Turn:
My first thought was also just to shove the turn with t987. I guess if he thinks bu has mostly kk or folds there might not be a lot of things to protect against.
River:
This seemed the most interesting to me.
Based on what I thought ranges should be my first thought was bluffing his hand was bad in practice. I just didn’t see a lot of better hands folding getting 3:1 on the river. You block tt, also tt and jj shouldn’t be a large portion of bu range . I might be wrong on this but it seems a fair amount of the ajj att that reopen the action like this could also 3bet to begin with. Even if he has those hands (tt-qq )it seems like the button should be heavily inclined to call giving pot odds. that combined with having potentially the best hand vs a high seemed like we should only bluff hands like you said in the 3x region.
But maybe I underestimate how low in his range button is here…

To the flop:
I was wondering about his flop sizing:
It probably depends on his exact preflop range, but how does he spilt his range here? If he still has some hands like aa42rb don’t they just pot the flop?
If yes what hands does he have in this sizing that bet/call other than kk?

Thanks for your reply !
I see those plays quite a bit at the rathole tables when the short stack squeezing is very short vs the other two players. It seemed like this wasn’t really the case here with you having 60bbs and a relatively tight range. So it seemed very light in this specific spot.
- if he gets it in vs you with 16bb dead he still needs ~44% to break even so he must lose quite a bit in this case
- he gets it in 3 ways. Equity in the main pot should be quite bad again so without doing any math it seems he should still lose here
- So in order for this to win he must draw his money from the 3rd option that happened in the video. Maybe he somehow does, to me it didn’t seem likely that playing aqq6 with spr 1 will make a ton of money but I could be totally wrong

Great video as always.
Could you maybe comment on the hand around min 33.25 at top right from both of your opponents perspective ( the aqq6 vs t987) ?
I am just curious about every decision point from their perspective both from a theoretical and practical standpoint.

I get the “ Line not found. If this happens again, please contact an admin in Discord! (https://discord.gg/AXuqNrP)” message a lot today.
I also tried to get in the discord and then I get a “ Safari cannot open the page because the address is invalid” message.

Sobered up finally. Very, very good video. Really like this series. Keep up the good work.

I will play a drinking game while watching this. Every time you say "very,very" I will drink a shot. Cheers

In my opinion the pace of your videos is still way too slow because you talk way too long about really obvious stuff. At minute 34 you don't need to point out that you have a checkfolding range ( shouldn't you always have one? ) and that 3rd pair no draw on qt83ccdd fits in there.

Aug. 31, 2017 | 9:24 p.m.

Excellent content. Maybe using the word "very" a little bit less often would make it smoother though. Keep up the good work, thank you.

Aug. 16, 2017 | 12:27 p.m.

I agree. It makes it hard to watch/ listen to when you spend so much time talking about very basic decisions. For example at 9:48 you don't need to point out that at8ss is not a good flop for qt65dd and similar stuff. It's just a few seconds but adds up when you do it as a standard. I think you spend too much time to comment on basic stuff that should not even be mentioned in essential videos.

Population tendencies in zoom100: 3beting too much and betfolding in 3bet pots with spr=3 ? I doubt it. Would be amazed if you get a fold more than 20% in this specific spot given blockers.

July 26, 2017 | 5:21 p.m.

I would have some questions/comments, but this video pretty much confirms to me that you don't read them anyways.

Successful poker player comes across as arrogant and condescending...what are the odds?

When I saw the title of the video I thought this was about hands where u had a tough decision about hero calling or folding the river. however 100% of the hands you showed you had the nuts on the river or basically the nuts because the way the hand got played out. this video seemed to be more about trying to induce bluffs by underbetting the river against mostly week ranges. I personally didn't really find any of the hands interesting to be honest. maybe the next time you could look for more interesting river spots and also include hands you don't win.
cheers

Great video. I personally get way more out of this than live videos.
Two questions.
- in the first hand what was your conclusion about shoving the turn, does it have a higher ev than checking, considering we just protect our hand against flushdraws and maybe some Tx hands we are ahead of? Also how does that change if we had a similar stack on the turn than our opponents? Would you you be more or less inclined to bet ( I guess this might depend on opponent tendencies, like BB bluffing with Ax)
-second hand I was a little suprised about the preflop call, just because it seems to set us up for a lot of bad postflop spots similar to when calling a 3 bet with bad relative position to the deeper stack. There are 3 possible scenarios: BB folds: we are are oop with about 3x pot with a marginal hand, this however seems to be the best thing that can happen, both BB calling and 3 betting don't seem to be very attractive,so I was wondering where you think the EV of calling was coming from.
Thank you

I dont Understand. Are you asuming he cbets pot with 100% of his preflop range in this spot?

April 28, 2015 | 2:50 a.m.

Que?

Feb. 25, 2015 | 8:19 p.m.

Absolutely mind blowing stuff. Especially when you realized that you were most likely behind in that hand vs MikeMaverick and then increased your EV by running it once is just what separates the break even grinders from the crushers.
I was confused about some stuff though, like when you flatted KK53rb in the SB in minute 1 vs a cutoff open and said you could do that because of the dead money after a likely BB fold; later you overcalled in the SB KKQ3hh and said you don't like it, even with better odds and also a possible dead BB in the pot. Shouldn't it benefit us with this hand when there is multiple players in the pot and we flop a set?
Thank you!

Lol @ 80$ rake for One hand

Nov. 21, 2014 | 9:09 p.m.

Nice Video. Min25:50 or so, top right, do you always fold the QQ33rb there in the SB or does it depend on opponents/stack sizes? Do you call with a suit? I'm assuming you would call on the button all the time?! Thank you

Nov. 20, 2014 | 12:30 a.m.

Maybe it looks worse, cause I watched it on the iPad

Nov. 12, 2014 | 10:46 p.m.

Would be Nice for your future videos if your hud wasn't all over the place and you could see stack sizes and screennames

Nov. 12, 2014 | 10:02 p.m.

Wow, you remind me of Sam lang in so many ways...

Nov. 10, 2014 | 5:48 p.m.

I find it highly optimistic to assume a rec player will consider folding almost any better hand to your river sizing in the last hand, if he bets his medium flushes on the turn he will snap in my opinion, I feel like your hand has too much showdown value to bluff in this spot

Oct. 16, 2014 | 7:03 p.m.

hi fernando,

nice video as usual. do you ever lead/donk in single raised multi way pots or is that not part of your game?

June 7, 2014 | 3:15 p.m.

hello again, i hope my first comment didnt come off rude, my first language isnt english. what i meant was that i feel it doesnt make a ton of sense when you "waste" your videos doing a MTT series where 4 or 5 of your 6 tables are Turbo NLH tournaments. i wouldnt mind MTT videos from you at all, i just think it only makes sense when a decent amount of the footage is PLO oder deeper NLH tournament play. i think there isnt a lot of  to learn anymore how to play a 10 to 25BB stack in NLH tournaments, and the small differences in play dont make up a ton in EV, also this seems to be covered a lot in most regular MTT videos. so maybe in the future a HH review would make more sense where u could only talk about the interesting spots and you also wouldnt time out in your cash tables, unless you maybe really manage to record a a live session of MTTs where you dont get shortstaked in most of the tables. anyways this gets way to long allready, i hope its clear what i mean.

cheers

i dont like this type of video. i feel like there are enough other guys who can do donkament videos

May 28, 2014 | 3:10 p.m.

to be honest i could not really get much out of this, not a lot of interesting stuff going on and i feel like you spend too much time talking about stuff that is not really that interesting.

like @ min 38: you take some time too figure out the river spot on the left table and then time out with the nuts on the right one, could not really understand why bobans river checkraise stat is of any interest in this spot. when you bet there you are bluffing, so what does it really matter how often he checkraises when you cant call anyways, seems to be more important when you think about a thin value bet if i understand it correctly
