Wow this post really tilts me. Why does it demonstrate a fundamental misunderstanding? I’m so curious
I have a few assumptions about what I think you mean, that it’s live poker and you have to “play the player” or dude it’s live poker gto means nothing. If that’s your argument than we’ll have to agree to disagree
Way I look at it, is that the gto approximations from piosolver of these spots that literally are the fundamentals of the game. There’s a good sauce video on run itonce about the hierarchy of decision making he has at the table.
It goes something like
1. How does this spot work fundamentally/ what’s the gto response and how do I maximize my ranges ev
2. How do I think the population/my opponent plays this spot
3. How can I deviate from gto in order to exploit the way my opponent in this part of the game tree
Point is- if you don’t know how the heck the spot works fundamentally, you really don’t know how to properly exploit. Kind of like a kid trying to do behind the back passes when he can’t even make a layup.
For example. Ray saying guys this hands looks dicey on 4th street we should consider folding ott- we look at the results and it says hey this is a 100% call and here’s the ev difference between call and fold. I don’t really know how you can argue with that.
Or anyone itt who said hey let’s check back the river -
Or me early on in the hand when I said yeah betting pot on the river is probably the best sizing.
Then I look at it in pio and it says actually your 1k bet makes less $ than the other sizings and it doesn’t balance your full range very well you should be betting 1/3 pot instead.
There’s been plenty of times I think I know what’s going on with a hand and then after I actually analyze it I realize I had no idea wtf I was doing. I’d honestly recommend you spend 300$ on the software and start using it to analyze some hands you play where you were like uhhh I really don’t know what was happening there. It helped my game for sure.
