Also at 32:00 the rationale for not jamming our 16bb from BU is that the SB and BB will collide often, and the solver deems hands as strong as K9s-KQs/A2s-A8s/22-55/QTs-QJs etc -EV jams. Does that mean you just open fold them? Or should we raise fold? If we're raise folding then there will be no more collision effect between the blinds. Could you shed some light on how we should construct our range here as BU?

At 3:20 you're reasoning for checking back is that you dont want to face check raises. However on the FT bubble with ICM there will generally be much lesser x/r going on, and much more calling. Probably even overpairs and many other strong hands will continue by calling. 7x needs protection from lot of overcards, and should we in fact face a x/r it would make for an easy fold. Thoughts?

what a fantastic video - especially the QT hand example showing 26% in chipEV, 19% on F2T and 14 on the FT helps illustrate how ICM works over the course of the tournament :)

At 19:20, can you go for a block-bet otr, maybe 25-35% sizing? he definitely has worse hands which can call us (AT, KQ etc), and we can comfortably fold to a raise, especially given the profile of the villain.
The drawback of this strategy could probably be that we dont want to bluff for this sizing at all. Since we're playing against a rec, could this be a profitable exploit?

Wow, what a legendary hand! One for the records. Such a privilege to witness this beauty broken down by the GOAT Sam Greenwood, who not only spoke about the math, but also the meta game which was prevalent in the decisions.

NoKing Yes that is correct - PIO displays significantly inaccurate results (even for just flop strategy) if turn/river betting action is not given.
FaceMyAlterEgo - perfectly said!

Didn't understand your conclusion on the KK on A-J-7 FD board. In general against population, betting big/checking will make more money than betting range small 100%?

Amazing video series!
At 15:30, you say that you want to have some aces in your defending range, but this particular hand plays better as a shove. Could you please expand on which suited and offsuit aces you defend there?
in the last hand, is the reason that the solver is piling in 3x pot otr that we haven't given a bigger bet sizing option on the turn, or is that just how the spot works?
