Simplify BB Ranges (Hands with 0 EV)
Hello,
1) I'm trying to copy Pio Cloud BB Ranges (screenshots at the end of the post), are there a few rules of thumb that can help in order to do that (for instance I'm rounding everything to 1/4 and am wondering if there are further ways to simplify that)? Like how do you approach trying to copy a somewhat GTO BB Range?
2) a lot of hands are 0 EV so I'm reluctant to play them, is that necessary to do so (espacially since the rake in the Cloud Ranges is lower that mine)? Or does that only apply to some hands and not others? I imagine cutting hands that cannot make straight isn't a big deal but I don't know if I can do that with those that can.
For instance :
Vs a 15% 3 bb Opening Range A9-A6s are 0 EV and so are AJo and KQo.
Vs a 20% 3 bb Opening Range K8s-K7s are 0 EV and so are ATo, KJo and QJo.
I want to cut all of them (especially since Pio only plays them at some frequency so I'd have to waste time looking at the RNG only to fold them some of the time unlike the +EV hands that are either called or 3-Bet so are never a waste of time) but don't how big of an impact cutting the offsuit broadways would have. And if it does have an impact is it better to keep them or cut them and also change the entire range to make it less unbalanced.
Those are the 2 example ranges I'm talking about.

Thanks for reading, any answer/thought would be appreciated.
