    Really lokking forwar to this one! But on first glance I am a little disappointed to see no HUD info. Don’t you use any or is it just the review video? I would be especially interested in what stats to look for in HU since vpip and pfr won’t be the primary things to look for anymore.

    hey focault, really good video!!
    some questions:
    when you 3bet 88 you say you have a pretty vulnerable hand thats way ahead of villains range. i agree, but i have some issues in this spot: you have a hand that you want to protect and put money in good but you obviously dont want to get it in 150bss , so how to proceed against a 4bet? ill assume you are flatting a lot but it would be a very tough situation to play 88 oop in a 4bet pot, having to check/fold in a lot of flops or 2barrels. so you could eventually fold the best hand when in a single raised pot it would be less frequent imo. other question about this kind of of spot: when you are so deep stacked against a good opponent , 3bets really tend to not get much credit since you are really getting it in something like QQ+ and (maybe) AK , so couldnt you start to get really exploited by 3 betting those medium range hands by good opponents that will start to 4bet you alot in position and play agreslively post flop?
    anyways, its a very usual spot for me and im not that sure in how to proceed , cause when you 3bet and villain calls and check/folds flops , looks pretty easy , but its not that rare to get pretty tricky. thanks man

    At 22.19 Liv should not be floating OOP if she is not going to bet the river when you check/behind the turn. Its really hard for her to have air by the river that she should be betting 100% of the time.

    Yeah, I mean, you have to play poker. 88 is a pretty good hand that I’m going to 3b until my opponent demonstrates that he’ll 4b constantly. Then I might shift to 3b a more polarized range, but people will also call 3bs really wide IP when deep, so you should 3b a lot for thin value. And the fact that 88 can make a set means it can at least occasionally take heat postflop in a 3b pot, unlike say KTo.

    If your opponent is 4b a ton, you have to be willing to get it in lighter than QQ+,AK, else yes you will get run over. You also need to 3b fewer hands overall.

    I don’t know that she was looking at it as a float. K-high is not without showdown value, and I don’t think it’s that hard for her to show up with worse.

  8. Foucault

    Yeah I really don’t use a HUD much for a HU tournament. There are too many shifting variables of board texture, stack sizes, game flow, etc. I probably use my own stats more than my opponents’, because sometimes I’ll see that my 3b is really low and start to 3b a bit more aggressively or something. But honestly you aren’t missing out on much not having HUD stats up, I’m sure I used them hardly at all while playing this.

    King high is a very optimistic value call. Your perceived range is primarily Ace high by the river or weak pairs so she should be betting here with the weakest parts of her range. She can represent 7x 88s,99s, 10x flushes, and the only bluffs she can have is 8,9 and J,9 and she would probably check/raise those given the way Liv was playing.
