  1. i dont mind the turn call because if you do make the nuts villain aint folding whatever he has been betting with, not for another 250. so i think you are getting the required odds to call there. also, another ace will be good sometimes and it might be possible for the board to pair giving you a better two pair, as well. if you miss you could save the 250 too…i mean, why not? still money.

  2. I really like the way he played this. And Bart he needed about 21-22% equity to call turn not “high 20s” like you said. And run on poker stove a range with some 2ps but mostly flushes sets and some random bluffs and you’ll easily have upper 20s when only needed like 22 so the straightforward call and playing rivers straightforwardly (check-decide on ones we dont improve and bet the ones on which we do) hero will be playing GTO

  3. I think the turn is a call and donk jam any heart and check fold everything else. This gives us odds to call the turn with a bit of implied odds on the river

  4. I like a 3bet on the flop, I think his range is wider than just 2P+, [JT,KJ,QJ,] with a heart, also could have QQ/KK that didn't 4b pre so the ratio of nutted stuff actually isn't that bad I think he can occasionally stack off with a worse hand here…. TT w a heart as well… 3 more combos we play well against

    also 3b size was a little small so those off suit broadways are in this guys range here, if he is L/P then I see him calling with those hands pre

  5. Hero should be checking flop to avoid exactly what happened with being raised. As played, it's obviously a call on the flop and a check/fold on the turn. The call is break even over the long run IF you get the remaining implied odds of $285 behind if a heart hits. The fact that Bart said its a check fold OR A JAM is pure comedy. Why would we ever be jamming that turn when we are close to 100% behind villains range here?

  6. Great demonstration of “equity” is BEST case scenario, so here he doesn’t have 9 outs (hearts) 10, Q & 7 are out. So he has 6 to win, 2 to chop assuming no h & no 10 were folded or burned, so most likely he’d be lucky to be a 10% to win

  7. Flop decision to check:
    For those that you prefer to check the flop, is your decision influenced by hero being out of position?
    What about heads-up Vs 3-way? Do you like checking in both scenarios?
