hmm seems a bit too thin to overbet turn and then vbet river like this with KQ

This is fairly standard and is very close to how a solver would play.

Yeah I asked him about this hand and he says it was just normal
Not cause of DNegs really

Just have both a stronger range in terms of strong combos but also shitloads of bluffing hands with so many gutters being picked up OTT that you get to add KQ also

He's probably one of the highest earning poker pros right now , doubt even Linus comes close
You wouldn't even believe how poker can be in 2018 :D

So if he is folding hands like QJ QT 99 TT he will be in trouble because of all the bluffing hands he shows up with, while if he is calling all of those he will get owned by the value range ?

he can prob fold 99 and TT because those only block bluffs and don't block any value combos

I'd need to analyze the hand or run it in pio to know
But yeah e.g. any hand like K8 should be better vs these large sizings than TT JJ and you got a lot of those in BB

And yeah basically if you're a live pro or a NL25 reg and decide whether he's bluffing or not and then call or fold most of your bluffcatchers you'll get raped by the strategy and someone who can add KQ in the mix and proper amount of bluffs

yeah thinking about it i actually like having some good Qx in our value range with this turn overbet. allows us to bluff much more frequently with our massive number of draws on turn. pretty often i seem to get called down by a hand like A8, doing this with KQ really punishes that.

i wonder how a turn check/raise would do versus this overbet strategy. OOP shouldn't have too many check/raises considering he only check/called flop, but it certainly seems possible to have some slowplays and maybe an occasional Q5s or something

interesting, thanks

how do you know who the top earning pro's are? You cant tell with all the live results and untracked stuff.

I doubt there are much bigger games than he plays in even possible

Or anyone better at poker who plays them in nlhe at least

I guess Trueteller is the mega rich one if he gets into the russian games
