For the record, do you think he should call A8 in hand 4 when you had 8h6h? Would you call in his spot (because, as you guys mentioned, "nobody bluffs there"?)
Can tell that Jared is thinking about the game at a much deeper level than population and has put the work and hands in, i do not understand enough theory (not through lack of trying lol) to confidently make any of these plays but i would not argue with what he is saying, seems like a top bloke too, good show Nick pal !
This is definitely the sentiment I have too. If I saw these hands out of context I'd be convinced he's a whale but the justifications make a lot of sense to me! Thanks for watching.
MDA player on PONP, noice, love it. And he brought pure absolute spaff balls on as well, even better. Hand 1 is really good, for MDA reasons. Hand 2 I have no idea, seems close. Probably a punt with BU behind. Hand 3 is a pure spunk jizzer cream pie of a punt call just cos better hands could actually bluff here like 4x. Hand 4 is an insanely high level adjustment picking that River sizing, I think in conjuction to the Flop sizing you have to use that sizing to make it profitable. Also fits in to the point you make in the next hand where you talk about bluffing with no removal you use smaller sizings, it is funny you dismiss it in this hand but in the other hand it's really great, but the overfold is probably similar, and as he said he is making exploitative adjustments due to pool X/F too much and not X/R enough vs X/Y sizing, and even poor removal will not make up for pool's weaknesses. Hand 5 is fucking mental, but I think specific to that exact spot is really good bluff and good combo selection, also added to some secret MDA stuff regarding the Turn, on the face of it, looks punty but in a pure vacuum it is one of the best bluffs I have ever seen and only when I stop to think about it I admire it. Think Jared wins 3-2 in my book, Redline players have to stick together.
Another very interesting and informative video. I'm off to incorporate what I've learnt into my poker game....... A short while later....... Well I've dusted it all off haven't I
Late to the party on this one...Great video! Really love the discussion around blockers, until ranges narrow down in certain spots, (un)blockers often gets over used as an easy throwaway comment without the proper theoretical understanding.
Does anybody know how to say fancy play syndrome.? Though I really like his King high call against the aces full. I mean that in full sincerity. My experience is population doesn’t bet like that with weak aces up.
Haha, I knew the flop call was bad. Like I said at the end, I slightly misread the board. But I had to sell it! Notice me saying folding is fine on flop. Haha
Interested to know how the players at 2k NL on the American sites like Ignition compare with the regs at 2k NL on Stars in Europe? Assuming the games on Ignition are much softer, anyone know?
I think you went too easy on him in hand 1. Opponent's 1/2 pot river donk on a terrible runout for his range looks like a purple tag to me. So he's basically trying to bluff a purple tag off top pair lol. How is that not a punt...
