With nuts for sure, but what bluffs really?
I think both players lack bluffing combos OTT

X/jam turn is the idiot reg play

- idiot reg

There are bad rivers but i think we isolate his range to nuts only when we jam. Also bad rivers for me are good bluffing rivers for him so meh. Obv we fold on a K or Q a lot of the time

haha very unhelpful input from you m9

yeah not a fun one eh

frequency play!

yeah we have like no bluffs ott. Bar 89hh

lmao, idiot hand for an idiot reg

Some justice today. Played really solid and picked up some nice spots.



Ok, so not all nice spots:



Reg deserves this for sneaking flop on me:



Bah, sad i didn't get entire stack vs good reg:



Ok this was pretty **** in theory but in reality vs 2 regs, he should never ever have A5s, 22 or 33 whereas i have 56 A5 and all sets that play this way. Posting to be laughed at, go ahead



Started cycling creatine as of yesterday. Hoping it'll help with further gains!

I really like the J9s hand fwiw, it look like one of my hands. Similar result too

You played much with Nick Howard? I see he is streaming 200z on twitch, thoughts?

K8 seems like a raise somewhere oftenish, esp at 200z.


J9 seems like a trivial fold otf

Interesting spot with J9.
Do you think it`s necessary to shove the river after he calls the xR OTT ? What hands better than yours are you trying to fold on a 8 ?
Also you presented the hand from the persepective that you`re more nutted than him OTR. But how does this information translates to him overfolding in this spot ? You`re also using a pair to represent nutted hands like straights, which might not be the best option in terms of blockers.

Really interested in this as he was barely beating the super soft merge games and he sells a super expensive coaching package

Nice day, Ben! Maybe try not to lose it all tomorrow ya?

J9s definitely cont. in some fashion. Call fine with over and BDFD vs 1/2p. Fold turn tho, don't like hand selection for bluff either.

edit: also re creatine, make sure you aren't doing any loading/deloading nonsense. Just take ~5 games per day for the first month then cut it down to 2-3 grams/day to maintain saturation. Effects are mild at best and make sure you're drinking >3L of water daily.

Friendly reminder to stay hydrated, bro's =)

Such a brah ishter

What does your current food intake look like at the moment? Creatine helps a lot with recovery, and at some point with motivation I would say (you swell up and scale moves up, but remember it retains water as well.) So it can go down as fast as it goes up.

haha, i'm not sure if that's a good thing

nah i haven't, will keep an eye out!

yeah i could be raising K8. RNG ****ed me innnit

Definitely not folding J9 with bdfd otf vs 1/2 pot

I wanna make it clear that i don't think that the J9 is good! It was a blow up but i wanted to post/give some reasons as to why i think it wasn't soooo bad as a super exploi line

yeah i'm taking 3g per day with my shake. gunna do 3 months on, 4-6 weeks off. Good advice on the water front - i'm so bad when it comes to remembering to stay hydrated. Drank like 2l today and im pissing like a race horse.

that's cus he doesn't send me dick vids ffs

My food intake could/should be higher but i physically find it super difficult. I'm eating healthily and enough but could definitely eat more. Tbh i'm not looking for fast changes to my body, i'm happy increasing in weight/strength/size gradually over time.

Nearly got totally destroyed after yesterdays session. Fortunately made a bit back before the server restart. Playing when i feel fresh is doing wonders for my mental game.



vs the pool whale. aint no one ever holding here



The classic weak reg betting middle card pairing never bluff but can't fold cus strong hand spot



Would really like to run normal for a few sessions in a row as oppose to super hot or super cold! It's a nice change of pace running super hot occasionally though

glgl

this, so much

gl bena keep going at it !!

would fold KQ vs those weak nit pussies that are the 200z regs, esp vs his sizing scheme, make sure that you don't increase the balance of people that only bet nuts

QJ is w/e vs whale, close spot

Haha brutal probably correct though!

Wrt J9s there's no way it's like terrible or anything. We have tonnes of fat value on the turn and we lack natural bluffs. Both Vs ranges are capped, and we block the nut bit that is call/calling 100% (99). Obv we have 4x combos that we can bluff with increased equity, but I think I prefer having the 9 blocker over some of those equity driven bluff candidates that can comfortably play x/call on turn.

Feel like by the responses people just want to play set+ no bluffs on the turn, which might be very correct vs the pool. But if that's the alternative then it's silly to say that your line is a super exploit.

The J9 is very cool and prob quite good, however it sort off sucks that some regs are going to be too stupid to fold. I agree with all of what you said, but for some reason people still pay off here even if you show them straights and sets everytime.

a v v v wise man once told me, "it's only spew if it doesn't get through"

fixd

thanks man!

tyty, yeah the JQ is w/e

haha well it must be spew

Past 2 sessions. I legit ran worse yesterday than months of run bad. Today i spiced off some stack tbh. Will post the most sceptical one.



vs good reg



The probably bad bluff. Low freq 3b pre. Semi reviewed the spot with rough combos and think turn should be a give up at some freq but river shove high freq. Thoughts?



Another unsuccessful bluff vs reg



Things ain't looking pretty atm! Got a coaching session tomorrow - gunna review my first ~28k hands at 200z. Didn't think i'd be like 20bi below ev there already lmao. I'm about 90% sure i'm playing well but let's see what they find in the 10% of doubt



Can't bring myself to playing again today.

glgl!

43dd std

95dd, w-e ott and w-e otr. At 200z I'd imagine checking turn being higher EV though.

76dd yeah why not, wouldn't be surprised though if you get heroed way too often here.

43 x river

95 turn sizing too small, and pre is w/e, would not recommend nor 3bet this pre. river mandatory shove

76 extreme overbluff if you consider value combos , and other potential bluffs that barrel before this, and he probably only has like 8 worse Kx combos by the river that might fold

Why you think 76 is bad bluffcombo here.

if we use bottom of our range as guideline for bluffs the 76 seems fine martim, Im guessing its because you assume hands like AQ or AJ or QJ are shoving river but we could just ship 76s 65s QJs and give up the A highs

The awesomeness of Q/J blockers are diminished for blocking QT JT and small freq of AQ. Still good but not clear if its better than 76s.

AQ better bluff than 67s, like not even close, not sure why you would give up AQ , a much higher ev bluff to be able to shove bottom range, AQ should mix everywhere too
