If we just stove a narrow range for UTG we are in rough shape:

Board: Td Jc 6d Ad
Dead:

equity win tie pots won pots tied
Hand 0: 07.128% 04.96% 02.17% 72 31.50 { QsJs }
Hand 1: 92.872% 90.70% 02.17% 1317 31.50 { AQs+, KQs, AQo+, KQo }

If we add A9o we increase to 9%. Whatever range SB has it obv will decrease our equity further. If we believe UTG will just call with a lot of pairs on the flop the situation is ofc different. Actually to my suprise it kind of looks like XF is good. I believe we will lose bets on average on the river.

Nice video. I kept picturing Mike as the little devil sitting on your shoulder whispering in your ear, "Come on, three bet that J8s! It will be exciting!" "You need to open limp that K6o. It's only 2 dollars. Come on; do it!"

wow, i love how jennicide is playing in your game

She is so loose and aggressive preflop. That's what it also said in her playboy bio.

She has a wikipedia page if you want to check it out.

You must hate money if you wanna threebet an UTG range from the BB w/ QJ, Mike L. Although i do like your thinking about making that fold when everybody calls that flop and it turns an Ace that completes broadway and flush draws.

the main reason for jennicide's fame is that she did a playboy spread a couple years back.

i think she's had some minor donkament success as well.

Next time you play her you need to set up a "show me your pair" metagame. I think it'd be +EV.

these are very good games.

on the left table, what are your reasons for just calling w/ KQ in the BB and not 3! against what is probably a loose CO opening?

Could you guys give me an idea of how big of an adjustment you are making in a 1/3 blind structure in this situation? You fold J3o so what Jx hands are you calling with against a tighter player? Are we talking about tightening up a couple pips like to J5o+?

I would assume against looser or bad players we are reverting to normal defend strategy regardless of the blind structure.

How does your stealing range change first in from the SB?

How does your 3b range change from SB to B steal?

How does your calling range change if there is a raise and a couple calls and you are in SB?

I have never heard a lot of discussion about these adjustments in a 1/3 structure and would love to here your comments.

Thanks for the great vids

Would having the As instead of the Qs make this a turn bet? Obviously it would be less gross if you got raised and I think it is quite possible to get the villian to fold a 4 on this board.

AK makes sense to call down here. How does your hand change here with a smaller kicker? What kickers, if any, are you mucking on the turn or river?

DD, you mentioned you reserve the right to raise a blank turn. Could you explain your thinking on this and when and against who it would best apply? I would assume you would be v betting some rivers as well? On a board like this, wouldn't you be opening yourself up to getting value owned by the villian if he 3bs an overpair?

Time Link to 00:17:15

I open this always from UTG. Is this too loose in general, or is this more specifice to blind structure or the high rake at these limits?

Mike, you say you usually wait for the CO to play this. Could you explain why?

DD, I know you typically play any Ace suited from UTG so why wouldn't you play QJ?

I know there are coaches who would open this hand UTG, but perhaps I have misapplied there reasoning.

Are you guys opening QTo in the HJ?

Just wondering...Thanks

I normally just call everything in that spot, so habit I suppose?
