After a lot of experiments with game styles, I didn't find something better than GTO.
I discussed with so many people and everyone said that GTO it’s better for me.
Because exploit is not only hud stats, adjustments vs all players pool, it is also timing tells, notes, keep track of how many fish are playing and how many have lost or won.
Obviously at 10-11 tables kinda hard to do it all.
I have randomizer in StarsHelper program.
The last 3 months I've been playing pure GTO with small adjustments.
There are spots where I deviate a lot, especially against fish.
An example:
BB vs BTN: A65T2sss bet-bet and faced donk jam at runner runner fd.
What solver suggest to call - KQo with Ks, JT, T9, A4, A3.
I'm still don't understand should i do it or not.
Because everytimes when I call this one donkbet, lose whole stack
I scare to call there even with strong hands like AK-AJ, because so underbluffed line.
But for now I follow the logic "If I would bet AI vs check, I will call this donkbet"
No idea how good it is.
And such examples can be found a lot, where people give out completely non-bluff lines.
Only here I do not play the GTO.
At the same time, I’m not sure whether it gives me benefits or not.
In any case, as an aggressor, I try to do everything as much as possible GTO, but when I defending I make adjustments based on my experience/feelings, vs regs mostly gto, vs recreational situationally.
