My question to you guys is if one is multi-tabling, wouldn't it be really hard to do equity calcs and stuff and the kind of calculations u were doing in the vid, *Split*?
btw. a very informative video!! I really loved it. No wonder 2+2 is the best forum. Period!
Thanks. It is pretty hard to do equity calcs off the head. but you can create little short cuts for yourself. For instance:
CO open steals and has an ATS of 50%. He also has a Fold to 3b of 80% over 10K hands
it folds to you in the BB and it is your option. Well just looking at some basic info we see that his O range is 50% of hands and his C range is roughly 20% of that. So we get a fold ~80% of the time, making a 3b with ATC profitable.
These kinds of shortcuts get easier as you go along, and you start thinking of every situation in terms of "k, his range looks like this now, if i do XYZ then his range will look like this...meaning it needs to work 70% of the time"

This makes it an almost exact science once I figure their ranegs. I guess the key is to follow them up and adjust when they adjust.
excellent post, thankyou.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it =) This really isnt hardcore math...in fact, the video is actually more focused on teaching a frame work to think about poker in. It might take some time to get used to it...but it will be more profitable down the line (and imo, more helpful in life framing as well)
