Grandpa Goes GANGSTA on Kpop Idol!!! | Adapting GTO for Live Play

Welcome back to another episode of Adapting GTO for Live Play, where we attempt to apply universal principles of EV maximization derived from game theory, to live games where the players are not playing anywhere close to GTO.
In this particular video we are covering one of the craziest plays ever seen on Hustler Casino Live. Is there anything we can learn from the computer to analyze a situation like this? Watch to find out!

Its one thing being a billionaire, but when you contribute every cent of your winnings of every cash game to charity, then you can say you do good for the world. GO KLEIN GO!!

Bill snap asking for a count when Brian raises is just the sickest reverse live tell ever.

It's funny. Why would you be interested how much you opponent has if you have quads? 😛

[@jonnyhatter35]

bro that old timer is on another level. That's so motherfucking gangster. Everything about the river in this hand is just insane.

Check out Kleins bluff vs Phil Galfond too.. another insanely good bluff.

[@iambadatpickingusernames6669]

The title is perfect

[@jackripper8337]

I think Gangster Bill has pulled off 3 of the top 5 insane televised bluffs…. He has this one…. The one in 50k with 44 I think it was…. He also has the vs Phil Galfond on HSP. Bill really REALLY likes the donk bet 3b river bluff. LOL

[@analyticaldegen986]

I clicked for the intro. Was not disappointed 😂👌

[@209twitch]

I did a bluff just like this on a trips board with all Ten just like it too except he called with AT. I need to move up to where they respect my raises

[@checkthenutz]

This channel is criminally underrated * Not sure if this makes sense as I’m an amateur player at best. I think bills decision to donk and ultimately raise is because he holds the A of clubs. And this means that his opponent is unlikely to have one of the few fives that could get to the River this way, A5c. And if I’m not mistaken Klein being in the straddle and calling should mean he also has 56c more than his opponent. Though I could be wrong, and there’s no way to know if bill knows this.

[@camaleonsacor1618]

all very nice but a bit of an overkill in the analisis maybe? but it is usually the case in GTO analizys. Anyway good vid. Hand on the river is easy, he raise because bill can be donking Tx sometimes (it would not makes sense but this kind of players maybe do that" and just folds because ncant put bluffs in his range. I mean is a live play haha, sick bluff tho, easy to call from this side of the keyboard lol

[@iambadatpickingusernames6669]

I didn’t understand the raise from Brian. When Bill leads for pot, he’s repping 5x or TT for value, or a bluff. In that range, there’s no hands that you can get value from, unless the plan is raising to induce a spazzy bluff against someone you perceive wouldn’t play 5x in this manor.

[@psychofruit]

This is live whale poker. Plenty of people will cry call with any T, JJ, QQ

[@iambadatpickingusernames6669]

@@psychofruit the point is they wouldn’t donk for pot with those hands on the river

[@StuartFerguson55]

Omg that intro

[@FuzzypupPoker]

How is being deeper worse when out of position warranting a call instead of a 3b? I would figure the opposite since you can be leveraged into commitment or leveraged out of your fair equity. In addition when they put you past commitment it is much easier for them to be bluffing with a more balanced range than deep. Deep you can call and continue. Or is the assumption the opposite that when shorter we can leverage the pot to get paid on our sets better than deep. If we have an implied 13:1 on hitting a set and we do it is fairly easy to get that money. But if we are getting 50:1 it is harder to hit that 13:1 to turn a profit.

[@Gos1234567]

What??Higher the SPR the worst for the OOP. You hit top pair with 20bb it’s going all in,you’re not doing that with 200bb

[@Brazz27]

Youre saying you prefer to play bigger pots out of position?

[@user-kb1hw2yq2f]

Even if you get bluffed like that in these spots, if you play this good, you'll always come out on top. Its pretty rare for someone to river quads against your pocket pair/fh. 95% of all poker players in the world would have called that raise because of their 2D mindset when it comes to this game. Like the kid said, he didnt have enough to rebuy.

[@bozapub3507]

If Bill can't do it no one can. He did it to Phil Galfond years ago, to same effect.

[@DoubleJHas2ManyDoodles]

What solver is this?

[@xx765]

Bill Klein is also a bit of a nit. He is one of the guys who could have TT here. Which makes his line somewhat more convincing I guess

[@Gos1234567]

JJ and TT are calls half the time here pre.

[@murazgb]

Agree with theory in this video..but 1st..this is locked board...river didn't change anything...so if recreational player (Bill is recro millionaire)has nuts (5X) they would check cuz IP has to bluff a lot on locked boards like this. Only mistake Brian made is raise size...but still I don't see recros donking rivers with nuts on locked boards..and I play milion hands a year If river completes flushes, st8 then its different story..then its dinamic board and story is different...remember that !

[@pudelinocacalat2951]

Bill the OMC xD

[@econgator6153]

What is the technical definition of a "donk bet"

[@jackripper8337]

When playing Out of Position you bet into the previous street aggressor…. When recs do it…. It’s a donk bet…. When pros do it. It’s called a “Lead”. LOL

[@TheSh_dow]

Easy call if he has AK...

[@ariownts123]

mostly came down to bill overall playing straight forward poker over the last decade or so, so this bet looked pure value

[@MrDarraghOBrien]

Not rly check out his bluff vs Phil Galfond :)

[@rp18125]

I dont think the river raise is bad from an exploitative standpoint, the river pot donk from a recreational player is probably much more merged than it should be.

[@Gos1234567]

If more merged then is he going to call a raise with a medium hand ?

[@Johnny-cz2wv]

@@Gos1234567 Yes. Yes they will

[@fmcdomer]

"would bill ever check trip 5's on the turn?" if he asked himself that and thought about it the answer is always NO that was his mistake

[@spray1531]

You mean check call or check at all ?

[@fmcdomer]

@@spray1531 only thing he would check is 5555 hes TAG with rare bluffs so he would 100% bet when hes ahead on turn

[@Johnny-cz2wv]

Bizarre statement. Most players won't donk ever on that turn

[@fmcdomer]

@@Johnny-cz2wv if bill has trips he’s never checking the turn. He’s TAG

[@LongNguyen-ho9qf]

Love how we only get to see this channel criticizing others after having the benefit of being able to analyze 1 hand for hours with software yet we never get to see him nit in a live atmosphere with time constraints bet he would come off as a sad sad nit

[@Tell_It_Right]

At lower stakes like $1/$3 this bluff gets insta-called. GTO doesn't seem to work as well at lower levels of poker as it does at higher ones. In other words, GTO typically only works against GTO.

[@v.v.7337]

this intro though!
