Do you agree that the bet/3bet (non all-in) was a mistake? Smaller draws could call flop, then potentially fold turn to a jam with only one card to come so there's value lost vs. smaller draws and we don't get max fold equity vs. bigger draws.
Always depends who you’re up against but I thought the 3 bet sizing was funky. I like call or jam. FYI if opponent has A3 of spades you’re like a 2:1 dog and if he has KQ of spades it’s worse. KQs should’ve raised pre but this blind structure might yield surprising results 🤷♂️. Either way, I’d likely call the 105 or jam. More I think of it, I like jam. I’m not worried about losing value from smaller draws like 7,6 of spades cause that might call the jam a percentage of the time which would be great.
@KenDavis-uo8kq Yeah, every bigger fd is like 63%+. I also agree with your assessment about V possibly not 3betting as many hands with the straddle. It's just how much fold equity is hero getting?
@@GizziiusaI think he misspoke or got confused - there is a lot to follow. He seemed to know what he was doing. You can of course never fold flop to that amount when in the absolute worst case scenario (against an A high flush draw), you still have 36% equity, and against a set you have 40% equity.
@@evadecaptcha Good take. Bart is a very high level thinker and he's dissecting your every move and trying to not sound like a fool when talking with him can't be easy.
As others have said, just jam the flop. This kind of combo draw, you need to get it all in, or have them fold. Otherwise, foe will fold out if possible when you obviously hit. Your hand plays exactly as it is, Js9s, or 44. So, if a Q or 7 comes, foe will likely fold, and that money would be in the pot had you jammed. T8 is unlikely to fold to your Flop jam. Plus, it helps up your aggression for other hands, which makes EV+ plays easier. Here is a simple rule, if foe either folds or calls an all in, and you are happy, you want to go all in. There are not many hands where this is the case, so learning to recognize them increases your long term gains. If your jam is called by T8, your are happy, even if called by 44 you are in good shape, and with dead money in the pot, is still EV+, if foe folded, you are happy. Foe literally can't play this hand perfectly, as you are happy with any action foe takes. Part of poker is forcing players into mistakes, and foe is making a mistake, in the sense of not playing optimally, when you jam Flop. There is no good choice for foe, no matter what hands he has. Even 44, has to be thinking you could have 88.
Hero sounds like he was seeing monsters under the bed from past bad beats. His commentary sounded like he was looking for every reason to not ship it in or even find a fold. Glad it worked out for him
@@justme-ti1rh lol like security is really going to stop anything. Plus, like Bart talked about in previous episodes, easy to get followed away and robbed off the property
I took a train to/from Emeryville once. Arrived at night and walked to a local hotel through the sketchiest elevator and walkway I've ever seen. Even the Amtrak conductor warned me to watch out for junkies.
Interesting equity ranges. On a Ts 8c 4s flop, J9ss is huge 63-37% dog to A5ss, while J9ss is a huge 63-37% fav over 87ss. I think ATo with the As was a viable hand to not raise preflop but raise flop in position. Not sure ATo stacks off the turn K but was getting a big price.
Villain had either T8 or 44. Possibly 88, but I think he jams that on the flop pretty often and raises pre on the button with some frequency as well. The reasons why it's never really TT is the same as for 88 but magnified.
Hero's in worse shape against AXs than 44, it's like 63%. Even Ks7s is 65%. His 3bet sizing is terrible, it incentivizes bad hands with decent equity to call. The flop is a call or jam.
Bart spends 10 minutes explaining how this hand has huge equity against any holding opponent can have. Guy: “If he has 44s or 88s and jams over my $400 raise, I can still fold…” Bart: “what? You would fold? You can’t fold!” Guy: “no, right I can’t fold against those hands.” 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️ Well, the good news is that most people we play against at these stakes (even some CLP subscribers like this guy!) are pretty bad at hand reading.😁👍
Depends on player. Against an aggressive capable opponent I’m probably 4 betting all in on flop. Against a complete nit who doesn’t over value big pairs I might actually fold flop but that’s a special case, board is too wet, I’m probably jamming
@@cial67 it’s a curious one cause then what’d he call off with? Maybe he was waiting for a safe turn card? It’s a weird one. T,8 no spade on the flop is exactly 50% against the heroes hand. Not saying that was in anyone’s thought process just interesting factoid.
This feels like it should’ve been set up as a check raise to avoid it checking through on the turn when you hit your draw. As played, it should’ve been a call or shove on the flop.
When I am comitted to go broke I am never 3-betting the flop in this spot. With a call I might invite the 3rd player and therefore I can win more money.
And you probably don’t win as much because of this. When the obvious draws come in that makes your hand, it usually kills the action. So instead of playing for stacks you got an extra $40 flop call. Whoopie
Had to pause vid 8 minutes in but I would figure on just calling button's flop raise with guy HJ still to act because you want him to call so you'll win more if you hit your draw and button probably ain't folding.
This guy said he didn't want to check because if it checks around he loses value. What the heck is he talking about? He may have good EQUITY here after the flop, but he doesn't have ANY value. There's almost no chance he has the best hand at this point. You bet for 2 reasons: to get worse to call or better to fold. He might miss a chance to build up the pot, but that's not the same as losing value. If he fails to make his draw he's lost nothing by checking.
Always consider a person that is subscribed to an online poker training site an above average poker player. Callers logic is irrational. Live poker is great!
Yes, getting 1k into a 50$ pot with a hand that’s a 2-1 dog or worse is always the correct play. Keep going. Great advice. Great logic. Never stop. There’s always a seat open for you
There's a segment of players who have internalized not having Any donks...like evér..? I personally think such an approach is silly in live games, but it's their money..?
For sure, but a big part of low stakes exploits involve playing unbalanced for value. A good player would 100% exploit the donk range by overfolding, but people at these stakes don't pay attention and usually you're playing opponents who you've never met before
@patrickjordan2233 Yeah, if you're playing tough competition I bet simplifying your strategy to only x or x/r oop multiway doesn't lose much EV, but against bad or random opponents it just leaves so much value on the table. In theory, facing a donk multiway you can fold just about everything and 3bet the rest, but nobody plays that way live.
@@patrickjordan2233for good reason. It’s quite hard to balance having a donking range and a check-raising range. If you’re going to donk, you have to split your best hands between donking and checking. Otherwise if you always donk your best hands opponent can just destroy your checking range. That being said, if you’re playing against total fish who aren’t paying any attention to what you do then it’s fine.
This was a bad beat. So, the point was how NOT to play, I assume? After V called reraise flop bet, it's obvious he goes nowhere, so jamming turn was a poor move.
Im sorry, but im not buying this hand one bit, and this is the problem with call-ins. People making stuff up to get on. Bart, you've been playing long enough. If this player type has this specific hand and flops a 15 out combo draw and says he is going to fold to a flop shove, there is NO way this player type shoves turn on a semi bluff lmao. This player type always takes their equity and checks back. Guy says hes going to fold to a flop jam but were supposed to believe he stuffed 650 into 950 with 1 card to come on a semi bluff😂😂😂.

Your math is way off when it comes to the different hand combos and equities.

I think V raises a suited ace pre?
What hands would V limp then raise flop? 8s7s? I think he Raises pre with TT & 88. I'd rip it all in.
Not sure about other Northern California casinos, but thankfully the Graton is removing the $1 button blind as of February 1st.
I think the flop jam is the obvious play. On a side note I think you can certainly raise it pre flop here with J9ss.
I hate that. Call > raise> fold
If your the villian with 10-8 do you shove or just call or fold on the turn jamb
