For what its worth, I think this guy is probably better than what I give him credit for in the start of the video.

Hey ncie video, I liek videos where u play multiple matches against an opponent cuz wereally get to see good asjutments we can make.. I was wonderign if you could maybe explain a little mroe what your 3 bet strategy against this type of player is? I saw you 3 bettign a lot of Axo hands and was wodnering why you felt this was best way to play these hands..

I think that a big portion of hands that you will be 4bet with are going to be AX hands (usually AJ+) and the times that you have an ace in your hand your opponent will have one a little less often. Secondly, I prefer to have the intiative when I play AX hands (I want to be the preflop raiser) because it makes the hands a lot easier on me to play. If I am betting into my opponent and he flat calls or he raises me, it tells me a lot more about his hand than if check and he continuation bets.

If I am OOP I do not have the choice to check back a street for pot control; thus, if my opponent wants to fire 3 bets against my check I have no choice. This makes it very difficult for me to get to a showdown with a hand like A5o unless I hit an ace because a pair of 5s or ace high are barely even beating bluffs in a triple barreled pot. Thus, I would rather be the attacker and be cbetting as a bluff where I am putting my opponent to a decision rather than checking/calling and trying to decide if my weak holding is enough to catch my opponent's bluff.

wp xSCWx, quality vids as always. It seemed to me you were quite tilted after those Jacks binked a set on the river ;p.. hold... hold... NOOOOO T_T..

but yeah, pretty solid game overall, I liked almost every single line you took barring the 3bet with A2o.. A2s would of been a lot better because of equity reasons obv~

ty4thevid, bye
