Floating?
villain is a good reg, better than the average winning reg....likely sees me as an average winning reg with little or no other info...
turn sizing should be more i suppose but i expect a wide cu range, a wide cbet range, and a wide check fold range on the turn. River i have to bet now...missed flush draws etc. and i just make it smaller to be believable and to give me a good price....

River bet looks super polarized since you should almost never have a straight in that spot and your sizing is getting called by Ax KK-88 and 7x IMO...and many one pair Ace hands you would be holding would check behind in that spot...in addition he would be checking all of the former hands to induce you with a missed flush draw out there.
I just don't see your line as believable and I see it getting snapped off by everything but missed naked flush draws
I think that's reasonable to put most regs on early in tournaments. I'm not a fan of the float into double barrel here since he's gonna potcontrol the ace a big % of the time and thus I'd rather go a bit bigger on the turn to define the hand a little bit more
Cus I don't think its as wide as I think you think it is...
Attachment not found.
I think you probably do... lol
I have to say I didn't think the good regs would be that wide pre ante...
Is that an assumption, or do you have data to back it up? Not saying you're wrong, just curious. In my experience most regs are nitty pre ante. Which is why lots of them have HUD stats that seem nitty overall, even though they are jamming/calling wide late game.
Personally, I'd open CO something like 20% (22+,A2s+,K8s+,QTs+,JTs,T9s,98s,87) I think, with minimal tables going, and less as I increase number of tables. I would like to consider myself a good reg, but that is likely far from the truth... So not sure what that means...
in this range you fold ako
edit: also you were comparing this reg to you but his class is one step above mine or yours ( if you said you were above me id believe you)
haha i like ur attitude
Guess that was a misleading question.... I was just asking if you've checked ranges in ur hh, or just assuming. Anyways, I won't doubt batman anymore haha.
and how on earth did I miss AKo? Ooooooo Copy Paste error. Sry guys.
Lets try again...
20% (22+,A2s+,K8s+,QTs+,JTs,T9s,98s,87s,A8o+,KJo+)
You can be bluffed this easily? ha.
In case you havent been watchin, my ROI is heading in the wrong direction now that Im playing a decent # of games.
It still seems like your asking me if im just clicking buttons?>:D^-^:D:bs::):(
Keep in mind, being a very good reg that he is...i expect to play him everyday.
ya thats your range. expect him to be slightly looser than you maybe, and knowing that im an average reg on the button (therefore tightish), my point is only that mine and your given ranges for him aren't very far off at all.
that being said stealing here is meh...but being in position vs fishy blinds is the nutz
Edit: Given the minbet he's probably a bit wider than some, probably many playable hands looking to play a pot in position. Less small pairs, more suited cards and connectors some broadway and a few nut hands to even it out would be my guess. I don't think that's optimal though, with 3k starting stacks I'd like it A LOT more and with 5k even more
a sidenote is that that's probably the reason people are able to run a much much higher roi from FO's and deepstack events compared to SnG mtt's
.........
some people folds small pair from the cutoff. My point was that his reason for 2xing probably revolves around playing cute hands rather than a tight range, 2xing a tight range from the CO makes no sense at all this early
EDIT: also wasn't sure but i think you implied he might be raising different sizes from that position.....2x is his entire range...
Anyway, your reasoning is why I would love to see you make it 120-130 something pre
how to turn kqs into a bluff
i was actually curious about this, but it didn't seem right, the initiative to me is he is cbets almost every flop
isn't threading fun?
