Id go for the allin with JJ on JJ7Kx river. If villain has a sneakily played 77 or or just possibly KK you get their stack. If they have almost anything else you get nothing as they should be worried about you having trip Js as preflop was small raise. I play at 0.02/0.05 though and I'm only break even 😂
Fair enough on the quads hand. I would have been all in and if he calls awesome, if he folds that sucks. What you were saying definitely makes sense though. It is super hard to get value from hands that you have the board so locked up on. If people were more aggressive, would block work there as well?
it's very tilting that when Luke is on screen, he is in Alex's "box" and using the "Alex" banner beneath him. I caught myself (early) thinking "wait, the student's name is 'Alex' too?"
This is by far the most nerd poker channel in my list. I understand maybe 10% of the stuff this guy says, but still I like watching it. I don't know why. Jeez I don't even play poker anymore. 🤨
In the J8dd hand around 8 mins, this is a spot I struggle with. Hero bets turn small with a medium strength hand. I take Pete's point that we shouldn't let our range constrain the action we take with our particular hand. But if we're betting small here, doesn't it mean we have to also bet small with the nuts sometimes in order to not cap our range here? In other words, you were saying that for fish, bet size = hand strength. But we don't want to be that transparent ourselves. This is where it gets complicated for me.
Hand 2 checking the turn all day every day (unless villain is station+whale). We have decent showdown value and gutshot equity but we dont crush villains range. No need to shovel chips in and bloat the pot risking villain coming over the top putting us in shit spot or inspiring us to be too creative on the river because the pot is sxc. Im betting more polar here. 68s and sets type of range distribution. With top pair gutshot im planning for x/x x/x, or maybe a x/c on the river depending on what peels off.
they are "cleaning up the opponent's equity" meaning that even if the opponent has only say 20% equity, he is not drawing dead, so forcing him to surrender his hypothetical share of the pot (that his 20% earns over time) is very beneficial.
If you need a shit player I play 25nl and have a bunch of terrible hands per session, I( can send them in if you need someone to laugh at. Love the channel.
Would you have hired Alex if he was a 50 zoom reg in international pools with the same skill level? It feels like you just want to use this so claimed “high stakes reg” to pretend you’re better than you are
Thanks again for having me guys!
you were an excellent student this session. Good luck at the tables.

Alex's face when Pete was explaining "investment spew" was killing me 😭

work on your mental game

Pete can you go back to using colors ?? I can’t see suits
first hand fold river against a rec player. he has no bluffs there.

Great video so glad i found these!
great episode, love this dynamic
What did villain have in that J8dd hand? I imagine seeing a lot of AK AQ flipped over
They had J7cc :)
I heard the term "clean" used a couple times. What does that mean in this context?
they are "cleaning up the opponent's equity"
meaning that even if the opponent has only say 20% equity, he is not drawing dead, so forcing him to surrender his hypothetical share of the pot (that his 20% earns over time) is very beneficial.
They’re using it synonymously with equity “denial”
very poker unrelated but his face in the thumbnail always looks light he's taking a dookie
Alex a coach in cps now?
having three coaches talk about playing Quad in pos is the biggest waste of your talents and our time. Love you.
Only 15% of the video and they talked about concepts you can apply without quads
So is way over complicating everything when the game is simple as sheit and gigantically luck based.
