Lol, all high stakes players in the world(and even danmer himself) probably agree with me that it was one of the nut worst combos (if not the worst) to bluff the river with: he massively blocks villain's folding range.

If he had a read that villain was overfolding he could even bluff with A2-A5dd before this combo and even those are bad since they block AdXd which is a big part of villain's folding range, but at least they don't block 98dd/8Tdd/78dd on top of that.

Don't need to play highstakes to know some play are just terrible, bro.

Not having a SB 3betting 15-25% makes a much bigger difference than you think.

as mr polk said in a video, sometimes your bluff combo isnt the best bluff combo, but you got to to bluff it sometimes if you want to win the pot.

Mans advice is hot.

I don't know why you are all sucking danmer's balls, do you guys really think that was a good play too? I don't blindly accept a play as good just because some guy that plays 100x higher than I play did it, because it could be a mistake, high stakes players still make bad plays. And I posted here because from my studies(6-max ranges) pio bluffs close to 0% in there.

And he linked pio making that jam 15% of the time as a justification for his jam when he very likely:

A) Didn't know the % pio jams
B) didn't RNG anything close to that
C) barrels turns with Axdd more than pio does, leaving him with way more Axdd otr.

And pio bluffs those 15% only because it has clairvoyance over each player's strat, so it has to make some bluffs with Ad/8d so it won't overvalue calls that unblock those cards*. Danmer's opponent will never be able to catch that tendency ever.

Sure that there are some spots where Ad could be a strong call, like when a player uses his blockers to balance his checking ranges (betting TPTK for value when blocking busted FDs and checking unblocking those), making more sense to add some Ad combos to tje bluffing range, but it's very unlikely that each player will know that much about each other's strat even after 100k hands.

There's a limit on how humans can mimic pio and if you bluff that combo you won't be able to control your frequencies.
