But I'm sure you'll find that out yourself before long hah.
I guess when you get a borderline spot like that then maybe you just have to choose the top x% of your range to call with to keep your frequencies correct, even though there may not be much difference EV-wise between the top and bottom of the range you could potentially call with.
I guess a simple example that comes up in fr quite a bit is having Ax on an A high board and being 3-barreled into by a reasonably tight player. You feel he's hardly ever bluffing, but you can't just fold every time. So maybe you call AQ because it's the top of your range and fold AJ and below, just to make it so that you're not folding every single time.

I do 80%+ of my studying using CREV, basically I review hands till there's a spot I can't work out on my own, then I try to CREV it and hopefully gain some insight/understanding.
I'm going to start doing this. I regularly tag hands during a session but rarely look through them properly, mainly because of a lack of understanding of how to analyse them properly. I think cr-ev will help a ton in this respect.

I remember some great photos you posted of hiking trips etc - do you still do much of that?
Yeah I get out in the hills quite a bit. I do a bit of walking still, but I started fell-running this year too and fell in love with it. Most of the stuff I do is locally in Bowland or The Lakes. You're from Scotland right? It's one of my aims next year to get up to the Highlands and do some walking/running. Not many photos but I log everything I do in my thread in the h&f forum:
