What hand are you talking about? The AKs?
KJs table 1
QT is an extremely standard check. Cbetting there is a pretty big leak. There's no way I'm ahead when a cbet gets called. And there's only 1 overcard to my hand, I don't gain much by protecting.
AK is kinda like QT. Though their air has more equity vs me here, they might have dirty outs to compensate for that. I'd rather cbet a low pp than AK.
Does it change something that you were 3ways with AK ? HU are you cbetting?
Maybe I missed something but are you not cbetting because you have showdown value or because yo uthink you wont get called by worst hands?
thx

I'd check both. Checking back is better HU than multiway I think, but it kinda depends on your opponents.
Both.
J7o sure him checking back doesn't mean he has nothing. But he's not checking 9x on the flop and then suddenly betting the overcard turn. Same for 8x. When he bets the Q he's way more likely to now be taking a stab with air than to have spiked a Q becuase his preflop limping range is mostly low cards. The fact that our pair is 3rd doesn't matter. Any bluffcatcher is the same there as he's polarized. There's no reason to bet the turn because he's folding everything we beat, so it's better to check and give him another chance to bluff.
100% right.. I didnt think about that before. I was just thinking that you got 3rd pair on a low connected board and an overcard comes on the turn so its a fold.
And I have another question about cbetting from my last post ( 43:27, Table 4 QT). You said checking back is standart wQT. I understand that you have nothing to protect from (because just one overcard). And by cbettting you cant really get called by worst. But if you had second pair on a low flop and there was a lot of overcard that can come on the turn, would you cbet ? I mean, If you cant really have value by betting, is protection a good reason to cbet ?
do you think that a triple barel could be good here ? because vilain would have check raised the flop with sets and his range is pretty much draw, pair+draw or some over pair. You dont think that a triple barel could make him fold all his pair+draw and draw that miss the river ?
I understand the point of checking back but I just want to know if it can be a good spot for 3barel.
(43:15 in the video)
No, because he has a ton of Ax in his flop calling range that made a straight. And there's no reason to assume he's checkraising a set on a rainbow baby board.
Grindcore, you convinced me obviously to play 4 tables from now on, but what do you think about brm? My only goal is to play winning 200nl asap and i am thinking about very aggro brm. I dont need to live from it or whatever.
Something like this is my idea. Fitst limit, second when to start, third when to move down.
20 200 140
50 600 450
100 1300 1000
200 2800 2200
Some friends tell me this is stupid, but if you improve and are not too proud to move down after losing, i don't really see why i shouldnt try. So, what is your opinion on this? Tnx man

funny, table 1 at 29:10, you assume that 'player bets' is not a winning player, but he has won a decent amount actually :-)

Hmm. Odds of a 40/20 guy over a few hands that showed fishy smelling betsizes being a winning reg are low though. Gotta be realistic.
true
no complaints, just comical
Very nice video.
At 33 min bottom right table-88 hand,after checking turn if villain lead outs the river then till what bet size are we calling????Would it be correct to call almost any bet size <pot size because he cant really have much value hands there???I am talking of the low river cards as I think we should fold on any J+ river card.Not sure though.
At 48 min 77 hand when you called the turn I interpreted it as:Villain mostly wont be barreling any Qx as the board is fairly dry.So his betting range is Kx and stronger and air.We put more air in his range because of his sizing but the board is dry so he may very well be betting smaller with his strong hands too.This means that he mostly has a polarized range so we call with 77.On the river when he checks you said that a bet is also +EV.Is the reasoning behind it that we want him to fold weak Kx,88,TT,JJ??Is my thought process correct??

There's always a chance that he was going for a value checkraise on the turn so he could still show up with good hands on the river. If he checked with air presumably it was to give up so it wouldn't make sense to suddenly bet river again. He'll mostly check river, but when he doesn't he's probably valuebetting. So we should probably fold unless he bets 2bbs or something so we can just call for info+potodds.

Yes. But betting there is better at higher stakes where people are more capable of folding top pair.
