29:30 top right, still like folding the KJo? Thanks for the video

Thanks guys. Would love to see more of these.

Great vid, Daniel! Really appreciate it

Fantastic.

I am very confident if you provided exclusively deepstack content that you would quickly develop a cult following here on RIO. I'll leave the naming to you but Trench Marinians seems like a preliminary standout.

Curious what our collective 100/month entitles us to.

My questions were directly related to content discussed in the video. I don't see any difference between what I asked and other Pio centric information you share in every video, other than it might be more cutting edge, and if we don't get that kind of info with the Pro Plan what exactly are we paying for?

Ben,

You mention that you think the computers choose the larger 3bet sizing to make 4bet sizing very uncomfortable.

I also believe this to be the case, and extrapolating, have decided that in very deep stacked live cash games, the larger sizing doesn't serve this purpose, and thus, I have reverted to the standard 3x sizing, despite many players choosing 4x and larger.

My questions are:

To the best of your knowledge, do computers choose the bigger sizings deep stacked?

And, iyo, if our opponents are calling wide ranges preflop, but inclined to make very big mistakes, specifically on later streets in 3b pots, wouldn't any immediate EV of fold equity be far outstripped by dragging them into these uncomfortable situations?

Thanks!

more plz!

Hey Daniel. Nice vid.

No reply necessary, but I would love to see a video of a typical study session. You are clearly efficient with your analysis, and an expert with Pio. Seeing how you set up and optimize your time away from the tables would be very helpful. I think most of us would take a lot away from it. Thanks!

Audio content should be pure strategy. RIO is for education, not entertainment.

As for not adding it without taking away from complete content. Perhaps a more relaxed approach could be taken to creating the content. Creators, when they have an idea worth sharing, could be encouraged just to record it on their phones. Whether 15 or 50 mins, it the idea is useful, I want to hear it. That way, you could compensate them less since the content is much less labor intensive, and the community could benefit without the cost of missing out on the usual higher standard content.

Filter for videos ideal for listening only (More video like this would be useful for those of us with commutes).

I have been thinking about this lately. Particularly in time-raked deepstack NL games.

I'm playing with mostly Recs who are not adjusting their ranges much if at all based on sizing between 2-4x. If it is going 3-5 ways to the flop regularly, is it possible 2x will outperform 4x?

A recent Sauce vid where he was playing NL25 he suggested a very tight opening range was best in high rake environments, but as the video went on and he saw how bad his opponents were he came to the conclusion that even with the high rake we might want to see more flops since the mistakes being made would outweigh what we pay in rake.

My opponents are at least playing as bad as those NL25 players and I'm not paying high rake. So since it's often multiway I'm frequently losing the pot as should be expected, but am I really doing myself any favors by making my sizing pre bigger? I'm not thinning the field, and sure the average pot is bigger, but I'm not having any more trouble building pots when it's 4 ways to the flop for 2.5x than I wouldn't if it was 4x.

So since our opponents are making big mistakes postflop should we raise smaller and more often as opposed to bigger and less often?

Would appreciate any insight here on how I could empirically test this.

Hi Nuno,
Really enjoying your content, thanks.

New to Pio and the trainer, but do you expect tools like this to replace/simplify study within Pio itself? On the surface the info seems much more digestible when you can actually play the hands as opposed to browsing Pio. Am I missing something?

How much has the trainer replaced your regular Pio Study, and how would you suggest someone new to solvers and trainers best optimize their study time?

Thank you!

A little humor goes a long way with training vids. I see and appreciate the effort.

If you wouldn't mind, could you please shed a little light on the ranges you have on the slider above your desk? I don't play much online and am just curious what they are and how you use them while playing.

Thanks!

Hand at 6 min top right, whats your plan for other rivers?
Then 16 min. I find myself c/c the top left more than c/r there since there are so many bad turns when we get flatted. How do you play 3,7,6,8 turns? And as played it seems like rarely win this pot when he bets turn.

isolate weak players, play tighter vs regs. You get to play more pots with weak players, and the good players think you have a wide range vs them. Play a lot of pots w fish; pretend to play a lot of pots w regs

chk/call river. he will have a jack a good chunk of the time. He will bet his missed draws while you leading river only gets value from a tiny range of hands. As played I fold river b'c I dont think he is checking back flop w/ a hand that has no showdown value 89, 95 etc. Also it is less likely he is 3betting 1 of these hands.he has AJ most of time
also this is a 4bet or fold preflop. If he has been active making it 60k preflop would jam his stack and he would be forced into a push/fold mode

easy fold; 4better can't assume original raiser is very wide considering he opened 11bbs. so his range is hands that can play against original openers raising range (22-AA) AK AQ. Since we should assume he is not always doing this w <99 it is an easy fold
