PygmyHero has a special guest this week, BigBadBabar. They review a video of AdriennesRevenge playing with her team members, micro landlubbers.

About Passing the Torch Subscribe to

A year ago, Entity took PygmyHero under his wing in the series "Real Life: Microlimit Grinder," and coached him from struggling at $.5/$1 to winning at 10x the stakes. Now it's Pygmy's turn to give back, as he takes a struggling microlimit LHE student, AdriennesRevenge, and attempts to duplicate the success he's had in the past year.

It's called soul read. Boomer is an expertWink

I don't fold here aswell, but as you said Jess is the tightest player on this table and her capping range is soo (was) narrow. So Boomer can't really be happy about any improvement, a Q is domenated by KK,AA (QQ) and A is dominated by AK - and IMO that was about the range for Jess capping here - JJ and AQs might be the only "good" combos for Boomer.
With Aumorgan in with his silly silly line so far I really don't mind Boomers fold - though the pot is huge and the 3 A outs will be good very often.

I'd definitely fold as much as ATo here. UTG in a game where people aren't getting out of line much, I think AJo is a marginal 3-bet. UTG ranges are just too tight and even when people occasionally have J9s or such in their range, you're just gonna own the hell out of yourself by 3-betting dominated Aces, especially because none of you can find folds postflop because you're on camera. Smile

So yeah, A6o is a really really bad 3-bet, but I'm even tighter than BBB seems to be here and could get behind folding AT and AJ here.

Folding 8h8s on the KhTh2h board is by far the best play. I noticed that you didn't mention AUmorgan behind us which is the main factor influencing my decision. There's a very good chance of getting 3 bet behind us and having very few outs. Our heart outs are obviously dirty, but also our UTG got 3 bet and cold capped. Getting overset is a real concern. While the pot is big, the pot being multiway makes this situation very unfavorable for us. While our pot odds go up incrementally, our odds of winning the pot decrease expotentially with each player in the pot.

Great analyzis.

The thing with my turn raise was (I think it was) that she either had AQ, JJ-QQ - maybe 99 as you got to. With AK, KK, TT she would have fastplayed the flop I believe. So she had like 16 combos I might get value from and 18 combos of which I was behind, but who knows she might fold JJ-QQ sometimes and def 99 if that was in her range (maybe not vs me). So I did really consider the turn bet as a semi-bluff / valuebet, thoughts?

BTW insta raise tend to scare people Poke Tongue

Yeah I remember this hand..

I was so wtf, cc 3bet preflop, x/3bet flop I insta thought TT,JJ,JTs - and adjusted my play to that. RB's line just didn't make much sence and really confused me. Boomer was a little easier to put on a range since he didn't cap the flop.

But honestly I didn't think I had enough for capping flop or raising the turn. Sure it was TP+SD but vs RB's weird weird FPS line I was soo confused and made a wtf river call.

LOL this is so strange looking back at.

I remember that I thought he would fold to the turn or river lead without a Heart or PP+, whily my check should look like a xc plan? I obv didn't wan't him to fold, and if I could just pickup the 1BB extra from him that would be good.

Really FPS - but honestly I'm confused in those spots with the über nuts and how to extract the most value Frown

But you know what I never thought I was able to b/3b turn or river vs the majority of his range :S

Hey everyone, a couple things:

Big thanks to BBB for joining me on this episode. It was awesome working with him - we had a lot of laughs and I think we put together some really sick poker content.

I want to let everyone know that the vid almost didn't make it up in time. This was entirely my fault and I assume 100% responsibility for it. BBB and I were having some tech issues (my computer had the file, his has Camtasia, neither of us has used dual headsets before, we had a problem with either playing the wmv file or operating Camtasia, etc. etc.). Again, this was completely my fault and I apologize for not being better prepared.

That said, DC really came through on this and I want to let everyone know how awesome they are. Basically I didn't get the video uploaded until about 8 hours before it hit the site, yet the staff turned it around in a hurry because they're the best. I don't know if I should be thanking any particular individuals here, so if anyone wants to step up and elaborate on the DC production side that'd be cool. Anyway, I want to personally say that I really appreciate everyone's efforts on this and again say that I'm sorry I put them in that situation in the first place. Thanks much for bailing me out. Smile



yeah <3 pyg and dc a ton for all the help here. thanks for letting me cameo!

BBB is responsible for 3/4 of the talking. Don't let him do vids on his own! The result would be MIN 3 hours. Can't think of Entity + BBB...



suns would go supernova for sure Smile
