Hey buddy i have PM\'d you

Jon-PokerVIP•on 26/5/14

Yes i see what you mean. I said these generally don\'t work. I said very nice as it worked but overall we should cbet or check fold. Check raising is very unbelievable generally imo

Nice summing up there buddy! Like the bet sizes and i think they work well in these games.

Hand converted by PokerTracker 4: http://www.pokertracker.com

CO: 121.8 BB (VPIP: 21.43, PFR: 16.67, 3Bet Preflop: 8.43, Hands: 214)
BTN: 119.8 BB (VPIP: 30.25, PFR: 16.81, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 120)
Hero (SB): 103.5 BB
BB: 79.8 BB (VPIP: 62.35, PFR: 40.00, 3Bet Preflop: 4.76, Hands: 180)
UTG: 28.9 BB (VPIP: 55.88, PFR: 2.94, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 34)
MP: 274 BB (VPIP: 27.00, PFR: 24.18, 3Bet Preflop: 6.21, Hands: 440)

Hero posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has Ks 9s
UTG calls 1 BB, fold, CO raises to 4 BB, fold, Hero calls 3.5 BB, BB calls 3 BB, fold

Flop : (13 BB, 3 players) Th 6c As
Hero checks, BB bets 6.2 BB, fold, Hero raises to 16 BB, fold

Hero wins 24.2 BB




preflop villan 1 (cuttoff) attempts to Isolates the fish with reggy stats so his range is pretty wide so i decided to just flat. BB makes up who is a massive fish imo.

I only check raise this flop as the cutoff folds and the flop does not hit most of the BB range and by making a raise im repping an Ace obviously wanting the bb to fold. I also take note i have several back doors to carry on a semi bluff if he calls. If he does call im putting the bb on a weak ace/2nd pair hand.

If the cuttoff calls the BB donk i fold.

15:36 On the bottom left table I think is an interesting hand to talk about. Pre, I\'m assuming we opened and got 3bet then called? If so I\'m not sure I love it, we\'re playing an easily dominated hand OOP but I guess if the action dictated that we got a great price then its a call. However imo the check raise is bad on the flop, I think a lot of the hands he 3bets pre contain an ace therefore its not going to get through much of the time right? On top of this, if he calls would we be barreling or shutting down? I like the idea of a check raise a lot more if the flop came something like J63 as it hits his range such a small amount of the time and we can take it down very often. Id love to get thoughts on this from Wellie and John as Id love some reasoning behind why it might be a good play, maybe you could change my mind?

Anyway, great video as always John! Keep up the good work

Thanks Jon!
I think the bet sizing pre i debatable and the strat group could probably debate it for days. But personally in an unopened pot i\'m 3xing from UTG and UTG/Highjack and 2.5 from the cuttoff and button.

The reason i\'m 2.5xing from the cuttoff is, i\'m assuming the button is going to 3bet us sometimes and when they do it\'s going to be smaller due to a smaller open. If however i know the button is only going to 3bet me with a nutted range a will 3x it against them with my full range and fold when they do 3 bet me. There\'s also a debate when i do 2.5x it the button calls and the binds are priced in with any two. But others are free to comment on this.

2.5x from the button is what i prefer, people like mining the button but most of the time i\'m stealing from the button and want more folds than calls but when they do call i take at bigger pot down post most of the time anyway.

Clicking small to big i feel is best. You get just as many folds as 2.5x and 3x. After awhile regs will notice you do it with your full range and you can get into some BVB wars so you can give regs your small blind a couple of times because we are taking their big most of the time anyway.


Overall Jon it was a good video and i\'d advise other people to get a leak finder done. Wish i made my a little bit longer for more spots.
Thanks, Nay (Wellie3)
