i suppose it didnt feel standard because it's a total hero call right?
i 3bet this pre since i'm IP. as played if he gives up Txx flops to a bet you might as well bet with air AND made hands like you have. |

no level, this was exactly it. When I disabled adblock if appeared just fine. But, I really hate most internet adds and will just keep in mind that when I only see one card, the other is the Ad.

bspahn: well I guess what I'm trying to say it's a totally standard hero call because he usually has ace high or exactly AQ when he plays this way?
I checked behind because I would categorize this as a "B" range hand
I'd bet a T and a deuce
the reason I'd bet a deuce is because I wouldn't feel as comfortable making a hero call with a deuce here because if the board came low, he would vbet a 9
but I guess if I played A2s this way on the flop, I'd still consider calling down because the turn was a queen and he probably wouldn't vbet a 9 and just show it down |

You can also add an exception rule for the Ad and you'll be able to see it without disabling adblock. |

Its a relatively wet flop. I usually raise good hands here because a lot of cards either scare me or him, plus if he has something people love to put you on draws. You'd recommend just flatting though? |

idk, he's really only repping a queen and I thought his range for playing this way would be AJ-AK so AJ/AK = 32 combos, AQ = 12 combos
I think he doesn't check a T or JJ+ to me because the board is wet
and I think a flush draw is a standard cbet
on the turn the only hand that would vbet would be AQ because he wouldn't check KQ to me since he's going to cbet that part of his range on the flop
but a lot of one heart hands will semi-bluff especially if he has the king or ace of hearts (but he ended up only having the jack of hearts)
when the river comes he really can only have a queen for betting here and since any kind of QJ/KQ/QT hand bets the flop, I can only put him on AQ
I guess Q9 too, but I'm not sure he opens Q9o since I'm pretty aggressively 3bing bvb |

I just need to be good slightly less than 1/3 of the time, so he has to bluff his AJ/AK combos less than 20% of the time
if he bets the turn with one heart like this every time, that's 6 combos of AJ and 6 combos of AK
he'd have to bluff less than half of the time for me to lose money calling here
so obviously against regs that don't bluff the river a lot this is going to be EV-
I actually had a note on him that he checked AT back on the flop, called turn and called river beating my king high on like a 9 high board for a total hero call
Maybe I just wanted to get him back? LOL |

| i think more owns happen at lower stakes than at higher. thats because at higher stakes we usually have to respect our opponents ability to play in a reasonable manner even if they spew a lot in certain spots. the way to own people though is basically to hand read a lot better than than them. it isnt reallly an own when you take a silly incongruent line with garbage relative to what your opponent is representing, and then decide you are potstuck into calling off your stack because they might be semibluffing sometimes. |

this guy is like a TERRIBAD reg, not sure what my notes on him are (I already closed FTP), but he like spewed in some spots
I c/red the flop like three times when he did his gay minraise, cbet flop the first two times being as a bluff and the last time I could just tell by his timing (he thought for a while before folding) that he's going to play back at me
so when I hit a pair on the flop I'm like he's just going to fucking spew and shit if I check raise him AGAIN
given that I think turn might actually be a c/c
but holy shit I'm not folding to a raise because I have bd flush draw + and he could be spewing again

question on general professional ethics:
I was chillin at a table with a hudge maniacfish and I took about 2 stacks from him so far because I had the jesus seat
then I left all my other tables because my session was over, but I was just keeping that table open
is it ok to sit out after he does? well like it was his BB and when he didn't post I didn't post either
and it's not like the entire table sat out, the guy after me posted

Hand 1: should have included info about villain but I knew was going to call my 4b with whatever low suited connector he had and (probably) fold to a shove.
Hand 2: yeah maybe I just had a lot of trouble with what he wouldn't cb and would now raise the turn, the only thing I could come up with was 55 so I planned to c/r the river. Had 89o {acronym Renton hates} and owned me with his increidbly deceptive flop check |

you didn't have to tell me he had 98, I already knew when you posted the hh
if he had 55 you'd be laughing all the way to the bank |

You really think he floats an OOP 3bet of his UTG open with A high?
I honestly have no clue what he plays like this. No hand he has here should be played like this. |

write about when to turn your hand into a bluff
obviously when you think your fold equity is better than your showdown equity but it's hard to determine when that is the case |

Not sure if you've heard of the names/definitions before, I have them from improva's book (the poker puzzle). It more or less means elastic ranges are ranges that are related by the size of the bet and inelastic range are not. (i.e. the ranges we get called by)
It's not black and white in that any range is either elastic or inelastic, but it's usualy more or less elastic. In theory ranges should be very elastic, but in practice they aren't.
It also changes when stakes go up, but generally certain board textures come with a certain degree of (in)elastic ranges.
The elasticity of a range has great impact on our valuebetting and bluffing ranges and betsizing.
Imo it's and interesting subject, something not often talked/written about in a direct way. |

when we talk about "bet pot he'll call anyway" we're talking about inelasticity of his calling range (a lot of villains will call any bet up to pot in certain situations)
when we talk about the "head explosion" river bets we're talking about how we can size our value bets smaller when we expect that villain almost never has better so we're betting 1/4 pot to get called by third pair or ace high
so we talk about it implicitly, but not explicitly |
