Hi,

Over in "Books...", there's 2 month old posts with a couple threads without replies. So, I apologize if I offend/step on toes of anyone.

I'm finding chapters in books and website articles regarding hand ranging. None are really impressing me.

Does anyone know of any books/vids/audible that has some truly insightful expert level thoughts on strategic hand ranging?

Thank you for any help you have.

Again, I'm sorry for posting here, but more eyes means better answers.

Thx agn

Can you elaborate a bit? What exactly is a "truly insightful expert level thought" on ranging opponents?

In general, I rely on my knowledge of equilibrium play as a baseline, and then adjust the range based on the profile of villain + situation in game.

Not sure what equilibrium play is, but am open to hearing about it.

I'm wanting to get better at the hands that are not the nuts but solid. Reading villains to know if I should/not bet/raise/fold @ flop, 4th, 5th. Things to look for, be aware of when it comes to middle of the road hands that can still win.

I guess what I'm looking for, is something like a better method to narrow one's range appraisal of villain(s). Maybe, you purposely low bet and villain 1.5x your bet, and board is 9c 10d 3c. You hold 10c 6c.
Looking for a way to determine thru betting and your above to narrow down if villain has higher Club than I. Like Jc Xc bc betting is mild as opposed to over top like with an Ac Xc.

Is there a place or better term to look for regarding this?

Thank you for taking the time.

U can't really be taught how to gage and narrow down ranges, u have to do it urself and learn thru repetition.
Equilab is a free download, play around with it, try 4bet and 3bet pots first, less combos to deal with. Grab a notepad and a pen and have fun.
