If you are a player who rarely bets big at the poker table, you are leaving a lot of money on the table. Betting big in the right spots allows you to build pots with strong hands when you have them, but it only makes sense to do when the rest of your range can support it.
Mike Brady and Gary Blackwood help you understand exactly when to shovel big bets into the pot in this episode of Upswing Poker Level-Up.

Loved making this ep. Happy to answer any questions ✌

Hi, Gary!

@sureitsdanny Год назад

Would the only J8, 108, and 98 in your range be the suited ones with backdoor flush draws? (On a turn 8 I mean)

@TheTree1 Год назад

I will listen to this one soon but to anyone reading this and playing live 2/5 and below: Overbets on turn & river are almost always thick value. Over fold and you will print.

@mr_aloha1622 Год назад

@@TheTree1 agreed. It’s almost always value, no one is properly using this tactic as a bluff, which brought me to the conclusion that I need to be slamming some pots in attempts to steal, when I have a superior range advantage in certain spots

@BigD751 9 месяцев назад

I use it more as a bluff than value I'd say

Feels great with third pair and u get a fold or even better you get that magic river. Feels bad though when you get sticky and it fails.

@justkyle88 Год назад

We have covered high paired boards(AAx-JJx) for cbets but can we cover mid to low paired boards? Cheers, I’m finding this super helpful

@zekita1 Год назад

Its beautiful the way machines solves the game, I really want to try these ideas, but I know that in my local 1/2 game I would just torch 150bbs and get insta called by a cocky rec on the BB holding A4off on AK722 board, and get that sicko needle "that big of size I knew it did not want to be called" But for real now, this content is gold, listening like 2~~3 times every episode and trying to absorve the most, keep it up

@mbradycf Год назад

The counter strategy there is to tone down the bluffs (but still bluff some)

@chrisko6439 Год назад

Then overbet with your value until they stop calling at which point you start overbet-bluffing...

@justinhart7172 Год назад

You can’t bluff the guy who doesn’t fold so choose wisely

@pokersoftwarereviews5051 Год назад

Yeah I agree with chrisko. If perfectly normal plays like this are analogous to lighting money on fire, your opponent is probably overcalling by a huge margin, and your job as a thinking player is punish them for that with a savageness that would make a typical UFC fighter blush.

Nice, my biggest weakness is not knowing when to bet big ! thankyou.

@tiltvpip1009 Год назад

How does this strategy change in a live environment when open sizes are much larger? Example live 1/3 $300 eff. We open to $15, BB calls. We over bet the flop for $45, BB calls. The Pot would be $120 and we have $240 behind. Are we just over bet jamming the turn in this case?

@garyblackwoodpoker Год назад

A valid question and I think you can adjust your bet size to a pot sized bet so you don't have to play jam or fold on the turn

@joshmullins4849 Год назад

Can you speak a little about what our frequency is when we are using this overbet sizing in particular on the flop? In most spots I know big bet goes with low frequency but in these AK6 type spots I think it is big bet + still pretty high frequency. How far down are we going with our cbet overbet bluffs here? A lot of pure air?

@tiltvpip1009 Год назад

2nd question. In Live play we see many multi-way pots. Is this strategy effective multi-way?

@garyblackwoodpoker Год назад

Yes very much so, you tend to do a lot more smaller betting in multiway pots so you can revert to using 33% or 50% as your cbet size.

@hemispherecompensation 7 месяцев назад

Really enjoyed the SRP strategies. Implemented this twice and made someone fold AX face up on AQJ with 150% flop as a bluff. Second time I did this with KK on AKJ for stacks.

@noahpoll33 5 месяцев назад

I thought they said AKJ was bad to bet big on

What would you do if you 3b from sb with polarized 67ss and flop came 567 where we’re supposed to check but we have value

@williampu899 Год назад

i want to get better at poker but i don't believe in blockers, range advantage, or GTO. please advise.

@SirbySays 9 месяцев назад

@UnderEstimated0Poker 7 месяцев назад

What would the over bet turn sizing be? 125%?

@Camuchoide Год назад

If you're IP on a SRP that comes with AK6 rainbow, you overbet with QJ (bluff) and AK (value), what happens when you have 65s? It's almost a 100% cbet board IP, so if you polarize using an overbet sizing, what sizing do you choose when having nothing? It's not a rhetorical question, I want to understand it.

@ignaciopiedra1598 Год назад

If you have 65s then you should check because your strategy is betting big with a polarized range of strong hands and bluffs. If you want to c bet 100% of your range then you should use a 33% betting strategy.

@zencaser Год назад

My notes from the c-bet video has you saying: Double Broadway Boards: KQ4, AJ6, QT2 - You can down bet or polarized for 75% But you are instead saying that downbetting is "obsolete", at least for Ace double-broadways with a small card? I think I'm missing a nuance.

@lawrenceking23878 Год назад

I’ve seen in early stages of tournaments when we’re deep stacked some players hugely over betting like 2 to 5x the pot. Is that kind of massive overbet size ever advised or are they probably weaker players looking for protection?

@mbradycf Год назад

On the flop they bet 2x pot? It's likely they're weaker players in that case. But I'd wait to gather a bit more info (their preflop open/3-bet size for example) to make the judgement that they're weak.

@pokersoftwarereviews5051 Год назад

In cash games there's definitely flops where you can just stick it in at most stack depths. It's probably not solver approved, but exploitatively it works quite well. For example, if you make a 3-bet with 87s and the flop comes T96 with two cards to a flush on the table, try firing out a small bet and see if you get reraised. Any reraise is evidence that, exploitatively speaking, you need to stick the chips in. The reason is because you're 3-better, so therefore your opponent will likely put you on high cards, which means they're probably thinking that you're jamming with overcards and some kind of combo draw. This makes it easy for the opponent to talk themselves into calling your jam with any set or 2-pair, and you're way ahead of both. Worst case scenario they call with a combo draw themselves, in which case they're only slightly ahead. Not sure about tournaments though. I guess that at normal tournament stack depths you're not really playing a lot of pots with suited connectors anyway, so it's probably a moot point in that case.

@102ravager Год назад

Point about how we shouldnt bet protection in 3b pots logic was a little suspect. If our opponent calls w hands that "would have called anyway" its still good for us to shovel money in w our value hands if opp is calling w worse. Slightly nuanced but still good points rest of vid

@mbradycf Год назад

Yes, betting for value is a better reason. I was specifically addressing the "I need to bet for protection" logic that compels some people to bet in these spots too often. But it's really important to note that our range as the 3-bettor needs to play defensively on these connected flops (in theory). Copy-pasting my response to a similar comment: The overpairs get checked by the solver on those flops to protect the rest of the the range. If you always or very frequently bet overpairs, your checking range on 876 is going to be incredibly weak. In short, you don't have enough strong hands to support both a checking range and a betting range, so the solver ends up checking a huge amount of the time on these types of flops. That said, if you have an exploitative reason to bet -- like you know your opponent is very straightforward and won't put you in tough spots -- betting becomes more attractive. Though I'd still urge you to mix in some checks with overpairs because it tends to lead to some amazing situations and avoid some not so amazing ones.
