Yes, and it's not even close. If you won't take my word for it just do some research as I've already posted several times on the subject.

hey grindcore, thx for doing this. 2 remarks:

To your A9o rebluff vs the 93s: at 32min:40sec

Why not check the turn? I'd def be checking the turn there, betting really just makes sense when you hope for a doublefloat which is probably too optimistic. His turn range is air and monsters (our assumption), so instead of hoping for a doublefloat on a card where we rarely are perceived to be bluffing - isnt it better to just pick up a turn bet by checking?!


To The KQ hand you are saying at the end that your line is consistent with a boat - I doubt it. Eventhough given the stacksizes it seems you'd never be bluffing there, most of villains range consists of bluffcatchers (given your pot size turn bet which polarizes your range quite a bit imo), so it doesnt make sense for you to go for a river c/r with a nutted hands, so I'd rarely bet/fold as villain. Dont you think?



I don't rebluff flop, I do it for value knowing he's unlikely to be folding. If I 3b the flop I look like made hand or air. If I c/c the turn I can't have air, so he won't bluff the river and I don't stack him (the last bet is the largest so the most desirable to get out of him). By betting turn I can still be bluffing and he can either jam over it or double float, both resulting in getting the stack instead of only a relatively small turn bet.

table 3 -> A9o:
Here I think you could maybe check to rep a catched Rebluff from the flop which now gives up b/c in Villain`s perceived flopcallingrange are many Ax-hands (so your turnbet looks pretty unbluffy).

Table 2 -> 65s:

I guess with thy dynamic you would have easily jammed over a flop3bet with the assumption that he would have enough Bluff3bets in his range?

That's after I stacked him with A9 right? I think he's gonna be less likely to play back at me then, and more likely to 3b/getitin with KQ or so, so I'd fold.

hi grindcore

awesome vid, as used to be from you Wink

to the A9o hand, I like your flop play, but what infos you want to have to do this, cause of the history with i momo? (or at least that he 3bets AQ+ (maybe AJ) ) i think maybe he is only raising A3,A4,33,44 here for value? (I am asking cause thats a spot where i used to level myself into hand like that A9 Grin )

what about checking the turn?

nice shove w/ his hand, which beats your air and is beaten from your valuerange/bluffcatching range Smile

He actually got counterfeited on the river, so he had 9 high. I overlooked this too at first during the session, but I address it a bit later on.

Checking turn induces a bluff, but when I c/c he knows I have something I'm not folding, so I only get his turn bet out of him. By betting the turn, I can still be bluffing and he can shove on it, or float again and bluff river, in which cases I win his entire stack, so it has to work at a lower frequency. I think it's a very clear turn bet to try to stack him here.

The history I need... I need to know he likes winning every pot and that he's paranoid. His 3b range doesn't really matter. If he flats a strong ace pre he probably doesn't even raise it on the flop because he's so dishonest.
