From Bryn's perspective: Berkey mostly raises with a 6 on turn. Therefore, probably not a 6 and some kind of draw. River comes flush and he bets after it gets checked to him. Probably has a flush. Straight is likely no good, and since he likely doesn't have a 6, I can rep boats. Berkey: Bryn bets when boat hits, but check-raises when flush gets there on river. Since I have the flush, less likely he does; but IF he did have one, he would fire on river as well. Therefore, likely no flush. What hand check raises? A boat that trapped on river would.

The title here should be, "Berkey Making the worst Play Ever". Matt Berkey could be getting check raise bluffed here, because of his volume of raw aggression. Bryn Over-Valued his Straight and Berkey's brain is skewed, to thinking he can make these incredibly Polar moves, that are totally outside the fundamentals of the game. Folding a Q-high flush here to a Check-Raised, 1on1 pot from one of the best players in the world, is just plain wrong. We have seen Matt Fold winners before, that were total HEAD-SCRATCHERS.
@fevolenko39954 жыл бұрын
What about more basic maths? He beats all trips and knows Berkey can easily fold all the low flushes. He knows Berkey will often try to steal plus also value bet with a HUGE range of hands. His reraise is super strong but he never expects Qhigh flush to fold. Based on pot and stack sizes i think its a bad fold. Berkey levelled himself simple as that. Ultimately we always say we cant change the ranges we decided. He called turn for a flush. He hit his flush. Then guy check raises a hand that makes sense to me woukd check raise - Berkeys % of his range that flushes is small so def check raise the rivered straight. For same reason Berkey gotta call beating straight and trips and pay off house or higher flush. If Bryn was all in i can fold the Q high flush but for 3x its a crying snap call for me..

@williammccabe21294 жыл бұрын
Kenney's play worked out very well, but if I were Berkey, part of me would wonder why Kenney would check a full house on the river instead of going for the simple value bet, since a flush would likely call anyway. Also, by checking a boat on the river, Kenney does risk losing value from Berkey's hands that would check behind, e.g. trips or (as Berkey himself muttered) even a flush. Therefore, Berkey should ask himself whether Kenney would really play a full house this way on the river.
@mindw0rking3 жыл бұрын
Why not? If you say flush gonna call anyway he would extract more value by check-raising than simply betting
@BobWhoosta13 жыл бұрын
@@mindw0rking He can lose value from hands that would call a bet on the river, but not bet for value themselves. Betting vs. check raising is a difficult decision with a nutted hand, but if your opponent has more check back hands that he would have called then he does hands that will bet, then call a check raise, you should be betting, and not check raising.
@alistairwillock72664 жыл бұрын
The one thing that the guys didn't discuss is the price that Kenney offered Berkey on the river: 3-to-1. That price looks like pure value - it's saying "call me" to a good 6, or better. If you think Berkey is betting for value on on river, and you're offering that price when you raise - given the action on the turn - what hands are you hoping to be called by? Conversely, if you're bluffing, what hands are you trying to get to fold? Note that Berkey, while described as loose/sticky by Grant and Jonathan here, also has made some huge (and sometimes incorrect) folds in streamed cash and tournament positions. I'm not making a claim about what Kenney's true intentions were here, but I think that they definitely needed to discuss the check-raise's sizing in this analysis.

I don't think that Berkey should be folding a flush here, and therefore, I don't think Kenney should be trying to get a flush to fold. Especially since Kenney has the 7 of diamonds and he blocks a lot of the weaker flushes, making it more likely that if Berkey has a flush, that he has a stronger flush (like a Queen high flush which really should be calling here). Although Q3 is too loose of an open, so the fact that it is Matt Berkey changes things a bit.

My 2c Berkey overfolded, Kenney was trying to get value from trips but he blocks all the 76 combos, a lot of Berkey's flushes have the 8d which would allow him to call because the 8d blocks a lot of full houses. It might look mythical fold better and get called by worse but my guess is, if you put this in a solver, this play is -ev

@stufflymcstuff4 жыл бұрын
the points they made could be true and it still could be a bad bluff. The fact that Brynn was trying to bluff with a straight should give you an indication as to how bad of a value bet with 6x would be so not sure why you're taking it for granted that Berkey would bet with them much less call the raise. you're also mistaken in suggesting that brynns only value here is full houses - berkeys line makes full houses very unlikely and so brynn can easily be raising the nut flush here which is why having the Ad is probably more relevant than having a 6 as a blocker. maybe Berkey bets half pot with Ad6x and then calls but that's a tiny subset of his bet range. you have to range Berkey here as having mostly J high flushes + for value, especially from brynns perspective given that he holds the 7 and that most of the lower flushes left in the deck will have been open ended on the flop and either bet the flop / raised the turn or are hands like 95dd or T3dd which even Berkey is likely to fold pre. brynns raise was to 15k to win 15k, so it has to get folds half the time to be better than a fold. is Q3dd even below the 50th percentile of berkeys hands? it's probably below the 50th percentile of his value range and right around the 50th percentile overall. if we take Berkey at his word that he was seriously considering checking back (or sizing down I guess) then we can probably surmise that this is actually close to the bottom of his value range, in which case this bluff could work and it may still be a bad bluff depending on what he does when he has K or A high flushes. … and this is ignoring the obvious in that even if the raise is better than folding, calling may still actually be better.
@davidfong78484 жыл бұрын
I doubt that Bryn knows his hand isnt good. I think he just knows what Matt's range is, which is 6x and flushes mostly but never any boats. And I think he knows his own range which is 6x, flushes, boats, a few other made hands and hardly any bluffs (natural bluffs wink wink). The tough part for Matt is that because his range is capped Bryn can probably XR with king high flushes and better for value

Half of this "best play of all time" theory is true, bryn Kenney was trying to get called by a six. The part about him thinking he can get flushes to fold is not true. This river x/r was purely for value and nothing else. Berkey simply overthought the hand and because he knows that he would've bet a lot of his 6x on the flop he can't expect bryn to be going this thin with this line.
