On the A7 hand at about 20mins, you say that it would be a bad spot for him to bluff with like 54 or some bottom pair; because your range is polarised. Would we not be betting flop and turn with like 88-KK here, this is something I nearly always do especially once the ace pairs.
ABSOLUTE GOLD! Keep it up guys, this series is unbelievably good. Why can't every day be HU day from you guys!? ![]()
It just goes to show the depth of talent here at DC. My pick of the series this season.
At 52 min when he donks Q88, I assume you would just flat a made hand there? And that basically when you raise you almost always have a bluff, but that it's ok because he's just not aware or have the balls to do something about it?
wow about 25 mins intot he video now and there is some very good discussion here.

You betting 88 and KK once an A hits on turn for value because you can get called with worse. But in general its very bad spot to represent that A. what he meant that whatever he called the flop with he is calling on turn too once the A hits.
Hey Internet Pokers I want to play you for practice before moving up
Im 17PTBB/100 winner on 100NL and I think i can beat your A$$ ![]()
With the K8 hand on the J42 monotone board, I think the most believeable way to make him fold his Q would be to pot the turn and slighty overbet the river, because at 200NL people tend to overbet their strong hands alot...

This is precisely consistent with not bluffing; because you expect to get called by worse quite often when you bet KK.

We can certainly either flat or raise with a big hand (depending on the size of course, the weaker hands we're always flatting). I don't think you can say that when we raise we almost always have a bluff, although I can't pretend to remember the dynamic all that well, but the fact of course that we're hesitant to raise that flop with complete junk means that we're obviously not going to be bluffraising it all that often. The important thing however, isn't really that we balance our range here with having enough valueraises and enough bluffraises, the important thing is that we are able to deduce what range he's leading that flop with and play optimally against it. So he could be bet/calling out with QT or 55, but once we have enough information to deduce what his strategy is then we try to exploit it as best we can. This is a spot where balance is irrelevant until your opponent makes it relevant.
at 60 min, you choose your cbet to 32 on 942 w/TT. How does this affect your cbet size in the future 3bet pots? do you now have to go with 32 each time so he doesnt get a read on your betsize in 3bet pots (atleast on the same textured boards)? If this didnt get to showdown would you just pick and choose the next time too?
all this is assuming still 100bb stacks, i know betsizing would usually be bigger when deeper. Great series btw!
Hi! Im Sjing Sjong in this video. First of all thanks for giving me this free training. I was watching this video on my first monitor and have my 2nd monitor display my hands in Holdem Manager.
Pretty funny to see myself play 3 months ago. I was lolling a few times when i was watching my own hand in Holdem manager. On the Jd2d4d flop i had KT of clubs. I would never play it that way now
In the hand where you have A7 on the A75 flop where i have 55 i think my check/call is also nonoptimal. I would check/raise the flop instead of the turn now because it is a better line i think because of the monotome board.
I thought your floating out of position with Td8d was brilliant eventhough it was just a small pot. Really shows why your level of thinking is ahead of many.
Loved the discussion on the double 3-bet. The discussion was spot on. I was going to call the one hand that looked best
. Should have folded them both.
I played the AhTd hand VERY bad where you had a set of 7's. Check/calling that board was bad, not checkraising that turn was also bad.
The last $18 riverbet i called was just about curiosity. I did not even expect to be good there 2% of the time. Could not wait for the video to come out i guess.
Anyways i have been improving a lot since this video(currently having a 100 buyin month at nl400(brag)) partly because of watching deucescracked video's. This will improve me even further. Love the series. Thanks again.
Bruut99, Sjing Sjong
that phone stuff at the end reminded me a little bit of TUFF_FISH
goddamm... fck... and so on
great session. This is why I was looking forward to you doing a series.

Very nice! I'm curious to know how many hands you are getting in a month? I assume it's all HU?

Bout 70-75k 75% 6max, 25% HU. HU is half of my profit though ![]()
Would love to see a video from you guys in real time. While there was a lot of good discussion in this one, I think a real time vid could help keep things more in tune with the current/previous theory vids.
@1:03 where you cbet/shove TT on 9
4
2
, 100 bb stacks, (it's a 3bet pot)
Do you play A
9
any differntly?
Your commentary was refreshingly inspiring. YOur thoughts on the A3 ch-c line on the A board made me realize just how much more there is to learn/ how little I really know. Brilliant. Well done.
For the love of god there is no reason to discuss that K9 hand for 10 minutes... everything about how the hand played out was incredibly standard early in the match.
hi,
i like the video, just have one little thing to add, if you are speaking of one hand, you should show that one because it would be easier to watch, and think about it as well. and just one question. how would you play the TT 3bet hand on the 9d4h2h board with 200,300bb deep? would you ever consider folding on that flop this deep?
man this series is very very good... entertaining and very refreshing commentary.
Best HU series that I ever seen for starting out. Good analysis in this part too, although I wished, U would have more concentrated on his actions on certain flops, what U wanted to do and making adjustments for future decisions. (For example: What would be your adjustments next time on that board where he had AT with an OE and a NFD?) I think, this would have been more in a line with the 3rd Vid.
Hey there. At 60 min I don't get it why we push TT there? He was folding 100% 3bets in 160 hands, I think more often he would have 99+ KJs+ and some SC here. I would prob fold
It's really funny when DIH starts cursing in the end of the video ![]()
Also I think you get stuck on certain fairly standard hands for too long.
Time Link to 00:25:51
At 25:40~ish, you call a raise with A3dd, c/c AsAhJh, c-c Tc, c-c 9s.
At 30~31 min you call a raise with Td8d, c/c a Ac3h5d board, c-c 6h, and lead the 9c river, citing the first hand for how you've established you can have an ace in your flop calling range... well, haven't you also established that you don't even bet it?
I mean, I doubt he's gonna call with J-hi, and he has a hard time repping anything if he wants to bluff, but the reasoning behind why you should play it like that seems flawed.
Around 50~min, we flat a raise with T9, AKJcc flop goes check check, Tx turn goes C-c, and we c/c a 3 river. This was right after we checked quads to him on the river.
Instead of c/c:ing, why not check/raise? Is the value of just seeing how he's playing his hand just bigger?
I like this series but agree that certain hands were talked about for way too long.
