Hi punter, awesome program! I just bought the basic version and really liking it so far. A few questions.... is there anyway to analyze why piosolver does certain things with certain combinations of hands faster/efficiently?
For example, I looked at a sb vs btn 3! pot, on a flop of Jc 9d 2d
It took me a while to figure out why it prefers slowplaying middle set without a club (9h9s) vs fastplaying middle set with a club (9c9h,9c9s). After analyzing the flop raising ranges for both players, it dawned on me that the reason is because with 9h9s we block both combos of top two, Jh9h and Js9s.
But when taking a look at top set, something strange happened, sb prefers fastplaying without the Jd (JsJh) and slowplaying with the Jd (JdJh, JdJs). This seemed counter intuitive at first, because with JsJh we block both top two combos (Js9s, Jh9h) but then after some time I realized this is because when you dont have the Jd, you unblock hands like AJdd, KJdd, QJdd, JTdd etc that you want to raise gii with otf.
But for some odd reason the btn prefers an opposite strategy! Pio says that btn should fastplay with the Jd (JdJh, JdJs), and slowplay without it! This doesnt make sense!
I have been trying to figure out why for the past hour, is there a tool or something that shows/explains why it takes certain actions with certain combos? I'm guessing not, and thats part of what makes piosolver such an amazing tool for top level players, it really makes you critically analyze every detail/nuance
Btw, on a seperate topic, I am thinking of building a new pc to take advantage of piosolver edge.
I know I need alot of ram, should I aim for 64gb or 128gb?
Also, What cpu would you recommend? Does edge make use of more cores? Will I notice a big difference between 10 core i9-7900x vs the upcoming 18-core, 36-thread i9-7980XE?
