I'm not quite sure I understand this call.
Isn't this hand pretty razzy?
Also by just calling you're turning your hand face up imo.
There is at least one better 3Card Low out there and if you catch another ace it will be hard to keep it a secret what you have...

do you ever limp in early position to balance those kind of hands with your really good hands, as you hate getting 2 bet by a card behind with a bad pair in the hole? This way you can just limp call or limp raise your good hands.

how about a valuebet here with 77?
he seems to me like the kind of player who will call with just 55...
or is it not a good idea because all his kickers were live, meaning you would more likely do it if say 2 kings and a jack were dead? (as he would imo c/c with a rivered 2pair)

I agree somewhat with a valuebet there vs uh_oh, obv its very thin but our hand could be a low-only in his eyes, there is some vale w/5 and 6 on his board to call us with one of those pairs.

It's razzy yes, and I'm sure blump folds if he does not have an Ace up. Not sure if you noticed but uh_oh brought it in for full, this is often a sign up weakness and the player is trying to 'protect' his hand. Mostly junky-razz hands, baby pairs, and mid-pairs (say like (99) (TT) in the hole). We fair decent against those hands.

It is close and blump does mention that in the video.

This video was made before I became a Deucescracked coach. Now, I expect you will see more of these "ghost" videos from me in the near future.

I noticed that this guy is still listed as a DC coach, but hasn't made any vids for a while. Any reason for this?

is this a standard fold? his range could be wider than that.
even if his range is as tight as you said, is it stil a fold?

Time Link to 00:33:09

is limping here profitable? vs lose opponents? two 4s are dead...

Time Link to 00:37:09

I guess I know why you make the completion on 3rd but I know that it would generate any money for me because when I brick and one of them is going to hit, which is likely to happen, I guess I have to peal once because they only limped?

meh,,, Im just confused could you elaborate on why completing is way better than just calling?

one benefit for just calling is that they make larger mistakes on 4th when you catch well and they don't because they get worse pot odds.

Time Link to 00:39:32

seems like burning money here completing 3rd. isnt it?

Time Link to 00:41:01

do you stil make this fold?

Time Link to 00:48:44

isn't raising better here? you don't want to get lowcards in the pot even though your hand looks obvious? it ll look obvious at some point anyway+ people might stil call?

Time Link to 00:50:16

he ll bet for sure when you check, won't he? so c/r might be better. I know he isn't folding but just for balancing blabla
