A popular hand between Alec Torelli and Doug Polk at the Bike
Both solid pros and have popular YouTube channels
They both have reviews of this hand
Polk will play exploitative but he is more GTO
Alec knows GTO dead and will default to it but if he has a feel he will play exploitative
Alec will make hero calls
25, 50 cash game with a $100 straddle
Alec opens for $325 with J♣J♠
Doug raises from the button to $1025 with T♣8♣
To the flop
That is something Alec says on all his videos
A♠2♠7⋄
Alec checks, Doug bets $1250, Alec flats
Turn 3⋄
Alec checks, Doug bets $3175; Alec calls
River K♥
Alec check; Doug bets $6350, Alec makes a big call and takes down the pot
I get there are not a lot of poker mathematicians on this site. Doug goes to great length to justify the river bet on GTO. He says if he does not bet here then he cannot get enough GTO bluffs in. Is this proper GTO from Doug?
