The hand where the supernova 3bets you bvb with 55 that is obviously bad. What are your adjustments going to be against him in the future?

when i know that he has small pps in his range, it makes it easier to play postflop agianst him for one, ill be able to bluff him off the best hand more.
Also I think that alot of times when people 3 bet small pps they will get ai with them preflop as bluffs, So id also adjust my 4 bet/call it off range keeping that in mind.
Its also the simple fact that hes exploiting himself by 3 betting a hand that is already a profitable call.

Haven't watched the video so don't know the exact circumstances, just randomly ended up reading this, but 3betting small pairs in BvB has alot of merit against a SB that's opening wide, which I'm guessing is what you're doing since everyone in FR are nits and you could probably open 100% of SBs vs 90% of regs. The merit in 3betting them is that "junk" like 86s etc is flipping vs you so showdown value is poor, you don't have that great implied odds on hitting a set against a wide range eithr, and 55 blows for semibluffing too as you usually have 2-6 outs. I play 6max myself but BvB should be the same in FR and 6max. Alot of winning HSNL regs 3bet small pairs in BvB.

I really like your discussion of monotone boards about 10 minutes deep. very valuable information for ppl who just cbet that board everytime which im admiting i prolly do.
your Cbetsizing in the 3b pot at the end of the video was pretty large. was that because you knew u were jaming turn or do you usually bet so big.
thanks breh

ty for helping out here =). You made some good points I app it. Fwiw the hand in question I was an unknown villian and he had no idea how wide I was opening or how profitable it would be to flop a set against me. Would like to talk more about this hand on aim though.
