    soaking up ethanol, moving on up
    tilt rant in irc http://www.flopturnriver.com/pokerfo...rc-173340.html

    here's something decent from quite a while back, but why not
    <suspenders> um
    <suspenders> reads, where we're going we don't need reads
    <suspenders> (but really we do)
    <daven> 29-22-3, 60% attempt to steal, 50% fold to 3-bet, 45% cbet, 0% fold to cbet (0/4), 120 hands
    <daven> is what my hud told me
    <daven> he knows that sb is calling atc
    <suspenders> PF standrad for you?
    <daven> depends on table
    <daven> usually i open fold
    <daven> obviously, but sometimes...
    <daven> the nits were respecting my ep opens although i guess it is a kinda marginal play to iso the sb
    <daven> sorry, bb
    <daven> like, i was ubernit this morning session
    <daven> 2k hands at 15-11
    <suspenders> let's say the river is a 2-5
    <suspenders> what's your decision and sizing
    <daven> ok, villain's range is good to know here
    <daven> and that's kinda wide pre-flop
    <daven> 22-JJ, scs, broadways, Axs
    <daven> calling the flop with any piece/made hand and even some draws
    <daven> turn he folds a lot
    <daven> by the river the value is kinda thin
    <daven> but without thinking i bet-fold
    <daven> if 2-5
    <daven> or Q-A
    <daven> river J/9/8 i check behind
    <daven> 7/6 i bet-call ldo
    <daven> hand on, bet-call q
    <daven> sizing for both is $13
    <kiwiMark> daven: ouchies, re: riots
    <kiwiMark> Anyway, I'm off now
    * kiwiMark is now known as kiwiMark|drinks
    <daven> have fun, watch out for upstairs windows
    <suspenders> I don't get $13
    <suspenders> are you trying to rep thin value b/c that's silly with our hand
    <daven> um, it is thinner than it first appears
    <suspenders> right but your bet sizing reps your hand
    <suspenders> silly billy
    <daven> yeah, true.
    <daven> but nobody cr bluffs like ever
    <daven> it also reps scared overpairs
    <suspenders> right
    <suspenders> which sucks if on like a 2-5 river he has 99/JJ/etc
    <suspenders> hard to put you on Tx opening UTG+1
    <daven> and also reps scared AK
    <suspenders> and most players would assume you aren't getting 3 streets from JJ+
    <daven> ok, so sizing then?
    <daven> like, i check KK any river here
    <daven> but i bet TT the same size
    <suspenders> upper 20s probably
    <suspenders> right
    <suspenders> so ppl should look you up somewhat lightish here
    <suspenders> with a bigger bet
    <suspenders> smaller bet as I said reps hands like KK
    <suspenders> I might bluff with those sizes if somehow I got here with one
    <suspenders> I think that's a mistake
    <daven> why?
    <suspenders> b/c w/ $13 you're never bluffing
    <daven> on a blank river he's only raising hands >> T9 here
    <daven> and he's likely c-r all hands > T9
    <suspenders> we're still discussing a 2-5 river
    <suspenders> right
    <daven> if i bet small with TT = max value line? or ?
    <suspenders> no
    <suspenders> look his range seems fairly week on a 2-5river
    <suspenders> 88/99/JJ
    <suspenders> stuff like that makes by far and away the most sense
    <daven> 66/77
    <daven> 66/77/88/99/JJ
    <suspenders> ok fine w/e
    <daven> or?
    <suspenders> we're valuebetting
    <daven> i guess he donks river with a good hand
    <suspenders> so let's forget about 66/77
    <suspenders> and talk about maximzing value from 88/99/JJ
    <suspenders> perhaps even QQ
    <suspenders> I mean your'e opening UTG+1, I'd flat QQ there
    <daven> um, are we going to give him a range ?
    <suspenders> lol
    <suspenders> that's what we're doing boss

    <daven> don't get a tat
    <daven> get a scar
    <daven> way cooler

    <dranger_libertyinsandiego> and lolagreed daven
    <dranger_libertyinsandiego> but the Corps is a lil more lenient on tats than brands lol
    <daven> so, you like it as played? based on river - but we gotta think about other rivers?
    <daven> so, ok with flop and turn play?
    <daven> cos they own you and a brand is someone else may own you?
    <suspenders> what else were you supposed to do
    <daven> good, just checking!
    <daven> ok, so river 3-5 are the only interesting scenarios then
    <suspenders> nah J-A
    <daven> J i check behind, Q i go broke
    <suspenders> checking back the jack seems like a mistake
    <daven> i just don't see him calling much on a jack river
    <dranger_libertyinsandiego> ok
    <daven> and it's bet-fold
    <dranger_libertyinsandiego> g2g
    <dranger_libertyinsandiego> ill post some pics of my new tat tomorrow probx
    <dranger_libertyinsandiego> probs*
    <dranger_libertyinsandiego> later

    <suspenders> against 66-QQ on the river
    <suspenders> on a 6TT7J board
    <suspenders> with half the 88/99 combos taken out
    <suspenders> you're dead even
    <daven> sure, now, split that into 3
    <daven> hands he calls, hands he folds, hands he raises
    <daven> and add some JT/T9/AT
    <daven> he calls QQ
    <suspenders> really not expecting him to have those Tx hands ever
    <suspenders> pretty stunned at ATo tbh
    <daven> um, T9/JT/AT are in the agreed pre-flop range
    <suspenders> "agreed"
    <daven> so when do they disappear
    <daven> 22-QQ/SCs/Broadways/Axs
    <suspenders> disagree there
    <daven> ok, i took silence as agreement
    <suspenders> i mean I like that range were he on the button
    <suspenders> I think it has to be tighter/stronger from the SB
    <daven> hmm, i would if the bb wasn't dead money
    <suspenders> I'd say that's a much better argument if he's the BB and fish is SB
    <daven> true
    <daven> ok, make it suited broadways
    <suspenders> my main point is
    <suspenders> no matter his range
    <suspenders> when we bet the river it's clearly for value
    <suspenders> but when you bet $13 on the river it's never as a bluff
    <suspenders> so it's fairly easy to play perfectly against a $13 bet
    <daven> i'm stuck on whether there is any value to be had now
    <suspenders> 2-5 river
    <daven> ja
    <daven> ok,
    <daven> JJ/QQ/99/JT/T9
    <suspenders> 88=99
    <daven> &88, yep
    <suspenders> like if he has JJ
    <suspenders> and you bet $13 on the river
    <suspenders> you're repping a wider value-betting range than had you bet like $27
    <suspenders> I think we can agree on that
    <daven> which means i get more calls?
    <suspenders> ?
    <suspenders> why
    <daven> cos villain isn't thinking about range so much, he's like, hmm, i gotta call
    <daven> whereas vs $27, he's thinking uhoh i don't like 99 much anymore
    <suspenders> you're never going to get anywhere in poker thinking like that
    <suspenders> c
    learly what your bet-size represents is huge here
    <daven> yeah, and $13 reps weaker than $27 = he is calling the hands we get value against way more often
    <suspenders> $13 does NOT REP WEAKER
    * badgers has joined #flopturnriver
    <daven> in his mind it does
    <daven> badgers - a hand, assuming river 2-5, betsizing and why
    <daven> http://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...00.html#934793
    <daven> also, villain is <daven> 29-22-3, 60% attempt to steal, 50% fold to 3-bet, 45% cbet, 0% fold to cbet (0/4), 120 hands
    <oskar> (11:53:18 AM) dranger_libertyinsandiego: what do we think ^?
    <badgers> the 2nd hand?
    <oskar> like omg theres an eagale inside u
    <suspenders> let's look at your "range" for betting $13 vs something in the upper 20s
    <suspenders> gimme your range for betting $13
    <daven> yep
    <badgers> it's a pretty tough spot...
    <badgers> basically the only T you get value from is JT
    <suspenders> the hand with the river as is, is not a tough spot
    <badgers> JJ+ probably 3bets preflop
    <daven> ok, say 2-5 river
    <badgers> ohhhh
    <badgers> sorry :S
    <daven> as played it's easy check behind
    <daven> i think
    <badgers> yeah I agree
    <badgers> sorry too early in morning lol
    <daven> so, river 4h
    <daven> for example
    <daven> we're debating bet sizing etc
    <badgers> $24 minimum
    <daven> and we gotta split his range into 3, right = calling range, folding range, cr shove range
    <suspenders> I really doubt we're getting c/r'ed ever on the end
    <daven> why? i'm lost here, you both agree, = i'm gonna learn something
    <suspenders> dude
    <daven> yeah, he's leading the river with his monsters most of the time
    <suspenders> i've said it 20 times
    <badgers> 99/88/jt/t8/t9
    <suspenders> by betting small you reps hands you normally wouldn't be valuebetting
    <suspenders> with a big size
    <badgers> it looks more like air
    <suspenders> ^^^^^^
    <suspenders> and we've opened UTG+1
    <suspenders> to Tx is not a part of our typical range
    <daven> does it look more like air? is my question i guess
    <suspenders> you're repping a hand like QQ by betting small, which is not what you want to represent against 88/99/JJ
    <daven> like, assuming a typical villain here
    <daven> he's more likely to bluff catch vs a big bet?
    <badgers> it looks more like a full house/air given your EPopen
    <badgers> he may fold slightly more frequently to a big bet
    <suspenders> not likely to bluffcatch, but your range is crazy polarized
    <suspenders> with a big bet
    <badgers> but not enough to make up for the time that you win more by betting bigger
    <daven> i dunno if i barrel AK here
    <badgers> does he know that?
    <suspenders> probably should barrel a lot here
    <suspenders> EP open against his SB calling range
    <daven> i probably don't 3-barrel air enough
    <suspenders> seems like a pretty simple spot of our range is lolstronger than his
    <daven> yeah, we agree on everything but sizing
    <daven> and i'm starting to get it
    <daven> he's calling JJ both sizes, same with JT/T9
    <badgers> idk if I would barrel AK here, it's hard to get him to fold 88/99 when he picks up the gutshot and I think that's a decent part of his range
    <daven> QQ on river?
    <badgers> unless we plan on 3barrelling a lot but I would want more reads before I did that
    <daven> play
    <badgers> same thing
    <badgers> $24
    <badgers> min
    <badgers> oh wait
    <daven> even when our range suddenly became weaker against his?
    <badgers> idk it depends if he's bad enough to call Tx here
    <daven> cos there are twice as many Tx hands
    <badgers> which he is apparently
    <badgers> preflop I mean
    <daven> 9T/TJ mostly, and AT, maybe Kts/QTs
    <daven> TT
    <daven> i check QQ behind, awful?
    <badgers> no i think it's ok
    <suspenders> if you check back QQ then you'll def want to bet big with Tx
    <suspenders> I'd bet $27+ with Tx/boats/air and $9 with JJ-AA
    <suspenders> this is on the low-card river
    <daven> I'm going to post the low card version in FTR FR forum
    <suspenders> lol
    <badgers> I guess he pretty much never has air here
    <daven> cos i definitely gained something from this
    <badgers> so vbetting JJ is fine
    <badgers> since he'll never turn a hand into a bluff
    <badgers> and we're marginally ahead of his range
    <suspenders> basically with JJ-AA on the river I'd bet w/e size I bet on the turn
    <badgers> 79/78 also possible
    <daven> 89 also then
    <badgers> as is like A6/86/96
    <badgers> some combos
    <suspenders> nah
    <suspenders> i mean flatting from the sb against EP open with those seems like a stretch
    <badgers> 86s can definitely play this way
    <suspenders> 78/89 work postflop, but should be discount PF a bit
    <daven> 29-22
    <badgers> I'm not really thinking offsuit
    <daven> suited for sure
    <suspenders> you'd get better advice in the SH forum
    <suspenders> sowwy but it's true
    <daven> but the mod would move the hand...
    <suspenders> cuz this is a creative kind of spot
    <suspenders> ya I'm not saying to do it
    <suspenders> this is one of dem outside the box kinda thangs
    <daven> ok, another one that's kinda similar
    <daven> but completely different
