Barak ‘iWasOnly17’ Wisbrod and ‘MunEZ‘ have been playing the biggest pots of late in the high-stakes no-limit hold’em games on CoinPoker. Playing $200-$400 with a $67 ante at the four-max tables, the rest of the players have left these two to duke it out heads up.
Wisbrod had the upper hand in their most recent session. He won about $250,000 from MunEZ to close out February, one of the last big swings before a massive software update hit the client and put a temporary pause on the high-stakes action.
MunEZ Bluffs Off With Air
MunEZ raised to $1,000 on the button, Wisbrod made it $4,200 in the big blind, and MunEZ called.
The flop came 9♥9♠7♦, and Wisbrod continued for $3,300. MunEZ called. Wisbrod checked on the 6♠ and called a bet of $11,199. On the 2♦ river, Wisbrod checked, MunEZ shoved for $34,272, and Wisbrod called.
MunEZ had K♥5♥ for an airball, and Wisbrod showed Q♣9♦ for trips. He won a pot worth $106,076.

Hand Analysis
Preflop, Wisbrod was supposed to call with his hand, although slightly weaker offsuit Q-X holdings mix in a decent amount of bluff raises. So, the three-bet is aggressive but reasonable.
Betting the flop with trips was good, and MunEZ had a close decision against the fairly large sizing of around 40% of the pot. Ace-high and king-high hands that have double backdoors are indifferent facing this size. MunEZ could mix in some folds and bluff raises, but calling is fine.
Equities between the two players’ ranges are close on the turn. So, the solver likes a strategy that features more checking than betting from the big blind. It’s important to remember that the board will change pretty often on this texture, and the small blind has trips or better much more often than the big blind.
Wisbrod does check, and MunEZ goes for a bluff that the solver really likes. Bluffing with king-high hands here forces a lot of immediate folds from stronger ace-high holdings.
Wisbrod is actually supposed to jam the turn with most of his strong trips while slow playing his weaker ones. However, it’s possible he played a strategy that didn’t include any raises in this spot.
Shoving the river is another good play from MunEZ. Unpaired hands that block straights are the most frequently used combos for bluffing on the river here. MunEZ finds the jam but runs into the top of Wisbrod’s range.
All-In Overbet Backfires for Wisbrod
Wisbrod raised to $1,000 on the button, MunEZ raised to $4,400, and Wisbrod responded with a four-bet to $10,800. MunEZ called.
On the 10♣7♦4♣ flop, MunEZ checked, Wisbrod bet $8,800, and MunEZ called. The turn was the 3♦, and MunEZ checked. Wisbrod shoved all in for $32,930 effective.
MunEZ quickly called since they had 6♥5♥ for the nuts, so Wisbrod was drawing dead with Q♥Q♣.

Hand Analysis
Four-betting is the normal play with queens at this stack depth, and MunEZ has an easy call with suited connectors. Stacks are still reasonably deep, and the connectors won’t always be dominated by pocket pairs.
On the flop, Wisbrod uses the appropriate bet size. Pocket queens and jacks are the most frequently bet pairs on the 10-high flop since they need protection from overcards.
Wisbrod calls, which is the best response. Only 6♣5♣ and 6♦5♦ do much shoving on the flop.
On the turn, the in-position player does a lot of jamming with queens and jacks for the same reasons that they play aggressively on the flop. The river is going to devalue these holdings pretty often, especially on a double-flush board. Aces and kings use more small bets and checks.
Interestingly, the solver does like checking with Q♦Q♣ specifically. That combo has more bluff-catching potential on the river and blocks some of the big blind’s weaker holdings like A-Q and K-Q, with or without a flush draw.
With Q♥Q♣, shoving is good. But like his opponent in the prior hand, Wisbrod runs into the top of his opponent’s range and gets stacked.
