Also there's a some good story teller at the very high stakes
He have about 3% fold bbtosb. Can you really play with such a range as a part of overall strategy and be unexploitable? seems pretty insane at the first sight
As mentioned in the book, 8 and 7 high boards are pretty uncommon. 6 high boards and lower are just straight out rare. So I don't think it's necessary to worry too much about defending with hands that specifically hit on these types of boards.
I sometimes call 3-bets with low pocket pairs and suited connectors, especially if I'm on the button. Here is an interesting exercise ---
"what hand is better to flat a 3-bet with in the button against a BB 3-bet? K6s or 65s? What are the advantages and disadvantages of each?" Feel free to post your answer to this (and anyone else as well) and I'll try to respond. My guess is most people think 65s>K6s and it's not close at first, but once you find yourself trying to argue the merits of both I imagine your opinion will start to change.
I tend to care less about having a "capped range" than most players and then the longer I talk to them I slowly convince them (this of course doens't mean I'm right though). Unless we're reasonably deep (relative to pot size, not starting stacks) AND there are multiple streets left to act AND my opponent is capable of overbetting I just don't really worry too much about having a capped range. Sometimes you just get a flop, turn, or river that sucks for your range and that's life. If I was worried about my range being too weak on certain flops I'd probably just slowplay more KK hands rather than just AA tbh.
If the SB is min raising, defending near 100% in the BB may be GTO.
