[@thomasocallaghan9145]

Please dear God yes, groundhog poker day

[@jacobolson8417]

I really like the fold. Phil Ivey knows he cannot be overbluffing this spot with his KhXx hands or he will be punting so much into a range that has an easy defense. So Petrangelo knows that it is very unlikely for Phil to be overbluffing this spot, which means that Ivey will very likely have less than 26.1% bluffs, which means Petrangelo would not be making a profitable calloff. Deeper analysis of river: For Ivey to be bluffing at least 26.1%, to balance out his combos of 3 AA, 3 JJ, 1 99, 6 combos of A9, 6 of J9, and maybe 9 combos of KX of hearts, and like 6 QX of hearts. This approx 34 combinations of value hands Ivey can have, so he needs at least 9 bluff combinations to be bluffing over 26.1% of the time (which is how often he must bluff to make Petrangelo completely indifferent with bluff catcher in this spot). So Ivey needs to be turning some kind of Kh hand into a bluff with at least 9 combos, and if he does not do it this often then Petrangelo can lay this down. But I would not put it past Ivey to be bluffing a spot like this, it just seems like a dicey spot to bluff for Ivey given he is facing a fairly uncommon line and his opponent is fairly polarized to a flush or bluff. So based off the fact that Ivey does not have a slam dunk great bluffing spot here, I like folding the 32. Even if Ivey is overbluffing this spot somehow, it was not likely that he was based off the way the hand played out, so I like playing safe and maybe over folding these spots a bit. But now if we are underdefending based off this logic, Ivey can start bluffing us wide and making a sick profit doing so, which means we must be careful in these spots to construct our calling range in a less exploitable way. So make sure if you underdefend this spot that you are not against a player who is capable of reading you as a player who will fold most of their hands to this raise. Or you will likely get owned. Sick hand I really enjoyed, make more vids Vanessa

[@Way2fast4u82]

thepokerfish awesome

[@michaeljohn910]

There’s no way Ivey was thinking on this level during this game

[@killerra]

He thinks below that level?

[@effortlessawareness8778]

You act like petrangelo would know the frequency that ivey would bluff with king of hearts. Sure if petrangelo had every hand that phil ivey played mapped out he might get a accurate statistic but how many keycard flush drse bluffs has petrangelo actually seen ivey do? Does he scower the internet searching for all the video clips of all televised clips of phil ivey playiing? How many key card fkush draw bluffs have u seen do on televised poker? I dont think there is more than one or 2. Do you actually think the# of televised hands ivey has played is a statistically significant sample size to gauge these bluffing frequencies. absolutely not, its the tip of the iceberg of the # of habds he has played in his lifetime. more accurate indicators would simply be how often is he raising all in on my river-bet in a tournament whether he is capable of raising all in on the river against me and my line with bluffs. another more sccurate indicator against players would be live reads but in case of phil ivey that might be hard, hes a great liar. But lookin at statsand wondering how many king high hesrt bluffs he woukd have is such an unaccurate measurement or indivation on how frewyently he actually does this. Phil ivey is not thinking about making sure he does this ~27.7% of the time rtc. he himself has stated he gauges his play with the habds hes being dealt, is he card dead or getting alot of premiums and bases his table image off of that To dictate his play

[@jamesevans2507]

Doug, raising FDs (like here OTF) is something old school upswing style gets very wrong. This is the worst FD to raise flop and the higher the FD the more often it should be raised. This is because when the flush comes in and the pot is bloated from the flop raise it's crucial to be on the better end of the flush vs flush cooler. So it's correct to put money in by raising higher flushes and coolering opponent's lower flushes, not donating with 3 high flush when it gets in.

Joshua Patrick I also wonder if Nick has any form of check raising range on the turn. Hard to balance both a lead and x/r range but he is elite. If so, K10 with a heart does make sense as a hand to put in the x/r range as it has stronger equity if the turn is checked back and we arent given a chance to bluff than a hand like K8 with a heart. But I'm not sure if he has a check raising range and if not, I don't see why K10 with a heart wouldn't be in the turn lead range at least some proportion of the time.

Great hand analysed like a boss :P . I dont get it though... How come it would make more sense to call with middling to lower flushes over higher flushes if ivey's is bluffing with Kh or Qh in this spot? Is it because a hand like QhTh or Th8h would be blocking hard Iveys bluffing range?

[@Nick-xu7ns]

nik predom yes. If we know that Phil bluffs with Kh and Qh type hands (which is something we can't know for sure but for this hypothetical we will assume), then having K high and Q high flushes means that Phil's raise range on the river is more value heavy than it normally would be as we block the hands with which he has to bluff.

[@Nick-xu7ns]

we also don't expect a 6 high flush to raise for value (it would value own itself against our flush heavy range). So all flushes have the same theoretical value meaning we'd be more inclined to call with a 5 high flush than a K high in that assumption.

[@yikemoo]

Here's a fantastic "trick" to pull in a poker game... Say your opponent bets the river with what you think is an overpair, two-pair kind of hand with possible straights and flushes out there that you missed. You raise him and he goes into the tank and you just poker-face it. After a minute of uncomfortable thinking the player asks you "If I fold will you show?" Give him a little laugh and say something like "I never show for free, but you give me $20 I'll show you after you fold." Inevitably they'll kind of stare you down, and you start hustling the price down. "OK, $20's a lot, $5 and I'll show you." I've used this a handful of times over the years and I've never had a recreational player actually call the bluff. Sometimes they give you the money to see, other times they just fold satisfied they got information out of me. I've run one variation of this play where I had the ace that would have made the nut flush and my other hole card would complete the straight and told the player he could pick one card to look at if he gave me $20 and he could decide after seeing it if he wants to call or fold. He shot me the 4 chips, I let him pick the card he wanted (it was the ace) and he snap-folded after seeing it. Probably my proudest hustle ever.

[@bslay4r]

Wouldn't be better to lead the turn with QhTx or KhTx as a bluff? I mean if I check/call those and get there on the river should I lead then? That's very transparent. I rather lead the turn with those. Maybe add Qh8x but I wouldn't even call the flop with Kh8x. Btw very good video, I like the part with the turn lead range.

If you didn't flash your photo, I would have thought the picture behind you was of Vanessa Selbst

1k for a course on upswing 😂 oh sure if you use that you'll be a high roller and make flushes and lay it down knowing you beat by a ⛵ 🤣

[@videonikita]

if you spend 1k on a poker course, you should not play poker

[@macrovigilance]

a bit sketchy going for the flush when you hold the lowest cards of the flush suite (not a line of play I like to follow) but mucho kudos for the fold at the end.

Peters only has 6500 left and Smith at 34k... I think your range analysis is a little wide considering the 2 short stacks. Ivey has never been someone looking to ladder up but this is an opponent who could break him.
