Jared is an extremely talented poker mind. It's super great to have him as an addition to our already ballin' DC lineup.

Awesome vid man, look forward to more. At the ~43 min mark, I think when the idiot leads $10 into $53, it's a clear call after every single draw missed and getting such a good price with nut no pair. Sick fold w/ the AK after the ch/mr, you play good... nit. :-)

Good video, my only complaint was the A10s hand. Villain check-raised the flop, i think the flop call is good but when the 2nd deuce spikes the turn. It is a definite bet there. Any hand that you can get value out of the river on is calling the turn bet, not to mention all his FD's get a free pass and their are way more combos of Flush draws than overpairs/sets.

Good video though

Agree, would prefer to bet the turn and check back river. I wouldn't give the villain credit for semibluff-checkraising twice, so it's a pretty easy fold it he raises on the turn again

Some percentage of the time people will be bluff check/raising twice, or spazzing out with a hand like KTo. If you check turn he can't bluff you off your hand, and you might induce river bluffs and there are probably also a few hands that are willing to call a river bet, but not a turn bet because: 1. your hand looks stronger when you bet turn 2. he could be willing to call a river bet and see a showdown, but if he calls turn he think he need to call the river too for a showdown.

Both lines are good imo.

As I said in the video, both lines have merit and knowing which is best is really dependent on reads we don't have. You'd be surprised how stationy lots of players get when you check the turn and bet the river.

I'd be much more willing to call something like 1/2 pot as the idiots will def bluff with small bets, but I don't think they'll bluff with that small size hardly ever. That said, calling for small chance of being good + info is certainly fine and I think raising is clearly best in that spot.

at 42 min in the hand where u have 44, why are you such a huge fan of his play? His river overbet sux for value(since your calling range narrows ldo) so its more likely to be a bluff without any history.

If you had KQs in that spot would you have called? Even though his bet may not be at all balanced or good as a value bet, it's also very difficult to give an unknown tag credit for an overbet bluff.

Excellent vid. I can identify with a lot of the things you said in regard to something *possibly* being +EV, but passing up on the huge variance and keeping a snug image instead. You're probably going to get the fish's money anyway one way or another, so destroying your image against the thinking players and having all these metagame considerations can make things a lot tougher than it really has to be when mulit-table grinding.

Around the 11:30 mark on the upper left table, your UTG raise gets min-squeezed by the SB. You decide to flat leaving the button with ~1 PSB's left and the SB has ~2 PSB's left going to the flop. You mentioned you're not necessarily "pair mining" postflop and that you can bluff some flops. Which flop textures are you looking to bluff? Like you said, SB has an insanely tight range here, and 3-handed won't just about any flop hit one of these short stacks where they're willing commit themselves?

Solid & good stuff on flop texture -like you said that hand at the end with j7 eloquently summed up your points.

For reals bet-fold turn? What are you betting turn, 55? You would have to call a 100 into 300? I wouldn't fold to turn shove, these guys can talk themself into spazzing out with a flush draw, KT, or 88, thinking your line is strange/fishy/weak. You would really have to put him like on 44 exactly.

But maybe that's just me cause I am a spew monkey.

good ?, it honestly has more to do with it appearing that both villains are giving up and I end up most of the time bluffing with the best hand.
