Table 5 w/ ATs, are you donking the flop on purpose or did you think you were cbetting? If you were donking on purpose could you tell why thats good spot to donk and are you planning on barreling much?



probably thought i was cbetting, sorry.

when u replay a hand, can u do it after the session? its quite annoying to listen and see u drag it all of over the other tables, and then talking like 5sek, play another hand get back to the old hand for 5sek again etc, great video otherwise and always good talking



Agree, this is a good suggestion.

WIth the Q9 hand I know that you know you can bet this size as a bluff but do you think people in general will put bluffs in your range?



I'd expect him to sometimes think so, especially because he probably expects me to think he'd sometimes raise a q on the flop.

Hey Dani,

Table 1 here you 3-bet the 55 vs. the button, I know your logic and why you are doing it, you've covered it a dozen times. My question is this, are you ever 3-bet folding it vs. a tight 4-bettor, would you just outright fold it pre-flop if you didn't think the 5-bet jam would be profitable? I play micro stakes so I don't run into a lot of guys with a high 4 bet frequency.

-Thanks.




I'd almost always prefer to 3b/fold than to just fold the first time with 55. I think I'd be playing unreasonably tight if I couldn't 3b 55 there.

Which rivercards would you call a jam on with K5? Do you expect villain to give up frequently in that spot (on something like a 2h)?
I personally don't see villain checking many rivers with a bluff (maybe on another king), so I'd be very reluctant to fold after calling turn. An ace is not a bad card either (as opposed to 3,5,6,8 or a club).
Combinatorically it's a tough fold as well, I would'nt expect Villain to always call 86s preflop, he's almost definitely folding 63s to a 3x open. We can also discount sets and straights to some extent because of his flop play and he only needs 5 combos of bluffing hands anyways. I'm not saying I hate your fold on the river, but if your assumptions about Villain are correct, it might be better to fold the turn.

Why not do the replayer hand review before the live action? Impossible to follow 6-tables + commentary on the replayer hand, especially when the replayer is hidden in the background.

A++ series, thanks

I doubt he goes for multiple streets of value with slightly worse value hands (Kx, pps, 8x). He sometimes checks those hands which hurts me, but if he calls down after I donk I might get 3 streets (and charge draws that might have taken free card on flop.

I enjoy these fast past vids fwiw, if its too much for some its easier to pause a vid and digest than get bored, lose focus and ultimately end up browsing the web or watching porn Wink

TOP left table with KQ on K78ss when you called 3b oop and decide to lead. Im curious why would you lead here? He should know you dont have many bluffs in this spot, and Im sure you CR most of your draws here, if not all of them. So why lead when he will be suspicious of a CR on this drawyB. Also if you dont lead what do you like better CR, or Chkcall? Thanks. Very good video so far.

In the hand versus timothee on the k73r flop turn A river 8 you say its best to shove most of your range for vlaue and bluffs and that his call is fine bc ajo is the top of his range and he needs to call there to not be exploitable. I'm not sure I agree. Let's take a look at your oop checking range there, maybe 2 combos of kk, half the combos of a7s, maybe 1 combo of a4s, some combos of jts qts, and hands like at+ some percentage. with no backdoor flush draw. I forgot the exact board so I apologize if some of the assumptions are incorrect. I think your betting most of your complete air on that flop for 1 barrel and prob most of your small pairs and mid pairs. You can correct me if I'm wrong about your c-betting ranges. So on a Ace turn, you actually have a decent amount of combos of big aces and 2 pair hands. and very few semi bluffs and pure bluffs. On the river when you overbet shove 2x pot about you actually remove hands like hands at and worse, funky played Kx hands and some combos of aj I think. So in a spot where you have mostly strong value hands and very few pure bluffs, the exploitative play by timothee is to fold aj because its the bottom of your value shipping range I think. The bigger you bet the less hands he has to to call with to avoid being exploited. And while I think your definitely strong enough to exploit a spot like that, I'm not sure how often it comes up with that board and action. The less common the board and action, the less you really have to worry about being exploited. He has negative expectation on his call because of your range and your bet size. And if this is true, you lose too much value from his calling range by overbet shoving then you gain with your bluffs by overbetting(then again he did call but still think its a mistake on his part). I guess the built-in assumption to this whole argument is I doubt your bluffing this spot with total air enough for his call to be correct based on the action as this line makes your range more narrow than if you took a bet bet overshove line where aj is almost a snap call I think. This is just my best guess, I'd like to hear your opinion about it. Sorry about the rambling.
