Poker Video: No Limit Hold'Em by KRANTZ (Micro/Small Stakes)

17.02: I don't see why this is a good board to c-bet. Is this because our calling range is broadways and pocket pairs? Then again, how can our opponent know after only 30 hands? Don't we flat low suited connectors, don't we flat suited hands like Axs?

I think this is a board where people tend to give up. If i look at my opponents perceived range, it doesn't really hit him hard. He has either overpairs that most of the time bets. Or he has broadways that missed?

47.10: We 3-bet TT as a bluf.
What hands are we going to flat here? And what hands are we going to 4-bet for value?
What changes when the CO 3-bets a lot and the MP opener is a bad player?
What changes when the CO 3-bets a lot and the MP opener is a tagish regular?
What changes when the CO 3-bets a lot and the MP opener is a lagish regular?

58.42: If you should never think a player thinks the same as you, how can we then give him a certain range in a spot? If u say 'he would probably raise with this part of his range, but fold..', isn't that thinking that he think like you because you would probably raise with that of your range?

AJ on table 4: Hero flats a minraise pre, check/calls flop, check/check turn and then leads river for bout 2/3 pot. Can you open the plan for different parts of our range on the river?

So what about just not really having a 3beting range here is you dont wanna 3B In these positions it cant be that bad calling IP. After all we do have position with a good hand. Maybe this fella doesnt want to extra mental stress while 6tableing. Just a thought let me know what you think.... For me its diff days diff plays. Somedays Im 3B happy and I create alot of image, and some days where Im not as mentally prepped for leveling etc. I might just play a easier postflop game/ possibly tighter to avoid mental clutter, given Im not fully mentally charged, but still grinding cause I know im still profiting.

P.S If you play with the same regs alot then switching it up like this can also be added as a side benifit IMO given players will construct your ranges Alot more poorly, say if you were to always just be 3Betting alot.

different player types have different ranges and methodologies for playing them. so you shouldn't think a player thinks the same as you, you should think he thinks like himself and try to put yourself in his shoes. the more you understand the psychologies of different player types, the easier it is to give them more accurate ranges.

think i'd probably advocate leading nearly any hand we have on the river in this hand

sure, there is no one strategy that is best. do what allows you to play your best and put your opponents in as many confusing/difficult situations as possible. stay aggressive. passivity leads to mistakes.

So it's super thin value to protect the occasional Qhi bluff or do you want him to fold chops?

Do you have any opinion on how to play this vs a small stakes postflop nit (checks back turn a bunch)?

im not sure how you guys calculated that 3betting AQ in a vacuum will be break even. Can anyone help me with that? This preflop math always gets me .
