$750,000 POT!! Alan Keating’s MASTERCLASS On VALUE BETTING!

[@PokerCoaching]

What would YOU do on the river with T♦ 9♦? Your Stack (UTG): $438,000 Their Stack (BB): $322,000 Pot: $104,000 Board: Q♣ 8♣ 7♥ 3♦ J♥ A) Bet $34,000 B) Bet $52,000 C) Bet $104,000 D) Bet $322,000 (all-in)

[@nat2r]

D, because if I get called it makes up for all the times I didn't, and I don't think betting the size of the pot makes us more money in the long run

Alan got lucky. I'd be thinking bet 1/2 pot to get a call if he has Qs or even 8s and maybe induce a raise if he has 2 pair. All-in could potentially scare off 1 pair. Then again all-in smells like a busted draw as well. I would have to know my opponent and how they would react. If Alan has the reputation of big bluffs, Alan should go all in.

[@gametheoryimpossible]

I have to stop watching Hustler because I try these plays out at .01/.02 and they don’t work the same 😂

[@nomilknosugar4900]

We should use three sizings on this river: a small size (33%) an ordinary size (80%) and a whopping size (all in). Our hand should mostly bet all-in and occasionally small (to balance and protect our bet small range). Exploitatively, hero can easily find enough bluffs and we have a loose image AND our opponent has loads of clear bluff catchers, so we should jam. Against a weaker opponent (who doesn't understand polarisation) a 60-80% pot bet should be used.

[@SacramentoKingpin]

Keating’s image is priceless, would love for others at the table to view me the same way they view him… they never give him credit!

My thoughts exactly! Took it so smoothly that it was remarkable.

[@intrepidus3378]

Assuming I am playing this game, and properly bankrolled for it, I'd call against Keating and probably not take as long as J.R. took. You just have to pay him off here. He'd be doing the exact same thing with pretty much his entire range including value hands like over pairs. I really love playing in games with players like Keating. They open up the game for everyone. Even hands they're not playing, you know that the other players are wider just because he's there.

[@NicholasStein]

I was watching this amazing game live. I loved that JRB slept through the hand. You did not say that Keating was also down over $1 million on the night. He has wrecked several times during the game and has a vpip over 50%. He has to go all in. I would too in his place. He is the only player at the table that could get called.

[@BradKraft2011]

It was the correct move. Ripping isn’t always it, but some hands it’s how you get substantially more value from a situation you’re not always going to be in, and rarely are

[@eliezerzagorin8127]

What are you. talking about? He lost less than 100k

[@NicholasStein]

@@eliezerzagorin8127 Take a look at the Cumulative winnings at 6:52. kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z3eli6uDrMZobpY At that time Keating was down 713k. He had borrowed $600k from JRB. It was an all-time comeback.

[@stephentaylor6617]

D All in. With Alan’s image, you are likely to get a call with any made hand. Alan would play this hand the same way with 6 2 off suit.

[@SerErryk]

I don't think I've ever made a 3x pot jam in my life (except when the nuts is on the board, and I'm hoping the opponent doesn't notice and folds).

[@micarobles3248]

Tks for the lesson,excited,getting your book today.

[@G0DofRock]

Good riverbet. I think he's saying he was cbetting JJ then rivered trips, but it's clearly the nut straight. Two pair can't beat sets or better so should be an easy fold.

[@kineahora8736]

Pot is 104k, the idea is to take this line with all your bluffs, so you want to polarize turn and river betting. I think the river bet can be very large like 2x pot. The thing is when you are bluffing you want to apply max pressure, and are you really ever going to want to put in say 210k and leave 100k behind? Not really. It’s just a jam. JAM. P.s. I had a spot almost exactly like this: I raised J8s on the button and my LHO in the SB called with a limper and it came Q85. I checked back the flop. Turn 3. Villain led small I called. River J, giving me JRs exact hand Jacks & 8s. Board is Q85 3 J. No flushes. Now my villain led $900 into the $160 pot! 5.3x! I tanked and folded. I knew he had bluffs but it was over 5x pot and I felt he had a ton of T9 in his range (like all 16), QJ, sets particularly 55… So I folded and he actually showed me…… KK!!!

[@aryanchugh290]

All in on the river

[@jppagetoo]

I would think a value bet that could be called by a marginal made hand would be the size I would take. I also think an large overbet has merit to make it look like a missed draw bluff, but you risk folding out a lot of JR range. I personally would bet 35k or so to give pot odds to about anything to call.

[@jppagetoo]

I don't have Alans table image. Alan has the image needed and JR got there with a strong hand himself. Would JR have called this with just a pair of Jacks? That's the hand I wanted to get value from. This was a perfect storm for JR, lost the max.

[@kristianstenerson2608]

If I am displaying aggro vibes like Alan, then I am maybe putting in a 2x pot bet lol. If i havent been able to make anything work and my table image is kind of low then I might just do 80% or 120%

I'd bet C) - $104k. Well, really, I'd bet ~$125k, but that's not an option. I want to say all-in, but I never ever bluff like that on the river, so I don't have the option - any minimally observant player will see my bet sizing as a clear tell and fold. Moral - I should be willing to make bigger bluffs on the river, to allow me to extract more value when I do have it.

[@denniss420]

Alan is one of the players on the planet who could bet any amount and get called. But 150% would be standard? So 200% could be reasonable as well. The jam seems crazy. But this is what happens when the maniac runs well

The only mistake JR made in this hand, was playing it at all, especially oop.

[@troyhbk]

Im not huge with blockers in no limit but doesn't JR have one of the worst cards in his hand that block a shitload of Alan's bluff's? I can't think of a worse card to have in your hand on this board quite frankly. Can someone smarter and better at cards explain if Im correct here? Or this just a situation where Alan can have any 2 and 2 pair is too strong to fold? As someone whos lost 100k in last 6 months on 6 card plo on some silly union, blockers are huge there, not so sure how important they are in holdem but if they are isn't holding the jack of clubs really bad for JR here?

[@chevy11786]

You a correct. Removes a lot of his good flush draws and some offsuit straight combos which means he is weighted more heavily to value. JR should not be calling OOP with that hand I don’t care how wide Keating opens in position. Keating plays for stacks and against those kinds of players you need to play hands that flop really well and can improve on later streets. I know Keating can show up with nothing a lot but if the river blanks and keating jams it’s a fold all day considering you hold J of clubs.

[@JacobGluck]

while its true that keating will raise, and c-bet with garbage, I noticed that he only bets turn when he has something (at least a strong draw). And he mostly (or always) gives up on the river if he misses. The fact that keating moved all in so quickly here without hesitation is a tell of a very strong hand. It's not a bluff. If I were JR would I call? Probably, but that's why I'm not a pro poker player. I think a player the caliber of Garret would have folded there.
