88 hand on table 2 - Could you explain why you prefer 3-betting to calling? I think 88 is definitely strong enough hand to flat and it plays better in single raised pot, basically now when you're 3-betting stuff like 88 it's really hard for you to have strong hands on let's say Q98s flop so it's quite easy to play against you. 3-betting something like 55 I think is much better because it's not really strong enough to flat OOP.

Why are we betting the 99 hand on the turn in the lower down table? I dont really think he will call with worse hands or that he will fold better hands. The most time he has some Ax Kx Qx type hand I think. Are we just betting to get him to fold his equity share?

this video doesnt play clearly for me. I cant see it.

What would you have done on the upper right if the guy bets the river. Lets say 1/2 to 2/3 pot?

1) 88 is much closer to 66 than TT in terms of equity vs a range
2) its plenty easy for me to have strong hands on Q98s flops, esp since i'm likely to be flatting AQ vs a lot of opponents.

yeah, and maybe a smidge of thin value. the guy was a fish, I think he never has a better hand than us, he never bluffs us later, i think 14 was probably too big though. 10 seems better, maybe even like 8.

scott405, there's a link on the right, below the video, you can download it and try to open from your PC. There could be an issue with your flash player that prevents you from watching directly in the browser.
