lol upswing it only has raising hand matrix(s), i'm talking about online tho and for live you can get away with playing more hands/being loose passive depending on table.
The Lab has additional ranges for the majority of spots that come up preflop.
Pokersnowie Preflop Advisor is free and can't be bad.
EDIT: 'matrices' is the word you were looking for btw

Reason: matrix(s)
Is it considered a donk if I open EP, BTN calls, and I lead the flop? If it's not is there a name for that beyond "leading the flop" (I want to do some reading around this area).
What you are describing is known as a continuation bet.....assuming you raised PF and not simply limped. Don't believe that "donk" applies in a limped pot...but I could be wrong.

Ok then follow up question: Is continuation bet position agnostic? E.g. Is it also called a cbet if I raise get called by BB. After flop BB checks to me and I "cbet"?
Edit: And then there is a third permutation: Villain raises EP and I call on the BTN. EP checks to me and I bet. Am I Cbetting, donking, or neither?
I have 8 outs after the flop, to get my percentage, I go 8x4=32.
Using the standard method:
I have 8 outs after the flop:
I have seen 5 cards(2 in my hand and 3 on the board).
52-5=47, there are 47 cards remaining in the deck, out of those 47 cards, there are 8 good cards and 39 bad cards.
Than to my percentage I go 39/8=4.875 and than I turn it into percentage 1/5.875=17%.
Why am I getting 32% when using the rule of 4 and 2 and 17% using the standard method:
Remember there are still two cards to come after the flop, so two chances to get your out. The calculation you made (idk if it's exactly correct) is for only one card to come (the rule of 2 is approximate for one card, and gives you 16%, equivalent to your calculation).

yes, that is a CBet (Continued aggression may be a way for you to see this as it IS a Continuation Bet)

Neither. You are betting. (You are not Continuing aggression as you were passive pre-flop)

How do I use the standard method, when there are two cards to come?
Depending on how serious you become about poker, at some point you'll want to stop estimating and instead memorize your odds and outs in different situations. As one poker author put it, "If you want to make money, you have to be able to look at your hand and instantly know your odds and how many outs you have."
Anyone who has memorized their multiplication tables shouldn't have a problem with this, but if you want to estimate while you work on figuring other things out, it's not a big deal,
When someone says "is villain going to be over-calling or over-folding here"...
Are they referring the over-calling and over-folding in relation to a nash equilibrium/GTO range/MDF or in relation to hero's perceived range.
---
If villain's have better hand combos they can call here with then they are over-calling?
If villain's are calling more then MDF then they are over-calling?
If hero's range is more value-heavy then they are over-calling?

FWIW I played for a living recently and I still just use that rule.
I got obsessed with the game 3ish years ago. I remember it was pretty difficult to play if you lived in the states because it was illegal for banks to process the transactions or something like that. came back a year later and there was at least one network that started processing bitcoins but there were people on that network complaining about russian bots cleaning people out or something like that.
I guess my question is, what's the scene look like and what's changed over the last 3 years? easier to play and jump in or harder? more or less cheating? more fish or sharks? stuff like that.
I have created the following sticky note on my desktop when I realised that pot odds are about ratios not actual amounts of money. I'm keeping this in view while I play to help internalise these numbers:
1/2 pot = 25%
3/4 pot = ~30%
pot = 33%
2x pot = 40%
So on the left you have the size of villains bet in relation to the pot, and on the right you have the percentage equity required to call (ignoring all other factors).

Are my numbers correct?
Hi may I ask how you're calculating these percentages?
