hi
sorry to bother i have a couple of dumb question on MOP.
1. obviously but w.e, the graph 17.1 on page 199, is totally wrong right ?
i mean after reading the text following it, all the lines are misplace ?
i mean even x1* shouldnt be = to y1* has the text indicated but not the graph ?
i know the author might just of put out the graph has an approximation but imo ,after reading the text following it on p202, its pretty badly misplace?
did i misread or im right?
2. i understand on p.203, that to find x1* ( the start of the hand range to defend vs a bluff), u need to find it between the [x1,x0], using alpha calling range p(p+1) correct ?
but let says x doesnt bet out his A( value betting hand), so our calling frequency should be for bluff catching hand (p-1)\(p+1), correct ?
cause we need to add the "bet for value hand" we didnt bet in our calling frequency ?
but if this is right for x, why we are using for Y calling range in a 4 pot bet , the 4\5 calling range ?
if Y has all his hand range when bet into and x knows this, than y would have some Aces hands (chapter 15 Aces represent value betting hands) , so shouldnt y use the (p-1)\(p+1) calling range for his bluff catching hands and not p(p+1) formula ?
thats what i dont get ?
3. btw if x bets, the pot isnt at 4 but 5 when it comes to y, if we use p(p+1) formula, why isnt y calling with 5\6 instead of 4\5 of his range at y1*?
why y use the pot size (P) before x does an action( betting) and not after x bets ( after x bet, pot is at 5 not 4)?
4. in the 4 paragraphs p 202., we try find x1 ( threshold handrange of between betting for value and calling hand).
why if x is indifferent between these 2 actions ( betting or c\c) , it define that the region for y [y1,y1*] and [y0,1] must be equal ????
i didnt see anything in the book until now talking about this and i dont see why theres a correlation
.
i did think a hell of lot on those 4 questions , i just dont get it,
i undertsand 1-3 but dunno why we aply one and not the others, while question 4 i just dont get it at all why Y region must be = because of x1 ???
ty very much if u can help
ps: can u show me why 4\5 - y1 = 1\5y1
it gives y1 = 2\3 ?
6 paragraphs p 202, easy algebra i suppose just need a refreshement ty
