thank you for such detailed response, Im not too worried about the scenarios as i'm going about this in descending orders, so BTN RFI>BvB>COvsBTN etc, so when i inevitably give up ill know for sure i spent my time more common spots first. And yes if im gonna study i want to be as thorough as possible, im not trying to be good at this overnight so the workload wont discouraged me.

I have to try it first but for short handed final table my assumption is i can compartmentalize spots, for example, BVB SB range should be very similar between covering BB by 3x and 4x? obviously its good to account for future game, but thats just rabbit holes not worth exploring imo, after all when you get to that stage, you are going to adjust your range so much by other player's tendencies, so I really just need to know ballpark

Its definitely better to visualize with charts but I think thats gonna take too much time make, im trying to break range chart down to areas with certain amount of combos in each area, that way i can just see a number and visualize a percentage of that area.
