Also that Q9 vs AQ hand...i dont understand why Dan doesnt fire on turn, much more credible history if you gonna bluff the river with 0 sdv. On the other side, why are you check folding that river with AQ? if i check that river is to induce, and im snap calling.
I mean were talking about two of the better players in all of the game of poker and I imagine this is a line Dan Smith only takes against someone whose capable of understanding whats going on. The reason he gets Benger to muck AQ on the river is for the simple fact theoretically if Dan had air he would bet the flop or at least the turn. Its much more likely Dan has a marginal hand that he wants to get to showdown with and then decides to value bet the river then a hand that cant beat A high. This is part of balancing a range. Its basically just a level. The fact that you would snap with A high here is exactly why Dan is probably not likely to ever be bluffing. This is obv more high level stuff but were talking about King Dan and Griffin Benger here so they have to do stuff like this.
