Iain Salter aka salternator discusses maximally exploiting opponents, how that affects the stats that our opponents see, and counter adjustments before jumping into some live play at $.25/$.50 6-Max Zoom NLHE.

Hey man nice video:

A few questions about both parts of the video:

About using the HUD: Do you think we should limit our HUD to show stats from our opponents from the last X hands? Some regs (the good ones at least) will work on their game and therefore change their game with time. How many hands should we filter our HUD so we don't run the risk of having outdated stats?

About overadjusting to the opponents: I see the point in making sure our stats look close to the optimal frequencies, but in your example, there will also be opponents that check-raise way too much and so we would c-bet less against these players and then our frequency would go down, right? I don't think the population is balanced but anyways, will our stats still look very unbalanced?

Another point is that if our opponents are trying to exploit us looking at our stats, won't their stats look out of line as well and then we should counter adjust?

11:40 Table 3- Do you think your timing would make a difference in the player's decision to call? I do think he would call anyways with that specific hand and I know you'll be balanced in that situation since you're explaining yourself in the video. But for the sake of argument let's say you're multi tabling and took a while to get to your action against a weaker player. Would it be ok to not bluff given you took a while and in the mind of the weaker player if you had a clear value bet you would've bet already? Hope it makes sense.

13:50 Table 2- PIO suggets us to use a smaller sizing on this board, 25% over the 55% you used. Did you use the bigger sizing because the opponent was likely a weaker player and if so how would you size your bluffs against the weaker player?

23:47 Table 3 - Don't this specific combo of AQo blocks some of the bluffs we beat like weaker Axs with the flush draw?

27:51 - Table 3 - Isn't this check-raise too loose against that specific sizing from our opponent? If we had stats that the opponent is c-betting too much, should we go for a higher check-raising frequency or should we still call more often given the sizing is quite big?

Cheers!

Regarding the JJ 3b hand on T94tt at ~19:00: What do you/pio think about x/r the flop with this hand? Seems like a situation where in position has a ton of hands to stab and could easily overbluff, also our hand doesn't play well on most runouts.

I really like that approach against what seems to be a recreational player here. the main reasoning is that a rec might bet the flop with alot of overcards that have good equity against us but suffer alot vs the X/R. Also we are ahead of a lot of their continuing range and a weaker player might have alot off the offsuit Tx broadway combos that a more experienced opp would fold
