HJ 100bb Defense
HJ 100bb Defense
Term: 劫位100BB防守 HJ 100bb Defense Refers to the defensive range and strategy used when holding approximately 100 big blinds in the hijack HJ position against an early position raise.
Overview
HJ 100bb Defense is a poker defense strategy for a specific stack depth (100 big blinds) and position (hijack). The hijack is in the middle-late position but not the last to act, so the defense must balance value and risk.
Chip Depth Impact
100bb is standard deep stack, allowing a wider defense range due to high implied odds against the raiser's range. However, deep stacks amplify positional disadvantages, requiring caution.
Defense Range
- Calling Range: Typically includes medium pairs (e.g., 77-TT), suited connectors (e.g., T9s, 87s), weak suited aces (e.g., A2s-A5s), etc. These hands can easily form strong draws postflop.
- 3-bet Range: Primarily value hands (e.g., QQ+, AK) mixed with a few bluffs (e.g., A5s, KQo) to avoid overpolarization.
Strategic Considerations
- Opponent's Range: Assuming a tight opening range (e.g., UTG), calls require stronger hands. If the opponent is loose, the defense can be relaxed.
- Postflop Play: Be cautious postflop to avoid large pot mistakes. Typically adopt a "defensive" approach, favoring calls over 3-bets in most situations.
Adjustments
Adjust defense breadth based on opponent tendencies or dynamics. For example, against aggressive 3-bettors, reduce calling and increase 4-betting.
