My pleasure brother! The approach you use with keeping the strategy simple with 2 sizing's IP and 1 sizing on flop from the SB is exactly what people need to stop overthinking a lot of stuff. Start simple and once you drill enough, practice enough, and study, you start to understand your "simple" strategy a lot more and start making more advance adjustments into your game the further you understand your strategy. You will understand when a hand or spot is a mix of a fold call check or maybe check raise. Or for example, you can start to construct your own over bet range, your own check raise range, your own merged or polar check raise range, and start implementing different sizes on different board textures with constructing your overall strategy as a whole. All while staying balanced in a theory perspective. You can really start to see through other peoples strategy's when they use range bets on a lot of boards they should be checking.

Some villains believe it or not even at 100NL, don't have a protected checking range on a lot of "should be" range betting textures. You can really start to dial in their game and tell they haven't studied or even looked at a solver after you're done drilling so much. Study like a champion as you say! Couldn't agree more. Understanding how to study and use the solver is key to all of this. This is how you start to get really creative in your lines and start to really understand your strategy from a theory perspective and why solvers like checks in certain spots. Why they like to check raise this spot or over bet this spot. When should I randomize and how should I randomize this decision. It's a lot of fun to get creative and implement more heuristics into your game. Having a protected check back ranges is also gets a lot of fun when villains start spazzing out and blasting off after you check back flop IP in a 3 bet pot. They spazz because they're used to players checking without a protected check back range and betting and taking it down. They spazz with weird hands with no equity on K high boards after a check back on flop and I snap them off with KQo for that 100BB pot on the river. Along with understanding bluff catching, blockers, and natural bluffs, you can become a very strong player very very quickly if you follow these videos and add to them.

I was a losing break even 25NL player. I am now moved up to only playing NL 50 and NL 100 on a consistent basis. Currently on a huge upswing right now. I have increased my roll by $2000 in just under a month since watching your series. Its the drilling and studying your hands after you're done playing. Checking game tree nodes to see what you and villains range wants to do in these spots is what gets you really good. Then, once you run into a villain who you can clearly see is a studied thinking player and balanced, then it gets a lot more fun and interesting mentally battling Villains and figuring these weak and even strong regs strategy out. Throw some exploitive poker in their and deviate time to time, you will be ready to battle hard. Truly, thank you for the knowledge Max. I really feel like I can make it to 500NL and possibly 2000NL one day. Because 100NL on Ignition is full or very weak recs and regs. It feels like a walk in the park right now. If I ever do you make it higher you will be the first to know.

Thank you again my friend.

The entire serious gave me a solid baseline foundation for my strategy. You took my game to the next level by showing me how to use the aggerated reports when looking at flops. I finally understand which nodes to bet range IP and OOP. Or polarizing a little more and betting 66% on flop on different nodes. Also staying balanced and constructing a check raising range against villains who over cbet nodes. Or when they range bet on a 567 board. You can tell right away if villains are balanced or not when they do this. I even created a donk range from the BB on certain nodes that has been working extremely well thanks to you. Very Very helpful info in every part. Also showing me and others how to drill in GTO Wizard. The drilling really does help your game. I would recommend the entire serious to any beginners looking for a SOLID base line strategy instead of just blind betting flops and turns. Very helpful Max! Thanks for taking the time for these I really enjoined it. I think with alot of practice, this baseline will take you to NL500 without a doubt. I'm slowly moving up from 25NL now to 50NL and shot taking 100NL. It's all working perfectly!!

For future videos, I would really like to see you do an over bet video consisting of, turn over bet probes, IP and OOP turn over bets, and river over bets. Possibly even flop over bets however, very little EV difference with flop over bets. I'm really working on over bets in the Aggerated Reports. But, I would like to see and hear YOUR insight and logic on Over bets. Then maybe if you have time, do a "Increase your Red Line video". Look forward to future videos regardless.

Thanks Max

I play on Ignition as well. I was wondering what app, or program you’re using for the randomizer, Hud and bet sizing options all the way up to 200%. It sucks being only able to have 2 bet sizing options by default threw Ignition. Pretty annoying.

Thanks I’m advance
