Nice vid, thanks Mark! :D

21:00 A3s hand you mentioned that you think these recs with none-full stack are playing a bit loose.

So based on my experience, these types of players overcall a lot preflop -- basically they continue with all the offsuit BWs and even offsuit Ax like A9o, so our FE is way lower than usual.

Where do you think the EV will be generated from 3betting this hand? Thank you!

Thanks! There's one more when last replied.

Sorry for the trouble, since your threads are way too popular! :P

Appreciate it. <3

"no one would call anyways."

Hahaha classic, I still remember how shocked I was when I heard that reasoning first time

Nice follow up vid Linc -- really enjoy the series!

Cheers!

The body language from Steven at 5:45 is a pretty obvious tell to me -- his hand waving up is kinda saying "why am I being put into such a tough spot" -- so no nuts from him 99.9%.

I think it's natural enough and these business man probably wouldn't bother to fake it :D

but Tyler has one :P

Nice vid, thanks Jan!

It drives value into two pair and sets

And I will assume we want to keep overplaying those on a brick turn since villain would be underfolded OTF?

Hey Luke -- I have two other questions asked on previous threads and I think you might have missed them :D

Appreciate it you can answer those!

I put the screenshot below for your reference --

if they aren't, meaning they plan to keep moving up in a relatively timely process, why the need to customise preflop ranges when they will need to be recustomised against relatively shortly

I've been thinking this a lot last week when playing & this is just excellent explanation. I think I would probably waste extra few months even years realizing this by myself and these macro-perspectives are truly the reason why top-tier coaches like you are top-tier!

Cheers!

Got it -- that makes a lot of sense!

It might be a pretty board question but I'm curious when you mentioned "current meta" -- how do you come to a conclusion that 1) how's the current meta be like and 2) how's the meta shifting over time?

Thanks!

Luke Johnson
I understand we could over 3b due to IP's under 4b -- However, I do believe that the pool tendency is overcalling 3b IP especially with pairs -- do you feel the 3b is still going to perform very well under this circumstances? Thank you!

Luke Johnson

Notice how IP is supposed to overfold the river relative to 1-A.

Is this the function of OOP has to overfolds OTF vs cbet?

23:51 you mentioned he's not gonna bluff enough when checked to -- is that a A high board thing or VPIP thing?

18:55 Top left could you explain a little bit more why you think 99c here is a good combo to blast?

Hey Luke -- the point regarding long term prospect gives me some new idea as I'm very guilty of using custom range/strategy against the pool tendencies. I'll certain give more thoughts to "What would I do if I'm playing 1k" kind of mindset. Thank you!

Very interesting format :D

Enjoy you comparing the thought process from a decade ago haha! Keep it up :P

Nice run and very well explained. Thanks Sam!

Real good vid Tyler — BVB SRP is just the most headache-inducing spot for me, glad you shed some light on this, learn a lot!

Would for sure happy to see you continue on maybe double barrel/delayed cbet/flop XR/BB stab and even just continue talking about SB cbet would be awesome!

Cheers

21:06 very nice reasoning regarding using tiny bet to attack the auto fold tendencies of rec — I think even some reg wouldn’t defend those high card floats.

One question — Since we should have way more trash by the river, how would you evaluate when to bluff/picking river bluffing combos when IP flat calls?

14:04

Most pros cannot deal with this idea of not bluffing 8 high”

I’m definitely guilty of that :P

On the last hand with T85r, you said your preferred strategy will be using the small bet exclusively to take advantage of the players’ over XR frequency here. That is fairly interesting.

Because you mentioned earlier that this board is underfolded by the pool OTF, and you expect people to over check-raise, does that mean you will be cbetting a stronger range with a smaller size?

— Since if you cbetting a wider range, you will be forced to fold out a lot of equity vs XR (or forced to play a bigger pot with weaker equity)

and this feels like a pretty extreme exploit since our EV is mostly coming from 3betting the flop vs XR. If villain is continuing by calling other than checking, we are actually exploiting ourselves by giving all his marginal hands easy decision?

Hopefully my logic makes sense to you!

15:00 JT9ss board, I like the idea of most overcalled texture in holdem haha. Also curious on as an exploit, how would you adjust your flop betting frequencies with none-nutty made hands (overpairs/two pairs/set)?

Very nice one Tyler! I got aha moment when you talk about the benefits of b25 on AQ9ss UTGvBB! I’m too stuck with solver strats and didn’t think about the pool won’t able to anything about it. Appreciate it.

absolute giga giga monkey nuts... even have a 7!"

Got me lolll real hard.

And the funny part is he is nice enough to show after BU mucks xD

nice vid Nuno!

One quick question -- 33:47 996 4 4bettor xback turn IP, I have the same perception as you thinking the xback is weird as the turn is super favorable and it's probably only AK/AA but we are talking abt Linus :D

Do you think population over xback AK here in general? Thanks!

Thanks!

Would you mix bluff all BWs here OTT? I felt when rec cc here they usually get kind of sticky on middling boards so I'm typically giving up -- would be great to see how your approach this spot!

Curious on how you think about this as well

03:23 table 2

You said you are looking for fold out A high on the riv, so what would be your sizing OTR if we get called?

Would you mix bluff all BWs here OTT? I felt when rec cc here they usually get kind of sticky on middling boards so I'm typically giving up -- would be great to see how your approach this spot!

Thank you!

Hey Gary - thanks for the vid, neat pace, enjoyed it!

48:39 "praying for a 9 on the turn". Thought that was just me haha -- good to see a seasoned pro like you also doing this :D

Great content! Thanks Sam and pads
