  • čas přidán 4. 04. 2022
  • After a slow 2 hours of no real noteworthy hands, we run into a big spot where we punt off our first $600 buy-in. We rebuy for another $600, and…can we recover? This session is full of aggressive players who 3-bet liberally, and we try our hand at taking advantage of our reads on them, shutting them down with some well-timed 4-bets!

    What continuation bet sizing do you think is appropriate on the flop of the AK hand at 9:28?

      @gholamrezatashbin9226 Před 2 lety +3

      I like your bet ... I like the standard 1/3 pot size bet there myself ... I like that it can disguise your monster hands and your big draws ... gives no information to your opponent!

      140 bet is fine, especially with your style. Smaller sizing=more of your range you can bet with

    • @xxWh1teboixx
      @xxWh1teboixx Před 2 lety +2

      Think the hand was played perfectly, especially if you believed he had a made hand. Only time I would just call the raise on the turn is if there was some belief that he was bluffing pure air.
      Dont think he is putting 700 in the pot without some kind of equity, better to get it in without any scare cards coming to freeze the action.

    • @xxWh1teboixx
      @xxWh1teboixx Před 2 lety +1

      And I also agree Aces w Ace of hearts would be a nice hand to bluff with for balance in that same situation (not sure if you really need to be balanced at 1/3 though, would depend on who you are playing)

    • @HuggiePoker
      @HuggiePoker  Před 2 lety +1

      Mark, I agree with your assessment about only calling the turn raise in such scenarios. I didn't expect this to be one of those times, which is why I went with it. 😄

    What an excellent run this week Huggie! Got rid of your run bad right off the bat to put you in line for your greatest yet! As far as the AK hand, I think your sizing is spot on disguising not only the strength of your hand, but grows the pot at the same time. It also offers the villain a good price to continue with a myriad of hands in this spot! Great job! Congratulations on not only playing your biggest pot but also winning it! I'm sure this one will be remembered for a long time! See ya next week brother!

      Yeah, I'm so happy I was able to take that huge pot down after losing two huge pots in earlier $1/3 sessions. It definitely gave me some added confidence! Hopefully the trend continues long term (though I have had some losing sessions since then, which will be since in a future vlog). Thanks for watching and for the encouragement!

      I've shared that sentiment, I definitely have felt very intimidated just trying to get myself to play bigger stakes the first few times! I'm still feeling that way, but it's subsiding a bit at $1/3, though it's definitely still there for $2/5. I think it's just one of those things where it'll only go away with experience. Thanks, and good luck!

    at 9:30 a 140 downbet seems like perfect sizing. I'd prefer a smooth call on turn and maybe donk jam river but he wasn't folding with his holding no matter what

    • @HuggiePoker
      @HuggiePoker  Před 2 lety +1

      Since I've started playing $1/3 MTS more, I've been finding that trapping in these spots works better at $1/2 than it does at the $1/3 game. Specifically, people aren't overvaluing hands as much, and they may be less willing to get the money in on scary river cards, where it could go check/check. In that AK hand specifically, the river paired the board, and it would have been scary for either of us to value bet there, leaving money on the table (for me). If my hand was a boat at that point, or another hand that is not going to be scared of some river cards, I'd be more inclined to take that route I think.

    The KQo hand at about 11:45. Why did you "down bet" after the flop? I've seen you do this pretty frequently across your vlogs, and not the only time in this session. What's your thinking there?

    • @HuggiePoker
      @HuggiePoker  Před 2 lety

      I think downbetting on flops is more common in bigger games than smaller stakes games. It basically accomplishes the same goal of getting missed hands to fold while keeping in hands that are behind for a good price. We also don't want to overly bloat the pot with just one pair, even though it is top pair. This hand is a good example where, if I had bet more on the flop before checking back the turn, you can imagine we would have faced a much larger river bet while still only having the same amount of information.

      It depends on where you play, but I typically play at The Lodge, which has the lowest fees around here. They charge $25/month for a membership and $10/hour for a seat. There's no rake, so it's basically a trade-off. It's a great price when you're getting hands and running well, but it obviously doesn't feel good when you're card dead.

I guess you're targeting calls from QJss and 78ss? That's it though. That's a very poor sizing. I like a 1/4 sizing of 65$. Maybe somebody spazzes. Betting 150$, nobody is spazzing.

      We're 700+ bigs deep on a flop that KJ, KQ, QJ, 87, TX, 9X, and a lot of pairs are probably calling a bet on. We've seen in this session and earlier ones that players in Texas are willing to call pre-flop 3-bets and 4-bets with a wide range, and I've also got an aggressive image at the table that I'm expecting opponents to play back at me with. I've got no reason to play it slow here.
