River Calldown IP Analysis #1

Hero raise UTG+2
BB calls

Flop: [T75]rb
Hero bet 1/3
BB calls

Turn [5c] backdoor FD
BB checks
Hero bet 1/3
BB calls

River [8c] backdoor completes
BB donk all-in for 2/3

Range Analysis:
Considering the fact that villain calls twice and donk bet the river
-we can assume he does not have any bluff in his range...
-> there is no possible bluffs that would take this line therefore we can comfortably fold 100% of our bluff catchers and only call with the best value hands.

His range consists of only flushes, trips and boats...
We should fold our AA here as he cannot be bluffing in this spot
[LOOK FOR SPOTS WHERE VILLAIN HAS NO BLUFFING RANGE AT ALL]

The best players are the ones that can avoid the most marginal spots, avoiding the most negative EV plays and consistently making +EV plays PREFLOP -Open raising following the charts for 30bb, 20bb and 15bb (MTT Mastery) Power-Equilab's Range Factors to consider to open wider/tighter than the charts: Open wider: 1) Weak players behind + in the blinds 2) Whales/punters in any position behind 3) Big bounties behind 4) Big stacks playing at the bubble (ICM PRESSURE) Open tighter: 1) Regs behind + in the blinds 2) Loose/aggressive players on CO or BTN -vs players that are 3betting us alot, we need to have 4bet shoving range in order to fight back against their aggression Deeper stacked, we tend to favor more implied odd hands whereas shorter stacked we favor blockers and high card type hands Opening Sizes 1) If the blinds are very shortstacked >10bb - we want to raise 2.5x+ in order to prevent them from defending junk Blind vs Blind 40bb+ - we raise 4x 15-40bb- we ra...

Max Value Rules

Preflop Rules 1) Open shoving 15bb or less: always use the charts 2) Reshoving/Calling Reshoves: use chart vs CO or later 3) Opening from all positions: use the opening range charts except: - having very aggro opponent in the blinds (open tighter) - ICM pressure (may play tighter or looser depending on your stack sizes) 4) Always open to 2x BB except SB vs BB where we open to 3.5x BB -deeper stacks (50bb or more) we can make it 2.5x or 3x 5) With less than 40bb stack, our 3bet value range is always JJ+/AKo at the minimum vs any opponent from any position 6) Never flat any hands except strong pocket pairs and premium suited broadways from all positions except BB, SB, BU and CO - follow the flat/3-bet charts Flop Rules 7) When heads-up and IP as the PFR: c-bet always with 30% pot with 100% of our hands - except when board favors opponent too much (AKs vs BB on 567ddd) 8) When OOP as PFR: c-bet any draws, strong top pairs or better check/call weak top pairs and...

MAX VALUE COURSE

Poker Maths Learn the approximate 10-50% opening range and what it looks like -if villain shows opening 63s from MP: we can assume they're opening 50% of hands thus we can use this information to exploit them Poker is about winning the most/losing the least with medium/weak hands Facing a 5bb all in preflop: total pot is 7.115bb (including antes) and we're in the BB -we need to call 4bb to win 11.115bb therefore we need roughly 34% -therefore we can call all in very wide In poker it is not about the immediate amount of money won, but rather the amount won added up in the long run. Our goal: to make the most positive EV plays as possible which will result in making more money in the long run Exploitative Approach (always play this) -putting opponents on precise ranges -adjusting play in game for max value -ability to fold big hands GTO Approach -only play this strategy vs unknowns that we do not have information on -play this especially with shortstacks ...
