Wtf is Snowie doing?
The upper one is Snowie´s opening range UTG. The one on the bottom is Snowie´s defense range vs a MP 3B (either calling or 4b).
Snowie defends around 27,31% of its range against a pot sized raise. This means MP could 3B any two cards to profit.
Can somebody explain why that is? I thought Snowie is close to GTO preflop?
I tried to come up with some explanations myself, but couldn´t really come to a conclusion with which I could say: "that must be it".

No that is not the case as MP must not only consider UTG but also all other players so UTG has to defend way less then in a heads up game as MP cant 3 bet him to dead without getting raised by CO/BTN/SB/BB
This is a very dangerous yet common flaw in terms of applying theory. Forget about MDF btw, as it doesn't apply to most situations and is not particularly useful expect for simple toy games and some river spots aswell.
Akissv7 is right, UTG is not the only one defending againts the 3bet, there are 4 players still involved, therefore UTG needs to defend less than MDF in theory.
To comment on snowie preflop ranges, I think they are honestly pretty good. They seem to get a bad rep sometimes but I think they're really good as a starting point if you don't have any other resources, they get you pretty far I would say.
Makes sense, thank you guys.
