He perceived my range as bluff heavy. Good reg NL200-NL1k but he cbet to much sth like 76% Decided to bluffraise from flop. I only wonder if the river bet is not too thin.
The other question is what to do with bottom of your top range for ex QJ-KJ. I would also x/r QJ+ on flop but turn is tricky. I think its still a value bet turn but river is x/f because he is not going to bet worse, and call with worse.

I didn't noticed any bluffs from him but he was sooooo polarized with this bet after this line that I had to call... Unfortunately he showed QJ but still think that this call was fine. Especially when I decided to bet turn for value.
Decided to post here sth like "the biggest mistake of the day". I will try to do this everyday. For today the winner is.........

He's a good reg so he knows that I think that everything is busted and he has only few 7x in his range after calling sqz that's why he can bet huge here. Someone can say "yeah but everything is busted so why not to x/c here?" because he would bet backdoors and flush draws from to flop, so he doesnt have any! :( showed 77
"The other question is what to do with bottom of your top range for ex QJ-KJ. I would also x/r QJ+ on flop but turn is tricky. I think its still a value bet turn but river is x/f because he is not going to bet worse, and call with worse."
ReplyDeleteDon't play 1 street poker - that's my comment on turn. And as for the river I think it is very hard to have a check-calling range after your line and board run out so if you check that river villain should bet a lot of hands with weak SD.
So I dunno as for this opponent but overall your thinking process is somehow flawed from my perspective, and I even made a post about something similar on my blog http://wafflecop.blogspot.com/ (in Polish, ale jeszcze tak dawno temu nie wyjechałeś :P)
As for QQ hand - I would bet bigger on the turn, and you need to ask yourself if that guy can show up in that spot with ~Ax or 44
"f you check that river villain should bet a lot of hands with weak SD. " what villain should do and what villain does = that's a big difference ;)
DeleteI like to play one street poke sometimes. It's pretty simple to bluffraise a lot on flop vs weak players and give up everything after getting called.
I present totally different style not based on GTO. I understand the concept of whole range building etc I just don't agree with it. Prefer to just play max EV all the time. Unbalanced lines/sizings. Maybe I will die on NL2k but for now it works perfectly.
You don't get it :)
DeleteIf you know what villain does => easy game. If you don't know then if I'm check-raising that flop with TP and this turn hits I'm more concerned to get to showdown. What good it is to bet one street, get called by worse good amount of the time, and check-fold next street?
I totally agree with 2nd paragraph. And for 3rd you don't know what GTO means, and I would argue about highest EV since you don't do math :p
BTW I found your phone number in my contact book :D
Ok now I get it.
Delete"BTW I found your phone number in my contact book :D" - wtf?
"And for 3rd you don't know what GTO means" - For me it's creating best play without taking villain's tendencies to consideration. Creating optimal strategy that can not be exploited. If Im wrong explain it to me.
I'm not going to argue about he math :D since I don't give a shit about it.
Michał C. SOEK +48696...130 was WTF as well :P
DeleteGTO in short: getting highest EV with whole range, whole "you got to x-c some % of the time" is bullshit, and not let villain develop a trivial counter strategy.
