hand 2 the flop shove is bad, I assume the thought process is "help scary board lets shut it down" but the problem with this is you now influence his range negativley, as in he calls you with the top (hands that are in good shape vs you) and folds the bottom (hands we're in good shape vs) admitedly we make good money whenever he folds (which he will often) but we can rarely get it in crushing once we have over-jammed. Your 3bets are big also, I think you can make them a bit smaller and show similar profits. with a big stack near the bubble you wanna be really putting pressure on the "mid" stacks, stack that have like ~25big blinds, someone opens with that stack size on the bubble and you 3bet? what are they going to do? they dont really want to be piling 25big blinds in without a v strong hand and they are a bit to shallow to be peeling profitabley, so a lot of the time you'll find them folding hands much closer to the top of their range Title: Re: Conversion Post by: WPIL on April 25, 2011, 01:00:49 PM Is the 3 bet too big on both hands
Raising by 1100 with the AQ and maybee no raise with the Jacks or just 1700 Action on the flop with Jacks from Hero on that draw heavy board? cheers Title: Re: Conversion Post by: SuuPRlim on April 25, 2011, 01:06:11 PM Is the 3 bet too big on both hands Raising by 1100 with the AQ and maybee no raise with the Jacks or just 1700 Action on the flop with Jacks from Hero on that draw heavy board? cheers yh 3b too big on both r.e the jacks play OTF hand 2 the flop shove is bad, I assume the thought process is "help scary board lets shut it down" but the problem with this is you now influence his range negativley, as in he calls you with the top (hands that are in good shape vs you) and folds the bottom (hands we're in good shape vs) admitedly we make good money whenever he folds (which he will often) but we can rarely get it in crushing once we have over-jammed. Title: Re: Conversion Post by: WPIL on April 25, 2011, 01:08:10 PM On the flop
(excuse my ignorance!!) Title: Re: Conversion Post by: SuuPRlim on April 25, 2011, 02:27:13 PM On the flop (excuse my ignorance!!) oh man actualy I just seen the stack sizes for the JJ hand, yh very arkward now cos the pot is ~6k with 10k back in stacks, I think id bet ~2.25k or something and snap a jam, problem there is that his range is hilariously strong to call a 3bet off 26big blinds and jam over a flop bet, you'rel literally never in good shape unless he has TT which people will show up with here from time to time. Still pot is too big to bet fold, chk folding is unthinkable so i think id lean towards a small bet which MIGHT encourage slightly lighter jams (if he actually has any hands that he can jam lighter on this flop) maybe he might jam JT or something if you bet small but we're being optimistic now. I think either not 3betting/3betting much smaller to try induce some sort of preflop spazz out or just jamming preflop might be the better lines - jamming pre makes you're hand look a lot like Ax or 66/77 that stuff like 88-TT + AJ/Kq might flick a call in. you're line in this hand really does manipulate his range negatively imo and makes the top of his range much easier to play for value and the bottom kinda easy to fold. |
