    You guys make a great double act. The first two episodes somehow manage to be both totally hilarious and packed full of high quality strategy discussion at the same time. Can’t wait to see the rest, BD at his very best. 10/10

    One question Casey,

    The 55 hand where u flat the fishy guy that opened huge from EP. How is that good? I dont get it sorry, also the float on flop – it’s obv guy has primiuem there.. do u want to get him to fold QQ/JJ??

    Hey Alex. I have 200k at the start of that hand and the BB is 3k so I have over 70 bbs. I think its defenetly fine to be flatting there. And if you flop a set you can stack your opponent. I looked at the hand numerous times and I thinks its fine esp considering i have the bigdog’s

    Hey Casey,do u call a 3.5x raise there because its pk5s and your the bigdog? Didnt think it would be correct there with a 32 bb effective stack, and two or three shove stacks behind.

    I notice a lot of people complaining about the strict math behind setmining/flatting with small or medium pairs. There’s a lot more to it.

    You want to play pots with fish, especially in position.

    Your implied odds are good when you flop a set against a fish. You’re much more likely to stack them.

    Even if you make a thin play math-wise and miss, you know you’ll have spots to regain the chips later at a table like this one.

    That’s just a couple things that pop into my head. I’m sure there’s a lot more.

    I understand your point and think it’s fine to make that play but in this situation it’s not the only thing to consider. There are several players left to act and they all have perfect stack sizes to shove.

    thewattsy is actually a UK live poker pro with $117k live winnings and 2 WSOP final tables lol.

    But he does some terribly absurd things here for some reason!

    Just shows that online and live can be so different.

    Hey Bigdog, at 39.53 you min raise a8os co, into 3 10-18bb stacks. Is it not better to jam here also. I understand your thought process behind open shoving the aq, i was just wondering why you ship the better hand of the two and min raise the other.

    I don’t agree with the KT hand and I think u guys are way too results-oriented. You have no read, history or stats for villain, he raised UTG and 3bet your flop c/r. 95% of the time you are toast here and maaaaybe drawing to 3 kings if he shows up with TT-QQ. He just happens to have the 5% where he folds and you look like genius.

    Would be interesting to see how the commentary would have changed if villain shoved on you.

    35:30 – dont see the point of potsize cbetting a8 on ak4ss in the 3way pot with one villain having pot behind to make the other villain (who has twice pot left) know your commited. why would you sort of telegraph your hand there?!

  19. earthwormjim

    actually the aqs shove utg vs all of those 20bb and lesser stacks 100% looks like lost value to me… how is there no value in those stacks reshoving worse hands in to your open??!

    Hi, BigDog. At the 23 min sergei69 got in a big pot against Sm4rtass and he bets really small on the turn with the nuts, and then he bets really small against you when you had the AQ suited and again he has the nuts. So we can coclude with this two sample hands that this guy bets small when he has the nuts, and probably bets big when he has a bluff. Did you notice this, and that´s why you call that 30000 bet with the KK or it was just a intuition good call ?
