Best hand choice and analysis I've seen in a long time

[@UpswingPoker]

such a sick one!

[@Dan-zz5yv]

Really well explained

[@2lowkey100]

The balls on him to make that buff… respect

[@charlieyou97]

Insane hand holy shit

[@Dylan-vm4gl]

Does AT make sense for value or would he raise pre with that?

[@roumi123]

eeh wait a second? is now uri commenting MTTs? that'd be the best news i ve heard in a while !

[@SFreedberg1]

I'm really curious what Juan does on a blank river......

[@eric5758]

Wouldnt all the value combos like AK AJ and KK and TT all jam preflop Blind vs blind even with heavy icm pressure? And on the river I think most flush’s would just call the bet on a board that wet so isn’t BB just basically filled with bluffs and capped AT for value? Which I’m guessing is why the call was made

[@teeraw4575]

youre vastly underestimating how much icm pressure is on the bb in this spot being 2nd in chips having sb the only person that can bust him. his risk premium is so high getting the money in pre is a total disaster so hes not 3 betting AT or AJ here his 3 bet range is probably AK/QQ+ . (Maybe AQ but idk)

[@eric5758]

@@teeraw4575 if that was true tho then why would villain call with just the straight if the line is extremely underbluffed if icm pressure was that much wouldnt you want to 3 bet with AJ and maybe fold to a jam if ranges are really that tight then the A would block so much of the jamming range which is why I think the jam was called with just a straight

Hello Uri! Can you explain better how you idea of "how bigg pot my hand wants" work? Obviously we cant just bet small with weak hands and bigg with strong hands. Can you deep dive more?

[@WillieBeamenApex]

What I can take away is, in an ideal world, what size pot does my hand want to have a good chance to show down and win. If you see a bet bigger, then the answer is, my opponent is repping value better than my hand, therefore I’m now bluff catching. Conversely, if you are betting bigger than the pot your hand wants to play, you are now bluffing. As in, you are choosing to represent a hand better than what you have. You can bet any size with any hand, it just changes whether that bet is for value or is it a bluff.

Check out the earlier videos in this series from Uri to learn more about that. Here's the playlist with all of them kzbin.info/www/bejne/oJOvZZh8aJZonLM It's one of the fundamental principles taught in his new Poker Blueprint course.

IM still trying to master the skill of winning allin on the flop with the flopped nuts vs .5% equity. Ive lost 4 of these in the past 3 months along with 15+ losses vs flopped str8s or flushes vs one pair. Honestly i dont know how anyone wins on GG mtts. No one ever folds any pair preflop for any amount

[@denske1272]

That's just poker, you'll get used to it if you keep playing. Try to remember tho, our minds are wired in a way where we remember negative/unexpected events much easier and more strongly than we do expected/good events.

[@theeducatedguesser1837]

Basically the point when this hand goes off rails is already on the flop. In position player with heavy ICM pressure should not have raising range on AAK. After flop it is a matter of who overplays their hand more. You see these kind of hands all the time in 5$ MTT´s. One poker youtuber (Bluffthespot?) did funny video series where HS reg would analyze hand histories without knowing was it played on NL10 or NL10000. Those were super funny videos.

[@NoLongerGrilling]

Exactly my first thought as soon as i saw this hand. Raising is so suicidal with ur much weaker range there, regardless whether is ICM or not. But, if you are going to construct a raising range then do it with your best hands that can stack off like AJ. Not A8o, that makes u super susceptible to flop 3bs and barrel offs since you can’t really stack off with A8

[@NoLongerGrilling]

After that major mistake OTF however, both of them played it amazingly well, if not perfectly. QJ with a heart would’ve been perfect but that’s nitpicking.

[@skydivingwatermelons]

Duuuude

URI WE ARE SUPER ANGRYU, WHERE IS THA COURSEEEEEE!! GRRRRRRRRRRRAWRORRW

[@mriantimothy]

Amazing hand. Great analysis. I bet your hand reading is incredible. However, your name reading is profoundly bad…. Joe Ann. A Hispanic guy named Juan… and your guess is Joe Ann. lol wow. Honest mistake and made my day. Wow. That’s just great.

[@SFreedberg1]

lol, I caught that. my eyesight is not great and I had to get of this couch and go up to the tv - I said it's Juan!

[@UpswingPoker]

I laughed so hard when I heard Uri pronounce Juan
