Yes, I did mean it as a bluff reraise...
Thank you so much... Very helpful... Much appreciated...
I was curious in general about what our best bluffs could be in this spot... not that it's gonna get folds vs my player pool... and the one thing that through me off a little, and got me thinking about bluffs was his raise sizing OTR as I expected him to jam his boats.

HodorIsKing It's gotta be the fact that KK with the Kd is a way way better candidate for a call than a bluff... if we're ever turning a made hand into a bluff I think it should either block the Nut Flush or some boats. Like some Tx, AdKx, or maybe even some KQs.
I'm really curious if we get to turn AdQx into a bluff.
Trinity what do you think about potential bluffs?

Thank you so much for running it in Pio... very helpful... I appreciate it.

I know that he's got the nut advantage on this board. But I do 3bet TT and some other Tx (T9+) this deep BB vs UTG, obv not at a full frequency.

Also... What do you think about my sizing on the River?
The whole hand in general : )

Comment | Mamarezaaa commented on Blocking T and R ?

I knew the BTN was very loose vs 3bets, the population mostly are. That's why I sized up.
With him cold calling my 3bet on BB I was planning to go for value all the way except on a Q or a J.

Comment | Mamarezaaa commented on Blocking T and R ?

It did feel weird. Him being an unknown I just couldn't figure out his cold calling range vs my 3bet.
I was shoving on many Rs, but when he clicked back the T alarms went off in my head.

Comment | Mamarezaaa commented on Blocking T and R ?

I had no reads on the Villain. It was literally the first hand I played with him.
But I thought about what kind of a range a regular fish is gonna cold call my 3bet. 99 to JJ and maybe ATs and AJ-AQ. And I was obviously going broke on a lot of run outs. However I just couldn't see a fish turning TT into a bluff or click back a hand like AJ.

I don't mind my folding here.
I think cbetting range is ok on the F, but if you'd take another line I'm more than happy to know.
What I wanna ask is what do you guys think of blocking the T and potentially R vs X/C T and evaluating the R, most probably X/F?

Feb. 1, 2021 | 1:51 p.m.

I don't mind your flat pre if the blinds are weak and more on the passive side.
Not a huge fan of the flop play without the 7h.
Your Turn raise is OKish, but we should consider the fact that when he's over betting the T on a card that hits the pre flop caller very well, he's mainly betting the top of his range (88-JJ-T9) or his strongest combo draws that block your straights (QTh-A9h...) . It's not like he's over cbetting T and clicking back with KK or AA.
On River we are bluff catching, and the most important rules of bluff catching are blocking Villain's Value, which 77 does not at all. And unblocking his bluffs, 77 does that. However many of his semi bluffs (xh9h) gets there on the river.
I'd say a spew...
77 is a fold.

Was wondering if any of you guys got to look at the Overnightmonster.com's free Pre-Flop ranges and if so what do you think of them.

Jan. 25, 2021 | 3:49 p.m.

The other day this guy cold 4bet over shoved almost 400bbs with 83o on me pre, I had AA so I'm pretty sure I had to call : ) the flop was 883...
I 4bet this fucking maniac who min 3bet/called everything on BB, I had AKc, the F was QcJcTx, he checked I cbet 2/3 he over shoved 250bbs and I had to call there I guess, he showed Tc9h, Turn and River were Ts... at least I lost to Quads : )
I Cold 4bet the UTG open, BTN 3bet with AA on SB, BB cold calls 300bb deep, flop is 552r, I cbet 1/3 and BB Shoved instantly, I called and he showed with J5o...
I literally have hundreds of more of such bad beat examples and I can go on writing them for weeks, we all do.
Variance is the essence of the game, it's the only reason that weaker players think they have a chance to win and continue to play poker and It's the main source of our income.
I does hurt, it does suck, and it is disgusting every time. But you gotta keep reminding yourself of this that you're gonna make most of your money vs these maniacs.

You obviously can't fold the T.
I don't hate your X/R on the F, but the thing is your hand plays better as a X/C on the T. By betting you more often are gonna isolate yourself with the top of UTG's range.
You have a marginal made hand with a decent draw which is not gonna get 3 streets of value against worse, unimproved.

Dec. 15, 2020 | 6:47 a.m.

MatoStar I absolutely see your point, but realistically in what frequency are we X/C-ing QQ/KK in a 3bet pot OOP to 2others even with KxKs/QxQs?
I can only see 3 combos of AsAx here, that again would play better as a X/R most often in this scenario imo.
I'm not trying to criticize the line he took, just genuinely trying to know what kind of value combos are we playing like this.
Are we jamming 1.5x the size of the pot on a river that is way better for V's range with a hand like AQ?

Dec. 11, 2020 | 8:25 a.m.

I do agree with RaoulFlush, I'm not sure if we get to have that many X/R against a 2x c-bet.
And I personally don't like defending hands like (72s/82s/and...) even vs a min open esp on lower stakes.
However, as far as your question on the R, all the draws missed, so naturally you wanna bluff hands that unblock V's FD/StrDs and block his Boats, which 75d doesn't at all. So I guess hands like 4Xc or some other backdoor club draws that you somehow decided to X/R a 2x c-bet on the F would be ok bluff candidates on the R.

Dec. 11, 2020 | 8:04 a.m.

First you should be thinking about what kind of value hands you're gonna have that you'd play like that in a 3-way pot on the SB.
The thing is you somehow managed to rep exactly AK so good that calling you down with any sort of a pair on the R seems not that hard of a job in this pot.

Dec. 10, 2020 | 9:50 p.m.

I would lean towards c-betting range (1/4,1/3) on the flop but checking at least at some frequency is most definitely ok.
As far as calling your play a blunder I totally disagree with you. It's true, your shove on the turn might not have been the most beautiful/+EV play there. But overall this was nothing but a cooler.
Don't blame yourself because someone hit a 2-outer against the top of your range.

Dec. 10, 2020 | 9:26 p.m.

One of the most helpful things for me esp at first when I started playing online was taking notes on everyone on the pool...
Pay attention to your opponents, and take brief and to the point notes on them. How they open, cbet, value bet, bluff and...
The other important thing is to have solid preflop discipline.
We're here for you.
Good Luck grinding.

If you're folding this in that spot, you're way over-folding imo...
What are his better flushes that didn't 3bet pre and floated the flop? as we block them all (KTs/K9s)...
Is he X/R-ing your 2/3 T Cbet with a hand like Q8s?
We mostly have 44s and 66s to be worried about and there's only 4 combos of those. And if we run into boats... well, shit happens.

Comment | Mamarezaaa commented on Biggest Leaks

RaoulFlush
Since they also take rake PF where I play, I decided to have some PF flats in other Positions apart from BB and BU.
What do you think? is that ok or should I stick to 3bets and folds?

Comment | Mamarezaaa commented on Overbet vs check

Flop could be a check a high frequency, but when you 3bet pre and bet the flop, the turn Ah is gonna hit your range pretty hard. I don't see many A-high floats in villain's range, so in this spot I'd love to see a small bet instead of checking and making your hand somewhat face-up.
A small bet would put villain's TPs in a tough spot and his KQ type hands (7 outers) are gonna fold.

Nov. 30, 2020 | 2:13 p.m.

Whether to call or fold the R depends heavily on your reads on the villain, I don't know what to say.
What I do know is that I really hate your sizing pre, against a 2x open and 2 flats you should've gone way bigger and create the right SPR especially OP against 3 opponents.

Nov. 30, 2020 | 1:53 p.m.

Yes buddy... you should've folded the T especially having the Kh and blocking his semi-bluffs...
And if you wanna trap someone, try to do it with AA. However fast playing your strong hands is almost always the best option.

Nov. 30, 2020 | 1:44 p.m.

Thank you buddy.
I do agree with you, 1/2 cbet is way better especially holding the Jh. And yes I flat 77 in that spot almost every time.
It was a very tough spot for me, jamming felt like an overplay, call/deciding the turn felt weird due to the spr.
I thought I'm gonna have way better calls (QQ+ with a h) and shoves (QQ+ without a h/ JTh/ Axh) there.

Nov. 29, 2020 | 9:05 a.m.

I think AJs here wants to squeeze pre at a high frequency, and I don't think there's additional value in seeing the flop out of position in a 3-way pot.
Villain's bet sizing feels a little odd to me and I think he's only repping a flush, although obviously I have no idea about his post-flop tendencies.
Your hand though I think is too strong to fold against such an opponent and jamming would be too thin. It's a call even tough you're gonna run into a flush a decent amount of times or at least sth like AxQs.

Post | Mamarezaaa posted in NLHE: Folding JJ post-flop...

10NL - 158bb deep
UTG Opens 3x (have no read on him)
CO calls
SB calls
Hero (BB) Squeeze 18x with JhJs
UTG thinks for maybe 6-7 seconds and flats
CO and SB fold
Flop comes 9h 7h 2s and the pot is $4.2
I cbet 2/3 ($2.80)
Villain raised to $7.9 leaving himself $6.1
I folded thinking the only hand I'm crushing is TT and rarely ever might we have the same hand, but I'm mostly against slow played QQ+, sets and flush draws with two over cards to our JJ (AQh-KQh) and maybe ATh against which we're not a huge favorite. As for his weaker bluffs we blocked JTh, which left him with T8h, 65h type hands which I had no idea if he defended against a squeezee or whether if he would play a hand like A5h like this...
What do you guys think? My squeeze size, cbet, fold, everything...
