trystero 0 Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 I'd probably fold w/the AhKh thereEddie, with villain being very tight I don't expect him to bluff his missed draws (I know that there's no reason for a tight PFR to be tight postflop). I bet hoping to be called from AJ/KQ. Still I think that the check is fine Link to post Share on other sites

SuperJon 175 Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 So what do you guys think about taking this line vs. a player that is opening a lot, and cbetting a lot, but has a very low fold to 3bet %?The way I see it is, I think A6s plays better against his raising range then it does against his range for flatting 3bets.C/R'ing the flop is just a way to balance my range. Still experimenting with it tho, and not sure if it's worth it or not.Milked from the teat of a feral cowPokerStars No-Limit Hold'em $0.10/$0.25 - 6 playersSB: $25.00 BB: $30.67 (Hero)UTG: $21.15 UTG+1: $25.00 CO: $39.24 Button: $28.86 Preflop: ($0.35) Hero is BB with (6 players)2 folds, CO raises to $0.75, 2 folds, Hero calls $0.50Flop: ($1.60) (2 players)Hero checks, CO bets $1.21, Hero raises to $3.50 Link to post Share on other sites

trystero 0 Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 Yeah...Robert Williamson is not doing a particularly good job in this series. His reasoning isn't always terrible, but almost every hand, he predicts the complete opposite of what happens. "Well, he's never folding here....wow...he folds!" "Well, he's never calling here...wow...he calls!" "Well, he's never raising here...wow...he raises!"Yeah, he does this so much that, at this point, I'm wondering if it's his gimmick.

QED 4 Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 So the first series I have finished watching at cardrunners is Kush's Live Sessions: Rush Poker.The series isn't finished but I've watched the 5 available eps so far. For the first 3 eps Kush replays a video of himself 4 tabling FR Rush at 50NL and comments on his play and for eps 4 & 5 the action is bumped up to 100NL, there is a cameo from one of the posters in this thread in epsiode 4. What I have picked up from this series along with some of the other videos I have watched on cardrunners is that I may be c-betting too and not pot controlling enough. My flop cbet is something like 80% while some of the video producers seem to suggest that 50-60% is a better range as you don't want to be turning some hands into a bluff or getting c/r off your decent equity in some spots. I also have gone a bit far with my new toy 3 bet squeezing, there are probably some spots I could call and play against a range I dominate even OOP and make ze money. One thing that Kush talks about is when he is in CO/button he just folds small pairs when he would he heads up against an EP raiser as he does not think they are likely to pay him off when he hits. This seems a little counter intuitive to me as I would have thought players with tight rangers are more likely to put money into the pot. Pretty good series though if you are already somewhat familiar with full ring and looking to transition to rush. Link to post Share on other sites
trystero 0 Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 yeah, in position I don't understand folding small pairs to EP raisers, especially if the opponents are straightforward/tightI like his c/betting advice .

It's not that interesting of a pot. You open, Kush calls on the button, caller in the blinds. KTX flop, blind checks, you cbet and kush folds. So you will have to tell us if you took it down or not, the video ends on a cliff hanger as kush folded. Link to post Share on other sites

SuperJon 175 Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 I like his c/betting advice . I thought I was the only player in the whole world who didn't c/bet all that oftenI don't remember what I was watching where I heard it, but I know Phil Galfond commented that Dwan doesn't cbet very often. I believe his reasoning was because Tom is confident that he can make better decisions than most opponents on the turn and river. Link to post Share on other sites
