Weird overbet also in T7s on turn. Kx should not be folding and tough to get called by weaker.

totally overlooked 1st hand as KJ poked an eye.

I would probably not barrel with T7

I always use my reads (if there's some sort of a history with my opponent), but usually I don't do these funky lines against random opponents.

Yes, my lines are unorthodox, but they work

Also, ppl play horribly vs huge sizing. Their ranges are inelastic.

And tbh, I don't really care about theory that much. I use mainly my intuition, which is quite sharp after so many years observing the population tendencies, and trying all of the possible lines in every spot imaginable.

I do NOT want to say, that my game is perfect. Good players might exploit me hard. But that's the price I'm willing to pay.

Besides I play quite small stakes, so I'm not worried about this.

I've been also playing quite a bunch of games vs good regulars. And they gave me a tough time. I couldn't even beat the rake vs them. But it's pointless for me to study the game vs regs, as I'm planning to maximize my winrate at the moment.

I'm mainly focused on HU PLO+Spins. So HU SnG's are just a practice for me.

Btw, gameflow means a LOT. Even vs recreational players...

Sure but read has to be very strong for that T7s to make sense imo. E.g. if villain is really tight I can see Kx folding often enough or if he is just very loose and we can actually get call from weaker pair etc.

Thanks! And GL!

U play on Stars?

Feel free to shoot me your SN, so we won't play vs each other.

We can study, if you want. It's easy to crush recreationals. But I think it's -EV to battle regs even with 60 % rakeback, as variance is CRAZY.

Not sure if either hand is good enough preflop but probably ok.

Villain should just check flop. Our x-r is perhaps fine. Issue though is that all board changing cards are somewhat nasty as we have no blocker or redraw. Good side is T to block TT. Becomes also bit better in a way when villain almost pots so we can lower SPR more. I would prefer to keep this in flop call range and then aim to raise on blank turns.

I've got plenty of funky/interesting/border line hands.

If you guys want to discuss, I am up for it!

Anyway, there's one guy, who has been 3betting like 50+ % and he's quite aggro postflop. But quite fit/fold too so I can overbluff him out of the pots, once he turns the aggression down.

Also, what do you think of potbetting, vs betting like 80 % as a bluff on paired/flushy boards?

this was vs a recreational. Is it still a shove ott? I think we have close to 0 fold equity and having zero blockers suck. Anyway, x/r is quite wide otf, I know

I sighed on the river.

But the way he played the hand. And the reads I got on him...

It's just hard to valuebet a str8 there. And he reps very very narrow range which I block heavily.

So I figured NOW OR NEVER. Carpe diem!

And I raised.

Villain... snap folded
