Poker Video: No Limit Hold'Em by Ansky (Mid Stakes)

I'd like to point out after watching this I think what I said here is very wrong, several things.

Like someone above posted, I don't actually have many jacks on this river. I can have JJ and AJ basically, maaaaybe JT, but I'd frequently check that and also JJ.

Secondly, I am not happy with my c/c river. I think his betsizing completely rules out QJ, and it's FAR more likely that he randomly makes a dumb call with something worse than a jack, than he calls w/ QJ.

Sorry for the screw up, just wanted to clarify that I played that hand and explained it wrong.

would u fold 22-55 and A10o, QJo, and A2-A4s , so 66+ A5s+ AJo+ JTs+ or is that still too loose?

5 bet w/ JJ for value. You said he will have AK and TT enough to make it +EV. Would he not have to have 99+,AQ in his 4 bet/call it off range for JJ to be (barely) ahead of his value range?

Against strictly tt+ and AK, I have 43%. He obviously has worse than that sometimes, and sometimes is folding.

I don't think it's an exact science, but I'd say anything worse than A8s, ATo, KQo, QTs, 78s, starts getting tricky.

thx for vid Dani!
love this series

Good series. I'd keep enjoying the live sweat instead hh-review. 6 tables is fine but the max for a vid to follow action and interpret your discussion correctly.

For the HUD: someone explained it above already I think but choosing the preferred seat in the PS client [options > preferred seat > preferred seat at 6-player table]. You have seat 5, just go to HM > Hud options > seating preferences > Pokerstars and chose seat 5 for the 6-max option. It should now work withouth you having to move HUD boxes.

Hey
would really appreciate it if you could explain your thought process a little more on the Turn. I have problems putting people on ranges when they raise the Turn, like in this hand. What would you do with AK AQ? What do you think about his raise with his hand? You said later in the vid that you thought people were doing this a lot as a bluff on midstakes.

(turned set w/ 77 bottom right)

you didn´t even think about leading the turn, why? pro/contra?

30:30

u overbet when the flush hit on the river.. but do you ever overbet the river with a flush given its very likely he has an Ace type hand so he will fold. So when you overbet its very likely you are bluffing given you know he has an Ace type hand ? And you wont be betting that big..

I know its a leveling stuff but dont know if he should fold to your overbets that much since you most of the time wont be doing it for value. When he has an sd hand.

oh i seee you talk about it later

If I were in my own spot with AK or AQ or if I was him? I'd play it the same in my spot.

What exactly is your issue with putting people on hands? Typically they are representing a very strong range of hands to flat flop, then raise turn, as he'd only ever really do it with a strong 2 pr+ for value.

i know this is a basic spot but
on the bottom left hand - do you routinely fold 45s (or comperable) here?
is there merit to just always flatting or raising suited connectors 45s+?

I don't really think any of the 3 options are too bad.

Hey Ansky,

In the AJ hand when you get raised on the turn, what hands do you think villain expected you to bet-fold, and what hands do you think he expected you to call turn, fold river? What do you think of villain's preflop call with 76s, and is it something that you see frequently from other regulars at 400nl?

He may have

1) Incorrectly expected me to fold Ax.
2) Expected me to bet better hands than his as semi bluffs.
3) Expected me to bet/fold JJ-KK


Regarding pf, I'd say I do not often see that from regulars, and it is not necessarily profitable.
