We'll dissect each phase of the hand, revealing why sometimes, giving your opponent the lead can lead to winning a big pot.

The explanation of the key concept for hand reading and bluff catching begins at 6:18
That was me Bart. Last year Crown in Melbourne increased the 10% rake on 2/5 and 5/10 from $15 max to $25 max. That’s what happens when casinos have a monopoly in a city.
Strikes exist for this reason. Ridiculous rake.
Strikes? I think you’re thinking of revolutions.

Isn't it boycotts?
France is 4% rake no cap (can be capped at 65€ on some higher stakes tables). $25 rake is reached at 620€ in France. Small pots small rake, significantly less rake than even the US until pot reaches ~180€ but it gets incrementally higher. 1k pots happen regularly at a typical 2/4 table and would be raked 40€ in France.
The no flop no drop rule doesn't exist either in France.
Wonder what rake structure is worse between Australia and France! What do you guys think?
Encore Boston Harbor does it
This is the first call I’ve seen where the river decision is a slam dunk no-brainer and the caller actually made it 😂
Right? It’s usually “so I ended up folding and got KT windmilled in my face!”
V could not have a set or 2 pairs here?
@@pot_kivach160Other than the 2 suited 89's, what 2 pairs are here by the turn (when the betting lead was intentionally relinquished..)? Remember the preflop...? Unsuited doesn't make it here, so it's only sets and over-pair played Super tricky (V merely calling the flop...? That'd be a huge deviation, correct? What set isn't raising the small flop bet?...)
Advice? FWIW...
Don't worry about being 100% correct... But do try to not look for, or create monsters out of whole cloth? It will negatively impact (-LT EV) one's win rate/yearly...
TBF? It took me a goodly while and a pile of history analysis to learn to "not look for monsters"..
If we're bankrolled correctly, we can stand the occasional "deviation"/exception and Still be further ahead LT...
GL @ the tables 😁👍
@@patrickjordan2233 I mostly agree. Particularly about two pairs. My initial comment was more about OP _"river decision is a slam-dunk no brainer"_
Thanks for a thorough answer. 👍
.
EDIT: _What set isn't raising the small flop bet?...) Advice?_
I would not discount set here that easily. Agreed that _not creating monster out of blue_ is a good strategy; however, some set concern must be here. #1) it's a head up, #2) V's profile is a huge factor here. Straight forward players would not play it that tricky; however, advanced players would rarely raise set on flop in this hand context. Also, they'd hammered turn as played. So,...river was a hero call in my books. Mean: it's a losing action in the long run.
@@pot_kivach160it’s not impossible someone would slow play a set on the flop. Especially JdJx which blocks top pair and flush draws so might decide it can gamble on a clean turn card.
The other set that might play this way is 88. I think vs hero’s small flop bet 88 always gets to the turn.
So V certainly has some hands that hero is losing to. I think Bart’s point is that V also has a lot of potential bluffs, not that they have no value.
Funneling his likely hand range from preflop into deductions based on bet size variations, as they apply to successive betting streets, this is a good way to improve the average number of correct calls against a polarized villain. Even the bad beats don't hurt the overall win rate this sort of approach can provide.
I speak of Alec Torelli's "hand range funnel" in this manner.
This video shows one of the easier spots, due to the many many hands pocket QQ is blocking that go after this particular board. Excellent analysis, and the caller played it rather well and rather easily.
Would love a ton more videos like this. I'm a bit of a nit but it's not because I don't bluff - it's because I find it hard to call down multiple streets of pressure with just top pair or moderate holding or against large river bets in unclear scenarios. I know I definitely need to call more but need to more clearly identify when.
Jonathan little has a pretty good video on making hero calls that I would recommend.

@@jedidiahwomack83 yeah? And the funneling process would look like what?
Good video but I wish the title didn't give away the ending.
Lately your titles have given away the villain’s hand. Would be nice if you left that in the dark.
Would a flop C/R be a good option on this board as we will have some give ups? As played I think I like check jam with QQ (no diamond) specifically better, and would play check call with for example AA/KK as it needs less protection.
Pink Stanley 👌🏽
I hate villain's pre-flop line with KTs, am I right for thinking that's a bad opening play?

'Good call' nice double meaning
This is a combo of many factors.
1. Hero bet small, then check called turn, appearing weak to Villain, which could lead to Villain bluff.
2. Villain did not triple barrel, a hand that's beating QQ semi probably semi sometimes triple barrels, to extract value, especially if Villain is a LAG, so not triple barreling can be a sign of weakness, not telling a believable story, and thus a possible bluff on river.
3. Related to 2, not telling a believable story.
4. QQ could be technically could be theoretically beat by QT, T7, but QT not likely because of QQ, and even a LAG semi might probably semi usually not raise QT, T7 UTG, then flat call out of position, and would probably either fold or 4 bet with QT, etc, so QT, T7 is unlikely. So if QT, T7 is unlikely, what's left that's beating QQ? JJ, 99, J9, etc. JJ is unlikely but possible for the lag, same with 99, J9. And if LAG is beating QQ when unlikely to be beating QQ, then LAG gets lucky and gets Hero's money.
5. Also if Villain LAG had Villain beat, Villain would probably bet the river small to avoid chasing out Hero, because Villlain LAG would want to extract value from a smaller bet.
6. Villain LAG also probably instabetted extremely quick, without thinking of best way to extract value from hero. That's usually done when bluffing.
7. The hand just screams a BLUFF from Villain LAG, for all the reasons named. Semi Easy call, bluff catch that will be right 19 times out of 20, and 1 time out of 20 Villain LAG gets all of Hero's money.
Considering all the factors, this is both a exploitative, and standard GTO call, bluff catch.
Breakdown :
Villain is UTG and calls a 3bet pre. AK would be a 4bet most of the time, AQ is blocked, maybe AJ suited, which would go a bit larger on the turn or check for pot control. Leaving mostly what... 88,99,1010,JJ. AJ has no point in shoving river... Maybe KQdd for a bluff. Hero blocks Q10 though, but not suited Q combos.
On most this feels like you’re punting opponent has to be really wide and aggro post to be good here . Hero was sticky and got lucky villian at bottom of his range
Even from UTG the calling range should be significantly wider (e.g. JTs/T9s/98s I would guess) than just medium pocket pairs. 🙃 - However, you are certainly not wrong that QQ blocks a huge chunk of Villain's natural bluffs from AQ/KQ. 😉
Villain should never be opening to 4X from UTG & folding to a SB 3-bet.
@@EllieBanks333 exactly. But what does he have when he doesn't 4bet...
@@TomRauhe Obviously I agree he will 4 bet his super premium hands most of the time. So AA & KK become much less likely. As to AK, we have had plenty of calls on CrushLive where players excluded AK due to pre-flop & got shown it at the end. However, I'd agree that AKs goes down. And certainly AKdd is going to raise the flop often.

@@pot_kivach160 maybe to get a fold from QQ?
10% to 15. FFS. At least he wasn't playing 1/2 or 1/3.
Why go small on your cbet OOP? You’re giving your opponent a cheap price to float to set mine.
First 😎
relying solely on one (weak) data: weak C-bet on flop to conclude it's a bluff - is rather poor decision in this hand context. It worked this time. Obviously.
another data (to conclude a bluff) was a must: the V to be rather weak LAG. This, it takes really huge balls and no brains to ram with air into a PF 3!bet Aggressor, c-bettor and one who called rather large turn bet. What does he 3!bet pf and call Turn bet with? AK? - this no need to bluff, if you have any pairs. Beside, I don't think AK would've called large turn bet on a dangerous drawing board. So: V is against an overpair or better.
Well: KTss at least looks like the exact holding one wants to bluff with. 🙃 - Other than that I agree that Villain should absolutely underbluff this spot, as the likelihood of getting a snap call is very high. Also: I really dislike the check from QQ; Hero should imho continue betting small, getting value and protection. With AA: Different story.

@@mikehickmanvloggamessingin3604 Heavily discount T7s, even more so in a 3-bet pot. But, add of course JJ/99/88/98s to Villain's value range. - Also: With any of those hands and only 70% pot left behind shoving is in general a 5-second short breather no-brainer action. 😉
