i don't understand the reference to usury

shut up betgo

Daniel-Not sure why, now it has HJ opening up 23.4% (see above), but the calloff range vs button shove is still 77+, ATs+, AQo, KQs

Thanks, Richard for sharing your experience.

The hand at 18:24, I ran it through HERC with the payouts and assuming HJ opening range of 21.9% (that was HERC's optimal range), HJ should only be calling off here with 77+, ATs+, AQo, KQs. I ran it because the KQo seemed a little loose to me. Thoughts? Maybe HJ is opening wider, meaning button's reshoving wider and KQo becomes a call in your view?

Can you post the FT payouts?

22 preflop hand discussed above "From what I've seem pairs don't really get folded to against preflop 3bets at these SPRs". What do you mean from what you've seen? Is that using some preflop solver? It seems like the reason that you think initial call may be too lose is because there are active players behind, but once there's a squeeze, it's a relatively easy call. Really don't follow the logic yet. Can you elaborate some more?

What did you think of Doug folding KJo pre to the 3bet at 22:00?

I get your point quite clearly. Nash equilibrium shoving ranges assume you shove entire range. Once you remove some hands from shoving range, that will alter original equilibrium you were solving for.

In your whole discussion of choosing bluffs in chopped pots around 19:00, in full ring, isn't there some sense in choosing combos that block our opponent's hands that beat the board (probably less effective in heads up, because so many combos are VPIPed)? So if we are only losing to AA, Kx and 8x, hands that contained an Ace, Q, J, 9, or 7 for example would be best bluffs, and then maybe randomize among those? I'm not sure I follow at the end what you're suggesting makes the best bluffs. I agree to avoid laziness in over or underbluffing, but not sure what the concrete result is.

In the last hand, is it also more plus EV to flat other hands in our range than other options (fold or jAm)? In order to slow play Aa, we need to have other hands in our flatting range for balance, and if we are losing EV with those hands by flatting, then likely the strategy is losing because so few combos of AA that benefit from flatting.

Great video,Daniel!

Id like a more in depth explanation of why in position is supposed to fold top set at 51:05 and call with a ton of one pair hands.

I don't doubt you have a database that shows calling ranges are narrower than Nash, it just seems then that Nash calculator shouldn't be our starting point perhaps to begin with?

i'm referring to first hand.

Realtime (not having reviewed in PIO), what hands were you planning to give up with on this specific river?

Concerning your 22 shove at 21:30, I think it's a mistake to assume that the shove is marginally profitable according to the chart, because I doubt you're shoving your premiums here which the calculator assumes you are shoving for this computation, so your opponent can adjust their calling range to be wider than Nash equilibrium (as modified by ICM effect); as a result, your shoving range should reflect a different equilibrium that adjusts for their modified calling range.

I think you missed the fact in the AT suited hand where you said you should be betting turn with high frequency, that PIO says AT hearts should be checked 71 percent of time on turn.

to the larger sizing, I mean

In the T8 suited hand, doesn't PIO say you should be RAISING T8 suited on the turn, not calling?

In Hand 1, 98 suited hand, you skipped whether we are supposed to check call or check raise flop, no?

Hand 2, your PIO input says you're calling AQo 10 percent of time. Of the other 90, how much are you folding and how much 4-betting?

At 45:55, doesn't he have more incentive to raise QJ of hearts than the other QJ combos to get a freeroll to a flush vs your qj combos?

17:00 JJ. What is our range to flat pre? I assume we are 5betting with KK+? If yes, any concern we are too narrowly defining our hand range against a highstakes reg on one of the smaller sites? I doubt flatting our entire continuing range would be GTO, so that can't be the answer

23 mins: I think I'm normally folding 55 utg 9-handed with this stack distribution. You think that's too tight?

at 2:00, you say medmar would shove 77 pre? you mean 4bet shove or open shove? both seem bad to me

At 20:30, are you actually suggesting check/calling river as opposed to check/raising? Why would we ever check/call? Are you blind?
