Here are a few interesting pieces from the article:
Let's say you're playing a 9max game, folds to SB who opens any two. Their frequency adjusted range looks like this:
So in other words, applying this strategy to a (non-bunching) randomly dealt hand will result in the same relative hand frequencies as opening any two cards with bunching.
It's also interesting to observe how the deck distribution changes as more players fold. For example, in a 9max 7.5bb push/fold game we can see how many of each card we expect to remain in the deck after it folds to us in the SB:
Anyway, check out the full article for more detail. Let me know if you guys have any questions!
