range is prob really polarized

wtf why do people love to say this so much... his range is not polarized.

I kinda agree vill's range is pretty polarized between bluffs/s-bluffs and Ax. Potting a marginal hand like Tx on the turn doesn't make sense and probably nothing a passive player would do.

You'd be surprised at the random stuff bad players do HU. I def bet this river, probably like 3/5 pot, he'll call with Ts a lot, and even some worse pairs. He'll have an A sometimes but not enough to really be concerned.

Yeah, but to me it seems like this random stuff is most likely made by air rather than Tx. If we think he calls down with less than Tx then it's an obv v-bet.

My hu experience is limited though so I might not at all understand the problem here.

he's not 'bluffing'. he's 'betting because he has a pair'. and on the river he wont be 'snapping off a bluff' he'll be 'calling because he has a pair'. stop trying to think like fish, you guys arent good at it.

pretty standard b/f, i dont think it's close esp against a "bad passive fish station"

[tuuufts]

and people who are saying range is "polarized" between aces/bluffs dont play HU much

don't agree with TWP often, but this is bang on.

really good point. just get one level above these guys and play accordingly. playing live has really helped me with this because the fish talk out loud about everything they do and i can just sit and listen and learn.

probably slightly more Ax than Tx hands in his range but enough other pairs (7x/88/etc) that we are good above the breakeven 50% point. i don't think this kind of player will do anything but call or fold here, as well.

you'll get looked up fairly light the way the hand went down, so go ahead and bet
