i think at minute 19-20 PIO prefers checking the Aces that doesn't block the backdoor flush draw which PIO most of the time recommend to bluff IP. Leading Aces with a diamond is probably for protection and value extraction whereas the Aces without a diamond is a strong bluff catcher.
PIO picks QJ JTS etc as bluffing hands for OOP OTR when the straight and flush draws fill. This may seem counter intuitive but once those hands x/c the turn and this river hits they have very little showdown value. Since JJ blocks these hands OTR PIO prefers to call with AA, KK, QQ especially the combos that block flushes.
Lucas, thanks for video.
I just think the educational value (for viewers) of "PIO videos" should come from analyzing gaps between opponent`s(population) tendencies (albeit assumptive) and theoretical equilibrium rather than from just reviewing equilibrium.
If we both agree villian is never playing flop perfect then all the content after 10min mark has no practical use thus worth almost nothing.
What bothering me isnt the fact I can c/r flop with 20% range including some NFD on J9x in 3bet pot but rather how should I adjust my flop logic wrt to constructing c/r range assuming villain would 3bet flop w/ QQ-AA and NFDs much higher freq and would fold more vs c/r (than theory suggests).
As played, its more of a "PIO introduction" type video or video for those essential members who cant afford or unfamiliar with PIO.
Sadly, some other members also make similar "PIO videos".
Hey,
Thanks for the comment I disagree with some of your assumptions though.
I think many regs, are using pio and applying its strategy to many situations so you should expect the best players to take lines that match up with pio increasingly more often.
If you are playing against opponents who don't have a balanced 3b range, or cbet 75% pot on this flop than you can exploit their strategy, either by playing tighter or bluffing more, but learning how pio would play it is far more valuable particularly for defining "obvious" situations I.e. The fact that oop checks range while IP bets 1/3 pot with range might seem obvious in hindsight but its not and having the software to tell us the optimal betsizeto maximize our Ev is rly valuable even if our opponents are playing differently.
I would also suggest that while ppl aren't checkraising these spots enough you should def consider checkraising all kinds of hands more often.

Id like a more in depth explanation of why in position is supposed to fold top set at 51:05 and call with a ton of one pair hands.
