How to construct a Range
Always take into account the previous actions from preflop to the river
Just roughly knowing:
"Preflop: he is calling with broadway heavy, medium/small pairs and medium Ax suited hands"
"Flop: he is continuing with [top pair] [middle pair] [FD]
"Now we know his range on the turn is …"
Discount hands
-> from preflop position and action (limp, flat, 3bet)
-> from flop action/bet sizing
"Define villain's range roughly"
Learn to count combos and ranges
-> do it everyday
-> use Equilab to define ranges and count combos
Which hands are at the bottom of our betting/checking range
-decide which hands to give up according to that
Always think about what hands are in our range?
-we donk the flop, bet turn: what hands can we have?
-> given that information, where is our hand in that range?
-> make decision based on that [GTO]
-> on a very dry board, we may not have many natural bluffs therefore we need to find enough bluffs to balance our value range
When constructing our own range, we should look back at all streets-> from preflop to river
When we play vs a fish, we do not need a pure bluff range at all!
-just check/fold
[never make a big bluff vs a fish]
When we play vs a good reg, we can find bluffs using backdoor draws + bottom pairs
[we use backdoor draws as we can turn a lot of equity]
[we can double barrel multiway as our range is very strong]
*WHEN a recreational player bet small on a draw heavy board*
-> they usually do not have strong value hands [mostly draws or a random hand]
We need to start bluffing in the right spot, in the right frequency with the right blockers against the right players
-> we will increase our win rate tremendously
