draws.
