RTA is terrible for the game and I wish it didn't exist... still on the bright side, highstakes cashgames and mtts on major sites are 100% beatable for high winrates, same as they always were. The big edges in poker come from exploits, not from GTO.

I think of poker as having two types of mistakes: fundamental mistakes and frequency mistakes. Fundamental are ones that lose you money even if your opponent does nothing (e.g opening 72o UTG). Frequency mistakes (like over-bluffing) only lose you money if your opponent adjusts.

I'm honestly more worried about frog poison than RTA. What can sites currently do to counter shaman-advantage?

Had a poker dream last night. I was playing vs an RTA. It was online but I had to bet with physical chips. At some point I had JJ I think on a low board ott and I ran out of chips so I used red and yellow and orange peppers instead, and while I was getting ready to put the bet in

I was thinking to myself “this is going to be one spicy pot” Then I woke up and my heart was beating very hard, not fast but like super hard. Anyway that’s my poker dream, hope you enjoy it

@DougPolkVids Balanced is your basic fighting stance. Hold it till you see a mistake, then you unbalance to win. You can win with balance or unbalance only, but combining them is the most deadly approach. I'd guess the pushback is a meta thing, balance was over-repped in training for years.

@DougPolkVids I think playing optimally across the board gets harder from heads up to cashgames to mtts as you have more situations and stack depths. So it's a less realistic approach to non-hu formats. Winning fast vs weak players is almost more important to your winrate in those.

Rather than trying to make less frequency mistakes, use your study-time to focus on fundamentals and exploitation. To learn more check out my new course . Purchase today and get Redline Rocketship for free.

@FindingEQ Finding comfort is good :) but find other metrics to judge your hands than the solver approval. Look through the solution and see if given the output/ranges there you still think the play is good. Integrate solver with your experience/intuition.

@max_silver You mean average profit per player? Like sum all men and average, sum all women and average? Both are going to be hugely negative surely... and determined a lot more by the big losers than the big winners.

@DougPolkVids Data's often used so it's like studying a solver-strat but replace theory with something data-driven. If in vacuum balance says bluff, and data giveup, who do the dollars believe? Balance is a big apsect of poker, but it's just one of many. Disclaimer: I'm not a data guy.

@RealKidPoker @DougPolkVids Watching the footage again,it actually looks like Ivey posted BB+SB+Ante so everyone got it wrong.. Either way my apologies for getting the action wrong, Daniel's preflop play was optimal. Anyway I believe the video is of value as most guys sit softer lineups than this one ;)

@padspoker Ahh... the guy going tighter has to finish last, he hurts himself and helps others. The loose guy... I'm not sure, 2 hands of each category is a lot, he might be self-destructing at that point. I'd still bet on him winning though.

@padspoker I think 5 should be a clear winner and 6 a clear loser, with 1-4 in between. But to be honest I'm not sure what "2 pips" means - as long as it's some small amount.

@VanessaSelbst I tend to agree with you (haven't watched). That's just the way poker is these days. Exploitative thinking like you described isn't being developed. Back when you played it was a lot more "leveling war" kind of stuff, these days much more technical. Def leaves ev on the table!

@Joeingram1 @PhilGalfond Phil potting the turn is full polar, so unless river changes something for the value range, he checkfolds 90% of the time after, calling traps and some improved Ax. You might think that improved Ax will never call and then you're left with only traps and no point in betting.

@RealKidPoker @Chris_D_Brewer Probably this one ? Fwiw this only works if the solvers adjust for the fact you don't care. If they stick to GTO and don't nodelock the outlier still loses (apart from ICM inaccuracies that @Chris_D_Brewer mentioned).

@TheZvi @willdoingthings That was the case 10-15 years ago regarding magic/poker. Modern poker is much tougher and imho it's significantly more competitive than Magic.

@RealKidPoker @Chris_D_Brewer Worth adding though that ICM plays tighter than it should by a decent margin everywhere... an easily provable error the way the model is designed.

@Joeingram1 @PhilGalfond The crux of the hand is... 1. Is the river ace going to slow Phil down with any of his turn potting range? (Apparently yes, maybe Vini thought no) 2. If Phil doesn't slow down, will he ever check-call with Ax, or is his range playing checkfold+traps on the river?

@max_silver Blockers become meaningless is the most immediate adjustment. This means you can bluff completely by absolute handstrength. I think most of the rest evens out.

@Joeingram1 Hypersnap. ICM is a flawed model that creates nits. The guy must've been scared by the pay-jumps - I can't blame him tbh. If you're not calling, you should've open-shoved. But you should call and be excited about it.

@crispinrovere @SwipeWright @Timcast @Katherine111594 I'd say poker is a lot more comptetive - people are studying/playing full-time for years, wereas there are very few people doing that in mtg. It's nothing inherent about the game - more the enviroment and rewards that make poker harder.

@yadijavadi @DougPolkVids @CColose Rock paper scissors and poker aren't the same... GTO in poker isn't a coinflip. Nor is poker played as "winner takes all" for the most part. I'm all for exploitative play but you're engineering a situation that doesn't parallel poker, it doesn't feel like a strong argument.

@padspoker A73T when people have 2 sizes on the turn, the lower one is often centered around Tx 99 88 K7 JJ etc. So makeboifin raises small and blockbets vs that range, and river just mix bluffcatch, lots of draws busted.

@yadijavadi @DougPolkVids @CColose GTO play in poker has a large edge vs non-gto, and not so in RPS. There is a lot of value to understanding theory in poker. Balance is purely defensive, but GTO play is much more than balance.

@benwaterman10 @DougPolkVids As I said it's terrible and I wish it didn't exist. It hurts my winrate and RTAs take the place of other human/honest players in the highstakes games. I'm just saying that the games are still super-beatable.

@sonsypack @GingePoker @RunGo0seRun I think @RunGo0seRun just been playing too many mtts. At shorter stacksizes his play is good/standard. Here... you'd only want to do it often if villain over-checkraises weak draws and weak pairs, and I think @GingePoker is doing the opposite if anything. Or rng? :)
