Poker Video: Pot-Limit Omaha by michaelsc (Mid Stakes)

First

1. how much do middle rundown hands drop in value w/ cap? (it's a definite raise in position, but is it a snap call given your equity in a 3 handed 3bet pot...even w/ the cap?)

2. Doesn't your typical "betting top pair" or "bottom two pair' strategy on the flop (donk bet or cbet in m/w pots...even w/ a poss f/d on the board) make less sense w/ the cap since there is a much stronger chance that you will get c/r if villain has decent equity (gutshot + pair, top & bottom pair, f/d w/ overcards) given that everyone is playing "short" (e.g., m/w + cap = usually a c/r will get about 70% effective stack ai on flop)?

3. since you were oop w/ the loose giganto stack to your left on the right table, shouldn't you widen your pfr range to exploit his wide calling range otb? if so, what hands do you add to your raising range?

I like this 2 tabling is much easier to follow just think that cap sucks ass takes alot of the gambling away i reckon. PL plz after your next 1. One thing that suprises me is how straight foward and tight your play is to be right and winning, 1 hand you had a low openened 64 i think folded with 2 callers cause you didnt have the high draw. Id of called that all day long shows me where im going wrong i think.

No doubt you're playing a solid grindgame although your style is way too tight for my taste, at least in this video. Still learning a lot from your postflop play though, keep the good work up! Loving the series.

1. Middle rundown hands are still pretty strong, but sometimes you might want to 4 bet isolate them if you can get a lot of free money from other players. You can fold smaller and medium rundowns out of position and to a lot of strength at times, but they are still very premium hands.
2. You can still try to get away with betting a wide range on the flop in 2-3 handed pots and shy away from it a little bit more in general.
3. You can definitely add more to your range against a super aggressive player. You can play any rundown type of hand, but still folding medium pairs and small pair hands.

Appreciate all your videos, even this one is interesting as it shows that you do not always get good cards/boards. Then you have to try to minimize your losses, which is as important as maximizing the wins. I think you showed quite good patience which is a key.
