Kiet, heres a little advice for you bud:Don't try to force your hands, when "luck" isn't rplaying with our cards, play super tight and simply win at showdown with the nuts. I know this might sound nitty, but when we're running bad you have to play nitty.
If you could get into some of those games at Lucky Lady where Brian deals that would be a great opportunity for you both. I think you would both be a good fit. Bryan is an excellent dealer btw.
@@KietTheViet It's the worst! Amazingly zero bars of coverage (in a densely packed part of LA), and you can connect to their wifi network, but the internet doesn't work. My table once asked them to reset the wifi, and they said they would, but nothing happened. I hope they fix it. Nice room otherwise!
I think with AJdd on 234dd, I would just 3b all in on flop. You don't have any fold equity but you are basically 50%+ vs any over pair other than AA specifically. With that much equity can just run it.
Oh shit your channel popped up on my feed again! Two years late but I hope you sun run hard, have a meteoric rise and become another Rampage! But a more disciplined version.
Raising the set of 8s is not a bad play at those stakes. People don’t fold. Just unfortunate he def didn’t have an ace. Doubt he would have kept barreling with nothing. You didn’t lose out on that much value
On the "chopped" pot hand, as he gets up to leave he keeps a stack of chips in his hand before pushing the stacks on the table to you. Probably saved himself $60. Slick if it wasn't on camera lol
Cmon doge, you know you have the winner with 10 10 runner runner. that said, what a punt on his part. Your holding the one card that makes sense for him to turn a counterfeit 2 pair into a bluff. Dont play much la poker anymore, this was just such a strange hand all around.
I usually do 1$ if it’s a 100$ and lower, 2$ for 100$-300$ pot, and then 5 or 10 for anything above a 300$ pot. No real math behind it, kinda just feels good to take care of the dealers. Sometimes there’s ppl who don’t tip which pisses me off, so gotta make up for them haha
@@jamisons109it wasn’t the dealer who noticed it was another player. Watch the dealer closely, she is chopping the pot up until the other players point out the queen plays.
AcAh @11:04 $100 preflop. Your raise sizes out of position need to be bigger than if you were in position especially playing so deep. Flop can go either way between betting and checking. Turn is good. River is great and great sizing. Definitely like your logic on the river.
8c8h @10:20 I think this is where exploitative and theoretical diverge. Theoretically SB should call with all Ax. but.. Exploitative.. you don't have worse than Ax often enough for SB to call with Ax correctly enough. You're never turning 22 into a bluff. You're rarely turning 99/TT into a raise here for protection. You're not turning broadway/65/76 into bluffs here at any decent frequency. Maybe he calls down with AK but he was going to get bets in with that, and he might find a hero fold here with that which would be a disaster.
Kh9h @7:06 Flop, you can go between check or bet. Check-raise of this size seems like a must call. Turn is a call. River is a check. Your thought process after though.. Like, you can't just "wait for a better spot". That sounds like a tournament mind-set (which is also bad logic). You have to make good plays and sometimes that comes "readless" with "marginal hands".
Qd8d @5:31 Pre-flop fine, flop fine. Turn is probably close. You could have a ton of Jx (J9o+, J7s+) so it'd be hard for them to check-raise with worse. Seems fine to bet to protect/value here and shut down on river. River is a must call for this sizing. If opponent bet $200-250, then it's close and appropriate to tank. $60 bet is a snap call.
I'd say on the river he should've raised big an taken down the pot. The opps betting is clearly a blocking bet, any big raise would've taken down the pot.
9s8s @3:06 Calling utg+1 here is definitely loose but fine, especially if table is not 3-bet happy. Flop is a mistake. No need to raise here. Not only are you read-less but you just have so much equity to raise/fold (unless it goes 3-bet/4-bet). Also the guy behind you can have 86, 77, sometimes TT, sometimes J8s, T9s, and a bunch of diamond draws that have really good equity.
KK @ 0:57, 3-betting bigger preflop to 280$. flop bet 25% with range. turn is check with your hand, betting 66% with hands like 99, some TT, AK, some AQ. checking QQ/KK/AA, A5s/AJs/KQs. river: betting $200 is losing roughly 10bb (thats a big mistake) It's interesting that he has A6 here. Not because of preflop, that's whatever. Turn should be a bet with all aces. Also your logic is flawed on river. For him to call flop with Qx.. he would have to check those hands on the turn and not turn it into a bluff. Also 88-JJ fold river like high 90% of time. QQ you're getting piled on. Ax is always calling.
