Blockers + turn read = KQ > 66.

But, only hand that got there that goes with ur turn read is AQ (Q9s??), even tho u perceived range is 30% i dont think he goes crazy with AQo so that leaves 3 AQs combos that beats u by the river/not turn.
Its up to how good are ur live reads so we can narrow his range in a better way.
Also, do u think he will play a higher variance game vs you given the soft field(chicken game)? Do u think he realizes this ? This is really important to get a better grasp of his ranges giving his sizings.
Important fact is that probably he is gonna flat AQs if he wants to avoid a big confrontation with u given the field, but if he doesnt think this way im obviously on the call both hands camp and win vs J9s or whatever.

- also how many KQ you peel the flop? I think i will only have 2 combos here and got afraid might be a little bit nitty. But given field + opp+ board i came to that number.

I dont agree that kq>66 here. Blockers will not remove enough of his value range to make it more valuable than having an option to beat lets say 1/2 of his 16 kj combos.

card removal too tho

True, but still got 4.5 compared to 3 plus one random q9s combo lets say, so you hsve 0.5 combo edge. Might be iff here, typing from my phine

Unless villain isn't betting 2p here how can KQ > 66 lol.

Ive seen mtt guys 3b all kinds of offsuit broadways in all kinds of spots.

Even if he only has some % of all broadways 66 is going to be lightyears ahead of KQ here.

Assuming villian 3b all type of things makes both hands even more of a call.

Assuming villian 3b ton of broadways makes it a fold.

I assume a little bit loser 3b range given ops perceived rfi , I have not done the math.

I obviously could be way wrong about this. Interested to know what people think is villian 3b range , here is where we have a difference

Flew back to Budapest with Alevs and European today. We missed the 10k so we could come back and be fresh for Sunday and prepared for WCOOP. Think it is pretty smart idea. Anyway we went out till 8am on Thursday so would have been in no fit state.

Barcelona in general was amazing. I lost absolutely chunks, but that's totally fine. In Monaco I had the famous run bad/end of world melt down. Now it doesn't even phase me at all, I can barely even remember all the all ins I lost. Totally totally totally fine with it, and even if I lost 3x as much money id feel fine

Was very tired today (2 hours sleep last night but forced myself to play a short session so my mind was trained a little for battle tomorrow (Sunday) I plaued 8 tournaments. 3-4 turbos and 3 high stake mtts.

109r - chip leader for long time, ended up finishing 10th
530 weekender - top 5 stack for most of tournament, ended up busting off the money
320 sko - 8 knockouts or something

I changed one thing in my game which I always berated regs for doing but it worked very well. It's kinda painful because its against what I'm
About, but whatever let's try it out. This usually happens with live tourbamebtS. I have a lot of time to think/ponder in between hands. And then try to put it into practice online and generally it's pretty good.

In the end phases of these tournaments I could have probably played a little better with s couple of unnecessary stuff, but generally morale is extremely high after speaking poker non stop for the last ten days with elmerixx and European and having what I think is a good approach to MTTs.

Have a fun hh coming up..

€50k Super High a Roller

Here is a fun hand to share with you guys from the SHR.

I literally just sat down at the table moving from a table with 3 guys who would be the biggest fish in a $10 bar game to a really tough table. Before I even anted I was witness of the longest, possibly strangest and maybe most interesting hand I've been at the table of.


10kbb

Igor 24k utg, timex flats Btn, aggressive polish SHR reg flats bb.

Flop K22ssd (87k)

Igor cbet 35k, timex tank flats, aggressive Polish reg tank makes it 75k out of 150k, Igor tank makes it 135k, timex tank cold calls, Polish reg tank folds

Turn K22Assdc (432k) (tournament average is around 480k)

Igor tank bets 170k, timex tank calls

River K22A7ssdcc (770)

Igor tank bets 150k, timex tank calls

Igor has around 8-900k left on river I think. Timex only has around 500 though I think.

Final pot 1.07m

What do they both have? Actual hand or range is fine.

I have no idea about dynamic or history but I know the Polish guy in the hand New York back raised 55bbs with A5s vs very good reg (top 10 for sure) who 3bc KTcc

What was pretty sick is that for this maybe 14-16 minute hand Timex looked so so focused/in the zone the whole time looking for what seemed like physical things from Igor. Igor similarity was incredibly comfortable and it really looked like neither was phased from this pot and showed that experience definitely helps in these kind of pots (2x tournament average pot) in lots of these hands they don't go to showdown so it's hard to say exactly if somebody impresses you or how they played etc as just because somebody 3bets 17 times it could very well mean he was just on a pre flop heater. Out of all of the guys in the SHR Igor and Mike definitely come across the most comfortable and most self assured guys in the fields.

Anyway back to the hand.

Ranges, guesses of hands.

Wug?

polish SHR reg-Piotr Franczak

Igor: AA/AK/A2s(does he open that?)
timex: Axss
no idea what bluffs could igor have here

I think Igor has aces, but I'm very intrigued by his sizing. Did he really bet smaller on the river than on the turn?
Mike might have something like KJ or Axss that he feels he can't fold at that price.

Igor has AK, timex probably has KQ, potentially some Axss combos but I think less often

I would say Timex has QKss or AK and Igor is polarize to nuts or bluffs.

Timex: a2
Igor: missed spade draw?

Would include Axss and ak in timex range but these would be quick flats on flop and no reason to tank

Timex has a balanced flat range

been following your thread for a while and knew about the 8table rules and as i was bored (not playing) on a sunday, thought ill spend my time watching heros playing. when looked you, the 8tabling rules came into my mind it would be exactly 100times larger than my current bankroll so i thought ill look a bit deeper how youre doing and noticed you were playing more than 8 at the same time )




dunno if the rules only applies to PS tables (wasnt mentioned and would make no sense) but either way keep up the good work are you doing in this thread and at the tables, gl

I was deffinetely hunting u .
Happy i can make 100 bucks with this first post of mine .
Had to actually create the account. Did not knew i did not have one.
Thanks pads!

lol wtf he isn't going to pay out every time he plays more than 8 games you morons.

Igor : AK
Timex: KQ

guy who berates me in here has a lot of heart!
