sick.

gg on the intro. Smile

1st hand. vnh waiting for the turn with Kx.

2nd hand. QTo. BBB, in your vids you like to say that you're almost always firing the turn. You even said "I'm putting in money regardless of my hand and the board." I cringed a little at this. just saying.
Also, you aren't necessarily targeting just better hands with a turn bet here. You are targeting ALL hands that cannot continue since your other choice is c/f. I think this is a great spot to bet again.

I mean no doubt your guys vids are great but I'm not sure they go that far, even for a big LHE fan Smile

I can't believe there are comments in this thread and no one has mentioned this yet...

So for those who remember the Roshambo madness from Episode 1 and are wondering what BBB and I got up to this time, check it out here.

I know some NL players stopped by last time to check us out, so just be aware it isn't at the beginning this time around. Also, all future...ahem...non poker diversions will be outros (like this week), not intros.

OMG that was awesome

Great strategy as always in the vid guys aside from the board reading miss Smile but just a couple of pointers...

1) Pluto's a DOG!!!
2) WTF at never having used MSPaint?!!
3) Props to BBB on Brontosaurus Lamp
4) BLUE FILL FTW!!
5) Pygball's fnupple impression was better
6) BBB wins MSPaint comp but Pygmy gets ICWHATUDIDTHAR points Smile

Can't say fairer than that guys...6'd!!

TDiamond 2Diamond in BB v SB at 26:30. Villain cbets and bets the turn on a ASpade2Spade5Heart9Diamond.

I would strongly consider raising the turn here. The more that I think about it the more I like it.


ASpade7Spade on right at 48:30.
This hand deserves a lot more discussion than it got, imo. The T turn brings a lot of draws. If I'm villain, I wait for the turn with a wide range on this board verses a LAGTAG.

I'm interested in what you'd want to achieve with this raise. FSDR?

i think this betting this is definitely fine, but i just wanted to point out to those who may be new to HUHU, especially in game creation, that just calling this is also fine

I like that TT hand where you bet 3 streets on A75tt Qx 8x or close to that. I think I've been missing value in spots like that.
Also, nice lamp sir.

I'd also be interested in hearing what your rationale for this is. Also, no problem if you don't want to use it, but I think the feature to leave notes along the timeline is super kickass and you should consider utilizing it.

Are you thinking about calling down? Or checking the turn? I'm not sure if I understand you here. I mean, if he's waiting with a lot of hands (Jx, 6x, pocket pairs), then we're absolutely correct to fold here. It's only if he has a large semi-bluff range that we need to protect ourselves by getting to showdown sometimes. I think both BBB and I felt the latter was pretty unlikely in this case (keep in mind he can't peel the flop knowing a T is going to hit on the turn). I mean, do you really think he's floating here often?
