Goofy ass nerd. You were never here to begin with 💯💯💯🤓🤓

[@jimmy87587]

Ben you need to start running worse in the 100 buyins and better in the 10ks. Trust me I'm an expert.

[@RaiseYourEdge]

Can confirm that that would be a great strategy.

[@luanmarques494]

Hahahaha

[@antihackerify]

Thats something i dont understand about those guys, i would never play 100$ tournaments If i was playing 25k$ as well, for me, It doesnt makes Sense, If you would play some big tournaments like Scoop Sunday millions, wich is 215 with 7k players, thats cool, but 109 i Just dont get It .

[@Mrunlimted47]

@@antihackerify its about volume bud, no matter what stake, he is trying to put in volume, and poker websites only have so many tournaments runnin,

[@antihackerify]

@@Mrunlimted47 i understand the volume concept, im a rakeback player, i play for leaderboards, the thing is, the Gap between 109 and 25k is way too big imo, i dont think Its worth the extra attention you have to put in those, i would rather play in one more site like acr or party poker or 888 and get a few more high stakes tournaments instead of playing 109, and you can clearly see that this impacts at least a little bit on his game because he sometimes have tables where he acts at the last Second of the time bank .

[@RaiseYourEdge]

He will open very wide with short bounty behind. Thats why we should rejam 55.

[@danielortega8230]

@@RaiseYourEdge ty , master!! I was just thinking that

[@AnrakyBoy]

19:40 What kind of hands do we expect to see from him on T53fd with ace of hearts and saying that we should go broke after he immediately 4-bet shove after our 75% bet on the flop?

[@damir5548]

I guess Tx in hearts, combo draws, and sometimes A4, A2 in clubs

[@RaiseYourEdge]

Ah gives us also more back door equity if running into 2 pair. AT to go broke is a lot better than AA or KK since we block sets and 2 pairs. He will raise and go broke with KT QT as well and still a bunch of draws.

[@Niko-we8tz]

@@RaiseYourEdge Without running that spot I'd think it rlly depends on whether he has KT QT at non-zero frequency, because otherwise AT is a pure bluffcatcher . Something to consider is that hes raising vs 75% flop sizing. To me that size is prefered but i got the impression lots of tournament regs bet this spot very high freq and go 1/3 (maybe not in 5ks). Do you range bet this board and how often do you use 75% there?

[@RaiseYourEdge]

We have 2x bounties. He can have down to all suited Tx flushdraws, all sorts of 7h6h, KhT QhTh and even run it with some KT QT. This is not even close.

[@Niko-we8tz]

@@RaiseYourEdgeI assumed BB goes with every fd + gutshot /fd + pair/fd + 2 overs on the flop. KT has 18% against your get in range QT 16% from BB perspective, so doesn't make much sense to play them like this in my opinion even with the bounty. If you exclude these you got 31% against the get in range.

So after losing like 4 houses gambling I binged a jackpot and the downswing is gone. Is that how it works now ben? Keep gambling till it hits?

And you need a winning account obviously.

[@FriendsForFriends666]

@@RaiseYourEdge obviously 😂 trying to but the bots and the collusion rings don't let me... 😂 but beyond jokes, is this the case nowdays? Feels like with everyone being "so good at poker" lately, if you bing a big one you should invest the money somewhere else and take time off poker or play within a stable.

[@jaapgerrijts4179]

Ben how can you fold that FH K6. Are you so affraid of the 9? That allin looks so bluffy to me. Hard to fold that 1 my friend!

[@RaiseYourEdge]

easy fold.

[@jaapgerrijts4179]

@@RaiseYourEdge Really, why you put him on that 9? Only 2 cards left. It looked real bluffy allin at that river to me.

[@uns70ppabl35]

Hello Ben! I want to ask is the fold at 26min an exploitative fold or gto? Cuz I think you have the best possible hand you can have in this situation. Blocking KK as well. You sometimes have quads as well but still...

[@scottmeredith]

Opponent is generally taking big bet / check on this texture flop. Checking range is built around our Ax (that don’t need to bluff or bet for value), low pairs - 6x/9x (that want to keep the pot small and reach showdown), 78s that wants to take its equity. I would expect villain to bet most Qxd-Jxd on the flop as bluffs with back door potential and good blocker candidates. When we arrive at the river (when our opponent has taken a passive line). I expect to see river bet heavily weighted to 9x of which there are many with off suit variety. I’m interested in whether Hero should check range on this river? What do you think….

[@scottmeredith]

Seems like checking range is good option. We can’t really bluff the river for a big size because 9 is such an awful card. So, feels like we should be throwing in block bets and large percentage of checking. This way we avoid over folding (with our best possible hand) when taking this line

[@Exoduss123]

Very few hands from Big 109 Scoop bink, hope to see more spots from that tournament in future content

What’s been your biggest downswing?

[@CristianRCR]

Great game❤

[@Mikelarry993]

You said k6 of diamonds would have been a good call out of position rather than 4bet jam semi bluff. Then you did exactly what he did but with k7 and with a very healthy chip stack against someone who covers U lol what's that about 😅

[@321meinstv2]

na defnetly not the exactly same thing. First he was on button in Position and second he know opponents range

[@Mikelarry993]

@@321meinstv2 being on the button in position is more of a reason to call rather then shoving because it's harder to play such a hand out of position.... And clearly he didn't know villains range otherwise he would have been in front preflop. Don't try to justify a final table ICM spot that's a punt and nothing more

[@RaiseYourEdge]

@@Mikelarry993 No offense buddy, but I can clearly see you never studied ICM. Under ICM we in fact want to do a bunch of 4bet shoving suited Ax and Kx against aggressive 3bettors even if we risk busting. Even IP we do it. If you want to argue, I have no problem to discuss it, but show a bit more modestiy if you clearly have not put in the time to study ICM and FT spots thousands of hours as we top pros did.

[@Mikelarry993]

@@RaiseYourEdge however and whatever I've studied or haven't studied has nothing to do with playing a little tighter man.... Sure I'm not a pro or think I know better than most even if it seems that I do. I just think if you folded that hand played a little tighter putting aside GTO you would have made more money..... Yes your play might be profitable in the long run but isn't gambling less on a final table always the better option? That's what I don't get. I totally agreed with you about what was the better play when villain 4bet shoved on you with k6 of diamonds.... And honestly I have a strong take on my opinion because everytime I do the same thing against a wild opponent or just because it's the GTO play and it fks me 80% of the time. So when on a final table I play the tight is right unless playing for bounties and if I'm chip leading.... But you weren't playing in neither of those spots.... Mike matusow said it best.... FK GTO tight is right on a final table. I think since I started playing that way my cashes and deep runs and wins became more frequent.... I definitely could study a hell of a lot more but I don't think it will change my opinion

[@francisgendron8600]

Big fan of your business, even if Im playing live poker only. Anyway, honest question, that you probably answered 74 times : Since its proven that computers cannot generate real life random and that its pseudo-random instead (pseudo-random is proved to have repeating patterns), how can you fire that much money in online poker if it will never be real life random? Its legit a real question I have, there are clearly some beating patterns repeating itself. For example, it would so easy for a big poker company to boost AX (low kicker) vs AX (high kicker) and yes I know what variance is. Cheers!

[@francisgendron8600]

For real, it's legit insane how many times pro streamers lose AK-AQ vs A8-A7 (whales) it does not feel right sometimes.

[@Jakobos123]

What would incentivise the host to risk exposure of jeopardizing their credibility? I don't quite understand that they would get by increasing the likelihood of a cooler specifically :) cheers

[@jamesfougere2482]

This question doesn’t make sense, yes it’s pseudo random but even with the algorithm and seed you wouldn’t be able to solve it. This means it’s the same for everyone, plus these trends you talk about are just based on how you feel

[@gabrielraizman9774]

Hi, thats because you only remember the ones you loose. Also be aware that you will loose 1 out of 3 times, so it isn’t that strange to loose those ones. Apart from that, you play way more hands online than live, so this things will happen more often. Of course we sometimes suspect when they beat us so often, but it is what we signed for lol.

[@Rahul-eh3rf]

@@gabrielraizman9774 If I wanted to rig a poker site I would make the better hand win way more often than it should. People think if they get it in AA vs 55 or AK vs 98 they should win 95% of the time. Rig the action so bad beats never happen and you will have the most popular poker site of all time
