I’m gonna guess the hand you are CO is a bluff and the b v b hand where you OB turn is value.

Out of curiosity, who is Meek Bill? I’m assuming you know as it seems like a reg battle game.

the 3bP one looks like a bluff and the bvb one looks like value, so i'm gonna guess it's the exact opposite. if i had to guess hands, its exactly JdJh in the first hand and either Q4s or KQs in the second one.

been sick the last couple days, kinda sucks to miss the weekend grind but glad i stopped myself from grinding. Not sure if I could beat 50NL when sick to be honest my game is just really bad when not thinking clearly.
Compared to other jobs where working while not being focused or sick, with Poker it doesent only waste time but is just a super bad financial decision so have to watch out.
Big grind planned for next week tho.

two spicy hands one is bluff, one is value which one is which?



Regarding this 3BP is bluff other one is value , T9s for bluff and JJ for value bvb
didnt check the hands yet
ideas was w T9s on flop to clear out some outs against his barreling range, turn didnt really feel comftable barelling w no equity and river seemed like mandatory bluff
JJ doesent seem like the most obvious line on river but thought he has alot of hands blocking low sets which are main value hands and with that many bluffs possible might be fine probably should have a smaller sizing on river tho for my QQ so maybe should put JJ in that category


No idea if these are good plays yet but my thoughts

Oh hey, I got the bluff/value Q correct. Ya love to see it.
I think I would probably use the smaller sizing OTR with the JJ hand that deep, but can understand the reasons why you’d just get greedy there and go for it all. I’d also trust your instincts over mine. lol
Have been very sick the last week as well and noticed how impossible it makes it for me to play volume too.

Well Stefan doesn't have leads on JJ7 so when he does i would make the assumption that hero has to rajse AA, KK,QQ, Ajo, Ak, AKs etc etc. So when IP calls then he is essentially capped at JJ, TT, AQs and some AK

Then when turn goes check check, (ak/AQ has a 100% check) essentially IP gets to the river with literally Ak, AQ and a small amount of AA. OOP gets an insanely profitable bluff or valuebet.

It's quite a sneaky play to determine whether your opponent is playing a strong GTO strat.

When Hero just calls, then all of a sudden the game tree that is 10s, Q10s, Jx etc.

Basically Hero only has like a very small amount of AA here , AKs and AQ.

So for all of the reasons above, Hero should have raised the donk bet OTF or folded.

If i were to bet my left nut sack i would say Stefan has Q10cc, Q10hh or Q10dd, AJhh, Ajcc and some QQ.

A large reason why I think stefan wins so much in the red line is due to his ability to figure out how well players are playing when he deviates from GTO and their range becomes more face up by the river. Hands like this essentially tell you that your being exploited or he is trying to exploit you.

I think hearing your explanation of the hand would be interesting.

only 120 deep but probably also 4betting 160 so you might be on to something

just a different game imo if you grinding 12 tables or smt

Yea dont agree with this but I am sure you have your way of thinking and thoughts so wont argue
think I dont play any raises on flop so will have full continuing range; on turn no need in protecting that much since there are basically no cards which are scary for me so will play mostly check but can see the benifit of adding small bets
Also think your preflop ranges are not in line with mine
but can definetly agree on that he left me feeling very lost

Yeah I think what you could take away from all of the above is that the solver has a 100% check on JJ7 OOP. So when he starts to have a leading range you need to know how to adapt/why. Razer thin edges in these games and the bread and butter is in the 4bet pots .

How you doing results wise in these line ups? Having youmadbro and gonzo on either side of you wouldn’t have been too fun. Do you think you have an edge vs these players? Or are you doing it more for your poker progression? Fwiw I think Greg battling at times might me -ev in terms of $ but in terms of sheer life experience and the expected value of your progression I think it is a necessity. A lot of people seem to disagree with me on this.

Yoyo doing quite well but obviously don't have the biggest sample size only playing wpn games since this year really.

As far as i know gonzo is not that strong especially compared to the rest.

Agree tho that reg battling definitely makes you sharper and to some extend is good for you even when it's -EV also it's just fun tbh 3 handed js more fun than 6 handed anyway especially if you feel like battling
