Uhhh... What? You don't really ever need a polarized opening range if I understand anything about HU. Do you mean for 4betting???

i dont know what i mean mate haha, i just think you fold abit too much on the button pre flop...im prob opening 90% of hands OTB, you were like about 50% or something, you will prob get away with that at 5nl but the higher you go the higher the % will need to be...maybe 'polarized' is a wrong way to put it, im still a noob so bear with me bro lol......good vids though, you are easy to listen to, and it looks like its your thing now, keep them coming

Polarized range= Top or bottom of your range, nothing in the middle. So deff wrong wording.
I could be wrong but i doubt seriously he was folding 50% of the BTN.

What would your plan be to open 83o vs a villain that donks 80% of boards?

yep deffo wrong definition, i meant ATC's....but thats prob the wrong idea too, especially at the micros....

i would fold 83o pre, and wait till we have a hand that can connect with the board better...just wasting pre raises doing that all the time....reasonable?

Tbh I was prob raising close to 70% OTB on average for that vid. But it's def villain dependent, and I'd say that card strength is a bit more important at baby limits as people will tend toward loose passive and calling down.

Ducky and I recorded part 2, where we got interesting spots against a fish and were talking ranges and stuff like that.

5 minutes after recording, ducky realised he only recorded my audio and not his. How this is possible is a mystery but the video was duckied.

KQ hand at 43:20
Why would we raise that flop? Raising folds out all his bluffs and we only get called by better or shoved on with better. So I think raising there is pretty bad.
Didnt we call pre basically to hit that K and then let him hang himself on decent boards like this one?
Then I think as played and your almost always behind by the river.

Nice vid btw

yeah I think you are right - I really just try to do as much of my thinking out loud as possible when I make a 4-tabling video, because otherwise it's just too slow. The reason raising even crossed my mind was because people donk draws a lot, but I don't think that makes sense in this spot since he raised preflop and his range will be much narrower.

Agree we're almost always behind on the river. Only times we're not are on some rando triple barrel bluff that he just awkwardly decides to do for no reason, cause there's no way he can thin-value bet KQ here or anything like that.

Oh and thanks for watching. :)
