hehe yeah I actually have a 40% rakeback deal Wink

On a site note, the reason why I chose these tables are that I didn't want to play at tables full of fish now that I can get my play reviewed by Tuba and Ybother, not saying that these tables are super tough. But in between Smile

Any comments on completing from the SB with 64s on table one? Could I raise? Is it a fold?

Yeah I have no good excuse for not 3betting, I would like to blame it on a missclick, but that wouldn't be fair. I can't really understand why I didn't 3bet, it is usually my default, unless there is a very fishy guy sitting after me I want in as well

Sorry for the HUD mixup guys. But I actually missread it myself, I (like Tuba) also thought that he folded 100% to 3bet, and thought I could get more value post flop

Why do you like a check Tuba? Is it because we expect him to fire again, because of his AF:6? If so would you check raise, or let him fire again on the river and then check raise?

Just a little service for the viewers:

Name/3bet/F-3bet
VPIP/PFR/AF/Steal/Hands
Cbet/F-cbet/Tbet/F-tbet/WTSD

Sorry if I bombed the thread with time links guys Smile

PS. Tuba, whatever happened to the Baluga saying: "double your betsize to double your win rate Grin"

Thank you very much for this opportunity guys.

I'd just fold. We don't know anything about BTN. The BB looks pretty laggy. I'm not real wild about 64s here.

What do you guys think about donk leading this flop with AK? Villain may spazz bluff us or raise with KQ or KT thinking he has the best hand. I think if we donk/call a raise and chk/call turn,chk/call riv we can get villain to bluff at the pot or valuebet worse hands for us. Thoughts?

Would be interested to hear Cam's plan when he lead out on the turn. What were you going to do if you got raised?
Steve, how do you think hero should respond to a raise of his turn lead?

If he raises I would either call or shove, it depends on the raise size.
I could see him raise a strong king, maybe some kind of open ender, he's AF is 8 I know it's only a sample of 50 hands but still.
To be honest in the heat off the battle if he raises to about 4-5 i'd propably hit the all in button and hope he calls with a worse king or an AJ that got stubbern.
But now that I think about it, what do you think is best? let's say he raises to 4.5 would you call, and then c/c the river? Or is it better to call turn and b/f half pot on the river?
Very good question btw.

The only info we have on the btn is that he's playing 40/40 over 6 hands, so if they both are laggy isn't it profitable to at least complete and let them bluff away their money if we hit well? Or is that to optimistic?

Maybe I'm still confused on the stats, but isn't villain a VPIP over 50? After the turn goes check check I think potting this is pretty standard. I don't think the number of hands a VPIP calls in this spot changes much between a 1/2 pot bet and a pot sized bet.

you're looking at the wrong guy, villain is the 27/18

also, i clarify this point a bit in your video, which should be out by saturday. we got a bit delayed again this week. Frown gonna be recording ep6 on sunday to avoid this problems in the future.

edit: AHHHHHHHH. i think i was the one looking at the wrong stats or something. against the fish then yea i would be pretty big, although i don't usually mash full pot since i think it looks significantly stronger to some players compared to like 80-90%.

i would typically fold, once again you have tons of reverse implied odds. you're basically hoping to hit a straight/flush, or two pair, or trips, none of which is very likely. if you're on any decent number of tables its going to just be a waste of time playing those types of junk hands in the SB.
