Mate, Ive been watvhing poker vids for years, all the top channels, Ive watchecd all yours and they are some of the most entertaining Ive seen not just recently but all time, your hand selection is truely great, and your so in the mix, we all here for it, keep it up, your gonna have 100k subs next year, both you and the Weazel are killing it, best mate
Yeahhhhh another episode ! For last hand I would have played the hand exactly the same way and cross my fingers thinking that I was losing it anyway 😂 About the hand VS iambluff Infind it annoying because while you were explaining the range that they are supposed to check OTT (like 2p for exemple) I was wondering if they would fold those OTR once they block bet it and call your raise turn. Reason being is that this node is rare (cbet, xr, bet, raise…) meaning that reaction of villain is hard to anticipate. I would assume in my game that the meta is gonna influence the reaction of villain a lot. If they see us as a super bluffer they would call even 2pairs OTR but if they think you are not they would fold all their bluffcatchers. It’s like the QTo hand that you shared. You said it is a mix but you would call this all the time vs this player. In the end my question is more : do we have finally a good bluff here in terms of do we think that opponent fold enough or more of their bluffcatcher. Once we have assured that combos, line and sizes AND frequency we could always take our bluffs. But if villain calls too much then it is a suicide. What do you think about that and iambluff ?
yeah you make many good point and ultimately my answer is: i don't know. if they stop folding 2p and sets then my line is legit the worst of all time, but if close to all of them do fold then we prob print big time. wish i had a more solid answer for you mate hahaha
Thoughts on just going at least B70 OTF with the 99 vs the two recs? obv will be extremely unbalanced and perhaps even the whales will start folding some hands we crush vs the bigger size? I'm keen on setting up a turn jam in this spot
yo mate. it isn't 2 recs, MP is a reg. if we were playing 3 recs then yeah would be totally keen on bombing the flop to rush as much money in as possible
The 33 hand was really interesting. I think its important to note that you shouldnt have too many raises in the first place. But I agree that pop likely overcalls turn and thus overfold otr (as long as you also believe they fold everything apart flushes otr). Personally, I think calling turn to bluff vs check or block is better since people are bad at defending those ranges (at least at midstakes) Keep up the theory/exploit deep dive. Loved it!
awesome thanks mate. maybe it's a projection from me, but don't you think people will get stickier vs the call vs turn bet then river shove from ip? i kinda feel like a lot of regs convince themselves that ip could be overly spicing around. whereas with the ip turn raise into river shove, while we filter oop range a lot more and therefore we 'target' a narrower range, it feels more credible that ip has good hands and fewer bluffs? i guess that makes sense though as narrow range spot = less bluffs allowed and wider range spot = more bluffs around. i'm not sure where i'm going with this other than to demonstrate the dilemma!
@@BenaBadBeatPoker fair point. You def rep waaay stronger after raising turn instead of just calling. Tbh i mainly look at the calling threshold in those decisions but maybe thinking about which line looks scarier from your opp pov might be better. Sth ill keep in mind
Hey Ben, absolutely loving this series and wish u the best of luck on the grind! I was curious about the turn raise in the 33 hand so i ran the spot on wizard, and no matter how much i played around with node locking OOP to XR and bet more two pair and sets than wizard wants to, IP only ever raised very infrequently to a very small size. Giving wizard 70% raise as it’s only size on the turn always resulted in there being no raises. I’m curious about the rationale behind raising the turn in a spot where we don’t have any advantage and V can have all the strongest hands. Would love to hear your thoughts on this :)
hello mate - thanks for the post and glad you're enjoying the content. that's very interesting to hear and as i said in the vid i didn't look at the sim before making this vid so could well have been off. i was discussing based on my understanding of sims from similar Ahi wheel fd boards where flush complete ott. tbh i'm very surprised to hear wizard doesn't have raises here but i've come to realise that wizard isn't always super reliable with some outputs. I have now looked at the sim in PIO and run with exact schemes used in the hand (which were b33/r50%/c -> b33/r70/c -> x/bAI/c and in my sim there are 5% turn raises with range. that is quite low, but still reasonable. the raises are coming from 33/22/flushes. and fwiw this is without nodelocking for them range betting turn which i'd imagine further increases ip raising freq. regardless of what the sim says, i still think exploitatively the turn/river line from me is really good!
Pretty good call with the AQdd hand and good on you for identifying it’s a mix there! The way I do it is i keep it simple and instead of mixing some calls with AKdd, AQdd or hh, is i fold AQ pure and call pure with AK, since we’re supposed to have those 150bb deep. Is it wrong/exploitable to simplify like this?
@@BenaBadBeatPoker ty for answering, was wondering if that was a leak of mine! And yeah I do call pure here as well vs good/stronger regs and fold the other AQo that may also be a tiny bit freq calls. Seems like a better way to do it to simplify :)
i really don't like the lifestyle of MTT's - being stuck for hours and the poor sleep schedule etc. although there is definitely a lot more money in MTT's
yeah definitely a factor but always gunna be the case in these raise nodes that you block and unblock portions of your opponents range that you do or don't want haha
Last hand I think I would call given player background. I’ve seen this type of line many times from fish, it seems similar to an exploit that Salo discussed in one his vids. They’d have to find AK to check raise primarily which we block. Also block spades. The small raise given the dynamics screams like they are trying to respond to the small flop bet and they’ll just end up with so many random hands given their VPIP that I think we can’t fold.
AQs 4b hand - I agree that theory might prefer the larger turn size, but when he uses b25, it forces you to continue with almost all your AJs/ATs and even some KJhh type hands. If you change it to b40ish, you can start comfortably folding those. Depends what strat you are more comfortable with, very little ev difference between them. Standard hand from both of you in solver land, but I like his shove less if you've folded more KJ/KQ/AT no draw hands on turn. Played some 500 on coin with you yday, thought games were good until we get you and Charlie in 500 streets!
yeah agree that the EV loss will be minimal. fwiw i wouldn't call the turn with any of the KQ/KJ combos i don't think - i just don't see that being great vs pop. ah let me know who you are next time mate!
AQ bluffcatch was really nice. I sometimes gets scared in situations like this when an opponent does not bet the river because suddenly I can't beat the check range since it's more mergy. Then I panic bluff myself and it's a disaster. KK hand was a super easy calldown imo and you played it perfectly against a recreational playing you back. Once you 5-bet here against this type NL hold em is no longer post-flop game. Put on your calling pants because you're calling down any board. AQ on 678? Yeah, call it off.
@@canihasfreeusername thanks for your feedback mate! haha but yea he gotta not bluff if they check on the river to you. agree with all your thoughts on the KK hand. although I do think checking back flop is probs the way to go overall. haha yeah just closing my eyes and clicking that call button
@@BenaBadBeatPoker Thanks for the reply. I thought this KK hand a bit and I got to say that I disagree checking back. You got KK with fd blocker blocking AK as well. Against 20 % range you're way ahead. If you check back your opponent might hit a pair and shut down which would be a disaster. By betting small you pretty much reactivate the whole range. Even the worst players know that they can not call here with something like JT so they're left with two options, folding or raising. Given villain's pre game and the fact that you've been 3-betting them regularly I don't think they're in the folding mood. So essentially you're inducing with good/medium hand to get max value which is often a great play. We're obviously in pure exploit land.
17:59 sorry for so many comments ben, but your content and articulation of spots makes me want to expand on my thoughts of the hand and ask you if my line of thinking or logic makes sense. In this hand say if you had TcTs exactly and after you call the turn they check to you, would you ever Jam to try to get JJ and QQ to fold which would obviously be a big oart of their range from preflop action that beats you. Reason being you block both sets of T9s with this exact combo, which you definitely have 4 betting IP in this exact spot?
definitely a possibility but generally i er on the side of taking showdown vs these very erratic players. they will just be so likely to have a bunch of air and also they won't necessarily fold when we do shove if they have like a random Ax. i would be 4betting those ip yeah although im a LOT more inclined to just shove pre given how likely the small 4b size was weak
I think mister saulo costa would have told you in this KK hand that you can very very happily call the flop raise after betting 10%, call turn and call river and print money, in fact it's probably better to face a raise than a call there after betting 10% this line is usually for 3bet pots but I think this applies here given description of villain (small flop raise, bet turn, jam river)
Ben quick question i am a very intuitive player but haven't been In the streets for few years now and there is one thing thats gone out of my mind, like when you forget how to spell a four letter word like a mental block, question is -On river for example In a spot where you have very few bluffs, you bet small right? Then in a spot maybe on river where its a wet board. Oop checks to you and you are over bluffing if anything, you bet very big here as you need more fold equity? Is that correct? But obviously bakance that on the wet board and hit huge on river yoh also over bet etc? Is that correct or am i missing something big here?
KK hand I def like check back bc of the reasons stated, but betting really small seems fine also. after the small bet i think all the other decisions were on point. on the river you are going to lose a lot but that's fine, seems super likely a villain like this has enough spews. would not stun me if he showed JJ or something for a weird merge. great vid as always!
did u have reason for not sizing up 3bet preflop with KK vs "massive recreational"? like a small 3b will induce 4bet spazzes more like what happened here? thanks, fan of the content.
@18:43 I literally played an almost IDENTICAL hand live 300bb deep at 3/5. Only differences were that I had AKo calling the 4b and the 4b was closer to 3x, and instead of 99 on the flop, it was 88, and river was a 4 instead of a 5, making A5 a straight. Same positions, etc. I called al 3 streets with AK high, and villain showed up with AQo.
All them comments i make i pause the video at that spot and then comment by the way, but at the end you said "how did i play, tell me in the comments" Thought you played great mate and as usual you SIM BRAIN and articulation of your play was spot on, WTG ben mate take care pal
For the KK hand at the end: Postflop I would do the same, feel like I messed up the hand at the river but for that amount I'm calling. After seeing the JT I'd feel like a genius :D. Preflop: i don't have 5-bet in my arsenal :P
Could you perhaps explain the rakeback on CoinPoker? Due to them taking 50% of a rake pott and then the rest of CHP, which you get 35% rakeback on. Isnt that half of 35 then or am i an Idiot. And also how much of Coinpoker roll would you recommend keeping as CHP? Cheerio
you will get paid out at the end of each week in CHP - it won't be half the 33% as you suggested. I am able to play a full week with around 3000 CHP which is roughly $150 so depending on the stakes you play it may vary. just keep an eye on your CHP balance to make sure you always have some available when you're playing
cus its a pretty dicey card where i don't feel our hand is strong enough to bet call. that doesn't mean i shouldn't bet but generally like to check a hand that isn't worth 3 streets on a LOT of rivers vs splashy opponents
i just don't expect a rec to fold so wanna bloat the pot. also an Ace will come like 22% of the time which kills action when they have other pocket pairs. if i had AA i'd be more likely to do that vs some players though
11:30 33 hand, if this IS Charlie, I'd for sure give up river I think, because he notoriously feigns weakness with his timing on the turn by acting super quick with a hand that is never folding. So I'd never expect to see two pair or sets for this specific timing vs your turn raise from Charlie.
definitely an option but this really is a truly terrible turn card for us. on soooo many rivers our hand wont be worth three streets either. fwiw i don't think what i did is necessarily better or worse than turn bet though
15:00 the KTo turn jam is so bad, His blockers are terrible, he only blocks hands you do not have! In his little mind he might be thinking he is blocking KJ and JT which you dont call 4 bets with, as like you say even AJ suited is fringe. Also he blocks TT which oh fold turn with and you have here a lot! 😂😂
The KK hand should’ve been a snap if u had the read that he was spewing preflop. Im suprised u didn’t mention that again in your thought process for calling the river. That should’ve been the number one point of emphasis. That changes the ranges completely and the filtering logic doesn’t apply vs these whales’ atc ranges 🤣

hahah yeah i wasn't loving my life to say the least. definitely develop 5 bets especially vs rec's mate!
2:08 You dont have to body shame your opponent mate!
:DDDD
Could you perhaps explain the rakeback on CoinPoker? Due to them taking 50% of a rake pott and then the rest of CHP, which you get 35% rakeback on. Isnt that half of 35 then or am i an Idiot. And also how much of Coinpoker roll would you recommend keeping as CHP?
Cheerio
you will get paid out at the end of each week in CHP - it won't be half the 33% as you suggested. I am able to play a full week with around 3000 CHP which is roughly $150 so depending on the stakes you play it may vary. just keep an eye on your CHP balance to make sure you always have some available when you're playing
@@BenaBadBeatPoker Alright, Thanks!
Some cracking show downs
truly juiced ones
if opp so-so stationly, why do we check turn weak value? 4:25
cus its a pretty dicey card where i don't feel our hand is strong enough to bet call. that doesn't mean i shouldn't bet but generally like to check a hand that isn't worth 3 streets on a LOT of rivers vs splashy opponents
About the KK hand at the end: did you consider calling the 4bet, given how weak villain's sizing looked?
i just don't expect a rec to fold so wanna bloat the pot. also an Ace will come like 22% of the time which kills action when they have other pocket pairs. if i had AA i'd be more likely to do that vs some players though
4da Algo!

6:12 Regulate their bluffing frequency, i reckon at this point they are trying to regulate their heartbeat with 6 high 2x pot river punt
lmfao

oh that was kinda hot ngl
hahaha the whole vid??
The iambluff guys is not Charlie it’s a an L instead of i
yep was pretty certain on this too
@@BenaBadBeatPoker yup seems like he’s a pro too he regs high stakes multi table every day
❤
Idda prolly Jamed the KK pre-flop after he 4 bet me
definitely reasonable!
Bro is playing 50 vpip , just put the money in and be unhappy
that's not really how it works
@@BenaBadBeatPoker I meant put the money in with a call when he jams at the end of the
ohhh hahaha yeah gotta flick it in at that point!
@@BenaBadBeatPoker love you Bena , rooting for big upswing big $ your way
Hypppppe intro
hahaha glad you liked it mate!
11:30 33 hand, if this IS Charlie, I'd for sure give up river I think, because he notoriously feigns weakness with his timing on the turn by acting super quick with a hand that is never folding. So I'd never expect to see two pair or sets for this specific timing vs your turn raise from Charlie.
yeah tbh i was pretty certain it wasn't charlie but if it was you're totally right to be cautious vs timing
Against whale id b50 turn 1st hand i think
definitely an option but this really is a truly terrible turn card for us. on soooo many rivers our hand wont be worth three streets either. fwiw i don't think what i did is necessarily better or worse than turn bet though
15:00 the KTo turn jam is so bad, His blockers are terrible, he only blocks hands you do not have! In his little mind he might be thinking he is blocking KJ and JT which you dont call 4 bets with, as like you say even AJ suited is fringe. Also he blocks TT which oh fold turn with and you have here a lot! 😂😂
agree mate - beyond punty
The KK hand should’ve been a snap if u had the read that he was spewing preflop. Im suprised u didn’t mention that again in your thought process for calling the river. That should’ve been the number one point of emphasis. That changes the ranges completely and the filtering logic doesn’t apply vs these whales’ atc ranges 🤣
looool yeah but we gotta build the suspense???
@@BenaBadBeatPoker true, forgot about that 😅
"Fuck the haters I guess" 😂😂😂
loool trueeee tho
16:25 that voice would drive me nuts shut him up
Sounds like an Alien 👽

Damn! Congrats🎉
