6 hi flush on the right when your plan was to check before he bet, what is your plan from then on?

great vid and I look forward to more from you as I am now venturing into PLO more

Nice one - Great Video.

Nice to see an opponent at PLO200 with 92% VP$IP - Not just at the micro's then

left table w/ JJ78ds OTB, what are you doing if CO limps or raises?

If CO limps I'm probably going to try and iso-raise him. The blinds don't seem to be as bad as him, so probably playing a HU pot with him IP is more profitable than inviting the blinds in. I would rather him have 100bbs behind but still think it'd be fine. Limping along would also be an option if the blinds were weak.

If the CO raises I just flat IP, I think folding's too weak and it's not a great 3betting hand with those stack sizes, esp considering he hasn't been opening that much.

Honestly in a limped pot I'm going to try and get to SD cheaply. If the BTN bet I think I might just muck my hand, it just has a lot of RIO and poor visibility OOP, I'm still going to have to check/fold the turn or river if I put money in on the flop so it's not a great spot. If the flop checks around I might stab the turn for protection, might just get a bit of value from sets/2pairs. Again I might have to check/fold river as I don't think there's value in betting twice with what's basically bottom flush, I expect my opponents to be SD bound with non flushes. It's a spot where I kind of rather have top set than such a low flush, cause then at least you have decent equity against other flushes, while with a baby flush you can be putting money in with basically 0% equity.

Appreciate the comments! Maybe next time I'll go for a HH or video review to make sure we get into more interesting spots.

Yeah, I definitely enjoyed your other video in the replayer as well because you are good at breaking down hands when you have the ability timewise to do so. I realize this is obviously pretty hard to do while ghosting.

Hand: K763ds: in my opinion too weak to complete against two unknowns, stats are <10hands from the opponents not really significant, or?

against the 88/22 why not potting the turn when you wanted to commit anyway? Balancing in this spot can' be a great point of concern against the fish imho.

hand: AAQ4ds: Why betting so small? Isn't it better to destroy villains equity in the pot on that flop? Hero has good eq with Top Overpair +NFD but its not a Monster in absolute terms. Maybe to induce bluff-shoves?

hand A8xx on the river: think against his range a smaller Vbet works better. 1/4 potish and you can either get calls from Trips or induce bluffCRes from busted FDs. Your bet in combination with the line looks imo too strong.

What's most significant is the BTN limped, that's a clear sign he's a weak player. Both players having less than 70bb stacks is usually also a sign that they're not very strong. I don't mind folding though, definitely a weak hand.

Potting the turn would've been better.

Yes, I'm trying to induce an extra light semi-bluff shove or at least induce a call on the flop with hands he would fold to a shove.

Yea, betting somewhere around $20-$30 would be good here, I bet on the bigger side hoping he had an Ace and wouldn't fold for any amount, but giving him some room to x/raise or call down with an unlikely 8 would probably be more +EV. I don't think he bluffs that often at all, but he also rarely has a strong enough hand to call a big bet.

Thanks for your questions.
