Hey guys,
I'm constructing 3-bet defending ranges, and I think I'm on the right track.
Starting with my OR, from where I split the ranges in 4 groups: 4bet value; call vs 3bet; 4bet bluff; fold.
I'm using Minimum defense frequency as a tool to choose the amout of combo's to defend.
Now I'm using multiple sources on this topic, and the different sources seem to deviate from each other quitte a lot when it comes to MDF.
I have 2 questions that would help me a lot of (partly) answered.
1. MDF is based on the RFE that villain offers himself, e.g. cu 2,5x open vs sb 9x 3bet comes down to RFE 68%. Should we defend roughly 32% here, or as other sources say, add 10-15% since villains RFE adds the same percentage during the fact he can flop equity even with bluffs, make +EV cbets on preferable etc?
Long story short, in the example above (when we try to be balanced), do we roughly defend more towards 32%, towards 45%, or somwhere in the middle?
2. Do we make adjustments in the MDF in micro games during the high rake? And if so how do we adjust?
Hope the post is not too long, and that you guys can give me a direction from which I can continue building my own ranges
.
Kind Regards,
Dagobert.
