Really enjoyed the analysis of how different player types in different positions should determine the right play.

solid gold again...now if I can just take some of it in!

Also did you notice how I don't sound like a 12 year old girl?

Yep. I even heard you catch yourself once. Thanks for a great episode - look forward to the rest.

For the mentally challenged can you explain "back raising" First time i have heard this referenced.

Cheers.

Oh right sorry. Say UTG raises, CO calls, SB 3-bets, UTG calls the 3-bet, and CO then decides to 4-bet. That 4-bet - a raise a player makes after calling a raise earlier on the same street - is a back raise. It's a useful tool in PLO with a hand medium AAxx where you are happier calling than 3-betting the first time around, but once a 3-bet comes in and you can get enough of your stack in PF to make getting it in on the flop trivial, the 4-bet makes sense.

Bottom right; You say you would want to 3bet-bluff? Couldnt the 3bet be for value/protection since we have what we have and we dont think he has a 3?

Another excellent episode. Good job, guys.

I do have one complaint: blue hearts and red diamonds are an abomination. When delcross said something about a heart draw on a flop that was blue and black, I was thinking, WTF? I had to squint to see that the pips were hearts rather than diamonds.

It is sort of a weird line when you try to define exactly what you are 3betting for here. Protection is sort of a weird way to put it since that would mean that we are trying to keep him from catching up, and he rarely has a ton of equity here (he probably doesn't have too many low wraps w/ a FD but he can definitely have FD+gutters or FD+OESD occasionally). We are sort of 3betting to protect...from being bluffed. If that makes sense. We really don't want to call the flop and then call a turn bet because it becomes super gross. Even if we have the best hand, bluff catching is really expensive and not particularly profitable.
