so, you've got AAJT right? the board is 4567J, right? You have reverse blockers to 89XX!
another example: you've got 2Q79, right? the board is AK6K4, right? you have reverse blockers to the nuts (kk) and the 2nd nuts (AA) (and many other hands)! got it?!
this is one of the interesting implications of reverse blockers. many people would suggest folding 2Q79 pre, but look at all the extra information you have on this river with all of your reverse blockers! you can more accurately determine the number of combinations of hands in your opponents range, use that info to run some quick sims, and then make a huge +EV bluff or fold depending on the action! basically, if you're not taking reverse blockers into consideration, there's no way that you're playing GTO!!!
