How To READ Your Opponent’s HANDS [Poker Strategy]

[@PokerCoaching]

What was the most valuable lesson that you learnt from Brad’s webinar?

[@ChasingPokerGreatness]

I learned that when I'm dialed in, my clip art game is on point.

I really liked seeing the MDA of loose calling range on a dry board Cbet compared to a wet board for a rec player. Definitely seems like an exploitable spot.

Chasing poker greatness- tactical tuesday. Honestly one of the best podcasts/shows to really improve how to think through hands

"I wanna quote a very wise human - MYSELF!" I don't know why I find this funny, but it really cracked me up. Coach Brad, the delivery of your humor is pure gold. The content also! By the way, as constructive feedback, it would have been great to compare the charts of what is done, to what would be *not* exploitable, just for reference. Cheers!

The problem I see with this approach is that we're just comparing absolute hand strengths, instead of what matters for exploiting which is deviations from GTO. Of course when you get action on a wet board like QJT the opponent is more likely to have 2 pair +, while if you get action on a dry board like K62 opponent is likely to have 1 pair at best. But that's not evidence of opponents being exploitable, it's just because average hand strength is higher on wet boards for everyone. The video gives the impression that recreationals call "strong" on wet boards and "weak" on dry boards, but in terms of deviations from GTO it's actually the opposite. Recreationals overfold on dry boards (e.g they fold flop with QJs on K62r, GTO call), while they overcall on wet boards (e.g they call flop with ace-rag on QJTr, GTO fold). So the exploit is to overbluff flop on dry boards (then underbluff turn and river when called), and to underbluff flop on wet boards (then overbluff turn and river when called).

Unless they are stations, continued aggression seems more exploitative when they are more likely to have top pair weak kicker or worse on a dry board. He does make a distinction between passive recs and volatile recs. He abruptly switches between hero being the aggressor preflop to hero being the caller preflop without making the distinction which could be confusing for newbies. Still alot of good information.

I love it let’s let the pleebs learn on their own though

[@cindymadison2580]

Excellent info, well-presented!!

[@stu_gahtz1740]

Whats preflop bootcamp? We have a fiscount code?

[@AT-bw4cm]

The green section of "Wet Board Call vs. Cbet" pie chart at 26:22 does not match your MDA. Should be 39% according to your MDA. I find it interesting your MDA shows recs calling Trash, Gutshots and bottom pair nearly 50% on a wet board. I wonder where the MDA comes from.

[@noThankyou-g5c]

what’s the difference between a loose and tight call again? is a loose call when they call a small bet? and tight call when they call a large one? Or is there a different way to know? like board texture or something

[@stu_gahtz1740]

How accurate can this be if it has them calling more gutshots then open enders? That doesnt make sense. And its not cause it has them in the raising range more. New to studying so im just curious trying to get more familiar with gto wizard and how it can help me

[@josepinero5953]

The volatile rec sounds like rampage.

[@dennisje2925]

Yes i love this guy. Also because he teaches exaclty the game I am playing (100BB cash games). Cant wait to bring my kids to bed and watch this video!!!

[@PokerCoaching]

Enjoy it!

[@shtcoinmaxi1367]

You should let your kids listen to poker strategy podcasts when they are older since the game is so rooted in mathematics/probabilities

If a pssiv rec often bluff the river its not a passiv rec in my opinion. they are not driven by winning hands through bluffs. they are not even aware that bluffing is part of a winning strategy and proftable. they think that the value comes from making strong hands and they love to chase hands and hope to improve and make a hand by the river.
