For what I have seen, PIO tends to be extremely tight for value on river spots after having bet flop and turn. I believe the reason for this is that the strategy it displays it's playing against GTO and it doesn't expect enough calls with weaker hands on rivers from it. I also think that, in this particular hand, adding a smaller betsize on river after bet flop + turn isn't going to work well because we are completely polarized (therefore, bigger size is best) and we don't accomplish much by betting 8x in this spot either since opponent's range is mostly composed by Jx 8x and missed draws.
great work. But pretty disappointing you didn't cover the bb defending range on the J858 board and blank rivers. Was interested if the bb would ever fold some of his weakest jacks to the overbet?
Hi nuno,
Great video!
At 33:22 you said that the opponent we are supposed to be calling the club combos of 93. Can you please elaborate your reasoning behind it? Shouldn't the 3 of clubs actually be a bad card to have as it will be there in his flop floating range?And why should the caling frequency be different with hearts and clubs?
At 32:20 why are A of spades combo raising less frequency. Is it because it blocks his A high back door flushes, so it's more likely that he has a value hand? But how does it matter, because A highs will not be bluffing river, anyway, i guess?
I think the answer to both of your questions is that calling ranges tend to be very sensitive to opponent range that’s why the 3c seems to be better against overbet (OOP it’s bluffing less often with that card) and As seems to be worse to raise (because OOP likely bet/calls more hands with the As)

Great video! I always feel I learn a lot from you.
Thanks TJ. Hear that means a lot for me!
On the J858J board, don't you think you should add a smaller bet size on the river? Like a 50%? Seems strange to check back with boats.

Nice job. Very interesting video
Thanks Alex, glad you liked it!
Another great video! I'm learning alot going through your videos and PIO work.
Thanks man, really appreciate the support.

Otherwise great video
Hey man, sorry to hear that but glad you liked the video at the same time.
Regarding your question. Yeah, he’s just supposed to call some Jx, mainly the ones that have good unblockers to IP bluffing range.
Very interesting. Much appreciated and keep up the good work

Man, but why is 93hh, a worse call than 93cc, shouldn't they be equivalent.
Also what do you mean by' OOp likely bets/calls with more hands with As'.
Likely because OOP is bluffing more often with the 3h
AsKx works worse as a raise because OOP bet/calls more often when holding the As
