Where are you getting these numbers from? Only 1 combo of NFD calls turn? 2 combos of pair+draw?

Sorry, my numbers were obviously rubbish, which is why I shouldn't post from my phone in a rush! Let's try to do this properly:

Assume his 3b range includes at least ATs+, KJs+, then I guess a reasonable flop range for him flatting suited hearts pre and then continuing to the river is:

{A3, A4, A6, A7, A9*} for the nut flush (5 combos)
{KT, QJ, QT, Q9*, JT, T9*, 97*, 76*} for the straight/pair (8 combos)

The * hands are blocked by hero's holding, but I think we should count them as I assume villain is expecting to fold out sets & straights with his river jam rather than small flushes. (?)

So roughly not more than 13 combos on the flop where he continues. Some of those might raise the flop, and I'm not sure if the small flushes jam the river... so even fewer value combos that are jamming river, hence my suspicion that he needs to be very selective jamming a high-card blocker if he is to avoid over-bluffing.

Thanks for the input/corrections. Hope I've done better this time

Ian

Looks more reasonable, although I'd forgotten how tight ppl play here in 6m/fr so was just kinda expecting more Kx/Jx/Tx hands. Btw you can't count him having combos that he can't possibly have.

Weekly update 1

I had another awesome day today and felt great to look at my weekly results.

Graph:



Stake breakdown:



Also made a post in BBV to brag about my pound table results. Kinda hilarious really and i'm sure i'll be getting trolled hard by the BBV regs

http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/54...lenge-1551866/

Other stuff



As i was away for the first few days i can only rate myself for the past 4 days. Meditated 3/4 days, been gym twice and been eating a lot + well. It's always tough to really gauge how well you're playing when you're running super hot but i would have to say that i'm playing my absolute best currently.

The heat i've had over the past 3 days (3k day b2b2b) is something i haven't ever experienced and i can only dream that it continues. Let's push for another sick week at the tables!

Well today i was firmly brought back down to earth with 3 hours of pure misery. Didn't win a hand and lost ~2k. Can't always run like jesus i suppose!

Had a look through the hands and there is literally no hand worth posting. Getting it in vs AA a ton and just having the 2nd best hand.

I guess i got this hand vs a passive fish. Should probably just fold turn but thank you very much for saving me $200!

    Watched the man united game today as it's the first day of the premier league. During the game i had the urge to buy a new goalkeeper top and with smb's help, or should i say peer pressure, i got a right corker. It's a 1998 newcastle kit and if i may say so, i think it looks bloody awesome. Think this is gunna be my new way of wasting money - buying retro keeping tops



    Back at it tomorrow.
