99 hand.

Do you really think a TAG is raising a worse hand for value there? I mean even if he'd call as loose as you said pre (A8s, J8s) what would he achieve by raising? Not that he is gonna get value from any worse hands unless he thinks you are going to spazz out, or am I wrong?

How much scope do you give to betting 3 or 0 streets? Do you mean specifically on boards like this or is it frequently better to 3 or 0?

generally more about the player type than the board-- regs will float a lot of things one or two streets and fold a lot of rivers, while fish will either fold flop when they miss or call all the way down.

Makes sense, thanks for the response. My thinking was just so many draws on flop, since he is going with the said hands anyway, why not get a lot of money now, then we can make a smaller bet on the turn in relation to pot but larger in absolute dollar size and he can still shove turn.


I think it depends on villian if he is aggro then bet small to induce, if he is somwhat passiv bet big and pray for a call.

16.34: Kristy has AJo in the CO. Unknown opens but he seems to be a regular. Isn't this hand the same type of hand as the ATo? Wouldn't a 3-bet be better?
What do we do with a hand like QKo? If I understand you I think we should also 3-bet that hand instead of calling it? What is the worst broadway then you would always call in a spot like this?

17.00: TQs. Versus a tight regular, shouldn't we be folding TQs? What is our goal with a hand like this? Flopping two pair or better?

34.15: I see why we check back the flop with JJ on K6Qm. What do we do when our opponent bets the turn? Its a spot where I end up calling a lot while it might be just better to fold. It probably depends how often our opponent is betting when we show weakness, but at a big player pool its hard to figure out because the % of unknowns we are playing is huge. Same goes for a spot where we decide to not c-bet with an underpair and the opponent bets out. I end up being tight passive most of the time.

43.38: we bet the turn for value on J8xQ, what do we do when we get called and we get the river A? check/fold? I think betting for value gets too thin? I don't think we can check/call on the river.

What if the river was not an A, but a low card? Can we then bet for value again?

51.59: Isn't MP in this hand too tight to be calling A7s on the button? He playes 15/13 after 46 hands. What are we doing with this type of hand? Trying to hit the nuts? I can't see us bluf catching? what about TKs in the very next hand?

59.37: Why do we have bad fold equity with AK on a Q96r board?
