Regarding low limit hyper-turbos:

What is the most effective way of calculating how much i should be min-raising with 20-25BB effective stacks if i know the % the opponent is folding/flatting/3betting pre-flop and folding to my cbets on all streets? (i mean is there any (free) program to calculate this easlily or must i do it manually?)

Once you throw flatting into the mix things get more complicated. While you can find the most profitable min-raising frequency if your opponent is only 3-bet shoving or folding, you can't easily find the EV of a hand versus an opponent that is flatting X% of hands since postflop play is far too complex. You shouldn't worry about that though since...

You should be opening a large amount of hands in the small blind, 90%+, since most players at low limits, even regs, likely aren't playing enough hands out of position and, even if they are, the average opponent is folding to continuation bets quite frequently. The only time you should be tightening up your opening range is against a very specific type of opponent: one who 3-bet shoves and attacks limps wide.

Hey,

I am new to hu sngs and I was doing some math to improve my preflop reshoving game.
I created a spreadsheet that shows me the EV of reshoving against a BU minraise. I just want to check if my math is right or if I have any logical errors in that formular.

The input data is:
- Stacksizes(inc posted blinds) (Hero_SZ, Villain_SZ)
- Blinds (SB, BB)
- SB opening range (SB_O)
- SB calling range vs shove (SB_C)
- EQ of my hand vs the SB calling range (EQ)

I did split up the EV calculation into three cases and then added up those:

1) Villain folds to the shove

P(fold)= 1-(SB_C/SB_O)

EV = P(fold)* (Hero_SZ+2*BB)

2) Villain calls the shove and we win

P(win|call)= (SB_C/SB_O)*EQ

EV= P(win|call) *2(min(Hero_SZ,Villain_SZ))


3) Villain calls the shove and we lose

P(lose|call) = (SB_C/SB_O)*(1-EQ)

EV= P(lose|call) * 0


After I added those cases up I do have calculated my expected stack size after my shove. I then need to look if the EV is greater than Hero_SZ-BB to know if shoving is better than folding.

I hope somebody looks over it and gives me feedback

I was playing on both Stars and iPoker network earlier today. Stars games were working fine, iPoker had me d/c . One of the flips were at like 150/300BB and I had maybe 4BB left. The other flip we were even and I happened to have QQ and won. The 3rd game worked for a couple hands at 200/400, I won a big pot to be at like 1800 chips vs 1200, and then the site stopped working and I got blinded out.

I took video footage of the iPoker network not working, and showing that my Stars tables were still going. If it's not my internet connection, is the site liable to repay me for this? Do the terms and conditions of poker sites cover faulty internet on their part?

Thank you
It looks a little bit better than my chart :P

iso there limps for value, raise with your value hands, cbet when you have a hand

You don't really have enough of a sample size to say one way or the other, but the orange line is the only one that matters.

I saw a hand on chadders hyper turbo video pack, and didnt understood how it is +ev. Hopefully someone can help.

Blinds 10/20. SB bets $40, we call with Ad4h

Flop: 2h4d5c
Hero checks, SB bets $40, Hero raises to $460 (All-in)


Why we shove? I see that there isnt much 5's on the villain range, but there should be plenty of pocket pair's. I feel that shoving we only get called by the top of villain range (67, A3, pp's, maybe we can find an A5 or A2).

Edit: I thought a little and saw that we have a good a equity vs villain top range




So we have 30% equity agains villain top range. I guess it's safe to add more 10% equity from other not very good calls that the villain make in this stop.

Maybe this plus our fold equity is what make this c/rai profitable, i'm not sure i found the answer, would be nice if someone with more experience could confirm?

Things you need to take into consideration are, equity vs his calling range (as you did), how often he will fold (which is very important since it will substantially affect the EV of our play) and how often we could go to showdown and be good. The latter is what makes our play somewhat of a protective one.

Your goal is to achieve a higher EV than folding (if it is possible), if you just call and fold turn or call again ott and fold river you will be losing a lot of chips. Your last option is raising, even if it might seem to yield a negative expectation, as long as it is better than folding and calling you're a good to go.

?

Amazing! I think i got it now!

Really thanks for your time ynkgg. GL on the tables

Hey I just started to use table ninja2 but for some reason it keeps closing my rematch window, afaik I don't have anything selected asking it to do this, any ideas anyone?

Anyone fancy a few games on stars $7 turbos tomorrow send me a pm. I'm thinking we both do a hh review help us both improve. Prob about 1pm gmt. Cheers.

Hi there,

I have a question about a play I often do in HU HT, I shove over a limp with small Aces and small Kings..is it a mistake? or maybe it is a mistake around 22-25 BB risking my chips for 20 or 40..I feel confused about that play so your arguments are welcome

Thank you

Hi!

What's your opinion about table scanner programs(if its good, which one)? Is it advisable to use this on micro limits (3,5$) or I had better learn to beat the field with open sit?

not needed

i have asked this many times but nobody seems to answer lol i play a lot of those too

It's in the FAQ. And it's asked like 1 time per 2 month.

Why is A5o included in top 25% HU but not A6o?

You can make a wheel with A5.

im too stupid searching haven't find an answer lol

Well then if you're too stupid.
Of what I read the roi is between 10 to 30%. 30% is probably not possible in 2014 on a large sample but obv you could hit it in low sample (variance). So no need to brag because you got 40% in 400 games.

This is a very newbie question but I need help to find some stats on holdem manager.

what is the name of the opponent limp stat
and the name of the check raise %

thanks

Hi everybody.
New member..
Playing only HU hyper 1.5s on PS
Have more than 400 games and still negative ROI. I know this is small sample size, but still. My EV line is much higher then my current income is and this is frustrating me 'cause my EV line shows I am crushing that limit.
Watched many hyper video packs and red many books (including mental game of poker) but still cant improve.

Probably going to get a lot of negative responses to this question.

I would consider myself a HUSNG "Bumhunter". I play on 888 and look up all my opponents on pokerprolabs.com before playing anybody. I typically will not play anyone with a win rate higher than 46-47%.

My problem is the rake on 888. I hear it is substantially higher than that of other sites.

My question is What is the best poker room for Bumhunting? Can I research the ability of my opponents on PokerStars in the same manner as I can on 888? Would PokerStars be my best option due to the volume of the site?

Thanks in advance for the help guys!
