Regarding hand 4: I believe a big portion of the driver behind turn barreling on turn pairing in 3bps is related to how many overpairs we have, which we are incentivized to barrel to get thin value. Even though the frequency of IP trapping affects the equity of our overpairs I would expect that the overpairs always retain enough equity to value bet turn for small and its just a matter of how frequent they are in our range.

For example I would expect more barreling on QT6sQx since now we have AA/KK to barrel for thin value instead of just AA on KJ6sKx. Same for JT6sJx I would expect even more barreling since now we have AA/KK/QQ that want to get thin value, etc.

Who said the only way to use a solver is to play gto? :)

How much have you used monker to study plo8?

Hunter Cichy You can do whatever you want on the flop I agree, my entire point which you don't address was "I think that on flush completing turns, Villain's range is now so strong that I only want to bet flushes for value and unpaired flush blockers (flush draws). I don't want to bet sets or two pair or over pairs or TPTK+NFD." is theoretically incorrect. You can play that strategy if you choose but it should have exploitative reasons attached to it

Hunter Cichy take care is a classic album but now you can continue

"When you start to polarize right away, now you have more license to go big when the flush completes on the turn"

This isn't correct. The bigger we bet on flop the higher EV the draw completing turns are for OOP. When basically the highest EV turn in the deck comes for OOP (he should be donking a lot), this is the exact reason NOT to be piling money into a range that just improved a ton. Assuming your opponent wasn't playing a donking range, the prefered turn size is ~b50 to allow your to value bet the hands that you have a near exclusivity in, overpairs and sets, and generate indifference to OOPs Jx. If you b100 the turn OOP can just continue his pair+fds as his weakest continues. The primary line on this runout for tripling would be b100/b50/jam.

If you were to bet small on the flop, the preferred turn size is bigger relative to the pot than after betting big because the equity of your overpairs and sets is greater facing a wider range.

In the ATs 3BP hand - the reason that solver is using b10 as OOP size in river probe line is because OOP has KK/KQs pure in this line and IP has QJ pure in this line so by using b10 you get ranges to interact in this part of the range where you have the advantage. Since most Ax is jamming turn the hands that are clearly worth all in are only AA/QQ which check again frequently for obvious reasons.

If you're serious about improving in PLO, I can't recommend Cory enough. These days obviously people aren't looking to books as a medium to learn poker from, but this one is worth picking up. No one is better at distilling complex PLO concepts into actionable strategy heuristics. While I hope my opponents aren't fortunate enough to reach this content, I would recommend anyone at 200plo+ to give this a read. It will not only inform your current strategies, but more importantly it will inform your current and future approach to studying PLO, which is invaluable.

You are to PLO MTTs what Drake is to music. Beautiful.

Solver methodology video would be great!

Great footage as always

Hey Boss,

These videos of you working with Vision are straight money.

Like in the dark for the cute new picture

With Garrett raising to only 2.5x preflop and no rake I'd imagine that Robl would be getting in there with this 76o combos. He'd likely be check raising these combos much less often which would then give him ton of straights on the turn even though the suited 76 is heavily discounted.

Biggest lesson from this video is you're never too rich to not pay for Microsoft Office.

Can tell you've been in the lab heavy. Been really enjoying your videos!

Great video and congrats again.

Approaching goat video maker status. Appreciate all your work.

Thanks for the tips

I would have never thought that a sim would think its a fold since it shouldn't have to deal with domination issues as there won't often be higher Qx/Jx in btn 4betting range. I suppose the sim figures most people over defending vs 4bets in this spot and the lower SCs are just added for a bit of board coverage.

@10:50 if you're folding QJs to 4b BBvsBTN what does your call 4 bet range look like in this situation.

Could you elaborate more on the flop overbet on J99 at 19:55. I feel like it doesn't make sense on this board because blind vs blind our opponent should have a lot of 9x and huge bets just isolate your range vs that part of his range.
