I watched jk3a's first ghost session this friday, perfect timing!

1/2 is midstakes now? sweet, i'm a midstakes player!

thanks ghost, I am getting used to the concept of actually paying attention to board textures, this was really helpful. Also enjoyed the overbetting discussion in the As2s hand. If you can put your opponent on a flush specifically there, do you think it is okay to just shove that river or is the slight overbet the most profitable play there?

so sick. this just made my day.

Pokerstars thinks that it's midstakes, it's under the midstakes tab. But personally I think 1/2 is still small stakes, 2/4-5/10 is midstakes.

Around the 26-minute mark, DeepMindz raises utg and you call from the bb with 33, and it gets checked down. You are super deep with him here, like 365 bb's. Should you be more likely to stab at that pot on the turn and/or river, since he is a thinking player and will be wary of getting too involved with those stacks? If he had a big hand I don't think he would've checked the flop behind because you can't afford to miss a street of value when you're that deep. I might be way off though, just a thought I had when I was watching the hand.

I wouldn't think the stacks there should affect our bluffing frequency since we don't have the ability to really use any of the depth unless we overbet huge I just don't think there's much need to bet there since we have the best hand quite often.

Nice vid. Someone get this man a series.

Around ~18 minutes, you play that KQ pot vs. the swedish juiceball. You check the river to him, which I definitely approve. However, when he bets $20, shouldn't this be a shove almost always? Considering that you crush his range and he is so committed, isn't it reasonable to think that he might call worse hands considering he's getting a gazillion-1 if you shove?

When I look at the hand, the river leaves me thinking you're missing a ton of value. He has like $60 behind, and the pot will be like ~$260 if you shove. That gives him like 4,5-1 pot odds or something, and he might come up with some dumb excuse to call. You say you assume he is a live one, and those people will make up excuses to call.

Do you agree?
