I think the book is pretty much based on his 10-week-transformation course on the Mastermind.. a lot of GTO stuff, even some flop examples are the same I think.
But when you read it, take notes for every single chapter. My PLO word blueprint has over 30 pages now. I took notes from all kinds of sources for every subject (SRP IP, OOP etc.).. I think its good for remembering things Ive read, like in school.. Overall, I think for everyone whos a PLO beginner, this book is the nutz! (for that price tag.. given that Mastermind costs 100$ per month, Vision costs 130$, RIO Elite also 100$)
When he writes stuff like.. "we should only call 11% of AK**ss of 3bets in this position..", thats for micros not really applyable because people play waaay different. When he talks about small stakes he really means PLO25-100, everything below, I think we need to focus on the basics and forget about "the optimal gto betting frequency".. The book gave me a fundamental unterstanding of PLO (e.g. Strength Buckets and Equity)
I also started a Word document for the Run It Once course, lets see how many pages that will be
I'm looking for hands now to post..
Main Preflop weak villain at Micros:
- Limp/Call (mostly)
- Limp/Fold (rarely)
- Limp/Reraise (rarely)
- 10-20bb Stack@ GG
Main Postflop weak villain at Micros:
- Donk 1bb/Call Raise (mostly) SRP and Multiway
- Donk 1bb/Fold (average)
- Cbet 1bb/Call Raise (mostly)
But I'm about to find that out and will report how I beat the micros
Regs are easy to spot, decent VPIP ~20 and using auto rebuy. About 1/3-1/2 of the players have 10-50bb -.-
Since GGPoker has this daily bad beat Flip-Out-Tournament, I feel like some 10bb stackers are just trying to get a bad beat at PLO2 cheap and on purpose to qualify. Which I guess could be even a +EV move, since they only invest a few cents for a 1 in 4 Chance of cashing a few dollars, maybe even two or three digits.
