Nice to see some of these small 3bet spots which indeed are easy to overbluff, and seeing ppl like Lena and BenCB adapt proves why they are still on top
Thank you! Yes, ICM included in every calculation. Not much longer than a regular calculation in pio I would say. These were a few minutes for me (mostly because of wide ranges)
In that K7 hand, when someone raise when they are in "ICM prison", it is polarised knowing that hero is very aggressive. When hero re-jam villain can simply fold their air and call with the nuts. QQ would just call in this spot.
Just compare those HS MTT regs lines to top CG reg lines, where those second are pretty close to solver output but the first one's are far away... i guess it's is at least 1-2 lvl's gap between mtt vs cash players.
Just like the comment before says it's muchhh harder to get different stack sizes (including everyone at the table!) and ICM impacts right. Which at the same time leaves more room for exploits
@@jb-rx2ig Not even close, HS cashgames are way more advanced than tournaments can ever be because of 2 simple facts: 1 - You play atleast 100bb deep which makes every decision compound per street if you are wrong and you also keep losing cash and not tournament chips. 2 - Since stacks are allways shorter in tournaments , many situations plays themselfs when you have hands like AQo etc, because you cant fold or you will be to shortstacked, hence more of a lottery and never able to be as sophisticated as a regular cash game.
@@2CardConfidence ive been watching your videos for a long time but in this one you outdid yourself. It was a 10/10 video for both content and entertainment, I really admire your work. Greetings from Brazil!
It depends on how you like to study - I like pairrd better for learning ICM, because for many spots they have comparisons between chip ev and ICM ranges. Also, you get explanations for many spots, which I find even more important in such a complex environment like tournament poker, where the number of situations is almost endless. GTOW is great for quickly finding a similar solution to a spot you want to have solved. But you "only" get the GTO solution and no context.
The breakdown by Ben is fascinating, but l fail to see how checking the flop with K7 covering so much of the board 4 handed against an aggressive player like Romeo is unusual. This is a very common line I see taken live as an exploit against this type of player, as they so often see flop checks as weakness and a chance to play against a perceived capped range. The jam by Romeo is completely unnecessary, only getting called when you're either crushed or stone dead. 3 betting with those stack sizes seems much better, as even getting called indicates strength and can save you on missed rivers. I know we're generally trying to build pots when we have good hands, but against players like this they will often end up doing it for you...
Yeah that does seem tempting, but you need to remember that 1. Those aggressive players will also check raise and barrel aggressively, since they have a large advantage in 7x hands 2. They don't always have air - a large portion of their range simply consists pairs, A high, K high or even 7x, and every time that is the case you on average lose value by checking 3. Even if they do have air, they don't just always blast it off - even here, Romeo had one of the highest equity draws, so it's not like they just hand over their stack every time you trap them. Fwiw, the solver would also slowplay some 7x... but only lower ones and always bet K7. But still, if you have the reads that your opponent will go out of line so much against a seemingly capped range that it exceed the value of betting, then you can of course go for it!
@@2CardConfidence appreciate the response, I think my constant live playing sways my opinion too much towards reads instead of fundamentals like you listed. And a good reminder to bet K7 to get value from weaker 7's and checking lower ones in case I'm crushed and not bloating the pot too much. The inclusion of Ben was awesome, he's a gem. Cheers!!

I really appreciate it, your comment means a lot!
That AQ fold was shocking. You wouldn't see that in the micros
Well put together
Really interesting one. Great job once again ❣
Really nice video format, more of this!
That AQ fold after flatting pre was criminal
Very solid video and editing.
This video is legendary. Amazing job!!!

Thanks man, that's a great compliment, appreciate your comment!
Nice one mate. Good editing.
One of your best videos yet, keep at it
🫡🙏
Top level pros and the avergae NL2 game looks almost indistinguishable to the untrained eye 😂
It is basically NL2 with Matrix reflexes 😉😅
Top level content, thank you
Appreciate it!
Man, this vídeo is insanely good.. thanks for the content
Happy you like it - thanks for the great feedback :)
Super video (as always)
Pretty sick river call.
Such a good video!!!
Amazing video, super fun to watch these guys play, especially when they go off road with these gangster "un-GTO" plays. Nightmare to play against.
I think gto will just be a little accessory as we move forward in time. We aren't robots and shouldn't play like them as much as we try to. Imo
Bencb is a legend of tournaments when i watch his stream it feels like if he can villain’s cards
Absolute legend
your videos are very entertaining sir . Thank you for making these🙂
My pleasure, thank you for your support :)
such a good interesting video
Nice hand
Great format.
Yes. Def top level content. Did you use ICM for the hands you solved at the final table? How long does that take to do in Pio?
Thank you!
Yes, ICM included in every calculation. Not much longer than a regular calculation in pio I would say. These were a few minutes for me (mostly because of wide ranges)

QQ would just call in this spot.
If it wasn't for Bencb to play in this tournament I would say it is a micro stakes game
Maybe it is? Ben used to regularly play the Sunday Storm 🤣
@@2CardConfidence for this payouts, I am in!! 😂
5:54 a smile
;)
It’s great to see someone could win nowadays in the old school way. Romeoro is the beast
I really enjoy your videos! poker hands become more interesting as if they were stories told by an old and wise man :D
That's the goal 🤣 thanks a lot! :)
Top video man, tks !
Thanks for watching!
These guys are in another level
Well made video and nice Bgm.
Thanks!

in favor of mtts you mean right.. different stacksize and with icm it's harder to play optimally
Just like the comment before says it's muchhh harder to get different stack sizes (including everyone at the table!) and ICM impacts right.

@@kristoffernilsson6043 Correct that's why HSMTTers who try to play cash get rekt unless they have a background in cash.
Great to see you cover tournaments!

Do you like GTO wizard or paired better for learning ICM situations?
It depends on how you like to study - I like pairrd better for learning ICM, because for many spots they have comparisons between chip ev and ICM ranges.
Also, you get explanations for many spots, which I find even more important in such a complex environment like tournament poker, where the number of situations is almost endless.
GTOW is great for quickly finding a similar solution to a spot you want to have solved. But you "only" get the GTO solution and no context.
Beat canal ever thank you so much
Thank you man ❤️
What a call with 34
all the pio sims which are shown, are they run with icm?
Yes of course

Man, what a terrible fold from AQ there, if romeo went all in he should call lol.
one of the best poker videos ever published on yt
That means a lot man ❤️
Whats The name of this software?
Which one? The poker software is Pokerstars, the solution software is PAIRRD
top video
That AxQh fold for 1/2 pot is legitimately one of the worst blunders I’ve seen at a high stakes ft
KJs was probably worse.
until you run into the guy with the nuts
Romeo crushes souls so hard❤
Romeopro 👑😎🏆
Can win when you see everyone’s cards it’s pretty easy
just act on instinct and learn their behaviour. there is no one rule to play poker right, everyone plays differently.
3bet ripping turn with a draw is spewy
Lol the avatar face changing make me lost.
romeopro isn’t very studied in the art of being an aggrofish. obviously you gotta call off with trash hands after getting jammed on and suck out.
That play with A4o is a world class pro move.
Which hand is that?
👀

hey this is sponsored content buddy
Nope, I'm just an affiliate partner, didn't get paid for making this
agree, need more clarity about that
Romeo in the legend
RomeoPro is simple goat right now
It’s like messi in football or luca in the nba now
He is beast
The LOL 3bet 3.5 BB over a raise to 2 BB is probably one of the worst moves I've ever seen.
The narrator is correct to say that with icm implication 3bets don’t need to be as large compared to standard chip ev scenario
High level poker. High level content!
BEAUTIFUL COVER and analysis
Really really nice Rome0pro deserve it.
