well a lot of the game theory that i learned was from a NLHE HU book (and i never play NLHE) so getting more knowledgeable in general is never a bad thing and can often lead you to explore new stuff in your actual format. Come over to the dark side, you wont got back haha
You know it’s funny, I was playing in a 1/2 on the weekend, and my buddy Adam, he’s more of a live crusher doesn’t play online… was telling me about a 5/10/25 plo game he was at the weekend prior and that he won over 10k in that night. I was like that was insane I need to learn plo ��
The only leads i have on flush turns OOP are when the nut suit card hits, so Kh here. The reason being if you think about the overall range on this board yes OOP will likely have more flushes overall after x/c, but IP will still likely have more nut flushes (apart from on nut suit card where we could consider some leads) but will also still have all of the AA, and most of the TT/99 combos that continue. If you look at the equity graph, OOP is still at polarity disadvantage, so betting makes little sense since IP can continue when ahead, or just fold bluffs. Even on the Kh turns on this board it is quite tough to find leads because IP range is just a lot stronger on these heavy boards, but also the Kh comlpetes a straight and we tend to be a bit more passive when IP makes an additional category of strong hands. On non-straight completing nut flush card turns you can definitely find a good amount of leads for 1/3 pot, likely 20-25% of the time depending on the board. A very high frequency lead is when you have 3 or 4 of the suit, since you weight IP range more towards 2P / sets and want to get some value since they will check back a lot (especially non-nut flushes since you can't x/r them)
Would highly prefer if you mixed some monker or vision discussion in. Not really getting anything out of the “well we could do this, sometimes we could do that, I guess it’s fine”
Not trying to be rude but this is not what I’m paying for elite to hear random unsupported opinions. Strikes me as kinda lazy tbh.
Thanks for the feedback. Just to clarify — I run Monker or Vision sims on all the spots I cover, even if I don’t show the outputs. When I say things like “GTO would do this” or “this is a solver call,” it’s based on actual sim results. I aim to keep the content accessible while still grounded in theory, so I often summarize rather than walk through every combo on screen. I’m definitely open to bringing sims in more if that’s what people want though.
If something I say sounds like a “random unsupported opinion,” chances are it’s already backed by the sim — and taking a moment to look it up youself or ask for a timestamped clarification would likely show that. I’m happy to include more visuals if that’s the preference, but let’s not confuse not showing the sim with not doing the work.

hey laurence great video man thank you
Thanks, appreciate it! Let me know if you want more HU or 6max content for the next one
I personally play 6 max and don’t know much about HU haha
I also play nlhm but am curious about learning more plo!

Looking forward to part 2.
19:30 table 1 will you have a leading range on heart turns?
Thanks!

Hey Laurence, a mix of HU and 6max would definitely be fun! Look forward to the next part.
yea will keep a decent mix, I had a recent session that is both HU and 6max so that may be good for the next series
