BTNvsBB Theory Concepts in Single Raised Pots

[@trapeznik]

This one is counter-intuitive to me, Why would we want to block range that is already mixing? Doesn't that mean we will get more calls on turn, and we would rather block the most amount of 100% calls (Kx) and unblock the most amount of 0 EV hands?

@@trapeznik It has to do with frequencies. Look at A6s and see how it blocks A8s and off suit. It’s also blocks A2s and 86s. All those hands are pure called or at least high frequency calls so we get more folds OTT if we double barrel A6s. The lower the frequency the call the less we barrel hands that block those lower frequency calls.
