Just wanted to throw out some ideas for future episodes! 1) deep dive into blockers/unblockers (honestly an updated solver based lab module here would be amazing given how this topic has evolved in recent years) 2) float bets on flop and turn follow-through, 3) more Turn content (such a beast of a topic!)
Another thing great about range betting is it can set up a river situation where you’re betting a polarized range and your opponent is defending a condensed range, which is terrific.
good stuff but this assumes players are playing somewhat close to GTO. The tournament I played today saw 5 AK consecutively just flat (oop on 4/5). We got to see the hands so that was great. I think most players are not 4 betting with AK anymore. So C-betting your Khigh flops, ime is a tad risky
Most of us play in games where there are 3+ players taking a flop. So isn't this focus on heads up situations too narrow to really be useful for most spots we find ourselves in? If most of the post I was in were 2 players to the flop. I'd go find a softer game.
So when you say something like "you range bet %60 of the time as the BTN vs BB, SRP with a flop of K65rb" does that mean you range bet with the top %60 of your range or that you randomize, using whatever you do to randomize, and it its in the %60 percentile you c-bet?
Unfortunately it's never that simple. Typically you'll be betting with your best hands more often than 60%, your worst hands more often than 60% and your middling strength hands less than 60%
It makes you bluff c-bets more profitable and (most of) your value c-bets less profitable. If you range c-bet and they over-fold, it makes the range c-bet strategy more profitable.
Not sure what you mean by "they hit a 3" but generally speaking range betting works against weaker players too. The idea is that your range is so strong and theirs is so weak that you can just bet everything and they won't have enough good hands to do anything about it. But of course, there are some very sticky/loose players against whom you should dial back the c-bet frequency because they simply won't fold enough.
@UpswingPoker I meant that they made a pair, no matter what it is they feel they are good, I just witnessed the other night an old man call pre bet with 54 and because he hit his 5 he decides to call the players all in jam, we were all like what the F, sometimes you make this stuff up but that's a player that wouldn't have any idea of range betting or what I'm trying to do, but I do get the concept and appreciate the info.
@@virtualjoker9036 That's what I thought you meant, thanks for clarifying. Range bets aren't meant to make your opponent fold pairs. They're mostly targeting the weak hands that have totally missed the flop. Against those players like your old man opponent, if he's calling with 54 preflop , he's also calling preflop with many other hands, most of which will miss the flop. The range bet targets THOSE missed hands.
You have good poker theory may be better than Jonathan Little. But your example always black and white Not as clear as Jonathan 's examples. I guess just make e ample stand out from your white and black will make us much easier to understand. I think most people here are non PRO. So it is a little hard to understand you if you just taking without clear exams. Just my two cents.
Great content as always. Honestly this series is the best free poker content I've ever found.
Thanks for this. Out of all the videos so far, this one caught perhaps my biggest leak so far which was range betting too many boards.

Thanks Jesus. I added all to my Level Up topic list. I'll see if any coaches want to make an updated blockers module too
Awesome, keep up the great work you guys…absolutely look forward to getting my solver nuggets from you guys every week!!!
it's Wednesday and you'd best believe I'm here for it.
I like those videos. Learning alot.

Yo guys - Conniff versys Turkish guy HU FT, Conniff 3b AsJ - calls river Ace High - would love to see y'all analyze that shit
When you say BTN checks 40% of the time, does it matter what cards he has? Or is it just a frequency thing that he does with his whole range?

True or false?
The fact that they don't continue with Q7s on K65rb with BDFD makes our cbet profitable.
It makes you bluff c-bets more profitable and (most of) your value c-bets less profitable.
If you range c-bet and they over-fold, it makes the range c-bet strategy more profitable.
Doesn't this only work when your playing players that understand, you play dumb players, they don't care what your doing, they hit a 3

Few years too late to be calling rangebetting “new” lmao
Thinly veiled brag. We get it bro you've been range betting for years.

Can you elaborate what you mean by "black and white" examples?
@@mbradycf for example AK6 flop, as reader, we prefer AK6 in different color than your other content.
reasonable feedback, thanks @@mingli3442
That foreign guy talks too fast…sounds like mush….have him talk slower….
The guys Scottish, the fact that we can even understand a little is a miracle.
I can't understand him because I'm distracted by how goddamn handsome he is!
He's just excited to share all these juicy strats with you!
Serious suggestion: you can slow the video down to .75 speed. Will probably help you here.
wait, he was speaking English?! haha
so funny to hear a Scottish guy referred to as "foreign".
