Hi everyone,
most of the hands in GTO solutions are played in more than one way. How to randomize your action in practice?
Let's say preflop in a specific stack depth QJo will be limp 25% of the time and raise 75% of the time. It's super tough to not raise it 100% of the time. How to decide that it's time to limp? Maybe preflop we can do randomization using suits and it will not effect us much unless we are playing against a bot who will notice that.
But what about postflop, when different suits are played differently or we have only one combo of QJo on later street and it's played in few ways? How to not overdue specific action?

Look at the second hand on your watch when the action is on you....if it's between 0 and 15 limp, otherwise raise. Or program your calculator to generate random numbers between 0 and 1. These will give you the independent randomisers you are looking for.

A less arduous way is to just pick a suit before each session. Say you choose clubs. Any QcJx you limp that day.

Eh it's a small consideration regarding which suits to play...

I guess you can go by what day it is throughout the week or what time it is like others mentioned look on ur watch etc..
