nittyfish 10min : you check/fold 2nd nuts on the river and don't discuss this hand which was interesting
Do you think he can call on this turn with A high ? If yes the 2nd barell with K high is terrible...
But you were talking about another hand so I guess you didn't realise you rivered 2nd nuts.

BTW italians don't have acces to pokerstars.com so beppe is probably not italian :)

Yes I must have forgotten the hand and I definitely didnt realize i HAD the 2nd nuts.That being said he proablably had qq kk jj there and I dont think he turns qq kk into a bluff.In game I definitely thought he would fold the ace highs and hence bet, since he did jam the river I assume he made an ambitious turn call with Ace high.

As far as I know they do speak italian in switzerland or some kind of dialect of it, so thereeeee still might be a chance:).In any case our friend beppe ended up being a weaker player .:)
Rolling chances pretty good content in all your vids zaza btw Ari Gold is a champ

bustedAA min29:43 Utg open(Laggy V/u said),Mp calls and BTN SQ (pretty active V)...totally agree with cold 4b here/perfect spot....My question is...Would u do this with 52o???
I mean If the BTN goes for shove your plan is to fold(I think),what if BTN choose to call 4b???
What will be the difference between any two and AJo???and how will u play OOP postflop?
And what it will be the perfect sizing for this cold4b...because we don't want BTN to call(also what will be his calling range?KK+)


And 1more,that hand u decide to talk about it with Christos a lot..
U have 88's and choose to transform youre hand in to a bluff OTR,after the villain chck OTT on that A.
Would u do that on a 2d.Because vs Villain perceived range that K is a scare card like u said,but also the flush is complete...So u bet there because u want V to fold 99-QQ?
Also u said that a better play 4this hand will be : bet that A OTT and also bet most of the rivers,what if Villain shove over our bet?
I play NL50 and I have seen V doing this with JJ,chck/shove 3b pot .

I hope u can answer my question,good series ZAZA keep it going,Big FAN!!!

I wouldnt like doing it with 52o, cos I wanna have some blockers, like A K and there s many of those in my range, so my frequencies will be high enough by cold4betting those type of hands rather than do it with 100% of my range here.
The sizing I used in the vid was fine u can alter it from 2.3x-2.5x to his 3bet size.
I would usually cbet 25-35% of the pot on most boards, preferably low boards, since I expect his calling range to be some suited broadways here or aq aj , I also expect people to jam their qq jj for the most part cos of their vulnerability and me not being a nit.I can definitely see some people flat call AA to trap in his shoes, so once i got called on the flop I would usually give up unless i hadf piccked up a great card for my hand and alot of equity.

Im sorry I dont know which hand u are refering to.But if i recall correctly I had some showdown value on the turn and the river was such a card where villain would have a hard time herocalling with the vast majority of his range, so I like bluffing the river there for sure.I dont think its necessary to turn 88 into a bluff on a turn blank since our hand is going to be so good so often.Im talkiing about this vaguely remembering the board texture, so sorry if its not as accurate of an answer as u wanted to.
If I were to bet 88 on an ace turn and get jammed on I would most certainly fold, since most cbet ch jam lines I see from ppl at 50-200 nl are going to be for value.
