Same bro. I definitely struggle when I’m in one of those awkward stack sizes around the bubble, like 10-20bb range. And especially if there’s big stacks to my left who are aggro and 3 and 4bet a lot.
Same. Had a tourny today where i was chip leader at the start but then around the bubble stacks got shorter, i think i tightend too much cuz i was scared the short stacks will jam on me. I didnt wanna open marginal hands and played too passivly. Blinded out from 30 to 12bb . shoved it with TT vs QJ and lost a flip. I would rather never put myself in that position where i have to shove but there is much more for me to learn and improve.
instead of viewing ur hands within their context of where u are in the tournament, just view them in a vacuum and try and make the best play with that hand
Thanks Ben and RYE, I was one of many who asked for this, I like the format of explaining the concept first and then giving out simple tips to implement into my game.
This is a great video! It’s really nice to watch a video of yours that I wouldn’t get alcohol poisoning for taking a shot everytime you say “recreational player” or “against a rec”
It's so crazy how much content is always in one of your videos. It takes so much finesse and work. But that's exactly why you're producing the best content out there. For me, a 25min. Video more like a 2 hours video with all the other things (vocabulary, defining, repeating, writing down, ...) Thanks for all your valuable content Ben ☺♥
wow, you heard us! That's very nice of you and your team! Ty Ben for the tips. Awesome content, as usual. I'm gonna have to see this video a couple times in order to fix the equity realization concept in my mind for good lol...
noooow next one from the small blind first in. What to limp, what to open raise, what to fold, what to limp/3-bet, what to limp/call or lim/fold and so on with different stack sizeees, pleaaaase!
0:56 deep in the video. Like button smashed, here's my comment. Love this format and would love some help with in position (bu-co-hj) play with a short stack against an open raise. (like 15-30 bigs area). Thank you for educating the community Bencb! Wish you lots of luck in all your runs, really appreciate this content :D :D :D :D
After seen the video. Knew it was going to be good! Worth every second. Thanks Ben! Agree with the statements. Kindoff surprised we do so little jamming on BB vs UTG at 30bigs. I thought we were crazy and mixed both Axs, some Higher suited broadways and even jamming stuff down to A8o. Not all the time but probably 50% or more. I for sure have played this spot way too aggressive.. I even jam those lower-middle pairs. Guess I have to tighten up a bit and call more, raise less! Raise your edge, not raise your stack away :D
How to play short stacked (20bb) 4 handed. How wide should we call shoves, how tight should we be opening, should we just be going all in with certain hands. Calling ranges from bb. Is there a 3 bet none all in strategy out of position?
Hi Bencb, Great content. I struggle at the moment playing from the big blind with 8 - 12 bb. Am I supposed to call an open-raise (2x vs. 3x) or should I stick to a fold-shove strategy? In case I am supposed to call, should I check-jam every pair (including lowest pair) and every draw (incl. gut-shot straight draw)? Am I ever just calling the c'bet on the flop? Recently I was in the big-blind with 7d-6d with 11bb on the final table of low-stakes MTT and the button opened with 3x - I decided to call and "hit" a Gutshot on a Kh-8s-4s board and was quite unsure what to do against a 20% c'bet from the PFA - ended up calling his c'bet. Appreciate if you could let me know your thoughts for this exact situation. Thanks for taking the time.
Hi Ben! Subscribed to your channel about 2 months ago, so far huge fan of your content! Can I ask you a question related to the equiy realization concept? What is the correct way to model your opponents fold likelyhood to your bet. If you do only a fold frequency calculations it has a big problem, it does not take his equity into consideration. Again, if you make it equal to your estimation of his equity (1-your equity) then it becomes indifferent to his equity realisation. If you take his HUD numbers it is like a huge black box that shows aggregarted data and does not allow you to analize why he would fold this often. Would be very glad to recieve some tips of thoughts on this question.
Glad you are liking it Shamar, we would like to invite you to our Discord channel where our coaches are looking forward to answer your question: discord.com/invite/ry2Gkc5
Not to forget, all this is a general quide... All these numbers and % only right, if we think our opponent has the "perfect" opening range. For example - once you face a 2.3x open from the CO, who has 11/8/2 stats over 200 hands with high % barreling freq..., u wont have the same equity postflop, as Ben mentioned in Video. Since the opening range much tighter there and you will face double barrels much more often from a much tighter range, I'd drop the lower bottom of my defending range there and fold pre. This wont hurt me, since this tight guy will also fold much more often and not go for a steal
Indeed Pavel, it's important not too look too much into the numbers and think more about the why and try to understand the concept, so you can apply it in other situations vs different opponents as well and make the adjustments necessary!
Ben, I love when you say something like " and if all else fails, we can still win the hand ".. lol.. you strike me as someone who has fenced before - very technical 🤺🎰🐶💎💎💎💎💎
I like this type of content. Picking a specific part of the tree. I would love to see something similar about overbetting and blockbetting. Especially overbetting. Sometimes I feel like I would get paid more by betting pot instead of an overbet. And get more folds with my bluffs if I overbet (eploitative). I have no evidence of this though.
Hi Bencb, thanks so much for the great video. Just a quick question for you or anyone that has an answer in the comments - Is there a reliable way to work out equity realisation yourself?
Thank you Robbie, unfortunately there are way too many scenarios and factors to consider. So all you can do is keep in mind things that impact equity realization, such as the opponent you play against, the stacksizes and your hand. Suited hands and connected hands will always have a better equity realization
First off let me just say you provide emmense value for free and i kinda feel greedy asking for this but can you please make a video about preflop flatting ranges and how to take full advantage of position again thank you so much for these videos
Amazing content! Thank you! I have a question. What is recomended EV on 20k hands per month on filters for 60bb? What is your advice how to make this EV growing playing 20$ ABI?
Here is our guideline: -5bb - 0bb = loosing player => move down ASAP 0bb - 2bb = playing too high, late game & ICM Mistakes make you a loosing player 2bb - 5bb = slightly winning player, roi is still low and variance can be brutal 5bb - 7bb = good win rate, you should be one of the better regs in the games you're playing, still take care of Late Game & ICM, if your ROI is not as good as expected. 7bb - 10bb = Crusher of your Stakes! Place to be! 10bb+ = probably playing too low. Move up Nit!
Isn’t equity realization impacted by range composition? For example, when you had AA etc. in the flatting ranges, it’s really making your weaker flats appear to realize more equity than they actually do.
The equity realization is being calculated by solvers, where indeed ranges impact things because if we have a stronger range, villain can bet less and we will see more turns and rivers.
Kjs performs better as call. Both are profitable jams, KTs is a little bit better as a call than jaming. KJs is better as call since we dominated more of his opening range. Kjs is still a good rejam too but again performs a little bit better as a call. Also with KT we fold out a few more better hands than KJ.
Have I misunderstood or did you make a misclick. It seemed to me you explained that we defend wider vs a 2.3x than we do vs a min. Surely the light green is defend vs a min and darker green defend vs a 2.3?
The two keys are the Villain's river range and your blockers to the nuts ( or blocking V's value bet range) If the villain doesn't have hands to fold vs your river bet he's gonna call you every time
Hey Ben, I see that sometimes on your videos you have headphones on your head. I'm wondering, if you are listenig music while recording or there is no sound and it helps you to focus, just a habit?
I love your videos and it absolutely amazong content! I feel embarresed that I still dont get what equity and equitisation exactly is. Nothing wrong with your videos at all, im just too slow and dim witted. GG Bencb
When your in big blind and it’s folded around to small blind I always think small blind is stealing from me and lost a lot of chips thinking this way 😩
Paul Jones BBvsSB is not easy to play and it takes lots of time and study so dont worry and work on it. The number 1 tip is actually wacth the player on your left and evolve your ranges based on how he plays
When you waking up and seeing recommendation of new bencb video - you know your day gonna be positive :)
