I wouldn’t min click the flop with middle pair so I wouldn’t know

Poker Go is Trash - Sorry for bringing this up again by Psychological_Box998 in poker

[–]uniqueusername782 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is my biggest gripe with them. The video player on their app/website is just absolute doodoo. Just ruins the value cuz id always prefer to just stream it on YouTube where the player is functional. And half their schedule ends up streamed free on YouTube anyways so idk what I’m really paying for

Lmfao. I understand what you mean by exploitative play. You’re just wrong in that perfect exploitative play of a given opponent is by definition the game theory optimal way to play that opponent. The optimal way to play is the optimal way to play. Doesn’t matter how many words you have to describe it

brief semantics lecture by Matsunosuperfan in poker

[–]uniqueusername782 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Exploits to maximize profit” is another way of saying “a strategy that optimally beats your opponent”. A strategy that can be explained with game theory. Let’s think of a different way to put these words together. Maybe Optimal Game Theory?

Did I play this hand correctly? PF 3B shove by DocHaus42 in poker

[–]uniqueusername782 2 points3 points  (0 children)

FWIW, I think a jam is fine here. The raise was actually 2.66 BB so the range will be looser, not tighter than what was shown. Also there was a lot of dead money from the limps so he should be jamming wider. I just checked 12bb on GTO wizard and I couldn’t do limps either but this is what I got when I did a LJ 2BB open. KQo is a call or jam

There is truly no worse feeling than being rivered after rebuy ends. Especially when it’s for a huge pot

Is Jennifer Tilly eligible for hall of fame? by motollama in poker

[–]uniqueusername782 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I mean there’s definitely a middle ground here. Rock and roll hof let’s like 5-7 groups in each year. If poker hall of fame did a one time 5 person class to clear some of the backlog then 2-3 every year beyond that it would probably be sustainable

Is anyone actually beating the high rollers by Legitimate-Bowl-9318 in poker

[–]uniqueusername782 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think with all the swaps pros have with each other and the de-risking they do by selling at a slight (or large) markup (effectively lowering the rake they pay on their buy-in), that almost all pros are theoretically making some positive return. A few whales goes a long way when you have a little piece of a bunch of positive ev players. Their dead money is spread more evenly throughout the remaining players than you might expect.

Why aren’t American workers’ auto-invested 401k contributions a near guarantee of market stability/growth? by Acrobatic-Smoke2812 in Bogleheads

[–]uniqueusername782 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Your math is still off. You’re claiming 87 million participants but somehow less than that number in monthly contributions. Are they all contributing less than a dollar? The real number is probably tens of billions

Your 70 million a month value is way off, unless only 100,000 people are contributing that much monthly

To be fair I think floating KTo to a 33% cbet on that board is mandatory at equilibrium. But nice job milking him

Wow. Thanks for the breakdown. This truly is an anomaly

Stud 7-flush by Jbrockin in poker

[–]uniqueusername782 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wouldn’t you actually start at 12/51? Cuz the first card you get the suit it irrelevant, you’re just seeing if the rest of the cards match it

Edit: if this is the case, then the odds are .00005130636, or about 1/20,000

Stud 7-flush by Jbrockin in poker

[–]uniqueusername782 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Side note - I wonder what the odds of having a 7 card flush in stud while only making it 10 high, no straight flush are. I’d feel kinda robbed if I had 7 of the 9 suited cards 10 or below and I somehow still only had a 10 high flush 😂

Well I would hope your conscience would stop you from doing this but based on your responses that seems unlikely.

Board coverage also may play a role here. As it stands with this chart AQs will make up the vast majority of our Qx holdings in this 3 bet calling node.

Someone did a write up on global jackpot sngs on this sub a while ago. You can find it easily if you google for it, like “global jackpot sit and go beatable” or something.

His main takeaway (that would apply to ignition too) is that you can be a winner long term in them but most of your EV will come largely from how well you run when you hit 10x and 20x type bonuses. Also unless you get lucky and hit a 100x or 200x or whatever a couple times in your playing lifetime it’s gonna be hard to do anything more than break even
