question on the 78s hand: i'm struggling with this kind of boards and how to play them oop in 3bet pots. you said that he bluffraises very rarely because the board looks so scary. does this mean it hits your 3betting range a lot? how often do you think is he gonna bluff if you check? i'm thinking a lot about c/r in 3bet pots as the 3bettor but i didn't understand it completely. i think i might c/r here hands like draws and something like JT or A9. could get ugly if he calls a cbet. if i had to show down my A9 there i would c/r big hands later aswell.

and another one: on the 48J board whats your plan on the turn if the turn card doesnt hit his range, lets say a 2Diamond or even worse a 4Diamond shows up. how do you get the money in then? just call again and hope the river hits him or he just decides to bet a third time to get you off of an 8? what do we represent by c/r'ing turn?

I really don't like (or don't get) the 55 hand. It worked, because he had AK and hit his ace on the river, but against most of his range I would think betting the turn would be better. There are a lot of draws and Jx hands which you can credibly represent if you bet. Also, with all the draws out, aren't there a lot of cards that will kill your action on the river? You say he might be going for a check raise with a Jx hand, which seems like the ideal scenario to me. Why would you want to let an action killer come off on the river?

Sorry for the shot but how much does it change your game when your playing and doing deep comintary on big hands (when I autopilot H/U I don't win)

Basically, the most important thing to take away is that if you check/fold various boards after 3-betting, it's then profitable for your opponent to bet nearly 100% of his range when you check. Also, if you check/fold various boards and your opponent knows this, then a c-bet becomes much, much stronger.

Toss that around in your head and you should be able to construct scenarios in which it's correct to c-bet bluff or c/f, or c-bet your super strong hands or check and slowplay them. Start with thinking about what hands your opponent defends to your 3-bet, and what he thinks you are 3-betting with.

Because the board isn't great for a checkraise with a value hand, I weight his range away from that, and since he hasn't bet the turn, he's check/folding a vast majority of the time here. So I want to give him a chance to catch up and also make my hand look weaker than it is in order to potentially induce a river lead bluff or river c/r bluff. In addition, if he does happen to have a value hand, I can still stack him on the river regardless of what card comes.

I'm confused. I think you are asking if I was playing while I was making the video? I wasn't, would never be able to concentrate if I was, wouldn't even bother b/c it'd be a POS video anyhow.

I have had to start 1 or 2 tableing when playing HU to be able to keep my focus but it's done wonders for my winrate do you feel like you loose alot 4 tableing HU and is it alot tuffer playing 4 different opponents?

just wondering- u say no sane player would EVER bluff on the x8JJQ board when u had 88 (vs his K8). Does that mean if u were in his shoes u would F a hand like J7 or so? 9T?

mentioned in this video, as well as the last lime aid 3 was "4bet shoving hands that do well against 4bet calling ranges", like small/medium pocket pairs and suited aces.

dont a lot of people's 4bet calling ranges consist of high pocket pairs and AK/AQs?

or is this relative, compared to hands like 78, KJ, etc, because they can make sets and pairs of aces????
