Thanks for answering .

Since you are going at maths, do you know about mental calculation championships?

Mental Calculation World Cup

So far after looking at indications over the internet and reading some reviews I think I am going after these books:

Speed Mathematics Simplified - Edward Stoddard

The Trachtenberg Speed System of Basic Mathematics -Jakow Trachtenberg

Have you have read these books? From the videos I saw at the YouTube the champions make people using calculators look like turtles. I've just learned about these people last week, they are kinda amazing.

I would enjoy hucash more atm but thats probably because I've played so many husngs that I'm bored with it. Both are interesting/fun at times, husng has more action and a psychological factor in it, while cash suits itself for like 4 tabling battles, which is a lot of fun to. More then anything I like plo deepstacked games. I've only been playing them very shortly but its and extremely interesting game, if anyones interested in learning I recommend phil galfonds vids (bluefirepoker).

Stay away from Quantum Physics.

Who are in your opinion the worst 5 super turbo regs, worst 5 full stack HU SNG regs?

What city u going to college?
What city is ur new apartment gonna be?
About college: Same study as u've done before? Or a different one... I recall u studied math before?
What happened to the forum that u & spams put up and never brought public?
Any small chance u ever host a 'bootcamp' in The Netherlands or anything like some of the husng guys do lately?
Will your ambition in poker, now that ur going to college, be the same as last years?
Do you think Turbo husng's will die eventually? Or will they be profitable to medium/medium-high stakes for a few years?

And finally, gl with college! sounds like a healthier life style instead of 12 hours a day of poker.

a broad question:

30bb deep:

Hero is OOP and defends versus a minraise. Villain is raising 70% of hands PF. Hero knows that villain cbets 100% flops.

Flop is J82r. Hero has only two options; leading and c/r'ing. This is extremely broad question, but does Hero ever lead here and if so, when?


Thank you for doing a well!

If you have to judge your own game in weighing your strongest points, would it be the '''feeling'' part, or the ''heybude'' part.
Its interesting you bring that up. I used to play all on feel but others would dominate me at it (and I just can't win those ****ing click it back wars from anyone, especially you). This made me realise I had to get into analysing ranges very carefully and the appropriate actions against them. Naturally I switched from all feel to trying to completely ban it out and play like a computer, and even fish would crush me.

I think I finally found the right balance but tbh I think I have a lot to improve on both. The feel part is harder but as for the ranges (its obviously a wider aspect then just that but I'm calling it ranges for simplicity) someone like heybude is easily better at it then me, and so are dozens of cashgame players (cash is basically all about that). When you think of how a perfect computer who solved hunlhe would play you kinda hate yourself because its not that hard to work on an exact analysis of every range in every spot.

I wouldn't be that good at it but funny you mention this specific topic, for I saw the documentary "the boy with the incredible brain" this morning: http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...6365903075662#

you've mentioned computers a bunch. do you think that someone could write a bot that could be unbeatable for superturbo's? i think the obvious answer is yes so do you think this could happen withing the next 5,10,20 years?

what about deep HUCASH?

Thank you for doing a well!
I don't think you should have a leading range on this board. If villain raises 70% your defending range should connect well with this board and if he still cbets 100% then that's exploitable by check-raising a lot of bluffs. With your real hand you don't really want to lead because he's gonna cbet 100%, so you want that bet, and as for your bluffs, check-raises are much harder to fight back against then leads. Its only when villain checks this board a lot that you want to incorperate a leading range.

Mathematics and physics this time, in Utrecht. We never really launched that project, I don't think the idea was that great and we were both playing much more then creating content, and at some point spamz just disappeared.

With college I will have some higher costs every month, I expect and hope that will motivate me to play poker solely as a job.

I'm not sure how turbo's will develop, but superturbo action is great and thats easy to learn so you can always switch to that.

Thanks and gl to you to

Had saw this video some years ago, pretty interesting stuff.

I'd say there is less than 1 in 20 chance of him becoming world champion with his actual level in any of the skills he is popularly know for.

I'd give you have more than 1 in 5 chance of being better than him at every thing he is acknowledge for being skilled, given good guidance and smart effort. Although they might start saying you have autism afterwards .

By the way, it was destiny that you had saw this video today .

Thanks for answering this little mystery! Actually the only rational justification I could find for R-Q and you to do this was the lower stack to pot ratio you get when you raise to 45. I have watched R-Q play a lot and he only does it if it is < 10% of the eff. stack size otherwise you are pot committing yourself.

I would consider taking offers but I've never had any and never put effort in finding any.

Who is your friend?

1. What was the reason for your huge downswing at Pokerstars?

2. Could you elaborate a bit on why you consider R-Quaresma/Skaiwalkurrr to be the best superturbo player?
I have noticed he plays a very different style from Serkules who has a lot less variance in his results. R-Q seems to take every little edge with respect to shoving ranges because he seems to shove a lot more frequently than other players. As a consequence his results have a lot of variance but he puts more volume than most players (probably he is the most capable superturbo multitabler) so it irons out the variance.

3. How did you study the game? Most valuable resources (books, videos, software, etc.)?

I've been watching that documentary, pretty incredible, I wonder how good that maths wiz would be at poker. I wonder if his skills would convert to playing
