   Wow this is an awesome video man. When it first started, I was thinking “yea whatever buddy” but man well done, this is great. Also, as I’m playing this, I’m playing on full tilt 5cent/10cent blinds…. anyways, Im not really paying attention, just kinda playing killing time. I get 33 on the button, I flat call.. big blind, checks, flop comes 3JJ. he checks, I bet pot. he raises to $1, I call. Turn comes A, he bets $1, i go all in, he turns over J4, i win. I would have tried a small bet usually!

   I would not have run away with pocket 8’s that turned into a set on the flop cause then their wouldnt be any point in playing low pocket pairs anyway how often is it to people get sets? when I play online and i have a middle pair when i call i probably win 60% of the time so you think if you get raised with a set that you should fold? this video makes no sense…….. set vs set somebody should lose money because it rarely happens

   probably the WORST hand to illustrate your point. set over set, many people are going broke. second off, this was disguised well by the fact that you lead out with the nuts, on that board definitly the right move, but your range of hands by leading out is SO wide. AA, any big king. the turn doesn’t help cause its a dead card. i would hardly qualify a set of eights here a MEDIUM hand here.

   well, that’s my bad then. I guess I should have clicked the other option ? The option I clicked was, “Give me my score and report.” It then asked for my email then wanted money. Can I still get my score without having to take the test over ?

   @steveoinflorida Uh,..you don’t have to pay anything to get the score. You don’t even have to put in any information about yourself at all unless you want more info. And the test is very accurate.

   I also agree with Tom!!!

   I think a good player would have raised heros bets but in the end all the chips would be in the middle of the table.
   Your chance to hit a set with your pockets is about 11% (isn’t it) and even if you know hero is a tag you would probably set him tptk.
   i think its to unusual that you go broke on a higher set…
   (sry for my english)

   With 8-8 most would raise your flop bet after hitting a set and the flush draw on the board. Going all-in on river guarentees all possible missed draws fold. If he’s a LP ATM you should bet into him for a decent amount(1/2 PSB at the least), but if he’s a LAG type you may be better off checking to induce a bluff if he has a missed draw. If he has a decent made hand liks 10-10 or JJs then a smaller bet offering 5-1 or better pot odds should get called and might even invite a bluff raise.

    Plus, that play does not help you balance your range. Unless you over-bet the pot with a shove on busted draws/2nd pair regularly, that is….

    Agree with Tom. 95% or more of the known universe is going broke there.

    Personally, generally speaking, I’da bet more on the flop & turn, creating a bigger pot for the river, then value-betting 75%-100% of the pot or so. Then you get yer A9/A8 donks to call, but not laying down to the shove.

    I think yer concept is good, but that example is horrendous.

    I agree with this video, however…

    …however you’ve used a very bad example. Nobody’s going to fold a set of eights on a board like that. It doesn’t matter if it’s a low stakes donk or a high stakes pro. If you would make a small bet there, that guy would’ve raised you, so it would end up with all the chips in the middle anyway.

    So I got your point, but the video is not showing it.

    fake the signs of weakness to try to force a bet, and then shuv it in.

    this has worked great with me and my homegame groupe.

    great tip. although it does rely greatly on the profile of your opponents. its always good to know how your opponents play. in the situation you gave, you provided a typical “small ball” poker player, a play who likes to call a lot of keep his marginal pots low, but will just call and not raise.

    if we change the players at the table, to a lose agressive player, or a gambler, then maybe the best play is a small bet or maybe a value bet to try to antagonize a huge bluff. ~continued~
