Video overview.
This hand history review style video looks at 9 situations where the Hero is facing a 3bet before the flop.
This is not a "how to 3bet" video – it's a guide to playing against 3bets, rather than an all-in-one guide to 3betting. It's still equally awesome information though.
SplitSuit looks at examples of facing 3bets from a wide variety of 3betting scenarios. These include facing 3bets:
- From both early and mid position
- When villain resteals or squeezes (when we are the through caller).
The overwhelming focus is on preflop strategy, although some hands are played out (and analysed) through to the river.
A lot of the hand histories involve pocket pairs and playing OOP, so if you're rusty on either of those you're in for even more of a treat.
