There are no turns/rivers available for 200BB play yet and you have the box checked for "play from flop to river" which is why you're not getting a response. We are working on a pop up or display that explains this and I suspect it will be implemented as part of the next update to Vision.

Hi Friend -
200BB solutions are available within Vision. Can you elaborate a bit on what you're trying to do and I can see if I can either guide you or point you in the right direction?

Hi phillocos -
I'll take a stab at a couple of these...
I originally thought that Villain’s range is always capped when they only call, but the image suggests that they can call and still be uncapped. Or is Villain only capped when their strategy allows for a raising range and they don’t build one?
An example of this came up in a Luke Johnson video that I reviewed today and is set to be released soon. Specifics aren't all that relevant other than CO opens, BB calls. Flop KK7r. BB checks, CO bets, BB raises, CO calls. Luke discusses how the CO is uncapped in this situation despite calling as there is no hand that should 3B the flop.
2 - I'm not sure I fully understand the point here so I am hesitant to offer a response. I think each is a factor in defining opponents range and if they're capped or not. Also the definition of "game changer" feels a bit too variable to make any definitive conclusions from it.
3 - Same as above, I'd like to hear others thoughts on it
I'll leave the rest to someone more knowledgable on NL!

Hi Friend -
A) The first of these is scheduled for March 18th 12pm PST. The second one will be scheduled a few months from now.
B) All courses labeled as "From the Ground Up"
C) You can either submit a HH which is usually good for MTT's or record a session and send us the file. We ask that you send your top 3 coaches that you'd like to have conduct the review and we do our best to get it done by one of those three. I think we've been able to get that done for everyone that has submitted footage for review as part of this offer.

Pedro Fernandes got his start in poker at the micro stakes SNG/MTT streets while in college. His transition to cash games occurred just a few years ago and he hasn't looked back since. His videos will offer a mixture of theory heuristics, HH reviews, live sessions, and database analysis which are all things he uses in his own quest to improve as a player. Outside of poker he enjoys tennis, soccer, and chess.
His first video explores the notion of finding unorthodox strategies which serve to keep opponents on their toes.
Welcome aboard Pedro!

Laurence Heads got his start in poker over two decades ago playing NL before transitioning to PLO in recent years. His background in finance helped his analytical mind and he decided to take his act full-time where he plays primarily $5/$10 and $10/$20 PLO as his main game. His coaching techniques focus on data-driven insights and analysis and he's excited to share this method with the Run It Once members.
His first video features a session at $5/$10+ on Ignition and offers a great example of the types of videos yet to come.
Welcome aboard Laurence!

As an exploit sure I think that can work but I think we're still talking about very small percentage situations. I think the larger benefit of incorporating a strategy like I outlined would be simplification and not having to get crazy with all sorts of hands for extremely marginal or potentially 0 ev.

Hi Rayder -
Yikes! Sorry to hear about this. To be clear, the free month of Essential that accompanies the purchase of your course needs to be claimed via a link that is emailed to you upon purchase where we outline that this month is indeed free of charge but you would be billed at the conclusion of this month unless you downgrade your account prior to your next billing date. I have reached out via email to sort out your issue.

This hand is good HU, not so much multiway. It's ~0 EV as a 3B overall as it's mixed for most rake structures and borderline as a 3B candidate. You would be totally fine incorporating a strategy of never 3B UTG without an A. There is no hand within the XXYYY category that is a pure 3B. Agree this one isn't necessarily intuitive.

Hi TopPair2Pair -
Thanks for your interest. Best bet is to email support@runitonce.com with some background information on your poker career along with your results from the last year or so. We will follow up with instructions for the creation of a demo video. Thanks again!

Hi raphayakawa -
Thanks for the suggestions here. Almost all of the improvements and additions to Vision over the year have been the direct result of frequent users like you and it's really helped guide the direction we take Vision. An example of this is that we prioritized HU in lieu of multiway solutions with our 5c product based on member feedback.
The good news is that Vision is constantly evolving and adding new elements. I'm going to follow up with you directly to clarify some of the things you mention and hopefully we can get your suggestions implemented in short order

Simon Draper got his start in poker primarily as an offshoot of his interest and passion in sports. His competitive nature flipped the switch and he was knee deep in playing and learning just a few months after being introduced to the game. While success eluded him early on for a variety of reasons, he found his stride while furloughed during covid and managed to go from $10NL to $100NL.
By the time he was scheduled to head back to work, he had found enough success at the tables and decided to give it a go full time and hasn't looked back since. He's now a fixture in the $500NL games online and plans to continue climbing the ladder.
His first video offers an introduction before diving into the hands and illustrating his thought process and what to expect from future videos.
Welcome aboard Simon!

Some quick math with assumptions:
8 handed, all hands will be raked the full amount (based on the mostly recreational players), 22 hands/hour
There is $8,000 on the table at the start
$20/hour per player = $160/hour + 22 hands * $10 = $220/hour = $380 comes off the table every hour. If you guys play for 8 hours, $3,040 comes off the table,
This feels unbeatable to me even if playing against very bad players.

Rapha Nogueira's journey into the world of strategic thinking began in college, where he honed his mind with a degree in economics. His quest for knowledge continued with a master's in mathematical economics, where he delved even deeper into theory.
His rise through the stakes wasn't without challenges. Health issues caused some setbacks, but his unwavering dedication and performance-driven mindset propelled him back up the ladder. Today, he skillfully navigates mid-stakes and high-stakes games, showcasing his versatility across various formats.
Rapha's passion for sharing his knowledge extends beyond the poker table. Since 2015, he's transformed into a successful coach, guiding students across diverse formats, including MTTs, Omaha High Low and PLO(4, 5, 6).
Away from the felt, Rapha embraces life as a well-rounded individual. A true foodie, he delights in exploring culinary creations. Fitness is another pillar of his life, keeping him sharp and energized. But perhaps his most unique passion lies in the world of art. Inspired by his grandmother, who blossomed into a painter after retirement, Rapha travels the globe to personally experience his favorite artworks.
His first video takes a deep dive on PLO8 and explores the importance of scooping.

Sam Forde spent the past decade in the world of counselling, initially working in high school and then primarily with adults in private practice. In recent years he added lecturing into the mix, leaning into his passion for ideas and communicating these to counsellors-in-training.
No Limit Hold’em Cash has been his passion for several years, but it wasn’t until he began studying HUNL in late 2019, with a group of guys who quickly became friends, that he switched gears with poker. This led to him playing HUNL part-time during Covid — in the chaos of working from home with 5 children under the age of 10 — and then grinding full-time from late 2022 with his main volume being played at 500NL.
As someone who does need some variety in his work, he continues providing on and off input in counsellor education and is now stoked to be able to integrate poker and counselling in producing videos for RIO.
Outside of poker, counselling, and family life, Sam is passionate about Crossfit, craft beer and cuban cigars.
Sam's unique background in counselling provides a completely new angle at dealing with the everyday challenges of competing at the poker tables. His debut video 'Violence at the Poker Tables' gives a look into the type of content you can expect from Sam.
If you can't get enough of Sam, make sure to check out his 4-part seminar series 'Finding New Possibilities' hosted on Run It Once earlier this year. In the series, you'll lean into the counterintuitive, play around with possibilities, and disrupt some of the commonsense approaches we are told to take in the face of adversity.
Welcome aboard Sam!

Hi WATCHTHEEE
My colleague Matthias explained the logic behind the first question that you raise.
For the rest it depends on how you practice, in Streak you always have a single spot for each hand, but in Practice you can use the "Continue" option if the hand can continue, or even more recommended is the "[x] Play from Flop to River". This way you will get a hand on the flop and can play it to showdown if it goes there.
Or you can also open a situation in Learn mode, go to practice over the top right icon and then check the "[x] Play from Flop to River"
This way all checkboxes for this spot will be auto selected for them (you can then pick the desired starting ACTIONS for the flop starting node

Alexandra Fagaras got her start in poker during her first year in college where it was primarily the easiest way for her and a friend to obtain free drinks at her local casino. It didn't take long for her to learn the game and realize that there was potential for much more than a casual place to hang out. When he plans for a Masters degree fell through she started playing online and worked hard to climb from the micros to $500NL which serves as her current home.
Her theoretical approach mixed with her passion for psychology have benefited her tremendously and are on full display in her first video which covers 4 bet pots.
Outside of poler she tries to spend as much time away from the PC and enjoys hiking, yoga, and any activity that involves the outdoors.
Welcome aboard Alexandra!
