7:55 unless you are dead certain of your read, that should be a call. I'm not ruling out deaf certainty, you are good with reads. Sometimes you do just know. But when you're uncertain, that's a calling hand. You only have to catch him one time out of five to break even. I'm glad you feel justified in your time off and not apologetic. Cranking out content isn't your job, keep enjoying us and we'll keep enjoying you! I did miss you, but I survived 😅
Well played with the 10's hand, sometimes you just have to listen to your gut more but the KK no one would blame you for a call there. Good to book a win.
Back in the day no one folded KK pre and no one was afraid to get all the money in, and just chalked it up to a cooler if they ran into AA. Just shows how the skill level even even at 1/3 has changed. Now even aggressive maniacs can fold KK if you don’t widen your 3 and 4 bet range
It’s funny how opinions change over time. When I first started watching your videos I thought they were boring. But over time I’ve come to appreciate them and your style of play. You represent a a solid player with an understanding of good poker. What I feel is boring is idiots with unlimited money playing high stakes on hustler and other programs like total nubbies pushing money in and hoping for the best.
Thanks for seeing the good in boring lol. My style is not flashy. My goal is to help low limit players enjoy the game more, winning or not losing your ass makes the game funner. I've gotten a lot of feedback over the years from people who have struggled with the game finding enjoyment again. Crazy big hands on live streams do have some Entertainment value that my vlogs don't, but I can live with that.
AA vs KK; I think that the preflop 4bet is mandatory (despite the read), as it eliminates most other holdings that you struggled with on later streets, and also makes his 5bet validate your read for an easy and less costly preflop fold.
is 4:15 a clear fold? could be a busted flush draw (although unlikely) or JT which you beat. He could also be betting a weaker Ax although he could have some Ax that hit two pair. I suppose you lose to 75, 87, 67 which are all in his range but 75 doesn't seem like a limp call hand generally, 87 and 67 are definitely likely but there's only two combos of each suited.
could be wrong depending on how loose he is + another caller behind you but you do have 1:4 pot odds to make the call as well so only need to be right 20% of the time.
If you're frequently folding kings, you better be REAL sure. But you did seem real sure with this guy. Were you this sure after you saw the hand, or were you really that sure in real time playing the hand. It's close, but can't blame you for calling the 100 on river.
