Have you demonstrated that you understand the theory behind exploitation?

Proper exploitative play is an exercise in calculating EV. You can't determine GTO without having an understanding how to do that. You need to able to demonstrate why a strategy is exploitable to show that it is not GTO.

Lol I just wrote the book on exploitative theory...

'Proper' exploitation contains more than just an EV calculation. That's just Level Two, basically. And an EV calculation isn't needed and isn't practical anyway. In my book I did write out an EV calculation at first, but then I realised there was no point in it at all. And so I replaced it with a more practical calculation. I described the natural way that we work out the profitability of our hand by comparing our winchance to our pot odds.

This only makes my point stronger. If more money is flowing to the players, then less money is flowing to the site. Why would the site intervene to divert more to the players, unless it's a business that doesn't like making money? Or, nevermind, we probably won't get anywhere on this topic after another 10 posts.

Can we stop unironically referring to poker as a sport? A game whose champion is a stationary computer is not a sport. The captain of the varsity chess team is not a star athlete, no matter what he tells the babes.

Jokes aside, I am actually interested in reading your book, assuming it's not priced like some of those sham self-published books found on Amazon.

Yeah we're not getting anywhere... There will be a cheap ebook, but this has taken a lot of effort and it is the worlds first complete strategy book so I do have to charge a lot for the paperback. After this is all done, il be starting on a load of play books which you guys might prefer, any of u guys can write one too if you like, they will be easy to bosh out now that I have finished the play making formula.
