Great video

My feeling is that I have a very high self-confidence and this ends up hindering me in the game and outside of the game, sometimes I feel exhausted from studying, but at the same time it is a very good feeling to learn poker, maybe I should use my time to learn other things too or just relax.

This type of class is great for all players, thank you very much for showing the whole thought process and range reading, this was really good.

Thought of the last hand was definitely the most interesting. I initially disagreed when you thought that the villain could be using a BB strategy in SB, honestly I think it's much easier for the villain to not know what he's doing than using knowledge from another spot in this one, but of course this depends on the perception of each one, but initially my intuition is that he was totally underbluffing thinking that he can always c-bet bluff this board, so when he plays x it gives me a warning signal.

Great video these last themes are excellent

I don't know if other people have the same feeling as me when I'm watching a mental class or video, but it's something that comforts me a lot, a good feeling...

Talking about the topic, I feel like my biggest problem is not forgetting all of this, sometimes I start practicing and everything goes so well, when 2 months pass I end up forgetting and practicing half of it and when I get into a downswing everything seems to fall into place. collapse until I do it all over again.

20:35 Very interesting to bring up this point, mainly because most humans tend to simplify these c-bet spots at low frequency. I wanted to ask if as the player goes from c-betting 15% to 0% does his xr frequency increase?

March 20, 2024 | 9:35 p.m.

15:30 I don't know if you agree with this, but you raised the point that having an Ace gives you more showdown value turn and you would bluff less, a point I would like to ask and if having A!d makes us want to fold more flops since it will have more combos of Aces with diamonds and possibly put more pressure on future streets

Thanks again for bringing you some great Alien content, hope it continues, great insights once again.

20:39 I believe this is a bit of an overbluff, in my view you have SD value in this spot and if you start betting all the Ks, including overpairs with a certain SD value, I think it will be a bit of an overbluff, especially when it comes to wider ranges where you will have more sd value with your KK than vs EP for example. (I wouldn't bluff this spot vs EP either)

29:44
Very interesting what the solver brought about the 3-bet pot on table 4, but I would like to talk a little about the turn, does our combo have an incentive to bet a lot on this turn? I understand that our perception has a lot of AA and that we will have a certain range advantage in this fold, however I believe that I prefer to bet worse J combos with the benefit of folding better hands, for example I think my bets would be focused more on the region of hands like "QJ,KJ" which will benefit from folding even equities, would perhaps include some combos from "AJ" which doesn't have a nutgutshot.

with 3 diamonds i like bet, with 2 diamonds i like more xr u have any diference in this thoguht?

17:49

Do you think that going low size is good because of the villain or do you necessarily think that your range wants to bet low on this river? I feel like our range wants to go higher, especially after betting OOP against several in a MW scenario, I don't feel like I'm going to have a thin value bet.

March 16, 2024 | 6:20 p.m.

7:46 What are your thoughts on this bluff? I honestly wouldn't have done it in-game, but now it looks really good even if I didn't pay much attention, but I feel like we're so low in our range and sometimes we forget to bluff hands with "A" on the river and just focus on hands like 8765 or some bluff with clubs

In a way I think the only bad card we have in hand is T.

I realize that even playing short stack I don't see you making many size adjustments pre-flop and post-flop, do you think you have some EV in decreasing size pre-flop or in a post-flop c-bet for example in a game of 50bbs?

Comment | alexrod99 commented on Fix Your Motivation

Very good how impactful this video was and it came at the right time, I was in a very good routine of improving everything that was said in the video, especially mindfulness and observation and after a few bad days it seems like everything collapsed, thank you for another great video that made me rethink ideas and how to map my goals.

March 16, 2024 | 2:46 p.m.

32:18 I actually ended up forgetting that it was a high size and was focusing on the solver size sry .

March 14, 2024 | 2:37 p.m.

16:02 I imagine that the 4 and 2 are treated as the brick for the OOP player due to the fact that IP should not have a high amount of 75 in his c-betting range, especially with your comment that this hand could be x.

So do you think it would be interesting to look at how the 4 impacts against a linear c-betting range? Maybe it's still brick, but it's something I've thought about.

24:29 If I were to guess something about this river I would say that BERRI has 0% bluff and AmSoGood has 1.5%, jokes aside I think BERRI really gave xr for value, especially about your comment about AmSoGood having a conservative range of c-bet, I believe it strengthens the prob turn even more

32:18 Corry one last question, do you think the fact that the river completes some str8 makes us want to reduce the size? Since it somehow hits our bluff range?

Did I like the video? I had promised not to watch any poker today hahaha thank you and keep making videos like this.

March 13, 2024 | 7:47 p.m.

The exercises are great, thanks for another video.

March 8, 2024 | 12:04 p.m.

8:16 At any point when playing online do you consider timing tell relevant?

23:24 As you asked us to argue other points, I think that having TT and JJ makes you block natural folds from the turn villain, like JT or some gutshot combos that he called c-bet flop like pair + gutshot

24:00 Great heuristics about unlocking backdoors

51:53 I was also wanting to go pot with this combo, villain capped his range and we unlocked good bluffcatchers on his part, would we then use Q+ nut flush for blocking river?

58:37 Surprising, but interesting how a player c-betting this board has this impact on polarity on the turn since it is a board where the OOP should have a lot of x flop.

Congratulations, you are the best PLO instructor on the site, your effort is visible in all the videos and I will never tire of praising you.

This model is excellent, especially with these insights such as the 2nd barrel of AAT (you mentioned the importance of having the T) in the fold, in short, there were several insights throughout the review.

Great video again ty Chris!

Going back to talking about 26:27, I hadn't seen that it was limped pot, I'm sorry haha I thought it was srp, anyway very good game and great comments I hope you continue the great work, it has helped a lot.

Feb. 28, 2024 | 8:55 p.m.

6:20 This is a very interesting c-bet, I wouldn't have done it in-game and now I think all the reasons you mentioned are really cool, maybe we can play x the best K5 combos that have more future equity.

15:55 Don't consider the lead? table 3.
Assuming that the open raise is from the button, I would always lead with this combo, but as it is from EP I have this doubt.

26:27 table 1
This combo has great blockers for c-betting. If I don't play c-bet, I would definitely go xr.

great video bro ty!

Feb. 27, 2024 | 12:05 p.m.

It would be great to finish the series

Feb. 20, 2024 | 12:21 p.m.

Your theoretical videos are great, but these reviews have given me a lot of insights, I hope you keep up the great work! This insight into the monoton board was very good, as it is an area that is little explored, as are some c-bets mw OOP, which is a very difficult area to explore.

Feb. 20, 2024 | 9:41 a.m.


8:55 Imagine that the villain bets 3/4 turn and the bluff frequency with this combo increases?

Feb. 20, 2024 | 9:39 a.m.

29:50 There is a point where we have really interesting blockers against the EP's continue on this board (Ah,Kh,Qh) which will block a good part of the overpair combos with FD that the villain continues and T some GS, I hadn't really thought about this before lead, thank you very much :D

Feb. 20, 2024 | 9:35 a.m.

42:47 I have the impression that this could be the best 9x combo for you to call in this spot, since Q9,J9 blocks some bluffs and A9,K9 can give you an xr flop.

Great video and a lot of learning, thank you and keep going!

14:06
But does your range in this case want to bet low? Considering that part of your overpairs are squeezed pre-flop, you therefore have little incentive to have medium size on this turn since you are going to bet a more polarized range, right? I understand that the average size may favor the bet of some overpairs that we call pre-flop, but I believe that part of the overpairs that have an incentive to bet this turn are squeezed pre-flop, such as KKQT, KKT8 and I find it difficult to bet overpairs that do not has extra equity on this turn.

Feb. 17, 2024 | 11:06 p.m.

great video ty

Feb. 17, 2024 | 8:56 p.m.

Definitely one of the videos that I learned the most in the last few months, I hope a series like this continues, as this video format is very good for understanding your thought process, which I think is one of its strengths.
