Hey Gary, nice content.
You do get a ton of hands in the 6 table format, but it is not the easiest to follow the action, because the size of the tables is small and the tempo is fast. It was a lot better in the second half of the video when the action slowed down and you went to 5 tables

This video was fantastic. Thanks gentlemen!

Dan Smith i would love to hear more about the topic of how to manage your range in spots like you describe at 21:50
It’s a spot I see the winning pros/regs do really well and really poorly

Great vid Luke. Maybe one of BVB, or comparing BVB and OOP open, BTN flat?

Great vid

Dan - how do you plan in terms of finding unstudied spots
Nov. 9, 2024 | 8:38 p.m.
Late timing but great vids my dudes.
Nov. 8, 2024 | 8:59 p.m.
Justin - I’ve enjoyed all of your videos so far. I think the more theoretical approach is great too.

EluSiVeMark I really enjoyed this video — the way you talk through how opponent ranges and responses is really helpful

Another great video dan

Great video. I would love to see more high stakes reviews, and how you incorporate theory + in game trends into decision making.
In the environment I play in, there are only a few people who play across different formats. I was wondering:
when did you decide to start incorporating PLO into your rotation?
if the attitude is different in the high roller environment, and people play more games?

Callum Ross excellent thanks

Hey Dan,
Another great video. Thanks.
A few questions -
1 - A lot of the spots we are discussing here are close, or at least to me they are close. What do you do when you identify a blunder?
2 - What do you think of GTO Wizard AI vs PIOsolver?
3 - How do you account for exploit/deviations in looking in sims?
3a - Have you played around with incentives in PIO in order to look at this stuff?

Great vid so far.
You seem very confident in assigning ranges to the fun player you iso in this hand around 15 minute mark
Are you able to reveal your thought process around this in general?

Jan Philippi just thinking about this a little harder, lowered a barrier for me, as always I’m grateful for your help

Hey Jan Philippi great video
Here is my first pass on a tilt profile:
Thoughts
- “I got outsmarted, this is humiliating”
- “I can adjust”
- “I shouldn’t lose to these fish”
- “I can grind through this”
- Narrator: “He couldn’t”
Emotions
- Frustration —> Anger
- Embarrassment (even humiliation)
- Desperation
- (after) Disappointment
- (after) Sadness
Physical signs
- brow knitting - tense feeling
- Hunched forward posture - engaged but not purposeful and dignified
- Queasy feeling in my stomach
- (Emotionally) heavy hearted
- Sneer on face
Behavior
- Acting too fast
- Targeting players who seem weak and over-adjusting/mis-adjusting - Increasing aggression, Stationing, Thinking “the opposite” about bet sizes and not giving credit to big bets
- Playing an extra table or two
- (Hard to explain) I lose composure and this leads to inability to filter context

Great first video!

Also, great first vid, can’t wait to see the next part

Hey Justin,
Two questions:
1 - you have one of the most unique color schemes I’ve ever seen for a solver output interface. How did you come across it/choose it
2 - about 5 minutes before the end of the video, you open K7s and get called. Flop 742tt with no backdoor for you. You point out that on the flop, the solver basically doesn’t care what size you use with K7. You spoke a little about reasons to use one size or another. Is there a general process you use in spots like these to simplify, or is it a case by case basis?
Jan. 1, 2024 | 6:55 p.m.
Great vid thanks!

Great first video Dan.
Around the 30’ mark. In the “combination of two ideas” part of the video, you talked about looking for nodes in the tree where you can really put pressure on the opponents. For instance, you pointed out that after small bet IP and BB XR on 952, the BTN should 3b 10% and this is a tough node to find the right plays for a lot of opponents.
I’ve also heard this is a thing in chess - all things being equal make a move that makes the opponent squirm.
How do you “make spots”?
- what are you looking for when you review the solve? How do you find these spots?
- what are you looking for in your opponent? meaning, are these players you know pretty well who have leaks, people you’ve seen commit a big error at the table, or just a player who by tendency will make an unforced error there (unknown guy at a high roller, I guess)?
- is this a thing that you spend a lot of energy on refining, or is it something you’ve always been able to do?
Dec. 24, 2023 | 1:43 a.m.
Great video! Thanks Hunter!
Can you use the incentive feature to nodelock the entire tree to play passive? Or is it just one street at a time?
Oct. 8, 2023 | 7:49 p.m.
Hey Jungle
I would love to see you talk about live reads and how you would adjust on the spot to these player deviations
Aug. 2, 2023 | 4:27 p.m.
This is a great format!
The audio from people playing "poker out loud" is very quiet. Can that be adjusted for future installments?

Hi Brian — I enjoyed watching you navigate the data. It was a great coincidence to see AK9 both ways.
Two things I struggle with in these view of the solver data (and they’re clearly related in my mind)
Taking the aggregated flop reports — the ev and strategy, and then translating it into a betting strategy that seems at least kind of robust in practice.
Seeing how the turn strategy works based on the turn reports. And likewise knowing how each hand plays on those boards.
It seems like the way forward for problem #1 is to start studying an array of flops one by one until I’m building strategies well. And that’s reasonable — i can absolutely study some flops in great detail for different configurations.
But it seems like by the time I get to the turn - problem #2 - that would become absolutely time prohibitive.
Is there some short of shortcut you use that I’m missing?
May 6, 2023 | 7:04 p.m.
Hey Jan Philippi, great video.
How do I get better at recognizing what state I am in?
How do I get better at recognizing opportunities to find more presence and focus?

Around the 15’ mark about a tight range in a squeeze play. “I’m even being a good little boy and folding King-eight suited, 12% of hands… gimme a break.”
This is the first time i’ve laughed out loud in a RIO vid
March 14, 2023 | 3:22 a.m.
Starting the video off straight away with soup-related controversy. Approved.
Hey Jan Philippi you asked about supplement regimens.
The two I use are
- theanine
- a seasonal affective disorder lamp to start the day if I can’t get outside or it is dismal
