Table3:

Which cards would you doublebarrel on the Turn/ triplebarrel on the River, if your opponent would call you on the flop?



Spades are pretty obvious 2-barrel cards. He can't really raise me off hand very often since I have the As. So, I get to realize my equity a lot. I would often also barrel on cards that scare 2nd pair (J, T, etc).

You said, that you choose hands for double barrel at the flop, which have good equity against the callingrange.

1. Which equity against the callingrange should a hand approximately at least have, that you would consider this hand as a good doublebarrel hand?

2. Do you value Outs to the Nuts higher then for example outs to Overcards?

2. Would you distinguish between OOP and IP? (e.g. OOP higher equity required then IP)

3. Do you also take into consideration, if you have a higher Foldequity on certain Flops?

Btw awesome video. I already learnt a lot. I am looking forward to watch the other vids :-)




1) I typically will tend to bet flops with BDFD's or better if I don't think I have a particularly high amount of FE.

2) Yeah, I generally am more likely to bet a hand OOP than IP. IP I can use delayed c-bets + I'm guaranteed to see the turn. OOP that's no longer true, so the value in checking goes down. When we're deciding whether to bet or check then we are trying to figure out which is better. Checking goes up a lot in value when we're IP, comparitively speaking, where betting is not necessarily increased that much.

3) Yes, for sure. The more I have implied odds the more likely I am to check, though checking OOP is rough because we can get bet at a lot and c/c'ing draws as the PFR is usually worst than betting ourselves.

TY TY. Glad you've enjoyed it.

Why are you more likely to bet on this board KJo instead of A7?

Would you bluffcatch with A7o on this board vs this player?




KJ actually has more equity when called, imo, so it's a higher +EV bet. It's a better hand vs his calling range A7 might actually be better to just c/f as it doesn't have a lot of equity when called, doesn't get better hands to fold, and doesn't get called by worse. We may or may not have enough FE to make A7o a +EV bet, but it's a lot easier to make KJ a +EV bet because we just have more equity overall.

Hey threads, just a quick post to say I've started watching your series and it's really useful stuff. I'm contemplating the move from 6max to FR and it's good to see how it plays and the different considerations required. I'm currently donking up the supermicro full ring tables to try it out and it's going pretty well tbh.

I've a quick question about 'reggish stats' which you probably address is some other video. I know there's no such thing as optimal stats or anything but I'm trying to work out if I'm simply playing far too loose in general. I've obviously tightened up compared to 6max but in my mind I've pretty much just added an additional 3utg seats that have a few extra options due to not being the first to act. Is this a reasonable way to think about it until I've more FR experience? I've found myself to be the far loosest player at every table I've played at so far.

Cheers Smile

The way I look at it is the CO is the CO in both games. You make your decision on your opening range based on who is on your left. So, you will be opening the same sort of ranges in that seat as it's the same thing in both games. In FR you have to play really tight in those extra 3 seats. You have to player tighter than what you would in the first two seats in a 6-max game by a long shot. In a 6-max game I'll typically open at least 15% UTG. In a FR game it's more like at least 7%.

Thanks for the reply,

I've noticed you talking about UTG ranges in terms of playability, advocating folding the lower pockets and adding in the higher suited connectors in their place. 7% looks something like 66+ AKo+ AQs+ JTs+ I'm still getting my head around folding pp and AQo utg, but it makes sense and I'm going to give it a go.

Yeah, I'd be more inclined to fold the 66 in favor of opening AJs.

I have a few questions in reference to the A9o hand, vs a more aggressive player would you be more inclined to CB the flop?

As played if they called the turn would you fire again on any rivers? Bet size and why please?

Thanks

T86m and you say we bet a $1.50 because they are going to fold ton of the time. Are all 4 players really going to fold on this board or are you talking specifically about these particular players your playing against. I think this is a check back because I expect a ton of draws to call and the board gets ugly on so many turn cards. Is this flawed logic on my part?

VS a more aggro player I'd be less inclinded to c-bet. I think that means he's less likely to fold and that's pretty much what we're counting on to c-bet that flop.

I would tend to check back the river if called. I'd be more inclined to 2-barrel something like T9 that I had delayed c-bet. I think sometimes we're up against a draw on the river so it's fairly close between checking and betting. It's nice to see his hand when it's relatively close between betting and checking.

Yeah, when the action goes down this way it's very unlikely anyone has even TP. So, that's quite a bit of folding right there if you're betting vs ranges that are that weak. When they do call you'll have quite a bit of equity because you're rarely dominated. You'll be coin-flipping a lot, and dominate a decent amount, and be 60-70% a lot. But mostly these guys will just have a ton of A-high and K-high and be folding.

When I get called I'd happily bet the obvious brick turns.
