ship it!

Zwei thumbs up!

Wow. One of the best vids I've seen in a long time. Games are going to get a lot tougher, IMO

Horrible idea now that people will playe better. That said, good video

This math is slightly wrong. It actually only needs to work about 1 out of 5 times to be correct. 4 Times you'll lose $120 and 1 time you'll win $495. A minor point, but I think still relevant. Still agree with all arguments you made about how to play the hand.

Even though you didn't reraise the turn in the actual hand, you felt reraising this turn was probably better. I'm curious what type of better hands your targeting hoping to fold on the river? Seems like a lot of cards that get him to fold better on the river improve us anyways and I agree that a lot of his semi-bluffing range hits the 8. Do expect villains to fold a 4 or maybe a 7? I was fairly surprised to see him show up with AJ here, is it common for players at these levels to play a hand like AJ for value on these board textures?

Same Error here with the math behind the bluff raise. Your risking 60 to win 375, so it needs to work a little less than 1 out of 6 times to be break even.

In addition to slide's analysis, would you care to comment on opponent's river play (assuming you find it ethical to do so)? I can think of a few justifications - involving the specific turn card - but nothing that holds up on closer inspection. I'm asking because you talked about the opponents' plays in other hands but didn't comment on this one.

Yeah I made a silly math error. I'm bad at math (and also fairly silly). I forgot to count our bet in the pot, so thanks for the correction! *blush*

As far as this villain's play, I'd probably have c/f the river as played, but I'd also at least consider c/c the turn in his spot.

He's hoping that I have a hand like QJ or Tx, but if you look at the hand range vs. range, I think his hand is way too weak given that I'll just check behind the river with a large part of my range.

Lots of questions here. I'd say it's somewhat common and I'm not shocked to see the hand, only a little surprised. That said I have fairly good equity against his range so obviously he needs to have a hand like AJ or KJ or something similar less often than usual for a semibluff to be correct. I'd have to run some numbers but it's probably a pretty close spot.
