Props to Doug. Not for hitting his bankroll challenge, but for having the balls to wear a tank top with that little muscle tone.

2:22:00 GingerPkrDad was trying to have his stream catch up to see what you had to make sure you didn't have the higher straight. He called EXACTLY 4 minutes after you started that A4c hand. Gotta up your delay by a minute or two Doug!!!!

"No we're not playing any Omaha in the bankroll challenge because I want to finish it" lolll

Holy shit... I'm dying. I've never watched Doug stream a session... if it's always this funny, I've gotta check it out live.

Hey Dougie, fantastic stream man, thanks for publishing it, it's really useful. I've watched a lot of your videos, but this has been the moat useful for me. I learnt a lot of things just from watching you play and comparing that against what my own plays would have been. I learnt that you play the cards very well, whereas I have always played the situation and the people a lot more. You don't get tilted at all, even when an opponent sucks out against you. Great stuff. I'm unsure why your opening raise is always roughly 2.5x the BB, I'm always raising 3x to 4x the BB, maybe I'll lower that. I'm also unsure how you work out the percentages for certain plays (e.g. re-raises or all ins) in certain situations, but I shall work that out. Thanks again man, much appreciated.

@billbo9761

4 жыл бұрын

He uses a randomizer for the percentages. If you mean how does he decide the actual percentage to use for a particular hand. I assume he is just making it up on the fly e.g. if he thinks he should be bluffing infrequently in a particular spot he might say to himself he will bluff 10% of the time and then runs his randomizer to see if he will bluff.

@billbo9761

4 жыл бұрын

Also when you say he doesn't tilt, keep in mind he is almost playing play money compared to his usual stakes. Add to that he is being given donations which would pay for any losing sessions he has and finally he's unlikely to tilt while on a stream. That would not be a good look.

@Shawn Mendenall The feds don't give a shit about some dude selling dime bags, and unless it is a national security issue related to terrorism the feds cannot tap your phone for evidence via the Patriot Act. Well... Technically they can tap your phone, but it wouldn't go anywhere in court as the State's (or Federal) Attorney still needs probable cause to receive a warrant from a judge to authorize a tap in order for it to be used in a court of law for a drug case. Otherwise any evidence via a phone tap is thrown out in the court room. This changes if for example you were receiving your heroin from The Taliban or any state entity known to sanction terrorism or something. All of that is permissible.

Hey Doug! First: really appreciate your hands discussion vids and this challenge. I am member of lab, also bought the elite cashgame mastery, but playing nl 50 and i have feeling this content dont applies to this stakes and is only really good for highstakes, for example the sb situations where applying mixed strategy is not working for these stakes, better to raise here , limping is also not so good here. Second: i am also doing bankroll challenge and also playing nl 50 on some site with good rakeback, your advice regarding playing mtts better then cash nowadays is also wrong brcause you can get down like 50-100 buyins without making ft and this would crush your bankroll. Imo its much better playing cash steady way and to get rakeback and to build bankroll this way, also mtts are taking like 7+ hours and cash you can play anytime you want! Gl

This video is from May 2018. LoL. In the chat someone had mentioned "buy Lockheed Martin stock" to Doug. If Doug had listened and bought it the same day, after 2 years he would have made 40 dollars per share until now. So a 10,000 dollar investment would have gotten just about 32 shares. And those 32 shares would have made 1,132 bucks by now +/-. I don't think waiting 2 years to make 11 hundred bucks is good return on 10k investment. Unless you're putting in 100k or even 1mm, that's how you would have made real money. It takes MONEY to make money.

Doug i have question, about the hand. I got AK(o, with K spade). Full ring, UTG was original raiser and it end with 4hand flop ( with only calls). I were in middle position and i called only because it was turbo tight player. And flop fall down AQ9 spade. original raiser raised pot size and only i called with flush nut draw. turn falled 3 heart and he raised again pot size ( so i assumed that he probably have trips or AQ). The question is should i fold with AK or all in ( cause i made the worst decision and only called - river offsuit he jam and i fold, if the spade would fall he would probably check and i wouldn't won more). As expierienced player as you, what is your process thinking about this decision. By the way zoom micro full ring cash game

Doug.. you stress varying play. Why don't you vary the size of your opening raises? Wouldn't that make you more unpredictable? I can see that stressing the other player more because they don't know if 6x bet means AA or 45 suited or the say with a 2x bet means AK or A5.

Hi Doug from Australia

Hello Doug, I have a question in relation to the TT v AK hand at around 35 mins. When we 3b AKo and villian shoves a range of TT+ AK then calling the shove with AKo loses 2bb per hand. Does that mean we should fold or do we call because losing 2bb/hand is less than losing 9bb/hand when we 3b fold?

@MK-13337

5 жыл бұрын

Is your equity calculator showing it from the point of decision or from the equity in the hand overall? If that decision loses 2bb/hand then no we shouldn't do that. That's 200bb/100. But if it says that the hand is -2bb then yes, your decision is +7bb/hand (you lose 2 instead of 9). So I'm not sure and I'm too lazy to get off my phone and boot up equilabs and do the work myself.

@alphabett66

If you fold AK anyone will instant profit jams preflop, that being said, if villains are only putting the money in with Aces you should never call ace king. You have to do MDF/breakeven math from every point to every other point. E.g. Open range; 3 bet; 4 bet; and etc. The formulas for multi variable fold equity calcs are found in the book "Quantum Poker".
