What do you think about the hero's turn call facing an overbet? Bonus question - What would you do on turn with 88 or 99 and why?
I think the 6k bet makes me think he’s is maybe leaving some back to play. Villain is not risking whole stack. I think a 10 or a K jams.
99 and 88 block a lot more bluffs than value, such as A9s A8s, 98s, 87s. Pure folding AQo on turn. What's really curious is the small cbet sizing on flop. I believe this is a spot where 3bettor is supposed to actually overbet flop at a high frequency since this board is very polarizing. This puts our QQ and JJ in a shitty spot, and prints money with bluffs by folding out a huge portion of our calling range.
It's a good call if hero has the right read on the player. Absent of a read on the villain, it's a fold.
I've grown to appreciate these higher stakes call ins because they're more difficult. Very easy for us all to say easy fold at something that may be trivial low stakes but this actually makes you think. Good call in and good caller I'd say and props to him for this call.
Just because you win doesn't mean you played it well. This is an easy snap fold on the turn. I will say though once you make that mistake and call the turn it's a pretty easy call on the river.
I was the caller -
I know I contradicted myself saying I wasn’t going to fold on the turn and would’ve folded to a jam potentially.
I was navigating a huge pot with Ace high, it’s possible I would’ve folded to a jam on the river but unlikely.
First call in I’ve done - stumbling over my words a little bit
Did you accidentally scoop the pot in game? Not realizing it was a chop? Haha
@@AFA567yugioh it wasn’t a chop, he had 8 high
Would you bluff river if villain checked or would you only use spades?
Hey Christian, assuming you misspoke, but seems like a K river is not a good card to see if you think V plays so many combos of KQo, KJs this way? Offsets the removal for AK, no?
Who cares what it sounds like? You’re scooping a big pot. Great call dude.
That’s why I love poker! Hero calling at high stakes is profitable. Hero calling at $1/3 in this spot, villain will turn over AA or AT 99.9999% of the time 😅
Fold all day at 1-3 😂
Fold pre flop to a 5x 3B at 1-3
Yeah, ....so I guess you got it all figured out, huh?
I play a 1-3 $1k max 75% match the stack game in Texas. This game is attended by several European pros in addition to solid regulars who often find creative opportunities to bully smaller stacks after buying in for $3500. Hero calling in nearly this exact spot is something I've done before at this game profitably.
@@dalewike856 yes he does
The caller is a thinking player and shouldn’t be worried about taking a shot. A lot of balls.
Wow what a sick call by the hero , and the best part is he earned respect after
11:09 not on board with hero’s logic of liking the K river.
Sure it cuts AK down to 9 combos from 12 and KK down to 3 combos. But you now lose to KQ, KJ, KT.
And as pointed out later, hero now chops with any Ax.
check TH-cam every day at 10am for these videos love it
SICK!!!
Lotta heart all around in this one!
Great call
Just from his assessment on the river, I can tell this dude is far above my skill level, and I am grateful to be able to witness these call ins. Soon as that K comes in I become scared for no reason, the reality is that it does remove some AK holdings from his hand and if he had it, we were behind the whole time.
Sure, he goes from 12 to 9 AK combos, but he just outran us with any KQs or KJs. I think he has 2 KQs and 3KJs. This goes up a lot more if his range includes KQ off or KJoff. And if you are calling AQ on the turn, you are more or less deciding that he has lots of bluffs in his range So.... When he has a wide range that includes bluffs, this is a BAD river. What makes this river decision so hard is that while the K was a bad one, if his bluffing range is very wide, you still have to call.
While the focus of this was Hero's choices, can we take a moment to recognize that Villain punted off $10K because he decides to get cute, and Squeeze with 8/7-suited in the SB (defending his $10 blind)
Lot of time it works tho
@@mrhumble2937 He's going to need his preflop 3bet to get through the next 50 times without losing to recoup the money he lost in this hand.
lol i wouldn’t call it getting cute. he’s supposed to play 3b or fold from the blinds and is playing aggressive deep stack poker. stick to nitting up in 1/3 my friend 🫡
@@souljah8720 and you're so sophisticated in high stakes!
‘Flop is ten, ten, ten rainbow.’ Seems a little redundant 😂
15" POKER HAAAAARRRRDDD
Not in some games.
This is some high level theory shit right here. Nice call in.
I know some people will say that the hero just wanted to call in and share a brag hero call. But that was def a very interesting hand. Hats off to the hero…
Btw, I live in Phoenix but am still currently banned from TSR. Working on getting that ban lifted. 🤞…ps - don’t do heroin.
Fascinating hand.
Over complicated hand caused by greedy aggressive humans.
lol this table is me on vacation and the pros are kind enough to open a seat for me, fun call though.
& he snap called 🤣sick call
I’m relatively new to the game but does AK from the villain overbet on the turn? I thought when u overbet ur supposed to be polar. But AK feels like a middle strength hand on this board
it is polar. Preflop action means both players should have a lot of pocket pairs, so an overbet is any 10x, aces, kings, and then high equity bluffs which are gonna be hands that can improve a lot against opponents range. So if V is against jacks and queens some % of the time, AK has some equity against those holdings, and some fold equity when taking a large sizing given preflop action
AQ of spades calls the turn more because you block a 2 combos of quads which could be AT and QT of spades
Why not J10s?
I would like this villain too lol seems like a fun guy 🍄
I'll be friends with anyone that punts 10k my way too... I'll even buy them lunch
@@spaffron4285 yeah punt off then say nice call and mean it, what a great guy
@spaffron4285 It’s not a punt if they don’t call and my money says 99.9% you wouldn’t have in caller’s spot.
It’s easy to criticize plays like this when they fail because they look silly. But this guy isn’t a regular at these stakes for no reason.
@@joshmullins4849 it's not spew if it gets through is correct
Loved that call.. for me it depends on my opponent here. I would snap fold the turn to some and call the river to some opponents considering their situation at the moment and previous history. Same goes with 88/99 ✌🏻
I hate the "I can find a better spot mentality" most of the times it's used, but that's so true on the turn here. Like, cool if he's firing a wild bluff with AJ, good for him, but I don't put in money when I lose to bluffs. Why would I?
11:59 don’t love this river, chopping with AJ etc and now losing to KQ,KJ etc
Yeah me neither and those blockers paranoid is like a virus in poker players mind imo
Yeah hero is chopping with villain’s Ax turn bluffs and losing to and Kx. Basically hoping to get shown QJ.
yummy, delicious victory.
You CANNOT believe the callers---
At 10:03 he says, "I actually made up my mind, and I wasn't folding the river in this spot."
At 17:56 he says, "On the turn I did most of my tanking, and my plan was to fold to a shove."
turn decision vs river decision dummy
Hindsight is 20 20
maybe he was telling us the history of the process of his mind?
Great example of bankroll management. Both players knew they could afford to lose.
Surprised there was no assessment at all of what bluffs villain could have here. Shouldn’t we be counting bluff and value combos to determine what to do?
Aside from saying “there are a lot of bluffs”, there was no discussion of what they are. Are there a lot of bluffs?
I’ve got 87s, 98s, QJ that you actually beat by the river and a few chops…
Bart even seemed shocked that villain had 87s so to his mind what are the “many bluffs”?
The reason why spades are so much better is that AsQs blocks ATs and QTs, which should be more than 1/3 of Villain's quads. He only has ATs,KTs (depending on the real river suit),QTs, JTs and T9s, so blocking 2/5 combos helps.
As played, the river is truly horrible because Villain could bluff two streets with KQo and KJs, also we chop with low suited Ax which are now his main bluffing combos. 54s/78s/89s/QJs are the only hands we beat here if he even 3bs all his suited connectors. A5s/A4s and maybe A3s/A9s are very reasonable bluffs for the villain here.
AsQs is a pure call on turn cos it additiinally blocks AsTs and QsTs
A pure call to a computer 😂 shut up you nerdy robot
Really? Does it block AK, KK, KT, JT, KQ, KJ, AA, JJ, 99, 88, 77?
No it's not, AsQs is a mix on the turn.
It doesn't block jackshit
@@mr.anfieldfootball it does
AQss doesnt block backdoor bluffs but idk how relevant that is on a trips flop
This hand is one that I as a fledgling student of the game just can't wrap my head around. Why someone with a suited connector would go passed the flop when clearly the odds are against him pairing up and clearly the odds favor his opponent of having a pair or the 4th 10, much less attempting a large bluff. I guess its all relative if you're banked well enough to play at these stakes in the first place, huh. Not to mention hero's play.
What you said makes sense but he faced a 4 bet on the flop that was only called by the hero, so villain knows that the hero does not have AA, KK, QQ, or JJ because those hands would have 5-bet. And then when three tens come on the flop, you have to believe that someone didn’t just flop quads on you. Villain put hero on two broadway cards which was correct, but hero played it just a little bit better
@@shashuhyou have no idea what you're saying
@@joncorb540 do you have anything insightful to say or that’s it
@shashuh learn what 4 and 5 bets are because you're misusing the terms.
@@joncorb540 sorry 3 bet and 4 bet lol. you know what I meant

It wasn't monotone?
So, caller is shot taking, on a Tuesday at $10 - $20 - $40 and announces, "It's about 7 handed, it's all pros..."
Bart: "Is this an uncapped game I assume?"
Insert me in Bart's chair: dial tone...

😂😂😂2:17
Is a bluff shove on the river ever profitable? Giving the villain such good pot odds that he feels it’s only value?
what better hands are folding? 88/99 ? villains bets already polarized. Now of course I don't play these stakes but I feel like that it wouldn't be a good candidate to raise jam river. almost no villain anywhere is taking this line with 22-77. Now of course, if villain checked the river, then thats a greenlight to jam to fold out all those cards.
@@danielsoochan3810 I think the river bet is pretty polarizing. I think the villain would’ve played this hand the same way with any pair 77-JJ and maybe QQ up until the turn. A shove almost definitely gets him off those holdings a good percentage of the time. But I agree with the hero that AQ is just the perfect bluff catching hand here given that he blocks a lot of what the villain is doing this for value with.
@@danielsoochan3810 you could maybe get Ax hands that you’re chopping with to fold.
If he says “in this spot” one more time I’m gonna
Preferring A/Q over pocket nines on a 10/10/10/6 board is absurd. Definition of overthinking. You have a boat. Sure you’re scared a broadway card comes on the River… but so what. You’d prefer A high over a boat with one card to go?
U didnt listen his logic behind it?? With 99 yes you have full but JJ+ have u drawing dead . Holding AQo make it less likely we are up against QQ and AA and we have outs vs JJ through KK including another ten landing on board giving us nuts. Add to this that villain is Loose Aggro and knows what he is doing so he will at least some of the time try to barrel us off with range advantage cause we would mainly 4bet QQ+AK so we most likely dont have it . We most likely calling down with case ten or lesser pairs than QQ up until the river
Other than AK, what else does villain have given the line that 99 beats that AQ doesn't? I think you're underthinking, given the situation, A high is almost as good as a boat, but actually has outs to improve to beat some of his value bets, where 99 does not. I would say they are about equal value in this situation.
@@timditmer9549 I don’t think I’m under thinking. A/Q is drawing dead to literally ANY pair. If the river comes A or Q great! But that’s 6 outs… I understand what you’re saying. It’s not illogical. That said it’s like the saying goes. One in the hand worth two in the bush. Id take a made boat over a 6 outer. Also can’t we use your logic in inverse? JJ+ has you drawing dead sure. BUT on this board any king or j has you dead anyways. What if he has J/Q? K/J? A/J. If villain is holding an ace. My point is you have two options. I have a boat. 10s full of 9s. I’m only losing to quad 10s. JJ, QQ, AA or any King. So yeah. With one card to go I’d prefer to have the made boat and hope he doesn’t have JJ+ or a K. You have to effectively dodge a broadway on the River. Under your logic you’re behind and LOSING to literally ANY pair or 10… and you just have to pray you nail 1/6 available Aces or Qs???
I usually make many friends at the table and be welcomed back to play all the time after making big call-downs. wonder why.
The reason AQ of spades is sometimes a call on the turn is because it blocks ATs
EZ shove turn if you plan on calling anyway
Lol and folding out all opponents air bcs we simply are scared of being outdrawn or what is the logic behind it??? Being most likely snap called by JJ+ and case ten
This is why it always gets on my nerves when he says "there are no bluffs here". Bro...peoples egos bluff WAY more than GTO would ever allow.
In that’s spot I rather have 88 than 99 specifically because people love 3 bet J9s A9s even some K9 as bluff
Should it not be more relevant that he chops with Ace x? Not saying I would be able to realize it in these big stakes at the river but I think its relevant
OMG how does villain not jam the river?!
I'm confused, why was it never talked about that the villain could have a 10?
Prob the overbet on the turn
3k bet is so obvious he wanted you to fold
I had him on 7 9 suited
after this hand i wouldn't be able to fold to this guy
Vs Loose Aggroplayers with range advantage on this board who will try to represent QQ+ whole way cause they realize u woulda 4bet those but they actually have wide 3betting range stationing AQo makes a lot of sense although i think King isnt the best card to do it cause i think best barrels are actually with overcards to tens including AK trying to force folds from pairs which are most likely calldowns. But on the other hand he also knows you almost never hit a king bcs of lack of AK(4bet range)and most likely you arent calling down king highs on two streets. So thinking player should definitely jam QQ or even JJ on river for thin value. Interesting hand and dynamic . Kudos for balls to call and being somehow right. I would have fly over the room with my proud after such hand and talk about it to my grandchildren at senioral age
It can't be correct that everything that calls turn also calls river, because the villian would have no river bluffs at equlibrium. The bottom of hero's range on river is going to be AQ and the lowest pairs he calls turn with. On a K river calling AQ and folding the lowest pairs seems right, because of AQ blocking AK - which is the most likely hand villian has if value betting
jam river, jam everywhere you can. would he call w A5, QQ? odds are awesome but anyone would bluff this? naah
If you have a pocket pair and trips flops like this does, it is RARE that I will fold a boat unless I have this person pegged on being a mouse or an absolute rock. No way do mice/rocks bet 2 streets of value like this without those bigger pocket pairs (or the case 10), but other aggressive players have PLENTY of bluffs with AK, AQ, etc. I would almost rather have 88 or 99 in this spot on the flop than AQ or AK because it gives them MORE combos to bet aggressively. On the river, It's a toss up but I think I might prefer AQ here to block him having AK, but still him betting on the river looks valuish to me.
Still, having a live read on somebody is HUGE and if her perceived the villain to be putting him to the test he can safely call without risking the whole stack.
I don't see why AK would jam river? It should not jam for the same reason why betting $6000 would almost guarantee a call.
Fold or 4 bet pre. AQ. Isn’t a hand we want to dust off 300+ BB with
Vs Loose-aggro player its never a fold but a mix of calling and 4betting
How is this fella playing 10/20/40 and not realizing he chops with any other ace on the river? I feel like this play is a punt overall. Turn needs to be a fold.
Give him all the combos of 98s, 87s, A5s, A4s, Big pockets, AK, AQ, KQ. We are behind most of his hands and chopping with his A high bluffs. We literally only beat QJs and low suited connectors (excluding 65 and 76 which beat us). If he's a solid player he's probably only bluffing his suited connectors with backdoor flush draws AND a gutterball like 87 and 98, maybe QJs as well but he might do more checking with 2 overs.
Once we get to the river, I feel like AQ might still need to fold?
Again, we are beating exactly 78s, 89s, and JQs. Only 9 combos of these hands have backdoor flush draws. He probably isn't 3! 87s and 98s OOP at 100% frequency, and we block one of the combos of QJs with BDFD. So we are beating 8 combos assuming he's 3! those hands at 100% and bluffing off all BDFD, losing to 3 combos of AA, 3 combos of KK, 3 combos of QQ, 6 combos of JJ, JsTs, QsTs, AsTs, Ts9s, 9 combos of AK, we even lose to low pockets or 65/76 if he decides to turn those into a bluff to get us off of QQ, JJ, 99, etc. It's hard for us to have AK, KK, or AA given that we just flatted. We are absolutely crushed by his range here on both turn and river, and the fact that we chop with A5s/A4s, AJs, and AQ on river is absolutely brutal. We lose to some of his bluffs and all of his value, we chop with some of his bluffs, and we beat a tiny sliver of the combos he makes it to the river with. Unless we have a specific read that villain tends to overbet with bluffs and go thinner for value or he has some tell we caught that he's weak, this call down is going to be absolutely lighting money on fire in the long run.
Bart didn’t even realize it was a chop either and he plays way bigger than me lol , you’re thinking about this way too in depth. This was a live read / feel call down. Sometimes it’s necessary
I think once he made that turn call, and when the K comes it’s harder to fold then given the pot odds.
@@christianmook9702Well done man, way to stay in the moment. Cheers and blessings 🙏.
The size of testicles on this gentleman… I’m a profitable lower stakes player but this is a prime example of why I’m absolutely not ready for this kind of game.
Isn't the whole point of shot taking to do it when a game is good? Why shot take into a game of all pros?
Cause they will bluff off 10k with 87 suited compared to low stakes where you have to wait for the nuts ten times to get paid off enough to make that much
Yo this aint street poker its straight prison poker son!
Irrespective of the result or how the hand was played, why is hero taking a shot at a game filled with pros?
Because i am also a pro
Leveling up into tough competition, granted often is fraught w/peril, but sometimes to get up into these stakes it's the Only realistic was to move up... because it's the only games available...
It depends on region & game availability, occasionally this the main option....
@@patrickjordan2233 i know I’m just trolling lol.
To make such calldowns and reevaluate their life choices :D Im trolling also
Once he said “Mando straddle” I turned it off
I don't see any real skill from either player in this hand.
If hero thinks the villain can’t beat AQ which is obviously the case. Just shove! At least avoid the chop with anther AQ. Right? Teacher
We chopping vs all Ax except A10 A6 and AK not just AQ. We beating a lot of aggro player air so risking being snap called by value portion of his range just to get chop to fold is probably the thing only Mike Postle would be able to do. Esp after investing so much although after hypothetically doing it we looks like at least AK . Most likely case ten or somehow slowplayed AA
Yeah I like a jam by the villain. If you're going to wager 6K might as well make it 10 to give your opponent worser odds.
You may be broke soon if you continue these type calls. Unless you are wealthy?
yes! will be broke soon
Obviously its player dependant, stakes dependant cause higher u play more aware and aggro general player pool is and dynamic dependant.
Just another ridiculous hand that should have never gone to a flop.....too much of this is destroying the game.
Fold preflop to 5x 3Bet and definitely folding to turn overbet.

@@losyart A pro is almost never going to 3! 43s, 75s, or Q9s-, or J8s- from the small blind vs a MP raise. That's a punt for sure and those hands are horrible playing from OOP in 3 bet pots. Most of our 3! with these types of hands are going to be from late position or sometimes vs a button open. Unless he has decided that Hero is raising too wide and/or overfolding to 3! I'd be surprised if he wasn't just folding 87s most of the time here as well.
This is a terrible call . Chopping with almost every bluff makes this a TERRIBLE call.
Terrible line from villan to end with a 6K bet on the river. should have been a check (nice try but give up) or all in (rep a full house) for hero to decide and probably check back. Everyone should at least have an Ace here.
I have never played anything close to these Stakes so I want to be as fair to the caller as I can. But I disagree with almost everything this guy has said post flop. Saying he rather have AQ over 99 or 88 on the Turn is idiotic. And can we please stop over valuing "Blockers" that are not direct blockers please? I hate AQ and it not being suited I dislike it even more. I Probably fold 50/50 preflop and would have been Gone on the Turn. But the Hero knows this Villian on a very high level so that is a layer we are not privy to.
Why would your suits matter on this board? It makes no difference to have AQo vs AQs here. And Bart's right, if you're up against an OP you have some equity vs being absolutely dead
@CrAzYxLUCKY I am saying in General that I don't like AQ and would Not want to call this raise with it, especially with it No being suited.
Horrible call. I don’t care the stakes.
