I think you missed the point on that one. We DO primarily use overpairs, but only because WHEN we have the choice, they are the better candidates.

@31:18 what sizing for value? bluffs?

Sept. 8, 2017 | 9:47 a.m.

6:10 you explained, that a call with a Q of heart or spade would be better than not blocking a fd vs an elite thinking player. Could you explain it in more details, please?

Sept. 4, 2017 | 7:07 a.m.

Great video, thank you!
37:10 why do we wanna bet on the bigger size otr if our opponent capped and we wanna get value with our ax from his tt-kk, kx combos?

March 15, 2017 | 6:49 a.m.

Great video, thank you!

11:00 why do we wanna flat kq vs lp open and more frequently 3b vs ep open?
12:00 why are we more intended to 3bet pre if the open size were bigger?

Jan. 23, 2017 | 9:34 a.m.

Great video Lucas, ty!

16:45 OTT 3, do you split your range and donk some of your combos, if yes which ones?
23:30 OTR if we face a bet, lets say 1/3-1/2 of the pot from bebaimis777, would you be folding 100% of the time with q9? What would have changed if EspenasApart bet if checked to him?
36:15 in general, when we wanna setmine, what minimum SPR would you consider to be reasonable to flat when we are in MP and LP?

Nov. 23, 2016 | 1:23 a.m.

Great video as always, ty!

8:15 can our opponent shove a9, tt or any jx there 4 value even then its a clear run out? Don't see any hands that can call worse than a9, tt is also very questionable since you do gonna have a lot jx, qq+ type of hands that x/c otr right?

Nov. 21, 2016 | 9:45 p.m.

Great video, Tyler!

6:50 and 11:10 what are you counting there?

Oct. 28, 2016 | 9:42 a.m.

Very interesting hands and great video Daniel, ty!

2:00 that if we cbet otf and opponent raises us say like 3x, do we have to fold all the time if we assume that we don't have enough info about the villain, or if we would be deeper would you prefer to see the turn?
40:00 what is the optimal play for your opponent w 88 on this dynamic board? Wouldn't be better to x/r w bottom set since you rapping a strong range?

Oct. 13, 2016 | 2:23 p.m.

even w/ 100bbs flops is a cbet just because of how many poorish equity (vs OP+nfd) hands are x/shoving for FE, even more so shortstacked. As played shove over the top OTT for the same reasons against his leading hands. Unless a heart or an ace comes OTR, we will be facing a very tough decision most of the time, while we still should be pushing equity against a reasonably agressive villain's range OTT.

Sept. 26, 2016 | 5:43 a.m.

Both Galphond's "playing 3bet pots OOP" are still great value for that, but what about 3b squeezing OOP? What hands are strong enough, and how do we play them OTF (assuming we get two callers) w/ a SPR of 2+?
I do realise these are the simplier of hands compared to deep multi-street situations, however having flawed reasoning in such spots can lose you just about as much money as elsewhere. Do we just pot/GII? 1/2/GII? 1/2/fold vs two jams? Something like that. Not necessarily math based either, just hands with your thought process behind it, or any possible outcomes.

Sept. 20, 2016 | 12:51 p.m.

Great video Sam, ty!

35:00 in the SHR, if u would bet the turn as you planed, what river cards would you consider not to stab? And you mentioned that you could x/r the turn, but decided not to, cause you would do that with some other combos, which ones i'm curious?

Sept. 18, 2016 | 12:51 a.m.

Long story short: flop is low enough not to be great for our preflop range, and from my own experience, near every player in this limit is undercbetting these flops, a response to which is people underraising cbets. Me myself am having trouble deciding a cbet/fold range. On a flop that has so many draws present (which we do not really block), cbetting no equity hands just feels ineffective. Maybe a JT76 with Jhi FD? However these to me feel scarce enough that when I am facing a cbet in villains spot, I just do not really consider raising apart from absolute monsters with showdown equity OTF. With everything else It just feels so much better to call and play that flop IP with a considerable playability advantage (huge amount of turns change the effective nuts). Maybe QQJ8hh of sorts, but playing a 70% range on a flop that even if weakly often connects with something, playability advantage OTT sounds so much better. So given not many hands are willing to bloat the pot OOP on this middling flop, I don't see why IP player would ever not just call or fold - play the position game. Except for a superior minority of hands. Please contribute :P

Hand History | holdenas123 posted in PLO: Marginal hand on a SBvsBU 3bet flop.
Blinds: $1.00/$2.00 (6 Players) BN: $200.00
SB: $316.16 (Hero)
BB: $543.39
UTG: $682.62
MP: $1137.23
CO: $215.10
BU is reggy, 32/21/6 with a BU steal of ~70. Not too crazy postflop.
Preflop ($3.00) Hero is SB with T K A 7
3 folds, BN raises to $5.00, Hero raises to $17.00, BB folds, BN calls $12.00
3bet isn't too obvious, but with BU folding 30% vs Resteal, in my opinion, is a must
Flop ($36.00) 9 4 T
Hero
Flop is... that. I ended up checking and x/folding to a 2/3 bet, however both decisions - whether to cbet or not, and whether to x/call or not - in my mind were considerable. On a flop like that I feel like the good wraps (KQJThh, QJT7hh), sets and, even more so, 2P, have almost no incentive to raise, and almost always would just call a cbet IP (we are not getting raised). If this assumption is true (which I strongly believe should be the case), I would only have weak'ish T9, J87, QQ66hh in my x/calling range, and basically never marginal made hands with no redraws like this. So having checked and facing a bet my instinct was to just fold what seemed like a good equity hand, and now i'm back to my flop decision: do we cbet? Playability on 80% of turns seems so poor, that I FEEL that this was played perfectly, however some other opinions would help.

Since noone else seems to be pointing it out. What happened with the video quality? I may be spoiled, but no matter how I watch it, it hurts my eyes o.o 4k, 460p, anything. An uploading mishap perhaps?

Sept. 1, 2016 | 7:59 p.m.

I am disturbed. How close is it do you think? Say it was 5577ss, TT77r?

Aug. 27, 2016 | 4:29 p.m.

Yes, you are biased. Bottom set is not nuts, however.

Aug. 27, 2016 | 5:20 a.m.

Never in my life am I folding this pre to a single bet.

Aug. 25, 2016 | 3:46 p.m.

... Folds. Either jam turn or check back OTR. UTG bets into 3 players on a K24tt flop. Unless his EP range is 40 (which it obviously is not), his flop cbetting range is OP+NFD+GS~, KKxx, A53xdd, and that's almost it. Not even sure if he would bet K2 there, which he, mind you, does not have many.
That said jamming vs that range OTT w/ an SPR of ~4 gets us in trouble. Even if he checks SOME of his KKxx to x/r, and barrels mostly GS+FD types, we still have enough KKxx in our range to raise only that really. Mayybe K44x/22x. With all of that in mind, after we call two barrels on that board OTR we will almost always have at least a king, so we would not need to be bluffing much there, thus he should not intend to herocall. Nor to bluffraise, as his own 'good blockers' in AKxx can just x/call if needed. I say x-back OTR, or fold as played. Don't think I find a fold OTT readless.

Aug. 25, 2016 | 10:59 a.m.

Nah, I dont play different readless. GS really kind of helps too. A lot depends on pool of players, but just to start with: I can see a bit worse villain play just the KJxx the exact same way. And the combos of KJxx and KKxx are equal in numbers (its almost the same in his preflop isoing range). And then there is pair+wraps, pair+GS+turnedFD, 77xx portion of his twopair/pair+connected middle cards isoing range. I might make a very tight feel fold if the villain is known to play slowly and almost never pots, and now suddenly just starts snappotting. Nh.

Aug. 25, 2016 | 10:46 a.m.

Well. it allso kind of depends on your 4th card.
