Mystery Hand : And the winners are...

Thanks to everyone that played in the hand. Before giving the results, we asked @Nicolas Levi , top pro and poker mentor to give us his thoughts on the hand and how Sam played it:


@Nicolas Levi:

Preflop:


The plan to be aggressive is ok in theory, but with 20 big blinds there’s just not enough room to wiggle and be creative postflop. I would raise with medium pairs (77+) and strong suited connectors (TJs+) and good broadway cards (KJs+). I drop Aces below AJ unless I feel super confident with a very small suited ace, giving me more options postflop.


Flop:


This is a tough one. One the one hand we only get one caller, but on the other hand we have a flop texture that isn’t perfect.
Option 1: Betting small:
Some people like to CBet here and there’s nothing really wrong with that, in this case you should be really small (6 to 11k). You’re not making him fold if he has a draw or a good pair anyway, unless you go all in and risk 56k to win 24k with almost no info, that’s just not good poker.

 

Option 2: Checking


Checking is my play here: because I usually barrel on the flop, it makes my oppenents suspicions when I don’t. They revert to play abc in order to minimize risk. t’s almost impossible for villainto check back a draw or a pair on this board anyway, so really you’re getting a ton of information for free. If he bets you probably would have lost anyway and get away cheaper, if he checks back you have a green light to steal on the turn with a much high success rate!

Now Sam hasn’t got this aggressive image on day 2, meaning both options are roughly equal.


Turn:

My play: Bet big
The key to play the turn is this: with our small bet on the flop, vilains can put us on a draw, nothing, a medium pair. He would raise all in his strong hands or even strong draws most of the time, hoping to protect or semibluff. Because he didn’t, we can safely assume he has some of the weakest hands that don’t fold, maybe a jack, or a low draw. Whatever he has he doesn’t like it so much. I bet big enough to stop his curiosity. 20k makes me feel really committed and if it doesn’t work, I might just stop here, depending on my read and the last card.



Conclusion:


I think Sam made a mathematical error opening preflop, but he showed a lot of skills and courage postflop to get out of a tough spot. My hat’s off to him: I have much more respect for people that try to change gears and stay cool than people that play it safe all the time :) Cool hand Sam!






Best Analyses:

Overall Winner @GregHPoker wins €100 of cash game tickets for his Round 2 analysis. Greg’s thought process iss very technical .. and spot on. Greg considers his range, his image, and what different betting amounts would accomplish to make the best of a bad situation. Strong poker here. Here are some extracts.


@GregHPoker :


Preflop: fold

[...] we severely butchered the hand the begin with leaving ourselves in a terrible spot. [...] with 20 Bigs we should be "switching it up" like this approximately never.


Flop: bet


As played, if we both had 100 BB stacks we should always be CBetting this board. We have backnut flush draws and straight draws, its a texture where we shouldn't be getting raised very often (we block nut flush draw a [...] Most of the time we are just gunna bet and take it down [...] We also are in a good spot to triple barrell a lot of run outs putting opponent to tough decisions bc if he calls his range is capped while ours is not… With 20 Bigs it's less than ideal, [...] but our plan shouldn't change and we should still CBet for the reason this board hits us harder than it hits them…

 

Bet size


[...] assuming we opened to 8k I'd bet somewhere in the 9k neighborhood, i believe it accomplishes the same thing as 15k. It also leaves us 47k behind in a 42kish pot, so that we can shove a lot of turns and put opponent (w the same stack size) to a tough decision for all his chips against an unknown UTG raiser who has shown aggression

Mystery Hand : Results!

This week we’ve revealed a hand played during an undisclosed TV table.

First, discover our Mystery new partner who will soon be putting up a €7,000 freeroll prize pool for RankingHeroes!

 

Now is the time to reveal what happened: watch the video and see how you did compared to our Hero, Sam Thorne, getting creative during Unibet Open Copenhagen!

 

Unibet Open CopenHagen, TV Table, Day 2.

The blinds are 1,600/3,200-400 ante. Day 2 has just started and you bring a stack of 65,000 at the TV table, an average stack. Nobody really knows you - as this is your first major event, and you expect people may underestimate you.

You are first to speak at a table of 9 players. Before you look at your hand, you decide that you will be on the aggressive side early on today, set an image for later.

You decide to mix things up, and raise with A♠9♥

Everybody passes except the Button, a young grinder, who has you covered by less than a big blind. There is now 24,400 in the pot

The Flop Comes Q♠J♠4♦ 

Action is on you. You have 56,800 left.

You bet 6,400, less than a quarter of the pot.

Your opponent takes a full minute to think about it, and calls without blinking. There is now 36,400 in the pot

The Turn: 10♥

You quickly bet 25,000, half your remaining chips

For an agonising 4 minutes, your opponent thinks about it and looks like he can go either way. Finally he folds, and you show your bluff without saying anything.

 

Our Jury is now reviewing your responses and we’ll announce the winners soon.
Just to be clear, we do not think there is only one way to play this hand and we’ll give you our reasoning for rewarding the best analyses... whether or not you acted like Sam.

 

Thanks to Unibet and the Unibet Open for sponsoring this quizz.

 

As we told you, Unibet and RKH will organize a championship with a €7,000 prize pool, only for RankingHeroes!

on the turn, an ace or a peak, maybe a blank, are the best news

bet 9k an the best cards for us on turn are two an then a 3 two low cards that dont change a thing if we believed ace high was good or that our opponents holdings were not strong enough to call our river bet all in

It's possible to play a suited hand like a connector 4♦5♦ but also  3♦5♦Raise in this position assumes a big hand, perhaps a premium, especially whith only 20BB, and not a hand also hardly playable face to a re-raise.
