    Against old live shitters they only have sets and 87dd when they raise the flop. Good fold by Sam though it’s always so hard to make it in the actual spot.

    After rewatching, i dont understand the A7dd river fold. Tight player closing action out if the BB could be suited Kx, Qx and Jx combos (and the 66/44). The Kx would prob be the x-raise flop right? And small c-bet turn to feel out a flush? If he thinks you only have 1 diamond and miss the river then the jam seems resonable. Given that youre ahead of most of the Kx, isnt 3:1 the right price to call here?

    Just from watching him play up to that point, he was so snug no bluffs, an hadn't raised once before that. On the flop I gave him a few flush draw combos, 66, 44, K6s, and K4s. Once the small bet on the turn, I really discounted most of them. That tiny bet is almost always a check when they make the flush. Tbh, even if he did have a smaller flush there, it may have set him up to think I'm very tight and bluff off 2k in a later pot

    So on the Ad7d nut flush fold…I had to rewatch a few times because at first I was completely confused. Could you explain what hands you were thinking he could have? My thoughts are KK, Kx boats and that’s it right? I’d have a hard time folding this, nice play hopefully

  • @BluffaloSam

    Flop was K64 I think, so K6s K4s, but mostly worried about sets. If he turned the flush, I reckon we would've seen a check, or a big bet. Seeing this tiny bet, followed by a large one and the fact that he hadn't thrown in a single raise postflop up to that point had alarm bells going off.

    Nice call. What would he really be repping there to go for such value against your range? Doesn't make sense, so definitely a nice call and I would have sigh called myself. K is also great scare card on the board, so perfect bluff card. If he had AK, just seems too hard to get that much value on that board and I doubt AQ overbet 2x jams K river given the way played. Nice call, thanks for sharing. Good hand for review :)

Something flexible I'm sure since hes been on the road well over a month, maybe with the option to work remotely or something like that but honestly with 5-10 hour sessions almost daily I would wager he quit his day job with a healthy savings. Hes just wayy too good to not do this shit full time.

    Enjoy the vlog. Just an observation but some of the hands you break down and listening to hands you discount your opponent having seems more from knowing what they had than good reasons to discount from their range. I would just ask yourself can you really justify discounting such and such hands during the breakdown if you didn't know what they had?

  • @BluffaloSam

    @BluffaloSam

    8 ай бұрын

    I try my best to explain my thought process as it happened in game, but a lot of the hands I discount is just more intuition from observing how they played previous hands. There are many spots where I'm wrong and I discounted x part of my opponent's range and they just had it.
