Did I go too far to exploit my opponent? (Poker Vlog #55)

[@drewmartin6240]

I hate not betting the turn when you had the set of 8s

[@cardsandcapital]

Me too man. That’s why I put the note on the screen that it was a terrible play. I’ve been playing a ton of plo lately and irrationally checked from being so used to a set being behind on a board with a straight. Absolutely the wrong play, and a ton of targets to get called by that are unlikely to call on the river if they don’t improve.

Woo! Thanks man!

GREAT basketball clip. kKK was a great fold but showing was blunderous.

[@cardsandcapital]

The squeak sound as he hits the floor is so great! I agree that I shouldn't be showing it. I was trying to get him to show the aces for the episode, but normally I would never show.

[@nicholi2789]

The limp calling range against your aces had me rolling. Also, last night I snap folded Queens face up on a 10 high flop after getting 3 bet pre and a pot sized flop bet from villain. He looked at me dumbfounded then flashed kings. Sometimes it’s just so satisfying owning someone’s soul with a fold like that. You’re gonna be correct here way more often than wrong. Not being results oriented that’s a good fold.

[@cardsandcapital]

Agreed! Nicely done. It seems crazy because it’s such a bad play against a balanced opponent, but it’s usually correct against these player types.

I’m going in, please remember all my thoughts are just helpful constructive criticism. AJ- Raise PF should be larger. And I like a bet on the turn on the smaller side all the hands that beat us with Raise. And we most likely get showdown for that price he will check river a lot QJ- Larger Raise PF, why Check call flop, we raised and flopped top pair good kicker. With flush draw o. board we can easily fold to any raise. 99- Fine AA- limp call 3 bet Ranges are a lot of small pairs, suited connectors and some unsuited or suited broadways. W/o a flush draw on board I like a check sometimes, just not as much when we are multiway. I think betting is better and then again on the turn. 88- with 99 we opened to 30 and QJ 25 why only to $20 ? On flop I prefer a 65-75% pot bet with flush draw and straight draw out there multiway. Fire again on the turn we have enough equity in case we get raised in my opinion and of course again on the river. KK- this is an exploitative fold that is going to be completely based on your opinion. I’m totally fine with it. Not saying you played bad at all, just my 2 cents.

[@cardsandcapital]

Great stuff man. When I was putting this episode together I thought, "I've been playing too much PLO lately." I played passively in multiple spots that didn't make sense at all. Definitely not proud of this one and I think that you're on point with your thoughts. Thanks homie!
