Gotta download this, Campbell-Gee is my good mate!

at 27:43 then we have K3o at 4J6ss boad i think cbet is better. Cuz this man folding 2 cbets. Even if he wonna bluf c/r, it would be very scared for him. he have 650 behind, so if we cbet 100, he c/r half of his stack. its just like he check push at this stack sizes, and i dont belive, that he could do this with total air.

Yes, he have no Ax at his range, but he fold most of Kx and even if we ahead now, we dont wona give him 25% chance to win at later streets.

@School47 What hands call a cbet that we're ahead of on this board? I never thought he would c/r bluff this board at these stx. Also villain has no Kx in his range really since we have a K so I'm not sure what you mean by that unless you are saying to fold out better Kx that is flatting like K9+....we should have the best hand with K high given that we know he would 3b shove all his Ax hands pre. If we cbet we just tighten his range to sd value that is ahead of us or draws that are doing pretty well against us. Checking back here is def more +ev than cbetting for all of those reasons.

@ 8:25 on the 10 3 3 3 A board, do you not think that Ax hits an oop calling range a tonne and is infact probably a pretty bad card to tripple off on, I think most regs range for calling a turn is more weighted towards Ax combo's kx combo's pocket pairs 22-77 and 10x, I would be suprised if many regs call naked flush draws on the turn unless they had at least q high flush draws because if they hit then they cant get value out of anything and when they miss they lose the pot 100% of the time, I like trippling off any cards apart from kx and Ax but i think trippling off on these river cards is -ev as it hits there range too much?

havnt watched the whole vid yet, great value for husng to release a free vid in the higher stakes.

thanks

@lbtrading Good question. I think Ax hands as much as they are in an oop calling range are repped much harder ip. Every single Ax hand is in an in position raising range. That means Korpie ip here can rep it better than Campbell. Also think about how ranges change postflop. On the turn I was thinking more about an over + fd, not just a naked fd although I do think a naked fd might call there too. When we call the 2nd barrel I don't think we do that with any Ax hand that's in our oop calling range on this board. So I think on the turn, Korpie can rule out Ax hands from our range and go ahead and 3 barrel that riv. The only thing I really disagree with is the last part of what you said. That you would triple barrel any riv except Ax and Kx rivs. Those hands just are not calling the turn. Other than a fd, what Ax, Kx hands are we calling the 2nd barrel with? I think a K or A riv is perfect to 3 barrel.

thanks for the reply, The only reason I dont think korpie reps much Ax on the river is because I think most regs would not barrel ax on the turn after being called on the flop, the reason i think trippling off on non ax and kx rivers is good is because i do expect to be double floated with ax and decent kx quite a bit especially if i think my opponent is giving me reasonable credit for being a decent thinking player and I dont have a nitty image.

also @ 23:30 jq on A9Q4 I think on this board with qj if the river is a brick its a spot for 3 streets of value than 2 I think against opponents at this level we will be getting called by worse and even if we do get called by better and he see's us vallue betting decent qx here it means we can have a wider frequency of bluffs on Ax boards which is a good thing, I think specifically on this board though like you said theres just too many bluffs in our range to not be value betting qj here, the only thing I cant make my mind up on is the sizing, actually think a polar betsize will be better because if we bet a smaller amount we can actually look like we might be betting qx so it makes it easy for 9x to fold but if we bet a simular size as in the video it widens villians calling range as we either have decent Ax+ or bluffs.

thanks for the vid

@PHMERC  about K3o seems like u right. cuz his preflop OOP range is too tight.

in general good vids, thx for making that!

Great vid!

K3 hand on J64 flop:

How often do you think that Korpieworm isn't leading the turn/river if we check back? How often can we stand a raise on turn/river if we don't hit a pair or an ace (not much aces in his range, don't think that he would actually lead Ace turn)?

Hey guys, saw that we got some low ratings on here. All the comments here seem positive. For those who rated this poorly can you post your thoughts? I wanna do my best to put out helpful videos, so need to know what you guys want different next time or what spots you disagree with. Thanks.

@jayn I'm not sure but I don't really care. I have no problem checking back and folding on bad turns. Sometimes I'll check back and call turn if it's different board texture and/or if I have enough sd val and think I'm ahead. I also might be able to call turn and bluff riv if I know villain can't 2 barrel bluff and only value. That is def not the case here with Korpie though. I think Korpie in this spot won't lead wide here on the turn.

First of all, I´m no native speaker, so I hope I can make myself clear.

Second

I really liked the vid. I think u have very good teaching skill. Your thought process seems to be very focused and you are considering a lot of aspects of the played hands without being too disgressively. So I couldn´t explain the ratings and did some research in the comments of your elder videos.

3rd.

After I did so I noticed that you as Ryan mentioned "are no angel at the tables" plus when it comes to comments, some ppl think your kind of arrogant.

I haven´t seen those vids, but I can´t imagine that a person with such a good focus on aspect of hands and teaching skills gets such a bad rating because there a some bad teaching issues. Neither I think, s.o. who is a buddy/student from hokie is a such a bad player that his complete thought process is that wrong that it deserves 2or 1 stars.

Some ppl think their personal dislike of a person is enough to rate a vid 1 or 2 stars, because they are not willing to listen to s.o. who they dislike. That´s how it is, you can´t chance that. I personally give a shit about how much I like a person or not, when I can learn a lot from this person. I dont know if your arrogant or not and I couldnt care less. If your doing good/very good vids I rate them 4 stars (like I did here) and if your doing an awesome vid (e.g. like some mers vids) I would rate it 5 stars.

The only thing what this site could do, is that nobody could rate a vid without leaving a comment. That would be a step into the right direction, even if s.o. decides not to rate a vid because its too much work to write smth. about it, because thats even better that all this 1 stars hate rating without being constructive. On this site I think there is no chance that a rating is a good advice. which - on the other side - is quite useful, because I have to watch every vid and build my own opinion :)

IMO you wont get rid of those ratings, if people dislike you on whatsoever reasons. I have no account at this time so I cant say too much about your overall video quality. Just tried to find an explanation, because I couldnt explain the rating of this free vid to myself.

Gl at the tables

Lol wantet to rate the vid but could´t. Seems to be because I got no ative account. So add 4 and divide by 15 ;P

Thank you for the detailed feedback Raven.

The voting system has always kind of just "been there."  We pay attention to the comments and from asking members regularly how they feel (whether a valued member inquires about renewing a rakeback membership or renewing a subscription, we gather feedback on the videos and poker rooms they play at).

I'd like to overhaul the voting system but I have to find out what our limitations are.  Certainly something like "comment after vote" for 1, 2 and 5 star votes probably makes sense.

Great video, very well played by Campbell.  Loved his 3rd barrel sizing on the QJ AQ9xQ board and your breakdown of the hand.  Nice job

one of the best video ever seen. I liked it more than the two tabling video, very interesting comments on 3 bet PF

Great video. As  I can speak for myself i think PHMERC is a great coach I did also had one lesson from him and it was a total eye opener, since my vacansion I started out playing again and get to work with the advice PHMERC gave, I have rewatched the video quite alot try to fix all the things. One big problem I have is thinking in ranges and need to work on it. 

But back to the viddeo I really loved it, it is easy to understand, you gave a good explanation. 

I don't know what manors you had on the chat, but I see my self cursing alot to in the chat:p, but why does everybody must be the same. I like it when people can drink you're blood, but it doesn't always mean youre a bad person or a bad coach. As i say there always be haters, and haters gonna hate no matter what you do. Also when  youre crushing everybody they are still gonna hate!

So keep up the good work!

lol, my thoughts exactly :)

There is a hand where Campbell c/raises Jh7h to a half pot cbet  in a minraiset t80 pot on a TT4 rainbow & 09:40.

I like that check-raise, but now if we take it a step further and from villains perspective, wouldn't this be a good spot for villain to 3bet?

My reasoning: A4,K4s,45s hands would possibly choose another raisesize or maybe even not checkraise(?). Plus(!) would you really c/raise a Tx/44 hand here? Because the bord is so dry and check-raising would only cause a lot of hands that might continue barreling to fold, thus loosing value from blufs.

So if Campbell would usually choose not to checkraise sets/ FH here on this bord, then villain probably has a profitable 3betting spot here with most of his range.

Dont know about betsizing though...

But a little math: after Campbell's t110 c/raise the pot is 230 & villain already invested t40. If he makes it 230 extr to t270 he needs his 3bet to work 50% of the time to break even. I'd probably make it a little bigger to 300-340 cause it looks a bit stronger.

What u think?

Good question, and yes I would say if Korpie knew that Campbell had those tendencies on the flop (to c/r wide and just c/c all value) then absolutely it would be a great spot for him (Korpie) to 3b bluff back. It is also possible the other way, like you said, if maybe Campbell could c/r value on that board knowing Korpie would assume he's "supposed" to be c/c his value. This is def high level stuff, and I think you have the right throught process on it. Nice job.

yeah-great vid!!

5:30 22 - Why should villain not turn K high into a bluff here? Our flop c/c range is almost all Tx/pocket pairs 22-88 and ace high, and assuming this range:

[88-22,A9o-A4o,A2o,JTo,T9o-T7o,A9s-A4s,A2s,JTs,T9s-T6s] (88 weighted to being flatting 50% of the time, 3bet 50% of he time)

We have ace high 56.9% of the time, and can't call a second bet with it. King high beats nothing in our c/c range except pure floats which it won't get to showdown against, so imo betting turn with king high is def the best play in Korpieworm's shoes.

Triple barrelling as Korpieworm would be bad. If we did get stubborn OTT w/ ace high we're obv not folding, we have Tx and 3x in our range, and the only hands he folds out is 22-88. He wasn't thinking he's good vs missed spades, he thought he doesn't have enough FE because your range is far too strong.

25:30 QJ - You're saying we're polarised to Qx or missed draws, but do we really bluff a missed draw here? What do we fold out? IMO our riv betting range is AT+ and Qx, so for that reason I think we should go something like 335 to let him call A2-A9 and get killed. You said that they both played well…IMO they both played bad.

Could you please revise this spot and post your current thoughts on it?

27:45 K3 - if we check back our range is so incredibly weak, Korpie will barrel 2 streets with anything that is worse, he won't c/r bluff a ton with these stacks (and he hasn't shown any inclination to do that so far anyway), and when he fold out Td8h we're folding out his 31% equity share anyway, which is fine by us. If we check back we don’t win the hand ever unless we turn a king.

'I think cbetting is +EV, but not as +EV as checking'

I assume you're talking about the EV through the whole hand (since checking is 0EV), and if you are talking about the whole hand, cbetting is definitely best. Would like to hear your revised thoughts on this as well.

'Deeper Korpieworm would think about check raising…he cant here because of stacks'

Uhh, isn't that more reason to cbet?

Good video, looking forward to hearing your thoughts.

Got to agree that Ax is more in the BB's range than in the Button's. You said yourself that people won't doublebarrel Ax ot that T,3,3,3 board, and I believe a lot of people would look up the turn bet in the BB with an ace. Aren't they right to when the button has all kinds of crap in his range like Q,5o? Therefore, I think giving up on that river was a wise decision by Korpie.

Hi PHMERC,

I really enjoyed the video. You explain the various situations clearly and intelligently. I especially liked the AT on 568ss(?) hand and the K3 on J46dd hand. I sometimes feel a bit lost in similar spots and this helped a lot.  Also, your ideas about setting up a 3bet dynamic were enlightening. 

Keep up the good work and thanks again :)

Kind regards,

Joeri
