Excellent vid, tks! People often make oblique references to board texture of flops and certain flops hitting villain's range hard, etc. Now it all makes a lot more sense and I have a better idea of how to explore this further.

Good vid!

I was playing with the range you gave, but not able to reproduce the value obtained for the range of hand you gave! especially with the first example with K8+ or K high+BDFD compare to 2 overs+BDFD

so, on 772 board

50-7% is about 510 combos

A high 124 combos --> 24% of the time (10% in your calculation)

K high + BDFD --> 3 to 5% of the time if you take K high or K8s+ (8% in the vid)

2 over +BDFD --> 10% of the time (2.5% in the vid)

For ace high. I think I might have toyed around with the range a bit and added all AT and AJ into to three betting range.

2 overs + BDFD isn't counting king high and high two overs w/ BDFDs.

Thanks for the vid Sam. Always enjoy your theory vids. Hope more are in the pipeline. Its a very simple concept that I didn't give much attention too. When I messed around on PPT I was just looking a raw equity's Range vs Range on flops. Makes much more sense to take it that step further and see not just the equity but how and why villain connects or doesn't connect.

Excellent video Sam, extremely useful

what is in your view the best way to improve flops texture reading? do you use flopzilla, see how often certain range hit different boards, learn by heart and implement it in with your c-betting strategy? any other useful tools / tips to improve at it? Thanks!

Is it vital to use a solver. Are there many winning players at mid to high stakes who never toy with these tools? I love to study, but prefer watching vids like this, i think i shpuld consider purchasing a solver and review my own hands. Is flopzilla best deal or PIO?
