Worth noting is that Doug Polk described Kanu7 as a very stationy player. Apparently at the time most people in the high stakes pool got there by being overly aggressive and Kanu7 exploited that by bluff-catching more, so perhaps his call could be viewed exploitatively.

Such a great vid. OTB a legend. I remember reading that he describes himself as a “SSTAG” standing for “Super Solid Tight Aggressive”. I used to write SSTAG in sharpie on my hand to remind myself this is the way. Nothing but respect for him and thanks for the video!!

I think this is one of your best videos, the way it's edited and not showing hold cards was really enjoyable.

5:50 this is where theory has always lost me a bit, wouldn't this just go into an infinite theory leveling war? if the Sb wants to bluff catch with a 4 or 5, so then the Bb wants to bluff with blockers to Sb bluff catchers, now doesn't that make Sb not want to bluff catch with these cards because it blocks Bb bluffs? and so on and so on

@ltsjack

Жыл бұрын

Thing is BB has 54 which wants to shove whatever SB does, BB couples enough 5x and 4x with that to make SB hands like K4, K5 indifferent (since they block both bluffs and value) while a hand like KJo becomes just -EV. Does that make sense?

@matta5749

Жыл бұрын

Yes you are absolutely correct. This is the process the solver is repeating against itself to develop an equilibrium. It can lead to some pretty insane plays like showdown value bluffs where a hand can profitably shove while having less than 50% equity but >0 equity when called. That means it’s profiting by both folding out better hands and getting called by worse hands. This happens when the best bluffcatching hands have low linear value.

@2CardConfidence

Жыл бұрын

Yeah @@ltsjack explained it well - if we look at the SB's calling range OTR, it's basically 3 tiers of hands: 1. hands that block value with both cards - 2 pairs and sets (sets even beat value) - these are called full frequ. and are +EV 2. hands that block value, but also bluffs - 4x and 5x hands - mostly frequency calls, so ~0EV 3. hands that only block value with 1 card or less - pure folds and -EV calls

yeah but OTB was a mosnter regardless of the study man. You can see him doing so much of creative stuff even before they were a thing. He would bet 1/6 on rivers and he would donkjam a flop after calling a 4bpot. He was just THE MAN regarless the fact that he studyed a lot. I think he was just really able to understand things for computers and also from humans on the fly. Today people is really ego aproach and dont understand that solvers were on 2015, but the concepts that we understand from them are maybe from... 2019?. So yeah, even studying with solvers was really hard. He also used snowie a lot I do belive.

sigh poker after 2010 is so dead...

I mean when you constantly get there on the river, yeah you are gonna win more in poker. There is no theory needed to figure out that little big piece of the puzzle. Certain players do it more and when their opponents have almost as strong of a hand. There is no skill to setting up first nuts vs 2nd nuts.

@HeliosDroneWorks

Жыл бұрын

You give the impression that you don’t play often. No one “constantly” gets there on the River over a large number of hands. There is skill in getting max value in some occasions in second vs first nuts. Particularly on turns and rivers. In very rare cases does nut flush vs second on the flop. Many players are careful with the nuts and large bet sizes on flop and turn. It’s critical to keep a villain in the pot when having the nuts

that your solver has KJo X/Fing 44% very obviously shows that you haven't let the solver run long enough and this whole solve is absolutely useless

'completely un-capped' would mean they can have KK. which they clearly don't. So the maker of this vid really is quite clueless about GTO.

Instead of overtalking what the solver would do, it will be nice if you at least show us the hand. Trust me 90% of people here prefere to see the whole hand istead what the solver would do in any line. This solver nerdness is annoying

This just looks like a fish play. Bet bet hit and shove. Betting with 5 high and rivering the nuts. And also calling preflop with 5 high. In a live game he wouldn't do it out of sheer embarrassment turning those 2 cards over to claim the pot.
