good video again joe! thanks!

one question at the 9KA flush hand. on 4th you have A8 showing and an A6s and a loose player with 4T behind you and bet flat out. is checking with the intention to c/r the field (or maybe calling heads up) too tricky here?

The player behind is folding. If he is not folding that major brick vs our boards, he is calling 132 bets. You take the risk on the A6s that he paired and will check through So bet/3-bet. Now, if there was a 3rd opponent with some other mediocre showing, I highly recommend a c/r, yes.

The 3rd and 4th hand was at the WSOPE. I try to put the deatils to an online hand history format, so you can put that in to the hand history replayer. Unfortunetaly i made same mistakes in the 2nd hand, and i couldn't find what was wrong it, but i try the 1st hand, and the hand history replayer could "read" it.

When i had (A6)-A against Phil i don't like my bet on 4th street. I am not that big of a favourite (53-47% whether he has a pair or 4 to a low (with no straight potential) and i am giving away the strength of my hand. The rest of the hand played itself.
The river action was:
I checked blind.
He bet blind.
I called blind.
I think against Ivey this is correct...

To the 2c-3c-6c hand:
I think i have to jam 4th street.
The calling station 2 had a x-x-7-K board and he called all the 5bets!
The calling station 1 was very short on chips and i didn't put him on rolled up...He would definetely jam one pair of queens only (on 3rd and 4th street) also, just because he has the biggest door card, and the biggest pair possible.

On 4th street i am a big favoruite with my 2c-3c-6c-3s
I have 40%
a Q-Q-K-7 has 31%
and a hand like (2-3)-5-K has 28%

Why is this not a jam?

If the guy happens to have rolled up queens...well...then i am behind (25% for me, 52% for QQQ and 21% for the other guy). But he will more often have only one pair of queens...He was short and desperate...We tried to knock out the "calling station" 1 with the 5-K board, but i'am also happy if he calls the 5bets.

And yeah, there was a 5 bet cap at the WSOPE.
On the end i mistype his hand. He started with QQx and hit runner-runner flush to beat my two pair.

Joe,

Thanks for the video, I'm learning Stud8 and the game really rocks!

On the video, approximately 5 min, you mention that you should learn and get some experience on Stud Hi prior to jumping on Stud 8, can you expand a little on why you think that?

I'm asking because the games seem to have some really different dynamics and I've been focusing only on Stud8.

Hi Joe,
Very nice series. I have bankroll question. What would be your bankroll requirements for 3/6, 5/10 and 8/16 HORSE on FTP. I'm not clueless in the game, most of my bankroll comes form playing low limit HORSE, especially after introducing 6max tables I built it pretty quick. At the moment I play 3/6 regularly with good results, but 5/10 and 8/16 games are often good. Imo, 300BB is enough for 3/6. What about 5/10 and 8/16?

Its easier to gain the position changing experience when not having to explore the dynamic of split pots. It will strengthen your game in the long run for sure (leaning Stud Hi first).

If you study hard and work on it, 300 would be fine yes.
