Poker Video: No Limit Hold'Em by KRANTZ (High Stakes)

What a great start for a early morning! :coffee:

A note from Fwf:

Early in the vids when jay donks out the AJ OOP and bets the turn and ships the river -

"While jamming in the spot is +EV, c/c'ing is better. All draws that called 2x and have no showdown value may bluff. You also want to have a c/c range in this spot so you won't always have to bluff. It's a spot where jay's bluffing range is wider than the calling range."

This is better than the christmas presents i got this year.

"its hard to access the psychology of a huge fish"

great vid. great series. thx a lot.

Hey FWF, you started listing out adjustments make against light 3bettors IP, but didn't get further than #1 - Open tighter. What were the others?

Also, against the players that are 3betting IP constantly, as we tighten our opening range, is it also correct to widen our 4betting range (for value and bluffs)?

Jay, FWF recently the small stakes like 1/2 and 2/4 and even lower on 6max on stars have been infested with light 3 betters. They are making my life difficult and won't let me open as much as i'd like. What especially pisses me off is that they cold call my 4 bets instead of shoving/ folding. What range do you 4 bet against someone who 3 bets 15% of his hands? What about 7-10%? What range is good to cold call? Is it better to polarize your 4 betting range against these opponents or just 4bet a value range? I've made some adjustments like opening for 3 BBs instead of 4, and tightening up my opening ranges but it's seriously hurting my ability to play with fish and maneuver post flop.

If you have an idea of what the specific villain is 3-betting and calling your 4-bets with, you can further tailor your shoving range against it. The variance sounds sick though, lol.

Thanks, on the same hand I was wondering what Jay does if he gets raised after the donk on the flop. I mean its not an easy fold when you take a strange line into an agro player.

Any competent villain will exploit the hell out of you shoving any Ax hand over a 3 bet. You'll end up dominated in a lot of spots. I think a combination of bluff and value 4 bets should fare much better.

fwf is tha bomb!

FWF the hand early where Krantz donks the AJ in a 3 bet pot OOP vs traheho is an interesting spot that I have a couple questions about. The fact that he is on the button and given what you know about him leaves his range some what wide and light for 3 betting Krantz in that spot. So I like his line of donking with TPTK. But How do we adjust if a different villian has a more narrow 3 betting range and say we donk and he raises or shoves the turn over our double donk. Vs. that particular villian and his range I like the play but vs a narrow range don't you think we kind of leave our selves in an awkward spot by donking. So I want to know how you would adjust your play post flop vs a nittier range?

vs a tighter range and more in-line opponent i would not lead the flop almost ever

vs a tighter range and more in-line opponent i would not lead the flop almost ever

So Vs this guy its always a stack off if he raises the flop or turn?
