Hi Threads,

I really don't like your bet on the turn on table 3. We have showdown value and flush draw, so you are basically protecting against only 4 overcards. Also I don't think we make him fold anything better, maybe a hand like 77 or 88 (if he cbets those on the flop), but he might not even fold that.

The only reason I see for betting is so we can win a bigger pot if we hit our flush on the river, but I don't think villain will have a hand to call us on the river if we hit too often.

What do you think?

I feel like I would get him to fold down to Qx so I expected a lot of folds. I agree it's fairly close though.

Table 3

Why callin is not option there? You are afraid you have reversed implied ods with a K or a Q?

Table 4

We only need 2 streets to get the money in, why not checking to allow him to bluff?

Definitely. Also, there's not much left to win to on my flush anyways.

Definitely an option to consider. This particular board texture offers a lot of draws that I can get value now, and that I don't really want to give a free card to. Also, there are a lot of cards that can come that can freeze the action.

Is there a video where you go over the stats you use in your HUD and also the color codings in HUD and on full tilt notes? I use poker tracker is this hold em manager? Do you have a strong opinion on which is better?

I don't go over my stats in any particular video, but these are the stats.

Name/Hands/Steal/BB fold vs Steal
VPIP/PFR/3-bet/Squeeze/Fold to 3-bet
Flop c-bet/Fold to flop c-bet/Donk bet flop/Limp-call
EP/MP/CO/SB/BTN,<------------------ (this line is all raise first in by postion)

In the next videos I have removed a few of them. Let me know if anything is unclear.


My color codes for FTP are :

green = fish
red = aggro reg
orange = tag
yellow = weak tag
blue = short stacker

In my HUD they are:
purple = 3-bets me a lot
red = will play very aggro pre
green = can 3-bet him a lot

I think that's all off of the top of my head.

This is HEM. From working with students who have PT3 and having HEM myself I feel I have a pretty educated opinion on the two. I think HEM is still vastly superior.

You say calling isn't good. But what if you were fairly confident he would fold to a shove if Diamonds got there and call a shove if Clubs got there?

Problem is there isn't a lot of money left so he may just be shoving the right all the time. Also, that's a pretty specific read to have. Thus, it will be hard to get.

You can turn the link off by going to 'Options' in the main lobby then 'Table Options' then 'Badge Display Options'. In the popup window under 'My View' select 'Display badges without links' from the dropdown menu.

I'm not too worried about a playing knowing whether or not I have T9 in my range. Most players aren't that good of hand readers and don't take that good of notes anyways. I suppose I'd raise it some small percentage of the time if I had a lot of respect for the player.

And yes, that's my plan in general. I also may double-float depending on how the stacks and pot look. I'd like to be able to have a river bluff-raise option though. If he just 3-barrels and we don't have enough to bluff-shove we never get an opportunity to bluff.


What value hands would you be raising in this spot? Or is your plan to be unbalanced until villain gives you some reason to balance with value hands?

I'd typically be value-raising just the tip top of my range for starters, so sets and two-pair. If I was playing in a COvBTN situation vs an aggro player I may consider raising stuff like AQ, but typically I'm not worried about that until the player does something other than just fold unless he has TP or strong draws.

Best regards
