  1. Merfinis

    Hi, thanks for your question.
    My plan here is to 3bet/call original raiser based on his tendencies 88 is def will be good, however there are 6 players behind, so I’m basically trying to avoid getting a cooler if someone wakes up behind me.
    So 3bet/calling original raiser, but if some nitty opponent behind me 4bet’s/shoves I’m going to make a nitty fold based on there tendencies.

    @0723 vs the sicko. When the turn completes the FD, instead of double barrelling, whats you thought on ck/calling? we might be able to get two streets from his bluff hands, which he will possible fold. I’m thinking by checking we keep the air portion of his range in play as opposed to folding it? If you think this is bad ca you say why?

    What do you put his get to turn range at?

    thx

    I like the idea of every hand with your commentary on their suspected range then changes we make to our game when we see unexpected hands. Could be really interesting 🙂

    Your English is fine and very clear. Don’t worry about it :).

    I really like your discussion on the TT hand with what we do with AJ. vs this opponent, when he doesn’t triple barrel AK, do you think he would with QJ aka would you make a call vs the third barrel with AJ? thx

    Hey thanks for your comment, the thing is that those ‘bluffy cards’ when I’m checking back get’s to realize there equity for free and I don’t want give him this opportunity. I agree that with this hand we can expect two streets of value and because the opponent is so spewy I expect that we do get second street of value on the Turn, he still has tons of Ax’s, some pocket pairs and possible Kdx’s hands that are calling.
    So this isn’t necessary bad if you decide to checkback the turn, but I like betting better.

    Also, please tell me the time mark on the TT hand, I can’t remember the hand 🙂

    Last hand with 88. Are you ITM?
    What range would you expect a tight player in UTG to shove in that spot?
    How does your 88 play against that range and is it worth taking a flip? You allso have some players behind you that could hurt your stack.

  7. Merfinis

    Hey, tight UTG Range shove here should be : 33-44+ / A9s+ JTs+
    We are doing really well against his shoving range here :
    MP2 51.18% 50.65% 0.53% { 8h8s }
    MP3 48.82% 48.29% 0.53% { 33+, A9s+, KTs+, QTs+, JTs, ATo+, KQo }

    Definitely worth isolating, yes there are players behind, but they are not that deep and waking up for them to call off my shove is somewhat rare scenario, as their calling of range is about 4.5-5% only.
