Q

I 3-bet SB vs CO, CO calls.

Flop comes 87hh,2d.

What do I do with AJo no hearts?

Talk about other hands which take a different action

A

This is the nut low to start bluffing, as this will never fold a better hand. Villian’s range connects well with this flop, he has all the pocket pairs, flush draws, T9,JT, and will not fold AQ/AK on the flop (and if A will be the turn I’m going to get stacked).

Better bluffs will be AJo with one, KQo with one heart, gutshots (J9s, JTs, T9s etc), or backdoors like QJdd,

Q

I 3-bet SB vs CO, CO calls.

Flop comes 87hh,2d.
X/X (CO quickly checks back-about 2 seconds)

Turn 10c

What is villian’s range now, and what do I do on the turn?

A

Answer: Now i have a gutshot and two overs. Villian quickly checked back so his range is pocket pairs, AK, AQ, i can discard many strong hands and draws, because those will at least think about betting the flop, and also we don’t expect villian’s check back range to be balanced.

Villian’s most likely range:
66,55,AQo,AKo,KQ,QJ,

I’m going to bet the turn, because of my equity and because I expect to get a lot of folds from better hands (AQ/AK/66/55) or hands that are live vs AJo (KQ).

Q

I 3-bet SB vs CO, CO calls.

Flop comes 87hh,2d.
X/X (CO quickly checks back-about 2 seconds)

Turn 10c, I bet 70% pot and I get snap-called.

Pot is 50BB and effective is 89BB.

River 3s

What is villian’s range? What’s the action that i want to take?

A

Villian snap-called the turn, not thinking for a second to raise (or fold), so his range will be very condensed:

Tx like AT,KT,QT - are less likely because those hands might take a second to think about how they want to proceed,
66,55, AK, maybe some Q9/K9,

I think I can make all this range, except maybe KT/AT, fold. All in.

Q

I have 99 and I 3-bet as BB vs CO, get called,21.5 in the pot, 95BB effective.

Flop comes 837r, do I bet or do I check this flop?

A

I bet for thin value (worse pocket pairs, 8x) and for protection (a random KQs) at a high frequency -

Notice that I beat only 3 pocket pair hands. Bet small and force him to call with two overcards, with a specific plan for the turn

Q

I have 99 and I 3-bet as BB vs CO, get called,21.5 in the pot, 95BB effective.

Flop comes 837r, i bet small he calls,
pot is 38BB effective behind is 88BB.

Turn is a 3. What do I do?

A

Check at a high frequency, since his range coming from the flop is wide, it’s very easy for him to overbluff the turn, so we let him. That was the plan on the flop.

Flop comes 837r, i bet small he calls,
pot is 38BB effective behind is 88BB.

Turn is a 3. I check, he bets 18BB, what do I do?

A

I jam, since 99 is still vulnerable and needs protection. Better traps would be AA/KK.

Q

I open 64s from CO, SB rec calls. Flop comes KQ9r, c-bet 33% called.

Turn K. What should I do and why?

A

Bet extremely small (25% pot) so villain will raise a K every single time, then bet big on the river vs a capped range.

Q

I open KTss from HJ, sb calls, rec on BB min clicks to 5BB, call, call, pot is 15BB.

Flop J87 dcd, he bets 3BB, call,call, pot is 24 BB.

Turn 3c he bets 5BB into 24.

What’s his range? What should I do about it?

A

BB capped himself on the turn so hard that he never has a Jx or better.

We don’t have direct odds to call for a gutshot but we do have “bluff outs”.

Call with “bluffing outs”. Outs are 9,K (for actual value), but also J, diamonds and T. Always think my perceived range is, and what I can represent when I face a check.

River Ac they both instantly check.
What’s their range? What should i do about it?

A

They are both very capped. Maybe one of them has Ad, but even with Ad someone might think for a second there. That’s the top of their range. They have mostly stuff like 99/TT.

I can bet 20BB and target their underpairs.

Q

I open A7hh from HJ, sb rec makes it 6BB, BB whale (40 vpip) calls, I call.

Flop comes 433r one heart, they both insta-check. What do I do?

A

Overpairs never insta-check, so they have either air like suited broadways, AK/AQ, or (more rarely) nutted hands like A3/44. Bet small so he can continue with a wide range (like AK/AQ) and then barrel him off any non-pair hand on later streets.

Q

I call as BB K5dd vs a 2.5BB BU open by a rec who has 38% vpip. Pot is 5.5BB.

Flop comes 2s3d4s, I check, and he instantly bets 4BB.
What do I do?

A

There are conflicting signals:

on the one hand, he has a huge vpip, and he opened from BU.

On the other hand, he bet big and instantly.

I can either call or raise. I lean towards being a more passive player so my natural tendency is to call.
PSM’s analysis: Recs telegraph the strength of their hand with bets sizing. When he bets this board, he has a strong range like - overpairs, a pair plus a flush draw etc a lot of the time. While our hand usually makes a nice X/R on this board, this isn’t the right time to do that vs his range.

The way to exploit this spot is to pure X/R when i have value (like 2-pair plus), and if the same villain bets smaller on a board like this in the future, X/R with a higher frequency.

Villian had TT.

Q

I’m HJ open TT as HJ, BU rec (60BB stack) 3-bets to 6BB, I call. Flop comes Th4cJh,

He bets half pot (7 into 13.5), what do I do?

A

X/R to a sizing that AK/AQ will call, so raise to 17BB or sth like that, use milky sizing and be okay with him hitting his gutshot here- the times when he hits his gutshot will be worth all the other times when i get him to call. same on the turn (milky sizing of about 16BB)

Q

BVB, I have A6o and call as BB vs SB aggressive rec,

flop comes AQ2 two clubs, he bets 3BB into 6, I call, turn 5, he bets 6BB into 12BB (Now I think I’m good here most of the time, as stronger hands would most likely bet bigger) and I call,
river 9 he checks, what do I do?

A

I’m ahead of him most of the time, Avery went for inducing - he bet 1/6 pot on the river :D

Why?

A. Aggressive rec
B. Identified during the hand that they have taken out their value part of their range (sizing tells)

HJ 40% VPIP opens, I’m in sb with 55, , BB is a 41% VPIP.. I call BB calls.

Flop comes 775hdd I check, BB donks third pot (2.5BB into 7.5), CO calls, it’s on me. What should I do?

A

Raise.

  1. We are OOP, it will be a disaster if we call and the turn gets checked through
  2. Their range: one of them most likely has either a flush draw or a straight draw, or an overpair,or a 7. X/R small to make sure they call when I have a nutted hand.

What should I do?

A

It’s likely that at least one villain has a flush or 7x.

Bet 20BB so I can shove river.

River Ks, effective is 80BB, pot is 90BB, what should I do?

A

One or both have a flush or a 7x, with those hands if i check they are unlikely to bet themselves, but they will call a big bet.

Q

I open QQ on LJ (2BB), BU (a reg,200BB deep with him) calls, SB calls, BB, aggressive reg (effective 130 with him) squeezes to 14BB, I call, BU snap call, SB folds.
Pot 44BB, flop is 789hss, I had red queens, BB snap checks.

What do I do?

A

Once BB snap-checks, I can discount his nutted range like JTs, combo draws like ATss,99 etc. He is going to have a lot of AK type of hands here.

BU has called both an open and a 3-bet. His range will be rich in hands that smashes the board like 66-JJ,and suited broadway like JTs, KTs,ATs,AJs,KJs,JTs. All of those hands are either flipping against me or have extremely good equity vs QQ.

Bet very small for denial and value vs both players.

River 9,

What do I do?

A

Tx or a set at least considers betting. This looks like JJ or A9s all the time.
A9-2 combos to which we lose, JJ-6 combos that we beat. Bet small (6BB into 60BB lol).

Q

How do I balance my timings?

A

Even if I know what my hand wants to do (it’s a pure raise/call for example), take a few seconds (5-10 seconds) and think about my overall strategy in this spot, what does my range do, what’s my opponent’s likely range, and not just what my hand is likely to do.

23
Q

as CO vs BB, SRP,
flop comes AhKcTc,

do I bet or check? Why?

A

Both options are fine:
Betting gets value from JT,T9,T8,KJ,K9

Checking with this much SDV is also fine.

GTO mostly bets (range bets a lot on this flop in general).

Avery notes that we can successfully bluff a one pair (Ax) hand on many runouts on this board, so even if he calls flop with Ax it’s fine. Yes, it is plus EV to check the hand on the turn and take it to showdown(vs a worse Kx and missed fds), but it’s even more EV to turn my hand into a bluff (Solver always checks down on a blank turn and river btw)

24
Q

I call BB vs CO open with QJhc.

Flop comes Qs5sTc, I check,

Villian snap-bets 4BB into 5.5BB.

My action?

A

His range is strong based on his action (snap bet big), vast majority of players taking this size on this flop will be way stronger than the solver would be here.

On this board we don’t fold top pair, but it’s ok to already fold a T, even though the solver wouldn’t (a solver is indifferent with a T here vs a weaker range).

25
I call BB vs CO open with QJhc. Flop comes Qs5sTc, I check, Villian snap bets 4BB into 5.5BB I call. Turn 6h I check, villian snap-bets 5 into 15, my action?
Based on his sizing, most of his range looks now like draws/TPGK and not two pair plus, call. Villian had AQ and checked river.
26
I open AA from CO, BB calls (100BB effective). Flop comes J43r, I bet third pot (1.5BB into 4.5), villian snap X/R to 4.5BB. My action? Which type of hands want to call? Which type of hands want to raise? What hands are nice 3-bet bluffs on the flop?
My equity vs his bluffing range (QTs with a backdoor, A2,A5,76s etc) is huge so I don't need much protection. so AA Call. More vulnerable hands under other textures want to raise more. Nice bluffs would be A4s A3s with backdoor flush: 1. They block value 2. They unblock bluffs Notice how I don't want to have 5x,6x,Tx in my hand that 3-bet bluffs, since then it's less likely villain is bluffing.
27
I open AA from CO, BB calls (100BB effective). Flop comes J43r, I bet third pot (1.5BB into 4.5), villian snap X/R to 4.5BB. I call. Turn is 8s, villain bets half pot (6.8BB) after 3 seconds. What's his range? What's my action?
with this sizing he almost never has two pair plus, He has some flush draws and Jx,some underpairs, some gutshots like QT, anyways I have the nuts right now. Raise 20BB.
28
I open AA from CO, BB calls (100BB effective). Flop comes J43r, I bet third pot (1.5BB into 4.5), villian snap X/R to 4.5BB. I call. Turn is 8s, villain bets half pot (6.8BB) after 3 seconds, I raise to 20BB, he calls. Pot is 54BB,effective stack behind 72BBs. River 7h, he snap-checks, my action?
Most of his range are missed draws (gutshots, flush draws), 65/T9 which completed a straight on the river, or sometimes Jx. Check back. Villian had 65ss (!!!).
29
I call 85dd on BB vs a tight LJ open. Flop is KcQc8d. I check, he snap-bets 2.3BB into 4.5BB. What do I do?
Fold: 1. I might be dead already 2. Can't hold if he continues betting his high-equity draws on further streets 85s without a backdoor is indifferent, in theory and can do all 3 actions (call,fold,raise).
30
I open TT in the CO,BB calls. Flop 567hhc,X/B75/C Turn 3 X/X River another 3 and he insta-check. Pot is 11BB What's his range, and what should I do?
A straight/full house would at least think on the river, so he has some pocket pair/one pair type of hand a lot of the time. Many players don't believe the bet check bet line, and call a lot when the board pairs and some draws missed (flush draws) Bet almost pot.
31
I open A6dd from LJ, a 60% VPIP player 3-bets me to 7.5BB, I call (this player will make a lot of mistakes postflop). Flop comes AsKh8h. He bets 4.7BB into 15BB, I call. Turn 3s, he insta-checks. Pot is 25BB, 100BBs effective stack behind. What do I do?
With hands like AA,KK,88,AK,AQ and flush draws/OESD he probably mostly bets and at least thinks a little on the turn. He can still have AT/AJ, but most of his range is stuff like 99-QQ and Kx. He's not folding his range to one bet for sure, and I want to get value. if turn goes X/X he might not call those hands on the river unimproved. Bet third pot (8BB). Then on a blank river, bet small again (10BB). Either one of those bets, is a huge part of the win rate, and missing those bets is expensive.
32
a 60% VPIP opens LJ 20 2.5BB, I have ATo from HJ, what do I do?
3-bet to 7.5BB: 1. This hand is ahead of his range 2. We have position a big part of the win rate is getting involved with recs who have too loose of a range, when I'm in position.
33
a 60% VPIP opens LJ 20 2.5BB, I have ATo from HJ, and 3-bet to 7.5, he calls. Flop comes KcQcTd, he checks. Effective 131BB behind. Pot is 15BB, what do I do?
I check back. Any two broadways are better than ATo, and he's most likely folding 22-99. the advantage of betting is to try and bluff him, but so much of his range are two pair, one pair+gutshot, that I really don't think it's a good idea.
34
a 60% VPIP opens LJ 20 2.5BB, I have ATo from HJ, and 3-bet to 7.5, he calls. Flop comes KcQcTd, he checks,I check. Turn 7d and he snap-bets 22.5BB into 16BB. What do I do?
I snap fold. His action conveyed a lot of information about the strength of his hand, the times that he has value outweigh the times when he has a bluff...
35
vs what players do I want to even have a 4-bet-bluff range? With what hands do I want to do it?
Do they have enough hands that they 3-bet fold that it makes sense to do it to? AGAINST TIGHT PLAYERS, DON'T HAVE A 4-BET-BLUFF RANGE. I want to do it with hands that block their shoving range, and have a decent equity when I get called.
36
I open 44 from CO, BB calls. Flop comes KJ8r, X/B33/C Turn 5c, what reasons do I have to sometimes barrel the turn?
People overfold compared to theory, so I can make 66,77,99,TT and some 8x to fold the turn (some people even fold all their Jx on the turn).
37
I open KTdd from HJ, and I get called by CO and SB. Flop comes Kc7d4d, sb checks to me. My action?
I thought: Mostly bet (for value/protection). PSM - it's important that we check this, we can call any 2 streets, and a lot of our opponnents' ranges - we are going to cooler them for a large pot, a lot of their range are 88, and on 8d they turn a set we turn a flash, or if they have A5cc we are going to cooler them on Ad.
38
I open KTdd from HJ, and I get called by CO and SB. Flop comes Kc7d4d, sb checks to me, i check, BU (a very tight reg) bets half pot, I call, sb folds, turn is a 3h, he bets half pot, I call. River is a Qhs, I check, pot is 30BB and he bets 34BB. What should I do?
I am blocking missed flush draws, he's a tight player and almost always will have a set/two pair/straight that he ain't folding if I raise, I am going to fold.
39
LJ opens, I call on BU with 65dd to let rec on BB into the pot, BB calls. Flop comes A75sdh, checks to me. What should I do?
Checking advantages: I might turn a lot of equity (two pair, 3 of a kind, diamond,OESD) and cooler some Ax. Disadvantage: They might pick up equity on the turn that they might not fold. Betting advantages: I will clean up equity such as two broadway or a pocket pair without a d and doing this to two players is beneficial. Disadvantage: might get check/raised, and yeah i could pick up a back-door but yikes Data points: UTG checked with the rec being in the pot - so we can take out a lot of his value range, if he had 77 or AK for sure he wants to bet to get value from the rec's weaker Ax, it's possible he's trapping AA I lean more towards betting. 65dd is a great hand to start bluffing with, other than folding a lot of equity, I can successfully bluff UTG's underpairs in many different runouts.
40
LJ opens, I call on BU with 65dd to let rec on BB into the pot, BB calls. Flop comes A75sdh, checks to me, I bet 2.6BB, BB folds, LJ snap-calls. Turn Qd,LJ checks. Should I bet or check?
He didn't think even for a second, so mostly likely he doesn't have a strong Ax/a set (or he would think at least for a little bit). Bet big- Avery overbet, LJ snapfolded. Avery says that I will get people to lay down Ax all day with this line (except Ax of diamonds).
41
HJ reg opens, I call from BB with AQo. Flop comes AJ8r, I check, he bets 2.8 into 5.5, I call. Turn 4d I check he snap-bet 5.5 into 11, what should I do?
He didn't overbet turn,and didn't think about it - he has some bluffs, or a weaker Ax most of the time. With AK plus he would take his time, and probably bet bigger. Avery called and then when the river came a J, he led 33% pot into the villain (villain will not continue bluffing, and will check behind a weaker A-x).
42
I open JTss from CO,BB calls. Flop comes AT8cds, I c-bet he snap calls. pot is 7.5BB. Turn 6s, BB checks, what should i do?
Always check, villian does have combos of two pair plus (97s,T6s,86s and A6s) and my hand would hate to get check/raised.
43
I open JTss from CO,BB calls. Flop comes AT8cds, I c-bet he snap calls. pot is 7.5BB. Turn 6s, BB checks, I check back. River 8d, villain thinks for 3 seconds and bets 3.7BB into 7.5BB. What should I do?
What's his range when he does this action? Almost never 8x, maybe Ax, sometimes Tx, maybe hands that missed like J9, KQ,KJ,QJ. Because we hold Js we fold, since we block villian's bluffing range (backdoor spades and see all the hands I mentioned). It is literally higher EV in GTO to call 22 than this hand (this hand is indifferent, 22 pure calls with a higher EV).
44
I open K9dd from LJ, BU calls, BB calls. Flop comes AJ9shs, BB checks, what do I do?
Bet! The hand is going to function as a good triple-barrel on bricks - 1. We have a large range advantage as they never have a set here (ok ok one combo of 99...) 2. We can win by triple barrelling vs a J and A: we block their strongest hands (J9, 99 ,A9) 3. with our K we unblock their OESD (QT,T8), so we unblock a lot of their draws.
45
a very tight player opens from BU. Name reasons for and against flatting 44 as sb
1. he's not going to put a lot of pressure postflop and lets me get to show down with those small pockets 2. Because he has a tighter range, even from BU, I will cooler him sometimes Against: 1. If BB is aggressive and will squeeze a lot
46
a very tight rec player opens from BU, I flat 44 as sb, BB reg flats. Flop comes TT5r. Name reasons for leading the flop in this configuration. What boards do we do this on?
1. A tight rec won't bluff raise us with hands like 76dd 2. The reg would in a different scenario , but he's sandwiched between us and an uncapped rec. We do this on boards that we can rep a strong range when I have a hand that wants protection now (benefits a lot from them folding their air part of their range) and get called by their high cards hands and get to check it down
47
I open 88 from LJ, a rec on HJ 3-bets small (5BB),I call, pot is 11.5 Flop comes 956, what should I do?
He actually donk-bet the flop! Assuming villain is going to play completely face-up and honest, this hand wants a lot of protection vs two overcards, I want him to fold his KT/KQ and call with AK/AQ. Donk Bet 3.8BB.
48
I open red 88 from LJ, a rec on HJ 3-bets small (5BB),I call, pot is 11.5 Flop comes 9d5s6s,I lead 3.8BB into 11.5, he raises to 13.8BB. What should I do?
He has some overpair a lot of the time, and some nut flush draws. against that range, I have 1+2 clean outs (8s and 7s are not clean outs). I'd fold immediately. PSM called because it's a small raise, he considered 8s 7s as outs as well.

I open red 88 from LJ, a rec on HJ 3-bets small (5BB),I call, pot is 11.5 Flop comes 9d5s6s,I lead 3.8BB into 11.5, he raises to 13.8BB, I call. Turn Ks (completing the flush), i check, he SNAP-checks back. River 5c, what should I do?
Since villain SNAP checked back, this means he never has a flush or KK/99, as those hands (which check infrequently as well on the turn) would at least think about it on the turn. His range is JJ/QQ/TT. I can make him fold this range a lot of the time,as given flop action my perceived range is 99/flush draws. I'm all in. Villian insta-folds.

i open AsJc from HJ, BB calls. Flop comes Qc4cTd, X/B33,C after 3 secs. Turn 4h x/B100/snapcall. River 7d, he check, pot is 22.5,effective 120BB behind, what should I do?
He snap-called on the turn, meaning that his range doesn't have 4x, TT. It's mostly Qx,Tx, or missed flush/straight draws. Jc is a horrible card to have, as it blocks both KJ and some flush draws. I'd give up. GTOW does give up PSM: Even though we play a very exploitative style, it needs to be backed in theory, "having Jc might be the single worst card to have in the deck to bluff as we are blocking some of his folds" - and he does give up(!). The lesson is to always be aware of theory and know how far we can get away, can't be bombing things at random.

Splash pot of 10BB, I open to 7.5 from CO with Qd9h, BB calls. Flop comes 9s6s2h, I c-bet he tanks for 3 seconds and calls. Turn Kh, pot is 42.3BB, 85BB effective behind. Am I betting or checking?
It's better to check. I could bet this hand for protection/value from flush draws, but i could get blown off this hand, and if I bet this mediocre hand, my check back range is really weak. He preferred to X turn to keep villian's range weak on the river, river was Jh, villain bet half pot, Ian thought about jamming (as a bluff) but ended up calling, villain had 53o :D

as BB vs sb, sb limps, i raise with Kd7h, he calls. Flop comes KQ8r, x/ I c-bet he calls. Turn 9h, what should I do?
I'd mostly check back. While we can thin value bet vs a worse K, or a Qx, villain can now have a lot of two pair/straights, and I need to have some strong hands in the x back range on the turn

as BB vs sb, sb limps, i raise with Kd7h, he calls. Flop comes KQ8r, x/ I c-bet he calls. Turn 9h X/X River J, and villian after 2-3 seconds bets 3.8BB into 11.6BB. My action?
With this sizing, villian can still have Tx. He also has a lot of two-pair hands like KQ,QJ,Q8 etc. I think that the two options I have are -Bluff -Fold. What kind of Tx call me on the flop? TT,KT,QT, JT. I block KT, board blocks JT, TT he might limp-3 bet. Raise as a bluff to 14BBs.
