Here on bottom right. What if he's betting ? Why are we calling the turn with the read that he bets middle pair (like TT on Khigh board) ? With that read we could think that he is betting TT-88 , Kx, Qx or TJ. And if he's betting 88-TT isn't it better to bluff river?

Hi Grindcore! It's good to have a new series of yours.

Why do you want to c/r the flop on top left? If you get 3bet you're probably in tought decision. Do you think you can be called by pocket 7's here? Don't you think donking is better? Would you consider donking headsup?

Sorry about the audio levels, they were fine in the video I produced but seem enhanced in the final video. I'll remove the table sounds completely for the rest of the series.

it was hard to tell because of the noises, but did you say your plan was to c/r and get it in with the TT on t1? if so, do you think they will be willing to stacking off with 55-99?

It's a new player. I said that against the guy that was betting the range you give above there I'd even fold to the flop cbet!

Against this guy I call flop because he's new/unknown so he's likely to be cbetting polarized. I call turn because of his betsizing tell. Raising is an option too, followed by a river check, as he might be bet/folding something like AQ with that size and he might call the raise with a turned draw. You can actually see me consider the play but I had like 3 seconds left so I just clicked call Poke Tongue

Yeah I wasn't very clear on that hand. I mostly meant against button, as he'll likely bluff his air when checked to (which is why I didn't donk), and also bet all his overpairs which he won't fold to a c/r. BB never has JJ+ because he'd squeeze. I'm assuming the guy that called in position probably also 3bets most premiums, so against a range of overpairs on that board I'm ahead. If the PFR cbets his range is actually a lot stronger and I'd probably c/c that.

I just replied to something similar at the same time you posted this so check out that reply, but I'd like to add that this is also NL50 based. I'm assuming people are less likely to fold hands with good absolute value (overpair in this case) as their hand reading isn't good enough yet. At NL200 I'd assume a reg would mostly fold, so I might do some more c/r bluffing there.

First of all,
great that you make another series for DC - loved already your thin RedLine-seriesWink

@hand:
I am not sure tbh if it is readless a solid assumption that someone calls in this spot a 3bet with small pocketpairs.
When you think about a standard-3betcallingrange , the flopcbet seems imo to pretty close.

It depends Smile

If I feel he's bluffing I c/c. If I feel he has a hand he really likes I'll c/r as he probably won't fold despite how strong my line looks.
